Sarman you are a liar. From wikipedia While the Allies and the Axis were fighting for the oil-rich region, the Mufti of Jerusalem Amin al-Husayni staged a pro-Nazi coup in Iraq and organized the Farhud pogrom which marked the turning point for about 150,000 Iraqi Jews who, following this event and the hostilities generated by the war with Israel in 1948, were targeted for violence, persecution, boycotts, confiscations, and near complete expulsion in 1951. In the French Vichy territories of Algeria and Syria plans were drawn up for the liquidation of their Jewish populations were the Axis powers to triumph. The tensions of the Arab-Israeli conflict were also a factor in the rise of animosity to Jews all over the Middle East, as hundreds of thousands of Jews fled as refugees, the main waves being soon after the 1948 and 1956 wars. In reaction to the Suez Crisis of 1956, the Egyptian government expelled almost 25,000 Egyptian Jews and confiscated their property, and sent approximately 1,000 more Jews to prisons and detention camps. The population of Jewish communities of Muslim Middle East and North Africa was reduced from about 900,000 in 1948 to less than 8,000 today.

Yeah.. All them Jews WANTED to leave everything they owned so they could flee to Israel and take up residence in some tent in a refugee camp.. Yeah.. you continue to perpetuate the Arab lie.. Bet you think that all the Jews voluntarily hopped in those rail cars so they could enjoy themselves at that "Spas" known at Auschwitz and Treblinka.. What even more tragic is that most of these Jews could trace their history in those countries back further than could the Arabs. Yet the Jews are the ones who "chose" to go?? en.wikipedia.org Yeah Sarman.. Look at all the Jews that are living in Arab countries.. It's all right there in that link... And if you were observant of the historical facts, then you'd know that Arab leaders were already planning to evict, if not massacre, those million Jews, even before the UN partitioned Palestine, and at least a year before the Israelis declared independence. meforum.org Come on now... perpetuate the lie... Tell us all about how Jews are welcome in Arab countries.. There are Synagogues in downtown Beirut and Damascus. Yeah.. too bad there aren't many Jews left in those countries to visit them. The Jewish population in both Lebanon and Syria would appear to tally less than 300. And while you're at it, why not look and see if you can compare the number of mosques located in Israel, to the number of synagogues located in the Arab world?? Now who's a racist?? Hawk
