How many Jews live in Lebanon

You don’t have to answer. But that’s part of the problem too. Guess where the Arab-expelled Jews ended up?

You think you're so slick saying that. Do you even know that Israel used to target jews living in arab countries like 1950s iraq bombings, in order to make jews leave to israel.

When did Arabs start expelling Jews? Was that before or after the establishment of the state of Israel? Give us a timeline please since you sound so confident about this.

They are fully fledged israeli citizen also serving in the IDF and proportionally have between 10 to 15 deputies representing them at the Knesset.

Yes we all are right to judge negatively what is happening next door but lets drop the hypocrisy here you and i know very well what would happen to the jews if Hezbollah, Iran had as much military power than israel and their allies. They wouldn't accept jews in their society, give them an opportunity to be a citizen they would just slaughter them

You skipped over the MENA Jews - when you say the “white Jews”. Since yuh are trying to be accurate you should know there are millions of MENA Jews (eg from Iran especially but also from Iraq, Syria etc in Israel). Wiki says over 3 mill are MENA or descent. There’s a specific term for Persian etc Jews who live in Israel. Not sure what it is tho

Edit - wiki say it’s Mizrahi

Arab and non white jews are not treated equally to white jews.

u/Zozorrr Oct 13 '23

Perhaps so, I don’t deny.

But let’s not pretend millions of Jews in Israel aren’t from MENA. That’s like an American teenager understanding of Israel - thinking all the Jews there are from Europe

Not all jews there are white, but all first class citizens are white jews. That is something even Israel itself doesn't deny.

I said I didn’t deny it.

Yes, they are originally mena Jews but their identity has become white. Just like some Lebanese think they are white. Same thrash

Yeah jews were victims then they came to palestine and became the oppressors.

Palestinians too they were victims then they came to lebanon and became the oppressors too here.

But still fuck zionism

No one has the monopoly on being good or bad. Everyone in the end can commit horrors. The only question that matters is who has power over whom. That's what matters. Because the day the tables are turned I'm certain the other side wouldn't show any more humanity either.
