    But is that what the Arab Jews want?

      Arab Jews were expelled from their homeland (every single Arab/Muslim country) so they don’t exactly have a fond memory of living among Muslims.

      But they live just fine with Israeli Arabs and just as any other human being they want to live in peace.

          Forgive me, but I’m going to copy-paste another post of mine.

          Allahdad 1839 pogrom

          Mawza Exile 1679-1680

          Damascus Affair 1840

          Granada Massacre 1066

          1834 looting of Safed

          And more
          “In 1656, all Jews were expelled from Isfahan and forced to convert to Islam because of a common belief that their Jewishness was impure.”
          “in 1661 they were allowed to revert to Judaism, although they were still required to wear a distinctive patch on their clothing.”

          Meh, if you can call the dhimmi status a peaceful life, yeah I guess.

          Anyway as soon as a Jewish state was declared, all the Arab countries attacked it, I wonder why. So now they didn’t want Jews in their Arab countries, and they didn’t want them in their Jewish country. So where exactly were they supposed to live?

            They didn’t want a Jewish colonial state to start annexing Arab land and to drive out the native Arabs, which is exactly what has happened.

              I don’t think the word “colonial” means what you think it means.

              But just to make sure, what do you think the word colonial means?

              What do you mean colonial? Jews are indigenous to Judea and they’ve never left. All the lands were either bought to Arabs or conquered after wars that the Arabs themselves started.

                Even in the first century, about half the Jews lived outside Judea and it went down from there. And it’s not like they were displaced by moslems. They just left.
