Celebrating Assad regime’s fall, 1 of 9 Jews remaining in Syria calls on Syrian Jewish emigres to visit
Ancient synagogues are still standing in Syria, although many have been severely damaged by airstrikes and looted by rebels; some internal Syrians and ex-pats are cautiously optimistic about Jewish life under the new government
Credibility of Ynet aside, there was indeed once a thriving Jewish community in Syria.

There was also one in Yemen.

In that case, most of them were intentionally driven out. There were even pogroms.
There was a lot of ugly shit happening. Part of it was unfortunately also due to Zionist psy-ops after they realized most Arab Jews didn’t want to leave their home countries.
All that shit probably wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for the British and French doing their divide and conquer shit so well to drive a wedge between people who were living together more or less peacefully before.
Unfortunately all the meddling worked really well.
We used to have thousands. But after 1948, we exiled them all. In saudi, we have 0, and if you are Israeli, you are not even allowed to enter the country (used to be if you were jewish, straight up). In Iraq there is 100 or something. Most, if not all people here haven't ever talked to or seen a jew (Including me) but they hate them with a passion, to the point of even praising Hitler. Hopefully one day the antisemitism die out in the arab world, but it won't happen in this lifetime.
In the whole Arab world there were hundreds of thousands if not millions of Jews being just regular people living their lives whereas in Europe they talked about Jews like they do about Muslims today up until they did the fucking Holocaust.
It was never about Jews and still isn’t. It’s about colonizers stealing our land, putting us under apartheid and genociding us.
