How much hostility was there in the Arabic nations towards Jews before the creation if Israel? How did it compare to Western nations? I'd guess before their land was literally stolen by the US/UN, they were comparable if not better than most of Europe and America, who had pretty strong anti-Semite views, which were all the vogue until Hitler took it too far.
I am Sephardic.
My ancestors lived for 2,500 years in an Arab country.
They left no trace in the History.
Today, no one remembers them.
No one seems to know that they existed.
It's extremely frustrating.
I created a topic about Islam in this forum, you should read it:
http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=78531334&f=119Here is the story of my ancestors (in red):
Muslims have always refused to grant rights to Jews.
In Arab countries, Jews have always been like tourists, unable to defend themselves by themselves.
It's something extremely serious.
They suffered extreme racial discrimination.
And it's against human rights, according to the 5th international human rights instrument.
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convention_internationale_sur_l%27%C3%A9limination_de_toutes_les_formes_de_discrimination_racialeWhat has happened in the Arab countries for 2,500 years?- in the street, people made fun of them publicly (It's like a kind of public humiliation)
When a Muslim parent wants to scare his child, he calls him a Jew.
- Jews are forbidden to own territories
- it is the laws of Shariah that are in place
Jews have no right but to survive.
- the life of the Jews is threatened, because there are murderers
There are a few rare Jewish people who are respected, including rabbis, and that's it.
Moderation is imposed.
Implicitly, it is forbidden to say a word wrongly.
Implicitly, it is forbidden to do anything unusual.
Jews only have the right to survive, and not the right to do creative things (music, painting).
Nothing, nothing, nothing.
Everything is forbidden in their society, especially for Jews.
We were for them a defense tool, and nothing else than that.
In contrast, look at the oath that Napoleon made in France in 1805:Quote
I swear to maintain the integrity of the territory of the Republic, to respect and enforce respect for the Concordat and freedom of religion, equality of rights, political and civil liberty, the irrevocability of the sale of national lands; not to raise any tax except in virtue of the law; to maintain the institution of Legion of Honor and to govern in the sole interest, happiness and glory of the French people.
The Jews of Europe had certain rights that the Sephardic Jews did not possess.
