- Israel is a nation of immigrants, and first-generation Israelis comprise only 32 percent of the population.
Integration into Israeli society has been one of its main political goals and, under the leadership of founding prime minister David Ben-Gurion, Israel was going to be "the great Jewish melting pot", but it has come under severe strain almost since its inception in 1948.
"There's a gap in Israeli society," says Karen Amit, an Israeli of Moroccan origin.
"They support the arrival of immigrants in theory and love them but, in practice, the ordinary Israeli doesn't open his arms to welcome them. Research about Israeli attitude towards immigrants from Ethiopia has shown surprising results. On the one hand, they love them and have no problem with them. But when asked if they'd accept an Ethiopian neighbour or their children being at school with Ethiopians, their reply was negative."
Jewish people living in Israel today are largely divided into three main groups: Ashkenazi, Sephardi and Mizrahi.
The Ashkenazim are from Germany, France and Eastern Europe. The term "Ashkenazi" comes from the Hebrew word for Germany. Most American Jews today are Ashkenazim, descended from those who arrived from Europe in the mid-1800s and early 1900s.
The Sephardim are from Spain, Portugal, North Africa and the Middle East. The term "Sephardi" comes from the Hebrew word for Spain. Many Jews fled Spain after the end of Muslim rule there in 1492.
Sephardic Jews are often subdivided into Sephardim and Mizrahim, from North Africa and the Middle East. The term "Mizrahi" comes from the Hebrew word for eastern.
There are claims of discrimination against the Mizrahi community in Israel.
"Discrimination and inequality were always a common practice. Western [Ashkenazi] Jews look down on others. They don't want to grant the Mizrahis power ... They want to fill their prisons with them rather than offering them education, culture and guidance," says Pinhas Aloshi, an Israeli of Tunisian origin.
David Hetsroni, an Israeli of Polish origin, came to Israel in 1930.
"My father arrived the following year. He didn't get any help from the state but paid for everything out of his own pocket. But as soon as the Mizrahi Jews arrived, they started complaining they were being oppressed. They used to say, 'You send us to live in Dimona, in the south while you live in Tel Aviv and in the centre. You offer us poor jobs while you get all the decent ones.' We didn't make these allegations. That's what I find hard to accept. natural justice, in my view, says [the allegations] are not fair," Hetsroni says.
Yehouda Shenhav, an Israeli of Iraqi origin, believes that the situation of the third-generation Mizrahi Jews compared with Ashkenazis, is worse today than it was 30 years ago.
"In the Seventies, there was one Mizrahi with a baccalaureate diploma to three Ashkenazis. Four percent of Mizrahi got the baccalaureate compared with 16 percent of Ashkenazim. Today, the gap has widened to about 12 percent against 50 percent.
I re-invented myself as Israeli rather than Arab. The more you distance yourself from Arabness, the more chance you have of integrating into Israeli society. It's sad," says Shenhav.
Rabbi Haim Amsalam says personal progress often depends on whether your family name is Mizrahi or not.
"I know many people who've reached high-ranking positions. They had no choice but to adopt Ashkenazi speech and physical appearance and gradually adopt Ashkenazi culture .... The melting pot that Ben-Gurion wanted to create has failed, because he wanted to melt everyone into one culture, the Western, Ashkenazi one. Why should I abandon my culture and heritage?" says Amsalam.
Israel's Great Divide explores the deep-rooted tension between Israel's Ashkenazi Jews and the Sephardi and Mizrahi communities.

These Ashkenazi were oppressed in some countries in Europe. They arrive in a foriegn land and decided to divide and oppress the natives. The irony lol
My exacttt sentiments! Lol!
@Ronie Lavon you won
Both
@Alden Buyer Well, to that region, sure.
@Alden Buyer Where are your claims?
Respect to the Mirzachi dude...he spoke the truth....they should have one state from all and remember it is in the Middle East and stop hating their brothers regardless of religion. Hopefully there can be peace.
As a Palestinian, when I see these folks speaking like this, it makes me hopeful. Hopeful that maybe we could see past our differences and set aside everything else and start looking at one another from a humane point of view…It takes lots of guts to admit to that, but it is possible! Peace to everyone Jew, Muslim, Christian and all the people of the globe!
We the jews should all leave and go back where they lives. Free palestine as a palestinian you should know that
That would be nice, but it will never happen as long as Israel is a zionist state.
The world is watching, I have seen the way Israeli police mistreat Palestinians near the settlements in Palestinian territory is like modern time Natzy Germany. God Bless you from Puerto Rico.
Are you safe dude? The comment doesn't aged well
You know, of course, that the vast majority of so called Arab Jews came from Arab countries that ethnically cleansed, them, right?
This article is very distorting! It is clear that the editors tried to show that the Ashkenazi Jews despised and hated the Arab people.
As an Israeli, I also notice that the English translation is not faithful to the original in Hebrew! For example, at 7:36, the interviewee says that the State of Israel was established by secular Jews - that is, non-religious - which is the main issue the interviewee is talking about! But the editors were caught up in the "European" he said and took the whole matter out of context !!!
Besides, there is no such thing as "Arab identity" among Jews! You invented it to present as if the Jews were arrogant to the Arab people!
الترجمة العربية لمن لا يفهم:
هذا المقال مشوه جدا! من الواضح أن المحررين حاولوا إظهار أن اليهود الأشكناز يحتقرون ويكرهون الشعب العربي.
كإسرائيلي ، لاحظت أيضًا أن الترجمة الإنجليزية ليست وفية للأصل بالعبرية! على سبيل المثال ، في الساعة 7:36 ، يقول الشخص الذي تمت مقابلته أن دولة إسرائيل تأسست على يد يهود علمانيين - أي غير متدينين - وهي القضية الرئيسية التي يتحدث عنها الضيف! لكن المحررين انغمسوا في "الأوروبيين" على حد قوله وأخرجوا الأمر برمته من سياقه !!!
الى جانب ذلك ، لا يوجد شيء اسمه "الهوية العربية" بين اليهود! لقد اخترعتها لتقدم وكأن اليهود متعجرفين للشعب العربي!
Well said
There are Arab Jews
It's sad to see a group that has been so discriminated against discriminating each other.
I live here. There are very few Mizrahim who would identify themselves as being "Arab," although I don't mind if a minority of them do so. A lot of Sephardim and Mizrahim are more religious than secularized Ashkenazim.
So Jewish identity is more important, not less important to them. There are also a lot of people of mixed heritage as well which you guys don't address. Finally the rosy picture you propogate concerning Jews who lived under Islam does not jive with most Mizrahi accounts of being Second Class citizens or Dhimmi that are heard here, with maybe the exception of Morroco. Instead we hear about accounts of periodic persecution in places like Iraq and Yemen.
There is no denying the fact that Israelis of Mizrahi heritage suffered greatly and were mistreated
When they came here but their lives in the Arab World were hardly perfect and they will tell u that themselves.
that doesn't justify Ashkenazi chauvinism, does it? Both situations (Mizrahi experience in Arab world and Mizrahi experience in Israel) are wrong, no?
Jeffrey Walsby your last line, off course they will say that now, their whole identity has been beaten out through indoctrination. What di you think they will say. But adopting a culture (European) that almost wiped you from the face of the earth seems sad to me. Where is the pride and self respect. As native North African I would never accept Arab culture as they almost wiped us of the region.
@@samnetzisto3815 You write rubbish! Who are they who nearly wiped you out of the region? If you want to make out every man, woman and child who lived in Israel before the Satanic Balfour declaration deserved what came upon them that is not what the God of Israel spoke with me personally by a messenger from heaven neither is it what is written in scripture. God is judge and all are judged and the day of judgment is upon you and all others who do not love peace, justice and truth in dealing with your fellowmen.
Josephine Mullar keep your God, i dont believe in fairytales.
@@samnetzisto3815 You might not believe in fairytales but you do believe in satantales. You believe everything came from nothing. And you believe water dripping onto rock became the beginnings of human species. Eventually fish became amphibian, which became a reptile, then a bird became a mammal ending up human. Well that to me is more than a fictional fairytale. It is a definite crazy LIE straight from the devils wiles! At least children know fairytales are make believe! Adults ought to know evolution as taught by so called Professors is diabolical rubbish.
It seems clear to me that the original Jews referred to in the ancient religious texts are the Yemenite, Mizrachi, Ethiopian, and Sephardi Jews. You can see it in their faces. They also speak Arabic and Aramaic. This gives me strong clues to their origins. Discrimination is motivated by fear. Fear that a lie has been created and will soon be discovered.
Lol i hope you r joking.
Get a job
@@nomorebs3626 he/she is right
Actual scientific studies show otherwise
@@Rex-ud2do Thats not how science works dipshit, propaganda doesn't get approved in peer-reviewed journals you anti-Semitic hack.
What about the 12 descendants of Abraham? Where is the lost tribe of Manasseh and Ephraim go?
I'm an observant Israeli-Jew whose immeidate origins are from Ukarine, Russia, and Lithuania, although my DNA test heavily points my millennially=distant origins to the Arabian peninsula's direction, particularly Yemen, and as an Ashkenazi from the immediate roots, I must say that Hetzroni's view is totally evil, fascistic, and unsuitable for this country. Racism here in Israel is very subtle and implicit, yet it exists, it's at least moderately influential, and it must stop. This's the reason I refuse to pray the Ashkenazi way, follow Ashkenazi customs, or even pronounce certain letters in the Hebrew their way. Hebrew is a Semitic language and should sound that way, yet its founder, Eliezer ben Yehuda, butchered it with a European phonetics, and I'm honestly sickened by this part of our history. I say we take the best parts of everything (Ashkenazim included) and turn in into one grandiose culture. Enough with this groups. Just fuse. And I must say that Al Jazeera exaggerated in many parts here, even if certain things here are true.
Good documentary.
Looks like the divide is becoming clearer and clearer in recent events in Israel.
_Their enmity among themselves is very great. You would think they were united, but their hearts are divided, that is because they are a people who understand not._
*Holy Quran / Surah Al - Hashr [**59:14**]*
@steve warren Yes, definitely
I'm not a Muslim, I just read the entire surat, and it's precisely what's happening to israelis. Everything thinks they're united, but they actually hate each other
I'm an Israeli Jew, my grandparents from my dad's side are from Iraq, and from my mom's side from Iran. I don't feel any divide once or ever.
Stumbled upon this video wondering what is Al Jazeera saying about Israel-
Anyone reading this - we want peace, we don't take account what politicians and media are saying. Jews and Arabs can live in peace.
most sane people know this , we can see how attatched Israeli arabs in the triangle are to Israel . Israel has many friends around the world and we hope the best for u all .
Come on! I am a Russian Jew who has Israeli citizenship and I lived in Israel. There is the divide in Israeli society. I feel that clearly when I am in Israel. Don't write some stupid propaganda about the unity of Israeli people.
what about the africans there being marginalized and given depo shots when they diddnt ask for them
We will unity one day brother
Din Moriel disgraceful persian right here
I'm Ashkenazi and have many Sephardic friends, and I go to pray in their synagogues, and go to their houses and eat their foods. We also marry each other. We love each other. At the end, we're all Jews.
I've heard this from "the left" too, as we are sitting around in a room full of people from different backgrounds.
Wasting your time "learning" about Israel from Al Jazeera?!?! Let me just tell you: I live in Israel and I'm trying hard to think of a family I know that ***doesn't*** include a "mixed-marriage" of Ashkenazic and Mizrahi Jews.
That is irrelevant. Basically you are saying that the Israelis who are complaining are recalcitrant trouble makers... So even the feelings of Mizrahis must be interpreted according to the Ashkenazi dictionary.
@@AdamSahr-cj4kf oh please. so they found some people who complain. I'm talking about about the widespread sociological situation. Yes, in the old days the Ashkenazim called the shots (for instance) in popular music. But Israeli music today has a very strong middle eastern flavor to it. There are likely some residual average inequalities between Jews of different geographical origin in Israel, but it simply isn't a big deal anymore; it just isn't a major problem facing the country. (Once upon a time people of Irish descent had problems in America, and for all I know the average education of Americans of Irish descent may still be a bit lower than that of the average American of English descent. But it's just not a big deal anymore). And if you won't listen to me because I have Ashkenazi background, talk to my daughter in law from an Iranian family or my daughter in law from a North African family.
Truth is bitter as gall
@@wasimsheikh4616 I'm glad you have accepted my point, but why are you suffering so much from it? OK, the Ashkenzi/Mizrahi split is largely a thing of the past - but why is that fact like "gall" to you?
Berel Dov Lerner ✌️ peace out , thats a proverb. Google it.
Jews did not flee Spain because Muslim rule was ending, but because of the Spanish Inquisition.
Random side note; the creepy long haired polish guy with the rocking horse in the background freaks me out.
Yes, his voice, attitude, expression freak me out too.
he is regarded in israel as a despicable person indeed
Wait a minute.
That was a guy?
What are its pronouns?

Powerful testimony from Israeli scholars, rabbis and citizens. Clear information about the racist, European attitudes of people like Golda Meir and Ben-Gurion. The naysayers here did not actually watch this documentary. They are arguing based on their personal, anecdotal experience, and a total denial of societal racism. Just because some Mizrachim feel assimilated and comfortable does not mean that others do not experience discrimination.
they "forgot" few critical points-how were jews treated in muslim lands(second class citizens,dhimmis),what drove most of them to migrate to israel and abandon huge wealth behind(pan arab and islamist pogroms).they left out the fact thaf hundreds of thousands of mizrahi and sephardi jews have nothing to do with the arabs-jews of the assyriac/kurdish,turkish,bosniak,albanian,macedonian and greek,italian,caucasus,central asia,pakistan,aphganistan,persian,india and ethiopian diaspora,have nothing to do with arabs,and hebrew communities of exiles existed across the middle east long before arabic was a common language(following arab and islamic colonialism).irani and iraqi and buchari and assyriac jews were strongly bonded together,and married with another,more than they were connected to their non jewish neighbours.many of the jews of haleb and damascus,lebanon,north africa,egypt,land of israel,and most of the jews of the balkans,were descendents of italian,iberian and byzanthine(romaniote) jews,who adopted the ladino language.sephardi jew from turkey,and sephardi jew from malta,and sephardi jew from beirut,had more together than with their surrounding countries.arabs didnt treat the jews as arabs,jews didnt identify as arabs,and what sealed the deals were the pogroms(in hebron,safed,tiberias,baghdad,egypt,turkey,kurdistan,morroco,algiers,tunisia,lybia)that cleared the jews they aint part of the arabs and never were...
we dont deny anything.mizrahi music is strong in israel,my childhood neighbourhood nahlaot has clear middle eastern vibe and architecture even that it was built in the 19th century,i learned how to pray with yemenite jewish pronounciation.
we love "arab" music,art,architecture,some authors of it.we reject pan arabism,theocracy and clan fueds common across the arab world. we love european culture.its not the "zionists" who made turkish and arab youths love rock and electronic music.there are western cultural aspects we love,some we reject same with arab"values".

This reminds me that back in the early 70's, my mentor, a French-Spanish Jew from Egypt who had migrated to Australia told me he had visited Israel for the first time. He stated that if Israel wasn't busy defending itself against surrounding Arab neighbors, it would be fighting internally as the Germans looked down on the Poles who looked down on the Russians etc. and the local non European Jews were at the bottom.
That's because France, Spain, Germany, Poland and Russia are all European countries. Those people are not the real nation of Israel. They're immigrants who practice Judaism. According to the bible they don't belong in that land. Neither do the Arabs/Ishmaelites.
It is hard to believe but the fact remains the same, thank you!
I'm a Levi and as the rabbinical tribe, I see all Arabs and jews are the same because we're a family that was split over time... our father Avraham made some not so good choices, but he's our father and that makes you my brother... and those who love our people and cousins of those who don't love our people, but I love each and every one of you
How can prove you're a Levite? As for Ishmael & Issac, Ishmael was denied to inherit the inheritance of Abraham. When Issac and his wife had (Jacob) Israel and Esau, the promise went from Abraham, Issac to Jacob. The Ishmaelite have no part in inheritance of the land of Canaan. The Torah also consider them enemies of Israel. (Psalm 83) But because you didn't speak according to the law & the testimony I conclude that you are not a Levite. Furthermore, the real tribes of Israel has been scattered throughout the earth during slavery. (Deuteronomy 28-29) The real Jews are the African Americans. They just don't know what country or tribes they're from.

Jer 23:14 - I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.Jer 44:9 - Have ye forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives,

38:42 Ok even if the Polish Jew claims the country wasn't created for Mizrachi/Sephardic Jews(where Israel was created for all Jews) they still have to all have the right to live in Israel under the law of Return and should be treated equally as human beings.
I don’t think he meant it that way. The polish guy is too secular and too left wing to think all jews are the same. He probably doesn’t even identify as being jewish rather he thinks he’s polish
and who said we dont?half the jewish kenesset members are jewish,we had mizrahi jews in every minister office besides prime minister,mizrahi supreme generals,mizrahi presidents,mizrahi chief of police,mizrahi state legal advisor...there are hundreds of couples of "mixed descent"(european and mizrahi,like myself and my gf),millions of israeli of mixed descent. we know who threaten us,it aint the ashkenasi...

For those who "theres no racism in Isarel against Mizrahim/Sephardi" why did virtually all of them change their names if it were arabic?
Why do the religious of those communities dress like Ashkenazi jews of the Haredim/Hassidic? Why is the dominant religious dress of Israel
Ashkenazi yet half the Jewish population is Eastern origin? Yes things got better for Mizrahim/Sephardi on condition they hate Arabs as much (if not more)as the ashkenazim does. the fact you have religious jews in Israel whose ancestors came from arab or middle eastern countries dressing like they came from the Pale Settlement is proof of which culture dominates. There was a video directly asking these Jews why they dress like ashkenazim and not of their own origin they responded "its weird if i did that" "it would look strange" or "this come from Europe thats why I dress like this". The vote right wing for two reasons 1) the circumstances that led to them moving to Israel and fact unlike Ashkenazim who are usually dual citizens most don't have anywhere else to go if something went wrong 2) inferiority complex to prove how "different" they are from Arabs.
Unfortunately, I would say Israel has successfully de-Arabized the Jews from Arab lands, transforming them from proud Arab Jews to zealous Mizrahi Israelis. Even the term "Mizrahi" is a racist lumping of all "Oriental" Jews, ignoring their cultural differences. Professor Ella Shohat, an Iraqi-born Israeli-American, articulates this phenomenon best in her essay "On the Arab-Jew, Palestine, and Other Displacements."

Israel is the promised land for the descendants of Abraham, and more than just the landmass of current Israel. Now all Christ believers are waiting for His return.
Yes Christians are waiting for Christ’s returns so much that the fundamentalist Christians in America are more than happy to give Israel loads of money and support Zionism because it’ll bring Jesus back faster. This is another example of how stupid religion really is.
the "ethiopian jews" filmed on the street of tel aviv, are not israelis of ethiopian origin, but african refuges

This video is full of BS.
In todays Israel, there is literally no difference between "Ashkenazi" and "Mizrahi" or "Sperhardi" Jews, and most people are in fact both!
3/4 of my grandparents came from the middle east and there was never any different attitude against them, and in fact they did well in life.
My family member, an Iraqi Jew, was in an important position in the Israeli government already in the 50's - hmmm nice discrimination.
Israel is the best thing that happen to the Jewish people, don't let AlJazeera fool you.
BS is al Jazeera middle name lol
they are spin masters.
the talmud say
half of the truth is a whole lie!
allso say Believeing is not knowing!
"and most people are in fact both! "
NOPE, Intermarriage is VERY low. Ashkenazim dominates in university, good jobs, everywhere. Sorry dude, look at statistics.
Pablo Podhorzer You have no idea what you are talking about.
What's your statistics?
In Israel no one cares about where your grandparents came from. From my experience, 80%+ of the people in the young generation have at least one "Mizrahi" and one "Ashkenazi" grandparent.
There is no gap between Ashkenazim and Mizrahim Universities, good jobs, the parliament, etc. I know people from "Mizrahi" background who professors in universities, workers in Intel, doctors, etc..
The Ashekanzi/ Mizrahi stuff is less relevant today than it ever was - and believe me that you don't know better than me, you being a foreigner.
Some of your confusion may arise form the fact that there are here are many people in Israel in good positions you'll probably mistaken for Ashkeanzi but are in fact somewhat Mizrahi.
For example, the Knesset members Stav Shafir and Ayelet Shaked (search them in google) are both half Iraqi Jews, even though most foreigners probably think they are "100% Ashkenazi".
Not only in Israel, but also during history, there were many intermarriges between Spahardi/ Mizrahi/ Ashkenazi Jews - which sometimes lead to strange events. For example even Nethanyhu found not long ago that he have some Spahardic origin in his family history lol
More examples from the past: did you knew that Theodor Hertzel was an both Sephardi and Ashkeanzi Jew?
Georg Cantor, the father of the mathematical discipline of set theory, had Jewish ancestors from Spahradhi origin.
The only place where the distinction between "Ashkenazi" and "Mizrahi" Jews was relevant and is still relevant, is in the Ultra orthodox society, which is very delayed and racist socierty. Mizrahi and Ashkanzi Ultra orthodox tend to be very racist toward one another. When looking at statistics, including them (as usually done), can change the statistics dramatically and not to accurately represent the secular part of Israel.
(I have seen some statistics which show "big" differences between Ashkenazi and Mizrahi Jews in specific categories of study, but they are usually being cherry picked by newspapers like "Al Jazeera", "Haaretz", etc, among all the studies which shows very small differences in most categories.
If you want to show some result, it is very easy to menipulate the statistics to show what you want. E.g, if you want to show that there are low intermarriages between Ashakenazi and Mizrahi Jews, all you have to do is (for example) to include in the study the huge Ultra orthodox community, the huge community of Russian Jews who immigrated to Israel in the 90's, etc. The devil is in the details. However, studies I've seen show that above 70% of the secular young Israelis whose family is here for 2 - 3 generations already are both from Mizrahi and Ashkeanzi origin. )
Dude, I am a sociologist from Tel Aviv University that studied ethnic differences in Israeli society. The guy in the video? Was my professor. We studied population statistics. Sorry, welcome to reality.
Pablo Podhorzer This is why your profile describe you as an Independent from Buenos Aires?
And you still didn't provided me your studies like I asked.
I also don't have high regards for Sociologist - my sister studied for undergraduate degree in Psychology in the Hebrew University, and had to choose another subject to study during her degree. She chose Sociology, and she told me she hates it and think it is BS - exactly because all those distinctions in the Israeli society, like Mizrahi - Ashkenazi distinctions, or Women vs Men distinctions, exist almost (and in a super exaggerated way) only in the eyes of sociologist. When you want to see something, you'll see it. It is not present in our daily lives, in the real world everywhere is mixed, people don't ask or care about where your family came from, there are plenty or born Mizrahi and Ashkenazi everywhere.. You clearly don't have any idea about the real life in Israel, otherwise you would know what you are saying is nonsense.
We are no longer European or mizrachi!
we are Israelis!

Mizrahi and Sephardi are virtually interchangeable in Hebrew, all Sephardim are Mizrahim, but not all Mizrahim are Sephardim
Yishai Barr
It depends I suppose, if you take the word Mizrahi for its literal meaning Oriental/Easterner, then of course a North African Sephardic Jew would not qualify under the meaning, but then again, North African countries have gone through cultural Arabization, so in a sense they are "Mizrahim', but nevertheless, for the sake of semantics, I agree with you.
YEOUDAH SHENAV! A giant between scholars. I hope he does not read my typical RUclips comments :-) When I saw the title of the video my mind wandered to the conversations with him about this. Shenav is a shining light in Tel Aviv University.
There is a painting hanging in a Coptic Church in Egypt which depicts Jesus and the apostles - which supposedly dates to several hundred years from the time of Jesus. In the painting, Jesus and the apostles look unambiguously black. But they are not generic black in the painting: by their light black coloring, their delicate facial features, their slender build, and the shapes of their faces, they look nearly identical to modern Ethiopian Jews. The painting also had pilgrims, and the pilgrims who had come to see Jesus were also depicted as black. However, they had different coloring, different facial features, and so forth, from Jesus and the apostles. It looks like the painter was trying to communicate that the pilgrims had trecked from distant locations in Africa.
This painting does not constitute EVIDENCE that Jesus was black, or that the Jews of that time were black - since, after all, Jesus and the apostles were also Jewish. For one thing, the painting dates from several hundred years after the time of Jesus. Was there a tradition at that time that Jesus and the apostles were black? Or does the painting merely reflect the strong ties between Egypt and Ethiopian which have been present for millennia? Hard to know. Still: the idea that Jesus and the Jews of that time resembled the Ethiopian Jews of today is an intriguing theory. In any case, the Bible itself states that Moses’ wife was black, and if she was black, her father Jethro was probably black too... and Moses had Jethro to thank for his wise advice regarding how to set up an efficient judicial system.
European writings from the Middle Ages describe Jews as “dark skinned,” but of course, since then, the variety among the Jews of the diaspora has only multiplied. Nowadays Ashkenazie Jews look white European, Mizrahi Jews look Arab, Ethiopian Jews look African, Indian Jews look Indian, and so forth. There are even Chinese Jews who look Chinese! Jews arrived in China on account of the spice trade and settled there, and the group has preserved its Jewish identity to this day. Since the group assimilated with the Chinese culture to the point of switching to patrilineal descent, there is controversy regarding their status in terms of being religiously Jewish. However, ethnically, there is no question that they are Jewish.

Hi, what's name of the music is used in the start of video?
Super informative!No wonder when Corey asks Misrachi Jews questions about their origins they almost seem kind of shame when answering.
Thats because it dosent seem relevant its not out of shame lol
@negro bsr no one is ashamed of being mizrahi lol
I am Mizrahi and I am not ashamed of it and they weren’t ashamed to be Mizrahi, it’s just no one asks you things like that in the street. If you seriously thought that that’s what they were giving off, it says a lot more about you than them

Roll on the day when national chauvinism is no more, everywhere.
that land not belong to Israel, Israel doesn't exist until refuge (ww2) from Europe come to Palestine and take their land.. this if fact.
I’m an Ashkenazi Israeli and I have to say we ashkenazim live in a very problematic era. The mizrahim people are today the majority of the population due to many mixed marriages of mizrahim and ashkenazim. I personally feel a lot of hatred toward ashkenazim. In away it’s understandable. Ben gurion wasn’t smart enough to look a bit forward to see the consequences of trying to wipe their culture. It turned out to be a big mistake. Now, the culture is becoming Arabic due to inner cultural forces. There is violence in schools,on the streets, ironically, hatred towards Arab people mostly by mizrahim people, cultural degeneration and a lot of political corruption. Infront of ashkenazi, mizrahim sees himself as Arab. Infront of an Arab, mizrahi sees himself as Zionist Israeli. This divided indentity creates a chaotic state to live in. We live in a tough era which a lot of ashkenazim leave Israel. Sadly, I don’t want my 5 month old daughter to grow here and I’m also plan to leave. And I also think that this division,cultural and educational deterioration, hatred and moral degenerative state of the people -will surely bring the inevitable destruction upon Israel in the next big war.
Thanks, Aljazeera. Sometimes in the US we suffer from myopia, thinking that caste and race issues center only on us.
Seeing as america loves israel so much your first impression is not far off.
@Alden Buyer , thank You for pointing that out, I know we have so much better non propaganda journalism here in the US! May I have to remind You at ABC's video from a couple month ago, depicting turkey military action in Syria, while the actual footage shows a weapons exercise from Kentucky from 3 years earlier, oh and BBC having prophetic abilities in predicting 9/11 building 7 collapse 40 min in advance and from my native Germany, a reporter for one of the biggest German newspaper, was during the first gulf war in Iraq and stated that all the reporting done by major newspapers from around the world was staged! Now I am sure there was a bias involved in making of this video, I myself with common sense can filter out that bias and can make my decision, like i have to do daily watching American news according to their bias affiliation!
@Alden Buyer let me remind you of "US Liberty"!
@Alden Buyer I bet you don't have black friends, because i do and they have the same opinion, what about force vaccinating Ethiopian Jews with birth control in Israel, maybe that sounds like "White supremacist" or something!
@Alden Buyer the only troll here is you, they only stopped it because, they were exposed! Speaking about the evil of Israel is always countered with the age old " You are an anti semit" doesn't work with me, because my Lord and savior is a Jew and I am proud of that!

The premise is often that cultural conversion correlates with development, which does not uphold or even a viable argument, China, Japan, Russia, etc still retain aspects of their cultures yet arguably developed societies, equally a mizrahim, or eithopian can still attain higher economic mobility without having to upend their cultures and become subservient to a dominant one.
Russian Jews as well as those from Poland are embedded with cultures and identity from their respective countries which are still practiced why must arabs Jews become more European to be ideal. It's practically nonsense as it's basis is the unstated assumption being more of a particular sets of race and culture informs development. It's tacit racism.
1)we aint arabs,half the mizrahi and hundreds of thousands of sephardi jews didnt come from arab countries-the assyriac/kurdish,caucasus,central asian,persian,turkish,greek and balkan,central asian,aphgani,pakistani,indian and ethiopian jews-have nothing to do with "arab culture",and they werent living among arabs.
iraqi,assyriac,persian and buchari hews ahd stronger bonds to one another than they had with their surrounding non jewish groups.many of the jews in arab/muslim countries were of the italian,byzanthine(romaniote) and iberian origin or they adopted those cultures and ladino language.jews from malta,izmir,beirut,haleb and tathuan of morroco have more in common culturally than with their respective non jewish neighbours.
after the pogroms across the arab world,including the ottoman and british "palestine",arabs cleared to us we were never part of them.
my mom is from assyriac diaspora and my dad is from the yemenite diaspora(like most "mizrahi jews" in israel whose grandparents came from different countries),and we all live much better together than how arabs are living with their ethnic and religious minorities...
2) we dont deny anything.mizrahi music is strong in israel,my childhood neighbourhood nahlaot has clear middle eastern vibe and architecture even that it was built in the 19th century,i learned how to pray with yemenite jewish pronounciation.
we love "arab" music,art,architecture,some authors of it.we reject pan arabism,theocracy and clan fueds common across the arab world. we love european culture.its not the "zionists" who made turkish and arab youths love rock and electronic music.there are western cultural aspects we love,some we reject same with arab"values".
@@user-we4ih1tp7nthe mental gymnastics is crazy 😂 moroccan jews practice an arab culture because they've been living with arabs for centuries, it's that simple. there's no such thing as a collective jewish culture, israel just claims there is because it is a racist entity.
its amazing and very surprising from a people that have seen hatred and discrimination for so long are doing the same to their own kind how is that possible....
Humans are idiots.
AshkeNAZIS ARE NOT JEWS/SEMITES/ISRAELITES! They have stolen and high jacked and colonized the lands! They are simply white-supremacists! Get this fact through ur extremely thick scull!
it's a tale as old as time
The most important thing I have learned here that the iraqi people no matter where the go or after hundreds of years they will always be Iraqis ❤❤❤❤
As a Palestinian I love my Mizrahi and Sephardi Jews. They understand our struggle. Well the good ones. The ones that act like Ashkenazi Jews are a different story.
Rod, I am a Moroccan Jew and I like also my Palestinians cousins, but not the extremists, the normal people ^^
We have the same culture, and we look the same.
How are you holding up with the war?
My mum had a Indian-Iraqi Jewish boyfriend in the UK. For 5 years we ate Hammen and Okra curry for Shabbat, and did range of Mizarahi traditions in the home. When I went to Israel they put me in touch with an other Iraqi Jew who looked after me whilst I was there. Our Shabbat table had British Jews (me), Indian Jew, Iraqi Jew, Dutch Jew, Ethopian Jews etc. It's funny how some people's response to this propaganda piece is to destroy Israel and kill a load of Jews rather than solve inequality in Israel for all Israelis.
Now I understand why yeshuwa jesus was been also encounters racism during hes time....
This division didn't exist then. In Jesus time their divisions were theological.
the torah that we follow has kept us together in the exile for 2000 years..thats why we were not whiped off the earth like other nations..our torah is eternal
Your Torah is mostly a book which consists of palestinian transmissions and legends.
There is a million plus israelis who are Mizrahi and ashkenazi and 50% of merigis are mixte integration is good in israel.

But i also read that communities living in recluse locations had the same statut as the rest, and that rich jews living in the cities were far from troubles.
But hopefully we'll let historians and commentators settle this, and start to build the future.

I am from Moscow, my wife from Riga, my children were born in Israel, a mother of my grand children is born in Israel, but her parents are from Morocco.
Majority of the third generation of Israelis as my grand children.
yeah people dont get that its so mixed these days, some people when you ask them they will tell you like 50 countires xD
Furthermore...The idea that there is prejudice today in systems that cannot prejudice is absurd (such as higher education). It is most likely a cultural difference that brings about the differences talked about (many of which are questionable, since, many many many Israelis are mixed so there is a prior bias in research that takes only unmixed people). BTW, off topic - Arab Israelis (non jewish) get, by law, preferential admission to the Universities due to affirmative action.
Why don't you project the full picture? If Ashkenazi Jews discriminate against the Mizrahi, then Mizrahi also discriminate against the Ethiopian Jews. Overall everyone discriminates against the Ethiopian Jews. Everyone discriminates against everyone, there's no unity and just like the last guy said a nation has never sustained depending only on its militarily power when your nation starts to crumble from within.
there're many more social groups based on origin in Israel than the mentioned 3, in fact these 3 are only symbolic, they have little relation to reality
immigrants from the European part of the former USSR (the so called Rusim) are technically Ashkenazi but they don't dominate in the society whereas those who do dominate are local Ashkenazi born and raised in Israel
so two Ashkenazi can belong to two very different strata of the society
Pablo Podhorzer from what i've seen members of Mizrachi community are quite comfortably placed in the society, they occupy more or less a middle layer, but their position there is firm, which is not the case for Rusim
mizrachi have their own strata too, probably Iranian Jews at the top and the Moroccans/Yemeni Jews at the bottom.
It also depends where the Mizrachi/Sephardi live. Those in the far flung developmental towns are poor and ghetto. Those who managed to reach the center cities like Tel Aviv and Haifa are middle class.
From what i've observed tho the Sephardis hate Arabs even more than Ashkenazis.
monster the argument of emphasized hatred of mizrachim towards arabs actually features in this docu and is given a plausible explanation

I said "the son". The Russian son will be Ashkenazi. In Israel, the biggest predictor of entrance in academics and future income is your mother ethnic origins. This is later reified due to location and most importantly property ownership.

Al Jazeera’s “unbiased reporting “! 😂
Historically an important account of Israeli History as is the other film "The Caliph - Part 1: Foundation" also on Al Jazeera and providing insight to the background of complexity ignored by todays global society. If we are blind to knowledge we will practice hostilities but if we choose to see... we at least may decide to communicate. We all carry the pain of our parents (and their parents).... no matter our history. The question is do we allow the burden of conflict to continue onto future generations. Surely NOT! Peace is Possible.
Can someone tell me what Begin is saying at 17:00 and where it’s from?
"Ashkenazi... Iraqi... a Jew!" (I assume the meaning is if you're a jew it doesn't matter where you're from)

This divide sounds just like any other religious society tbh.
@Jason M it's about Judaism, not jews in particular.
@Jason M so you're saying we should look at it like nationalism rather than a religious debate?
Many Sephardim or Mizrachim look Ashkenazic and many Ashkenazim look Sephardic. I am mostly Ashkenazi and I always get mistaken for Sephardic and one of my best friends is 100% Sephardi and looks very Ashkenazi. This is such a stupid film. There was also intermixing in the diaspora between the two groups. This is why there are Syrian Jews named Eshkenazi.
Hi Jason, that friend of yours could very well have amazigh (berber) ancestors, he should look into it, very interesting, shalom aleichum!
I'm half Ashkenazi half Sephardi.....proud of both
Despite al Jezeera trying to push an agenda, there is not really strong division between the different subgroups of Jews. Besides Ashkenazi, Sephardi, and Mizrahi, there are many other smaller subgroups, the Italkim, Romaniote, Ethiopian, Bukharan, Bnei Israel, and others. We are all ptoud of our culture and of being Jews.
"Forget the Old Culture and Adopt a New Culture" - Thats what almost always happens with Immigration. Normally the children of the immigrants eventually abandon the old culture and take the new culture of the country the moved to, they follow a heavily diluted form of the old culture.... This is exactly what happens in many Western Countries including the USA.
And yet ashkenazis who moved there had little interest in adopting or even coexisting with population that was already there. Ashkenazi, mizrachi, sephardi were all are immigrants. Yet you speak as if the Europeans have the right to expect assimilation to their culture as a matter of course in a new country a thousand miles form europe.
Exactly. I guess the concept of the “melting pot” is all right for countries like the USA but not Israel. Quite the double standard.
@@berwick777but the ashkenazis were immigrant too to this country. So why should other immigrants follow the ways and culture of ashkenazis. Infact the Arab immigrants the mizrachis are more closer to the culture of Palestinians who already lived in that country than the ashkenazis were. So it's the ashkenazis who should've tried their best to asismalte themselves in this Arab culture - which is actually a melting point of 3 major religions Islam, Christianity and judaism where for centuries all three groups of people actually got along together and they never felt ashamed about themselves - unlike in Israel where Arab jews and north African jews and sephardic jews from Spain and protugal are supposed to forget their culture back home and should even feel ashamed to be that.

let me be honest , part of the problem are Mizrachi themselves . They do not prefer higher education most of them prefer to do their fathers jobs , trades , stalls , shops .. I don't Know in Israel , but that's what they do here in Tunisia , most of them stay away from University .
@negro bsr but here they dont live in Poor places or treated bad economically , they have all the possibilities , but they just don't do it , they are very closed on themselves , they live in s specific area ,the Neighborhood of jews . no one forced them to do it , they just do . and they dont continue their higher education . they stop at high school probably . what the reason behind it ? I think there is a lot of mentality in it , not just hard life and stuffs.
In tunisia, they make their own choices. In palestine, ashkenazis want the privilege to themselves. The arab jews want access to a better life, but the state is a racist one.

Please be accurate. It's not all Ashkenazis, only left wing and atheist Ashkenazis. As a Mizrahi I have many Ashkenazi friends. The socialist atheist Ashkenazis hate even the right wing or religious Ashkenazis.
In Iraq most Jews leaned left-wing, and many were in the Communist Party

Interesting documentary. I did not know that the Law of Return had been amended to admit anyone with one Jewish grandparent. Does that Jewish grandparent have to be vetted by an Orthodox council? I recall any American whose mother was a convert from Catholicism. He served in the IDF, but couldn't marry his Sabra girlfriend because his mother had not been converted by the right sort of rabbi.
Most grateful for the documentary!
I didn't know anything about this. It's so sad that this pattern repeats over and over again all around the world. This is a heavy blow.
This ia pure propaganda, there is no sharp divide of any subgroups of Jews in Israel. There are cultural and religious differences, but they are not to the point of hatred or discrimination.
This was a very interesting documentary! Hopefully there are more films made about the difference between different types of Jews!

Hi there Ronie, my names Tom Bryce a kiwi from NZ. I'm not Jewish but have a high regard for Israel & its people. Just wanna say that your "conversation" with A.buyer & J.Thorpey was enlightening & thought provoking! (I watched the YT doco and found it Very Interesting) My understanding is that Abraham & his descendants are the true origins of the Hebrew peoples known as Israelites/Jews..
correct?? After the Roman invasion & conquest of Israel (66AD to 70 AD)
when Jerusalem & its Temple were destroyed, the Jewish people were forced into exile & scattered by Roman power? Hence they ended up settling & living in Europe, Nth Africa & middle east? So the Jewish peoples today are modern descendants of the original exiles??
Please correct me if I'm wrong cos I wanna know the truth rather than lies
Thank you, await your reply

Hi Ronie.. thank you for replying, much appreciated.
I hope I dont offend you when I say that I'm of christian faith hence I believe th'Bible accounts. I use to go to church & worship on Sundays but not anymore since I discovered ( some 20yrs ago) the 7th day Sabbath is Saturday, not Sunday. It was this discovery that changed my thoughts & attitude about the Jews.( from being scornful to respect & admiration) Do I take it that your non-religious? That's fine with me, I'm not here to force my belief on anyone. What I gather reading your replies & comments is that your an intelligent person, with firm opinions & views. I respect that.

It was the League of Nations Mandate of Palestine from 1918 to 1948. Then it was Israel, or in the case of the West Bank, illegally annexed by Jordan, Gaza was annexed by Egypt. After 1967, it was Israel again where in history was it Palestinian land??

they "forgot" few critical points-how were jews treated in muslim lands(second class citizens,dhimmis),what drove most of them to migrate to israel and abandon huge wealth behind(pan arab and islamist pogroms).they left out the fact thaf hundreds of thousands of mizrahi and sephardi jews have nothing to do with the arabs-jews of the assyriac/kurdish,turkish,bosniak,albanian,macedonian and greek,italian,caucasus,central asia,pakistan,aphganistan,persian,india and ethiopian diaspora,have nothing to do with arabs,and hebrew communities of exiles existed across the middle east long before arabic was a common language(following arab and islamic colonialism).irani and iraqi and buchari and assyriac jews were strongly bonded together,and married with another,more than they were connected to their non jewish neighbours.many of the jews of haleb and damascus,lebanon,north africa,egypt,land of israel,and most of the jews of the balkans,were descendents of italian,iberian and byzanthine(romaniote) jews,who adopted the ladino language.sephardi jew from turkey,and sephardi jew from malta,and sephardi jew from beirut,had more together than with their surrounding countries.arabs didnt treat the jews as arabs,jews didnt identify as arabs,and what sealed the deals were the pogroms(in hebron,safed,tiberias,baghdad,egypt,turkey,kurdistan,morroco,algiers,tunisia,lybia)that cleared the jews they aint part of the arabs and never were...

The subtitles are awful. Lots of words are translated incorrectly.
Well.... If Abraham was alive today, he would be considered mizrahi ....🤷🏽♀️
@Golden Aura Exactly!
@@nandinibandhini Sounds like a lot of Israelis think diversity is a weakness for them. wish Jews would stop preaching diversity for Western countries.
@negro bsr doesn't look it.
Yup👏👏👏
Very interesting history thanks 🙏
Jose luis Dela cruz that film is around 10% true so i suggest talking to ppl who actually live here in israel.....
Einm wita a new religion.
Core principles
Pick the leaf gently
thank the food for the food for the sacrifice it has made.
share the life force.
spacial aspectivtives of wita.
1) that there is an underlying sense of unity.
2) our base which is chiral.
3) that there is more than infinite possible deviations.
4) that exsitence is because of progressions of deviations.
minds aspectives.
1) conflict of reason in the face of new challenges.
2) compensatory factor of mind is a natural efficiency that can be mislead in times opf great change.
3) skill become unconscious and natural once a challenge is over come.
math aspectives.
1) tamarkon meaning the power of numbers.
2) totangular meaning to count with more than one number a once.
3) dynaveo to set a list of rules to manage a list of operations that can lead to a varied output and can work with a varied input and can even set ones own rules and operations.
4) relationship and tie parrallelized piecewise functionality in other words.
5) redundance a useful thing to manage with regards to solving some problems.
I would have called my way or religion scientology but it looks to me like a bunch of wankers already took the name but their stuff has no new maths to offer and isn't at all scientific well mine isn't science either in regards to using the scientific method but could be considered science with regards to the comparative scientific method like that used to work with both quantum mechanics and relativity.
listen closely to my words your mind may amaze you and it'd be hard to go back to a simple limited square view here are some studies of mine.
deviations in chiral geometry of the universe causing progression of state. other chiral worlds of a variety of base chiral structures with great diversity of form relative to thermodynamic state body composition and size. life thermo dynamic and chiral in this part of super space. then some progressions even here go beyond simply 2 handedness.
btw sudoku's 1 to 9 as 1,1,2,1,2,3,1,2,3 and 1,2,1,3,2,1,4,3,2 and shift test at this lower easier depth and vola p = np dude I'm watching pixel perfect video on linux mint which is impossible unless p = np. not only that but 12111 + 11122 ok so 1 and 2 make 3 that must mean you carry well this is bijective binary so for 2 numbers the same amount of digits you can just carry to the end thus in parallel then just mod and when 0 is 2 however this parallel bitwise trick is trick when working with 2 2's but still can be done parallel. consequently if u use standard binary you can't do multiplication or addition in such way types because of 0 distribution in the number thus in order to calculate FPs or Integers actually could require a fraction of the die space for such computation.

I'm not going to tell you how to factorize prime though lol I'd kill the Internet with such knowledge in common hands so no.
You can contact me and ask me about my religion however following my religion/way would raise issues and would be hard to fully go such a way much as I have found it to be going up against a square and compass freemasonry/triad world such as this one. I would give you assistance and would take your money for it but others would bully you for in my view developing such an evolved view point.
BTW there can arise perks for going so deep as the life essence of the universe likes to challenge and reward the truly brave like for example I manged to become the creator of this plane of existence due to wita.
It's not even a propaganda, just a bunch of lies.
Today, most of the left wing are Ashkenazi and most of the Likud voters are Mizrachi.
My father is Ashkenazi and my mother Mizrachi, my father stopped speak Yiddish and my mother stopped speak Arabic, it was the same for everyone.
So yes, the Ashkenazi were better educated than the Mizrahi (my grandparents on my mother's side couldn't even read) at first, but 2 generations later, and I have cousins hwo are engineers and doctors on my mother side.
You can't argue that they want to change you in one hand and complain that they don't want you to be as educated as they are at the same time.
I am Israeli, not Arab in the same way I am not European.
Even the thumbnail shows how uninformed on the topic AlJezeera are! Sefardim and Mizrahim are used almost interchangeably in the Jewish world. Also the main divide in Israel today are between the religious and secular Jews.
No divide. You wish!! We're all brothers and sisters. Dont like that? Tough. Life is tough.
U only pretend to be brothers when u hste each other
I am fairly certain this is nothing but a show and that there is not actually divide amongst Jews of different origins. The modern Jewish State is much more a unification of these many streams that had to wander the globe and human history for so long and so the word "divide" is fairly inadequate to describe the composition of Israeli society if you ask me.
I don't understand why there is discrimination between sephardic and ashkenazi jews since they are both european? I mean a Spanish/Portuguese Jew would be more culturally similar to a French/German Jew since they are both western. Rather than a jew of western european descent with a jew from a slavic background? I feel like I'm missing smg here.
I like how they say in the beginning they "don't know if Russian Jews have a history or culture" yeah okay there buddy
Mizrachi Jews had reached high rankings positions in the Arab rule of Spain until the Spanish inquisition . That it is longer history than the Ashkenazi thrive in the 19th century.
This is vey informative.
This is propaganda
Its mostly correct. What they omit is that most Mizrahim never considered themselves to be Arabs, and the Mizrahim ultimately sided with the Zionist because everything that the Zionist did; the Arabs did woese.
Why call them groups when they are Tribes and bloodlines?
We are all Jews people and Bney Israel. 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
