Beirut's Jewish heritage under threat - 20 Apr 2008

[TheTako400]

Can people please stop using the words Muslims and Jews in the same sentence? They have nothing to do with each other and this war is not a religious war. It is purely political and only fanatics or extremely stupid people see it as a religious war.

[theleb4life]

" Muslim state of lebanon" ? Cmon now.... its not ALL muslims, like 45% are Catholic...

[mmt2k9]

F***k is it AlJazira ???????

[Katrinaissa]

their must be at least an offical lebanese jews org in lebanon or at least an office to recive complaints or requests

[TABSURE]

Lebanese jews are spread all over the world and most of them are successful businessmen and company owners in europe...

[saywatusee]

The rebuild will be funded by zionists with their own agenda for it.Will they use it for peaceful worship or to stir up more hatred so they can cry victim on the world stage? I`d agree with other comments bulldoze it as they do in israel.You just cant trust them,not worth the risk.

[koolkurd82]

but you can thank the ashkenazi jews for the problems mostly ......the crypto shephardic jews during ww1 helped kill the armenians and others in turkey

[papapharoh]

Revelations 2:9 "I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.

[calchas101]

lebanese jews shoud come back to lebanon !!!

[mawass1]

My family entire family from all sides is from lebanon,very respected members of the community and owned alot of land and property in beirut but unfortunetly it was all stolen and taken over when they had to flee for their lives.

they keep on telling me how beautiful lebanon is and how much they miss their life there,maybe there will be peace in my life time and i will have the oportunity to see the heritage of my family,visit the old synagouge and the tombs of my ancestors in the cemetry.amen

[DivyaPreity4ever]

@mawass1 did they flee to israel, france, us or germany?

[mawass1]

@DivyaPreity4ever

They had to flee to israel,not because of zionism,simply because they thought they would have a better future there and most of the community went to israel.

but alot of my reltives went to canada as well.

[bananito3]

@mawass1

it doesnt matter where you and your weak kikes flee

thay are all going to end in hell with Satan, your god.

[mawass1]

@bananito3

haha me and my weak kikes

come say that in israel you internet gangster

[bananito3]

@mawass1

[victorsblock]

@bananito3SuckBigJewishCock:

wow, you are so tough. This is a Jewish owned web site. You can't find one owned by one of your faggots?

Need an address? Come to Israel. Plenty of Jews there. You will know the good feeling of Big Jewish Cock in your fat ass.

hahahahahaha

hahahahahaha

LOL!!!!

[bananito3]

@victorsblock

"plenty of jews" ?

that doesnt sound like your address

[LelaTabetFakhoury]

Yalla they are rebuilding the synagogue now. All Lebanese Jews are welcome back to Beirut.

We are Lebanese FIRST

Then we are Christian, Muslim, Druze, Jew..

[dannymustafa12]

the jews has the right to go back where they belong. why not going back to lebanon we should all support that .

[raymolly1980]

there are more than 19 sects in Lebanon ,and its very important to see the Lebanese Jewish back

Lebanon is a multicultural country ,so i urge you to come back soon >>>>>>>>>>>>>>

[inachu]

Israelis are being outbred anyway.

The only way Israel keeps their nose above the water is through importing any male/female they can get their hands on.

This is why Israel is the #1 country in the prostitution business.... Israel holy my ass. You got more hookers on the street than jewish women in Israel at night.

[inachu]

Bulldoze them as the israelis do.....

they have every legal right.

If Israel can do it then others can also ALL AROUND THE WORLD. start the bulldozers boys!

[dunkelkind78]

everyone wants to be european these days..............LOL

[dunkelkind78]

omg,,,,,arent you ashamed of yourselves, you hypocrites???? it is very well known that arabs do have some serious identity problems....... but to reach the point of denying your heritage is very stupid and uncivilized...to all of you who are ashamed of their origins and try to label themselves phoenicians or just middle eastern go and seek the help of a clinical psychologist because in the eyes of so many westerners whom you want to impress, is just plain pathetic and tacky

[CyborgNinja7]

They're tearing down derelict buildings that were ruined from the civil war. Why should they be ashamed? Would you rather they live in ruins?

[dunkelkind78]

well, I was actually commenting on the views left here on the comment page. I wasn't refering to the film shown here.... as of the jewish community (no offence) how do you want the arab world to react to the Jews who used to live in Arabia after all what happened since the existence of this racist country??

[ramtheslam]

this film is such bull shit

[ballsoffury4]

Don't deny the truth you asshole, you want every reason you can to hate Israel but you know deep inside that the Muslims kicked us out, so STFU.

[BrigitteTrashGabriel]

no its not.

[Tataturka]

it was so fucking nice into hitler start killing israel pople then the britan promised the jews people palesitne.Then war in lebanon beetween the christan and muslim then between lebanes and palesitne in lebanon.Hahaa we let them in so show some little rescpet and hezbollah between amal, plz copie that and send that to every bode who want peas in lebanon

[Tataturka]

ARABS R scientifically been PROVEN to be the SOURCE for the Semitic J1/EU10 Haplotype gene,

[ammannojacku]

okay

[putinkaaa]

actually most of arabs have negroid haplotypes...check in wikipedia and dnatree website!

only 30% have J haplogroup.

this is the proof that arabs are mix with negro\hamite race!

[Jesusthepalestinian]

actually most of arabs have negroid haplotypes**** we dont Have a Problem with that since there is NO race issue in Quarn

In Quran all Mankind is ONE Chosen Race

The Race issue is in YOUR bible

[Jesusthepalestinian]

[putinkaaa]

im from caucasus...and you know? according to wikipedia the highest frequency of J1 is found among caucasian (non semitic ) people

(Dargins 91%, Avars 67%, Chamalins 67%, Lezgins 58%, Tabassarans 49% )

[Jesusthepalestinian]

Dargins population 2,576,531 , Avars population 1 million, Lezgins 600,000 , are ALL semitic people too.... and Come from Arabia coz they have J1 shared with 350 to 400 million Semetic ARABS

[putinkaaa]

haplogroup J originated in northern mesopotamia.

not in arabia.

also most arabs are not J1 ...70% of iraqis and syrians, algerians, palestinians...etc... dont have this haplotype. they have only 30% J

the biggest arab country egypt most of its population dont have J haplogroup at all!

[Jesusthepalestinian]

Dargins , Avars , Lezgins, are ALL semitic people,and Come from Arabia coz they have J1 shared with Arab Bedouins (62% and 82% in Negev desert Bedouins) Algeria (35%), Syria (30%), Iraq (33%), (Yemen 85% , Hadramawt - Yemen 72%, Qatar 58%) (Cadenas et al. 2008).

and the Reason they have High Frequency of J1COZ of their LOW Population Numbers

BUT most Jews have J2 R1b1, R1a,Q all NON Semetic y-haplotypes

[putinkaaa]

J1

Palestinian Arabs (38.4%) . It is also very common among other Arabic-speaking populations, such as those of Algeria (35%), Syria (30%), Iraq (33%)

"wikipedia"

you arabs are not pure also as far as i can see!

and there is no pure genetic nation!

[putinkaaa]

One more thing...

If you are consider yourself arab...so remember that your ancestor ishmael was half negro from egypt. his mother was abraham's egyptian negro slave (hagar)!

ishmael's wife was also negro from egypt

this is one more proof that arabs are mix of negroid race!

[Jesusthepalestinian]

According to Genesis 16:3 Hagar is the wife if Abraham

We dont have a problem with Blacks BUT,,, where did U find in your bible that Hagger negro BLACK?

And yet indeed she (Sara) is my sister; she is the daughter of my father, and she became my wife. (Genesis 20:12)"

Sara is the sister of Abraham

"Cursed be he that lieth with his sister, the daughter And all the people shall say, Amen. (Deut 27:22)"

WE have a problem with Incest FUCK like sara with Abraham lol

[Jesusthepalestinian]

According to Genesis 16:3 Hagar is the wife if Abraham and ccording to Talmud she was a Princes

We dont have a problem if she was Black BUT where is it in bible that Hagger BLACK?

Indeed she (Sara) is my sister; she is the daughter of my father, and she became my wife.(Gen 20:12)"

Sara is the sister of Abraham

"Cursed be he that lieth with his sister, the , And all the people shall say, Amen. (Deut 27:22)"

AMEN

WE have problems with Incest FUCK like in Gen 20:12 lol

[thehighcabal]

putinkaaa One more thing... If you are consider Israelites are Pure semeitc Do NOT forget that most of Israelites(OUR TRUE COUSINS) been Raped as Slaves for 400 years by Egyptions, so Israelites Must have E3b African gene let alone mentioning The Cushite wife of Moses, and Tribe of Joseph from the EGYPTION mother

[thehighcabal]

LOL you are the same user with 3 different names!....Ahahahaaaa....**Ohhh­hh hahahah please DO NOT SAY THAT

FUCK U and BEND DOWN .get with your shiksa rjewish PINK ASS proper ass FUCK, SUCK MY DICK HARD..and Swallow MY PURE SEMITIC GUMS, to be Called Proper Jews from Abraham Isaac ,and Jacob

[putinkaaa]

and btw....lebanonians are not arabs! they are phoenicians.

if they in arabic it does not mean they arabs.

they are great phoenicians...that invented alphabet!

you arabs did not invented nothing...you even dont have nobel prize laureats!

you ugly, savage, stupid and racist nazi people!

[lordjealousisthinker]

putinkaaa Even YOUR MOTHER FUCKING BITCH MOTHERS belong to Mitochondrion haplotypes H, HV, and K Four Dominant European Haploype Rather than The SEMITIC Pr-HV(R) Ones

So To be Semites ONLY U and your Shiksa MOM. MUST BEND DOWN .get proper ass FUCK, SUCK MY DICK HARD..and Swallow MY PURE SEMITIC GUMS, to be Called Proper Jews from Abraham Isaac ,and Jacob

[putinkaaa]

Ok...you are a real jew\hebrew ?

so reject islam, reject arabic and arab identity for first! then we can talk....

if you prefer arab sand nigger identity you are not hebrew!

[lordjealousisthinker]

putinkaaa Judaisim is a RELIGION NOT an ETHNIC identity OR RACE .We R Talking about GENES, DNA Y- haplotype that is J1/EU10 which is SHARED by All ARABS( be ARAB Muslims,ARAB Christians, &ARAB Jews) which Defines ARAB Jews to be ARAB by BLOOD and Jews by Faith

The Irony is Most Jews Do NOT even SHARE the same DNA between themselves, rather they share it with the Local ppl whom they Lived with, a STRONG Indication which Confirm again that Judaism is a Religion NOT Race

[ferju123456]

putinkaaa (2 hours ago) Ok...you are a real jew\hebrew ? HOLD ON

The word Hebrew has NOTHING TO DO with word JEW(INVENTED Name)

Hebrew" is derived from the "`abar" meaning "to cross over". The related name Eber(Father of Jocktan Arabs)in Genesis 10:21 Note also that Abraham is once referred to as "Abram the Hebrew" (Gen 14:13).

So Arabs are Hebrews From Jocktan and Abrham

[ferju123456]

Hebrews Derived from word Eber ( Hud) in Quran..Eber had two sons Peleg..In Arabic Faleq ( Divide ) and Joktan..Gen 10:25..Jocktan ( Qahtan ) Father of Arab tribes like Hadermout..tribes..In South Arabia ..Gen 10:26..Therfore Their are Arabs Coming from Joktan bin Eber,And Arab from Abraham(Gen 14:13).......But Ashkinaz come from Japheth ...and they are brothers of Gog and Megog Read Gen 10:2 and that is Y arabs have J1 where Goyim jews have J2, R and others

[TheBigLeb]

I feel bad for these people. I hope they come back to Lebanon one day.

[Jesusthepalestinian]

TheBigLeb Let them leave palestine FIRST and go back to where they Originaly Had come from First

[putinkaaa]

continue with your nazi racism and antisemitism!

you are very helpful to us!

btw....J1 sharing many people around the world!

J2 sharing many ppl also....samaritans, assyrians, lebanonians and jews!

the real semites....

not the arab nigger rapists from yemen !

[Jesusthepalestinian]

Y DNA issue putinkaaa???

COZ GOYIM JEWS like U (NOT Arabs)R the Ones whom Calling 4 establishing an Nazi Ethnocratic Zionists Fascist state called Israel based on RACE

we say Either To accept the ONE STATE Solution where the GOYIM Jews like U Should live with Native indigenous ARAB Palestinians( Genetically PROVEN to be the TRUE BLOOD DESCENDANTS OF ORIGINAL HEBREWS )

Or go from where U come from ,and DONT COME BACK ,GOYIM JEWS have NO RIGHT what so EVER to STAY and Occupy OUR LAND

[lordjealousisthinker]

samaritans share J1 only Goyims Samaritans share j2 and E3 ,

Plus according to YOUR BIBLE (Phonecians) are NOT Semites they are GOYIMS like Greek (20.6%), Georgian (26.7%), Albanian (19.6%), Italian (20-29%), and to a lesser extent, French Basque (13.6%) populations (Semino et al. 2004) while J1 is ONLY shared between Arabs and SEMETIC SPEAKING AFRICANS like (Ethipeopans 10%)

Let mentioning the Europeans R-haplotype which is in Goyim AshkiNAZI goys like U

[lordjealousisthinker]

only Goyims Samaritans share j2 and E3 ,

Plus according to YOUR RACIST BIBLE(Phonecians) R NOT Semites they R GOYIMS, DO NOT Come come from the Same Fathers of the HEBREWS whom Abraham is from and share J2with Greek (20.6%),Georgian (26.7%), Albanian (19.6%), Italian (20-29%), and French Basque (13.6%) populations (Semino et al. 2004) J1 is ONLY shared between Arabs and SEMETIC SPEAKING AFRICANS like (Ethipeopans 10%)

Let alone R-haplotype which is in Goyim AshkiNAZI goys like U

[thehighcabal]

putinkaaa (54 minutes ago) continue with your nazi racism and antisemitism!*** you are the one whom using the N word

Plus you are NOT a semite.....Mother Fucker Son of Russian Shiksa

[thehighcabal]

putinkaaa (54 minutes ago) continue with your nazi racism and antisemitism!*** you are the one whom using the N word

Plus you are NOT a semite.....Mother Fucker Son of GOY Jew Russian Shiksa

[ammannojacku]

putinkaaa MOST samaritans have J1, and some has J2, even E3b(African)

BUT WHICH Gene ARE THE TRUE JEWS??? Definiatly NOT ALL OF THEM( R,J1,J2,E3, Q).....ACTUALLY J1 is ONLY FOUND AMONG PURE KOHINS and MOST JEWS DONT HAVE J1 the Semitic haplotype , ie ONLY the PURE JEWS whom are Arabs

So if U have J2 then U are Close to Iranians, Kurds, Greeks Middle CASTS Indian and Turks ...i,e J2 is an INDO-European NOT Semetic

Let alone Mentionining the Dominant R ( Europeans) Haplotype.

[TheBigLeb]

If you mean the ones who live in Palestine then I agree with you on that one.

[putinkaaa]

Btw: i'm not russian jew! I'm from Caucasus - Dagestan if you know.

We are descedants of 10 tribes of Israel!

I have the DNA haplotype as phoenicians - J2 haplotype!

[Jesusthepalestinian]

putinkaaa The Haplotype of the Ancient Israelites is J1 CMH( cohen haplotype) and NOT the Anatolian J2 that exist mostly among NON semitic Middleastren ppl like TURKS KURDS, Iranians

[Jesusthepalestinian]

According to the researchers, J1 originated in the southern part of the Middle East while J2 originated in the northern part (Nebel et al. 2001). Because Jewish populations possess approximately twice as much J2 as they do J1, their ancestry more closely matches that of Turkish, Transcaucasian populations.

[lordjealousisthinker]

That is TRUE JESUS Haplogroup J2 is NOT a SEMITIC gene becue it is MOST been FOUND among NO semites EXAMPLE Greek (20.6%), Georgian (26.7%), Albanian (19.6%), Italian (20-29%), and to a lesser extent, French Basque (13.6%) populations (Semino et al. 2004

[lordjealousisthinker]

Haplogroup J2 is NOT a SEMITIC gene but Anatolian shared by NON semits eg greeks,Italians, Kurds, etc

the only way putinkaaa to be called Proper Semitic jew is:-

To bend down you and your Shiksa MOM..get proper ass FUC K, SUCK MY DICK HARD..and Swallow MY PURE SEMITIC GUMS, to be Called Proper Jews from Abraham Isaac ,and Jacob..other wise you and your mom..are just TWO SHIKSA

[putinkaaa]

Ask any Israeli if he hates lebanese people...he defently will say NO! but lebanese arabs hate israelis.

we jewish people don't have hate in our hearts!

we even remember how phoenician king of Tyre Ahiram helped to Solomon build the temple in Jerusalem!

[mgnwalker]

We never left lebanon and camee back claming it,after thousands of years. All occypying even romans they just vanished but we stayed lebanon did stay. Religion for God,friend and no one else. We are leabnese first& not muslims or chritians...just like anywhere else in the world other wise we would have joined the vatican or mekkah or tibet . Lebanon always defended itself and never attacked any other country throughtout history, We are builders as u mentioned & not destroyers. Remember

[putinkaaa]

You lebanese should be proud that Israelis returned the phoenician language to the middle east. which is hebrew.

THE ORIGINAL LANGUAGE OF THE LEVANT!

[mgnwalker]

ayali naim me adle atkirothkha.

Laytroth bye

[putinkaaa]

Also this is a fact...you lebanese were phoenicians in the past and you invented alphabeth. your language was almost same as hebrew. Ugaritic\phoenician language is identical with hebrew.

But now your language is arab, your culture is arab, and your identity is arab.

You lebanese consider yourself arabs!

SO WHO SOLD THEIR SOUL?

[mgnwalker]

My goodness you really have lot to learn. u know that our lebanese(arabic Lang) is still full syriac,phoenicins terms and so on. we are a small country with a big heart. we r christians,muslims,jews, our constitution accepts 18 religion & subs. We are sons of lebanon, we speak arabic or our own aravim, we have a history of thousands years before prophets or messages... we spoke many languages through out history but never sold our souls despight the occupations of all greedy nations

[putinkaaa]

How many languages you spoke?.....you spoke only 2 languages : phoenician\canaanite and aramaic!

what is the connection today between lebanese arabs and great phoenicians?....NONE!

nothing in common! no language , no culture, and no identity! nothing....even you call yourself arabs...which is a lie!

the only one who can call themself phoenicians are maronite christians ....they speaking aramaic!

[mgnwalker]

Man i know dagestan and tov toda for making me laugh ani tov medzdaer, really. How could u know thta i may not be maronite??? This is predjudment . Maronite doesn'r speak aramaic like u do speak hebrew. language used in only some liturjic in church besides it is so close to arabic that u cant understand what is being said.My dear friend if u want to send all ppl back as per dna, my goodness 70% of good citisens of planet earth would be reallocated. Come one this not logic.you are the dremaer now

[putinkaaa]

this is not per dna ya ahi! i'm talking about language, culture, and identity. the dna is just small aspect, that i can be personaly proud of that i'm descedant of the levant!

I'm talking about that Lebanese should be proud of Israelis that succeeded to return the phoenician\hebrew language to the levant!

this is not only israeli heritage...but also your heritage!

[thehighcabal]

putinkaaa what is the connection today between GOYIM Jews of Today and great SEMETIC Arab Hebrews ?....NONE!

GO a nd FUCK your self GOYIM JEWS

[putinkaaa]

Arabs are mix of negroid ppl!

look at saudi arabia and iraq and egypt today. they are mix of negroes from africa!

the real semitic ppl coming from north mesopotamia! not from ethiopia!

so you can go fuck yourself sand nigger!

[Jesusthepalestinian]

putinkaaa Arabs are mix of negroid ppl!*** there is Nothing called PURE RACE on Earth , even IF Hitler and Zionists Goyims Jews like Hetzel trying to proclaim

the real semitic ppl coming from north mesopotamia! not from ethiopia!**** where is your Proof?

fuck yourself Goyim jew!

[thehighcabal]

putinkaaa said Arabs are mix of negroid ppl!*** what is the problem with that?!!!

the real semitic ppl coming from north mesopotamia! not from ethiopia! ***Okay so j2which is shared by the Kurds, Armeanians Turks Greeks, Italians and other Indio-europeans are the semetic people while the j1/Eu10 (Cohen Haplotype or Aaron -hapoltype/ Abraham-haplotype) are NOT

Thank U very much for proving the Chines Origin of the Arabs LOL

That make also Abraham to be Chinese

:+D

[mgnwalker]

In Lebanon there are many cultures mixed together.That's why we r understanding & we respect others & understand , despight what is happening in this unstable situation that was brovoked by our loving neighbours ;)that created this fear from even oneself.I wish just ppl read and know the truth and not what say and do or preach or get preiched of believing of their truth only. laytraoth. Poka

[putinkaaa]

OK bro ....you are a nice person! all the best!

Salamat! Shalom! Shlamat!

[putinkaaa]

Lebanese were phoenicians in the past. they spoke language wich is almost identical with hebrew!

But they sold their soles and became arabs...LOL

[mgnwalker]

Beg your perdon Mr. Putinkaa ???

Lebanese sold their soul ??!!

I should remember you that many jews left lebanon to join their zionist dream they sold their citiznship,excepet the one who stayed or left to other countries. The zionist idea was the catastophe who felt on everyones head who brough palestenians to lebanon who invated lebanon and shreded it apart . we have good memory and never lost sold our soul how about ours israelee

[putinkaaa]

keep dreaming mgnwalker. it's only for you arabs racists disaster....because your nature is stealing lands and make other nations arabs and muslims.

you arabs killed millions and uccupied half of the world.

How you dare to preach to jews how to live and manage their life?

you dont have memory ....in few decades you changed your identity from great phoenicians to beduin arab identity! so who sold their soul?

[mgnwalker]

You know Putinkaa,Lebanese ppl were never beduin,correct your weak infos.I do remember who were the beduin&im sure that u never forgot ure origins!even though i do not humilate ppl because of their color or religion or way of living.i think u better read some books or even ask a noble jewish person&he'll teach about the real history.Unfortunatly u can't have the honor to visit lebanon&correct your knowlege.Just small hint that

Arabs&Jews are from the same dessendence

I feel sorry 4 u.TOV TODA

[putinkaaa]

I have no hate or any prejudice about arabs or beduins. We are all semitic people!

The only people that spreading filthy hate is arabs. those arabs that killed and killing millions. those arabs that occupied half of the world with genocide! those arabs that have 22 countries and want more! those arabs that have no scientific inventions since 15 century!

[mgnwalker]

Dear Putinkaa, how could i explain? u r jewish russian and once soviet union was great example of what u r saying about arabs now.But even though arabs has no inventions since long time ago,we lebanese or our descendants the phoenicians inevented the alphabet that is helping u expressing youreslf, Unfortunatly greedy ppl who invated our land for decades stoped our inventions however our fellow expatriates took the torch&they are doing just great outside the geographic borders &even inside of it

[Yasmina1983]

Im suprised that the reporter,forgot to mention that the israelis were the ones who destroyed abraham magem temple in wadi abu jamil.

not the lebanese or palestinians during the civil war.

[ralphbenmergui]

I put together a show that is done from the point of view of a liberal, religious and Sephardic Jew. I came at this as someone who wants to know, "Can you be a good Jew" and cast a critical eye on how Israel is evolving?

[Yankeesx06]

Our country is filled with sins. & i think god is punishing USA with natural disasters.

[Gabik123]

israel's nuclear weapons haven't lead to any more peace than not having them.

[thisisUll]

Israel is a Criminal State.

I am a Jew. I hate the Israeli Government, they are invading warmongering criminals.

Our G-d is truly ashamed of Israel.

When will the world of Jews renounce this illegal state?

The truth is coming, whoe you Israel.

[Mrpastry909]

WTF? A Jew against Israel?

You must be an ultra orthodox.

[Ayeere]

"monotheistic racist state "

Like Saudi Arabia?

[Bakuninite]

Yet another wonderful example of why religion and politics should not mix. Saudi Arabia needs a good revolution, and many Saudi's would love to see one.

Israel, however, needs to get its ass out of 17th century colonial mindsets, and remove their immigration policy which is akin to the "white Australia policy".

[LB4LIFE85]

I am a lebanese, and it is very sad to know such a place is getting wiped off the map. the problem is that the arabs dont care because they look at what the state of isreal did and does everyday to the palastenians. arab jews are different than those zionists and we respect them very much, but all i can say is history repeats itself.

[LockAdam]

I'm also a Lebanese and I feel the same as you do, so do many other Lebanese that I talk with about this subject. The Lebanese Jews are different from the Zionist Jews.

[Mrpastry909]

Zionist does not equal Israeli.

Zionism is an idea.

[ArabJew]

lies spread by people who deny their responsibility to the sad fate of the jewish communities in arab countries. we all know the farhud and the pogroms against arab jews. you will not distort and wipe our history.

as for lebanon, it was the syrians who created strife and the civil war, after they got rid of their own jewish communities in a similarly gruesome fashion.

the memories of my ancestors live in me and you will never be able to wipe them out. does that bother you?

an iraqi jew.

[darwinmyass]

the jews did NOT flee from the arab world u stupid lier always playing victim until u put a bullet in some kid s head, they were "bought" from corrupt rulers with US and German-extortion money, and when they got to israel they were treated like second class citizen in israel because they were not wite enough for the russian pagan that are claiming to be jews, real jews are dead or few only are left they are replaced with HOLOCAUST INDUSTRIES sarl aka israel

[ArabJew]

we know our history too well for you to twist and hide it. go read about the farhud, learn your own history and hide your head in shame.

an iraqi jew.

[tma1982]

I hope they protect the rich heritage of Arab Jews, In Kuwait the Jewish graveyard is still standing. I hope someday we will live together in peace like before.

[waddleduckie1]

Jews DO Not belong in the muslim state of Lebanon. Jews MUST leave Lebanon or they will face difficulties in the future.

[madrid23]

then you can say the same to the Christians, and if you are Shia, u can say it to the Sunnis too or vice versa. And say it also to Druzes and before you know the only people remaining will be your own. Cause thats the end result of intolerance. Division, war, distrust and hatred. Let me tell you one thing. If you want to build a nation you have to do it based on what brings people together, not what brings them apart. Now i ask you how many muslims life in Christian countries?Should they leave?

[Deianira1987]

muslim state of lebanon? dream on lol hahahaha as if. idio

why not? the jews were their thousands of yrs b4 muslims were.

[layingThesmackdown]

although its very saddening to loose heritage or to change identity, this renovation is much needed in lebanon (not necessarily in that area).

i lived there but moved after the 2006 war, and those new constructions attract investors, whom an important part of the country's economy depends on.

[yahmujibdu3a]

I have to agree the quality of the video is horrible but the most sad thing in my opinion is the fact that people had to hide the faith and identity out of fear-our faith, country of birth and much more makes us who we are if people have to hide there identity it says a lot bout the state of that society

[jerkinp]

The quality of this video is horrible....

[abarzilai664]

As usual heritage is demolished for cororate greed. I never knew there was a Jewish community in Beirut and now thanks to this greed the whole world may never know.

[kamarul1812]

Jewish heritage....so how about heritage of Palastine....

[alidarsa]

Who is denying Palestinian heritage? we are neither speaking of Palestine nor Israel here.

[cardieunion]

Nearly a million jewish arabs fled arab countries and settled in Israel. About the same number of "Palestinians" left Israel in 1948. The difference is the jewish arabs became citizens of Israel and enjoy a decent life, compared to the "refugees" who were denied everything so they'd be kept as living reminders of arab intolerance.

[jerkinp]

Your over simplifying. Some Arab states did expel Arab Jews but others left because of the appeal of a all Jewish state. Israel also offer several incentives to Jews such as jobs, inexpensive or free housing and many other perks. They even attracted Jews in Turkey, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Europe, Africa and the Americas. But the state was created by white, non-Arab Jews. Back then the Arab movement was the popular before the Islamic movement that became popular after the Arab defeats.

[cardieunion]

About 50 percent of the population of Israel is mizrahi (jewish arabs). Many of the people who fought and defeated the combined armies of the arab world in 1948 were also Mizrahi. Israel was created by jews as a homeland for ALL jews, no matter what their ethnicity. This is called unity, something the arabs could never match.

[jerkinp]

The conflict between Jewish Arabs and all other Arabs was because the state of Israel. Israel also acts as a jumping board for foreign nations like the U.S. and Britain etc. to use to keep their presence in the region especially if the current leaders dictators and absolute monarchists turn against their backers interests.

[robert7777777]

Can you explain the massacres of Jews by Arabs prior to the advaent of zionism, such as in 1831 for example in Jerusalem and Hebron (100 years before the next Hebron massacre and expulsion of Jews).

[qasamaan07]

You are talking as if we are the same people in 1831, Robert. Whatever happened in Jerusalem and Hebron in the 19th and 20th century, those are the native Arabs's problems.

[robert7777777]

My point was that not all was rosey as alleged by others. The problem didn't start with Zionism or Israel. It started with religious persecution. I agree that it is time to look to the future, though.

[qasamaan07]

Point's taken. That still needs to be discussed though. We just need to find a way to attract potential audiences, as to remind them about historical accuracies, and the existing non-accurate accounts. This is still an important discussion for all Middle Easterns.

[kamarul1812]

alidarsa I forgot Holocust only apply to Juwish that why world should make sure juwish must secure forever...hemmmm now I understand...

[cardieunion]

Kamarul, Israel's hundreds of nuclear weapons will make sure it is secure. :)

[kamarul1812]

is it so..so why their heritage in denger,maybe effect of radioactive

[Deianira1987]

omg what happened to palestinians was tragic what do lebanese jews have to do with that?

[alidarsa]

This is unfair. Its unfortunate that Leb Jews have 2 keep their religious identity a secret in their homeland. Theyre Leb & have as much right as any other Leb citizens belonging to other religious sects 2 openly celebrate their religious ideologies. The downtown synagogue should be restored

The Jewish community have the full right 4 religious expression & association. Lets not reflect Israeli political point of views on that of the individual & let's not mix religion w/ politics

[gumacyare]

Let's not mix religion and politics? well that could be more of theory than Practice.Tony has been calling for giving religion a role in politics.Bush used the word crusade when he was waging war in Afghanistan.Israel as a country is founded on a claim that they have the right to return to their 'biblical' homeland by displacing the palastinians. Bosnia, palastine, iraq,chechyia,Afghanistan and lebanon have been the target of christian and jews forces disguised as countries. So why is that so?

[alidarsa]

I agree w/ ur factual claims. Im speaking here of micro politics of identity. Why cant we simply stop comparing nations 2 each other (kamarul1812) as examples & living by such instances of history. We can make a change as long as we assert our PoVs.Putting all aside what Blair, Bush etc.. have claimed or praised we cant ignore an individual's basic human rights. Religion in politics is problematic whether it is practiced or not & unfortunately its prevalent in 1 form or another in macropolitics

[ikekll]

What's up with the red thumbs? Geez, look it- we all want the same thing...a chance to live a life free from oppression from the Super ELITE! you know, the men who could care less if an infant's body is shredded by shrapnel

Listen to what the woman says:

"Before the war, we we're all one..."

Conquer and divide!

HEY: Message to "The Establishment," got some news for ya-people on this planet are waking up and the time of being controlled by greedy bastards is coming to a quick end!

[wb678]

Honest to God, the Jews of the Arab world were so famous for cooperating with the Israeli army back in the day and even in modern times that it's better that they leave.

They have no loyalty to the Arab world.

[qasamaan07]

Maybe, but not all Jews like to be Zionists. However, some who do must be taught the importance (esp. the negative ones) of Israel and Zoinism, and its various supporters, over the Arab world. Arab Jews must not co-operate with Israel, for at the time of Prophet Muhammad (SAWS), people who helped the pagan Qura'ysh tribe of Mecca weren't forgiven. But, we're humans. At least, those who might potentially be loyal to their old Arab nations must be given a second, or rather LAST, chance.

[ArabJew]

that's a pathetic excuse for the crimes perpetrated against arab jews.

the overwhelming majority of arab jews were not so interested in zionism, but persecution and nationalism that excluded them, made it to be so.

it's people like your ilk that made them flee.

[ikekll]

Listen to what the woman says:

"Before the war, we we're all one..."

Conquer and divide!

The status quo!

Got some news for ya-people on this planet are waking up and the time of being controlled by greedy bastards is coming to a quick end!

[Deianira1987]

i know i really felt sad when she said that.

god bless her.
