operates information film history distortion comes back after a long absence, a new post. This is a letter of Jews from around the world on the occasion of an information film on the history of Israel. I find something interesting always, as it was written not by the bad Arabs, but from those who do not watch the fraud of their own government do nothing. http://www.barth-engelbart.de Here, the entire cover from the side
Berlin, 09.01.2011
Ladies and gentlemen of the Heinrich Boell Foundation,
We, Jews, Jews and Israelis have learned with great joy that you have a film festival over Israel in late January 2011 in Berlin . hold It is the examination of the history and social situation of the Mizrachi, so Jews coming from Arab and Muslim countries in focus. All the greater was our horror when we got to watch the program.
Not only that many extremely problematic Formulations are included in their flyers, such as "Orient" / "oriental" or that which is set for self-identification of Mizrachi Mizrachi-occupied term in quotation marks. Also missing the word racism in her introductory text altogether, although the racism against Arabs, Jewish and non-Jewish, marks the entire debate of the Mizrachi in Israel. Their perception is reflected in your program, in which, for example a movie like "Sallah Shabati" (directed by Ephraim Kishon) is shown entirely without discussion and therefore racist stereotypes of (Jewish) Arabs are in the space left.
Particularly significant is also your testimony, Mizrachi in Arab countries were "either by the state of displaced or threatened by the Muslim population (was) to leave the country." With this sentence, you are committing nothing less than a falsification of history - with the drastic consequence that you deny crimes against humanity.
Mizrachi you raise an undifferentiated way together in a pot, although each community experienced a different fate:
Iraqi Jews had to because of an agreement between Israeli and Iraqi government to leave their country within a year, and not because they were expelled. planned even while the Israeli government, the agreement was the property of Iraqi Jews were regarded as property of the State of Israel, with the intention of the ownership of the displaced Palestinians, who have not adapted to the Jewish state, " reported as an Israeli intelligence officer charged with . This Information could have seen you in advance from the program listed in your film "Forget Baghdad".
The Jews of Morocco, the largest group of the Mizrachi in Israel were, nor driven from their homes. They left Morocco after Zionist "Aliya" ambassador, who had the government contract to bring the Jewish population to leave their homeland and emigrate to Israel, the Jewish communities took apart. Sun Moroccan Jewish children were kidnapped in state Israel's behalf. Their parents was told the children lead the holiday in Switzerland, instead, they were deported to Israel. The parents could soon see their children only under the condition that the parents had emigrated to Israel. In the meantime, the children were re-educated in a kibbutz. The documentary "Mural operation" that is not listed in your festival program interviewed both the Israeli secret agent who acts against the Moroccan Government, and children who are victims of these abductions from their parents and their were home. The Israeli government also paid the Moroccan king bounty, so that it permitted to insinuate that the migration was caused by repressive policies by the Moroccan state. Instead, put everything in the State of Israel to uproot, the Moroccan-Jewish population. The Moroccan Jews left their homes over a period of more than 20 years and generally was allowed to take each family member one hundred kilograms luggage. Thus, from an expulsion in the case of Morocco can not be spoken. Once in Israel, thousands of Moroccan-Jewish children were due to a harmless fungal infection of the skin exposed to X-rays, which resulted in many side effects and even death, all under a State "Treatment" by Israeli doctors with eugenic attitudes, officials of the "department of social medicine" in the Ministry of Health. This documents the impressive film "The Ringworm Children" .
Much of the Yemenite Jews came to Palestine before the founding of Israel. Once in Israel, many of them experienced great suffering, after their children were kidnapped and presumably Ashkenazi families were given up for adoption. To date, the authorities refuse to provide information on such Kidnapping, despite testimony of families and staff in state health institutions that were involved in these crimes. In addition to a series of scientific literature, we recommend the book by Batya Gur , which traces the terrible history of literature.
The list of Muslim and Jewish communities. Arab countries that have not been sold, can extend itself: On the Jews of Turkey, a country that Jews from Germany started when they were threatened with destruction there. Or to the Jewish Algeria's population that should be sacrificed by the Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir on the altar of Israeli interests with France when the French colonial power, withdrew from Algeria. Also reject Jewish Iranians it to this day despite Israeli financial incentives from , emigrate to Israel.
It could be a lot of the "Western" management structures, say, brought with them according to your program text of the Ashkenazi hegemony after the Eastern European model and to adapt said Mizrachi should. How is it that Jews, who have worked during the colonial period in the whole Maghreb and Iraq for the English or French, should be adapted to "Western" structures of East European Jews? Do you really think that just because people live among Muslims or Arabs, it is therefore not "west" may be enough to fill a form? And what is so "Western" from the Histadrut, the Israeli trade union, which also serves as an employer?
Respect for human rights so requires, finally a crime to name: the expulsion of the remaining Jews in Egypt and Jews. This small Jewish community is the only community of an Arab or Muslim country, whose members were expelled in the act.
with the false claim, Mizrachi had been displaced from their countries, they deny that is the long list of crimes of the Ashkenazi state hegemony against humanity: the abduction of children, their eugenic medical "treatment" with fatal consequences, their re-education and forced secularization.
The Heinrich Böll Foundation sees thus crimes, where they have not taken place, and denies them where they were committed in the act.
It is appropriate to explain not only the historical inconsistency of your false claim, but read against the background of the Nakba (the systematic expulsion of the Palestinians in 1948). A critical examination shows that this hegemonic Ashkenazi-narrative of the Israeli political class is nothing but a fade or relativization of the illegal expulsion of Palestinians is. In order to cooperate with the Israeli-hegemonic widespread attempt to portray Mizrahi as refugees and their property and their status with those charged to the Palestinian people and to regard it as complete. Palestinians, and to ensure that every legal right to restitution of their property be denied. The Heinrich Boell Foundation should also be aware that, conversely, the property of NS-stricken Jews rightly considered private and will not be considered as a state Israel proper.
Overall, it is appalling that the Heinrich Boell Foundation thus to a relativization of a crime against humanity, in this case, the crimes against Palestinians, contributes. With the "media discovery" of the Foundation Mizrachi moves in this form to a way of condemning the falsification of history, the imaginary crimes invented in order to substantiate the denial of real crimes.
If you are interested in other sources are available to Mizrachi Mizrachi filmmakers and intellectuals who live in Berlin, happy to help.

surprised with great pictures. Not only recipes and country, people and products have been scanned. And the courts are more than appealing. I'm going to try and after a lot from the book.
