      Allahdad 1839 pogrom

      Mawza Exile 1679-1680

      Damascus Affair 1840

      Granada Massacre 1066

      1834 looting of Safed

      And more
      “In 1656, all Jews were expelled from Isfahan and forced to convert to Islam because of a common belief that their Jewishness was impure.”
      “in 1661 they were allowed to revert to Judaism, although they were still required to wear a distinctive patch on their clothing.”

    • Meh, if you can call the dhimmi status a peaceful life, yeah I guess.

      Anyway as soon as a Jewish state was declared, all the Arab countries attacked it, I wonder why. So now they didn’t want Jews in their Arab countries, and they didn’t want them in their Jewish country. So where exactly were they supposed to live?

        They didn’t want a Jewish colonial state to start annexing Arab land and to drive out the native Arabs, which is exactly what has happened.

          I don’t think the word “colonial” means what you think it means.

          But just to make sure, what do you think the word colonial means?

        • What do you mean colonial? Jews are indigenous to Judea and they’ve never left. All the lands were either bought to Arabs or conquered after wars that the Arabs themselves started.

            Even in the first century, about half the Jews lived outside Judea and it went down from there. And it’s not like they were displaced by moslems. They just left.
