A 2600 year old thriving community? In Iraq?Iraq once hosted a thriving 2,600 year-old Jewish community that numbered some 130,000 people at the time Israel was created in 1948.
But after Israel came into being and into conflict with its Arab neighbours, Iraqi Jews began to suffer discrimination and were often accused of being agents of the new Jewish state.
By 1952 more than 123,000 had left the country, and 20 years later there were no more than 500 left.
Many more left the country following the 1991 Gulf War and today, after the chaos unleashed by the US-led invasion and the overthrow of Saddam, only some two dozen are believed to remain.

I write about what the first Prime Minister of Israel called 'cruel Zionism'. I write about it because I was part of it."
ok, perhaps reasonable people can agree that Zionist are the root of many troubles over there.
I'm looking for solutions now. Where do the Jewish people go? Obviously there can be no peace with those people living amongst Arabs. So, what to do?
Ending Zionism by policy or rocket fire will still leave generations of bitterness and retaliation. So, for there to be peace the Jews must go.
But where?
