Being Jewish in the Islamic Republic of Iran

In the Islamic Republic of Iran, there is a thriving Jewish community. It has its synagogues, schools, a hospital, associations and even a member of parliament. Mostly accepted, Iran's 10 000 Jews are protected by the Iranian regime, a concrete example of tolerance in the country. Some of them are so patriotic they say they would defend Iran if they were attacked by Israel.

+the truth most Jews in Beverly hills in Los Angles or NY or Los Vegas or Hawaii, are Iranian, and most are billionaire and have their not only in US also their business inside of Iran, and travel each year to move money from Iran to united State as they have special privilege to have their gold or money here when can cheat the same Iranian also American taxation and send money to Israel or to the relative, or buy land and investment in Europe, in such report French Jews representative , talk about the one of those shah of Iran and his loyalist Jews who at the time of revolution, he and many of his friend took billions dollar from Iranian bank, send out side of country, so government of Iran ask they should give it back or he will be prosecuted and jail time, of Course his family did not wanted to give back the money so he was executed, and now his children live very nice in Beverly hills in LA in CA,

[@whiteduck5563]

Iranians accept jews because of historical bond and similarities. Not to mention that most of Iranians don't take the religion seriously.

[@cyrusparsa1724]

Iran is not just a country. Iran is a great civilization and an ancient culture, including many different ethnicities and religions.

[@irandoosty]

Iranian Jews and Christians and Zoroastrians are an inseparable part of Iranian culture and history and will remain for unforeseeable future, as an Iranian Muslim I love this diversity.

Iran and Israel don't have a diplomatic relationship and iranian are not allowed to travel to Israel but Jewish people are exempt, which means many of them visit israel every year, therfore this so called expert is rather talking rubbish.

[@danialekbata9352]

+Nima Ebi Thats not true you can easly travel to Israel with Iranian pasport (ofc with visa) but problem is Iranian goverment told his citizen they must not travel to Israel ,so if they see Israeli stamps in your paspoort you get probleems ,and its not only Iran but also many Arab and other coutries have same ruels for Israeli stamp in paspoort. But if you are traveling to Israel you can tell Israeli Immigration officer dont stamp in your paspoort and they do it seperate in one piece of paper for you

[@the.r32]

[@jamalbibishahrbanoui7267]

we are Iranians above anything else, what sets us apart is our level of humanity, nothing disturbes us more than when we witness injustice, Iranian Jewish community must not allow the Europeans define who they are or what their goal and ideals (zionism ) should be, Iranian Jews should take the lead and be more vocal than our leaders against the injustices that are being commited in their name not only against the Palestinians but also against the native Jews there. It falls on your shoulders to come with plans and means to trun Isreal to what it was meant to be, as God had meant it to be.....

[@techlifevideosj7219]

Iran has the highest Jews population after US and Israel. They are respected in Iran.

[@afshinsooferian8616]

Out of 200 000 Iranian Jews only about 4% or 8000, mostly elderly are still in Ayatollah regime. Horrific persecution, terror and ban from emigrating to Israel (which includes revenge on family members) are keeping this small remains of once great community in this barbaric Islamist country.

As IRANIAN citizen we love and respect all religions including our Jewish brothers and sisters. Jewish students can study in all schools. My father is from ardabil and my mother is from Kerman and i born and raised in Kerman And I had 2 Jewish classmates in school and just in islamic Classes they didn't present and they had thire own religion classes. Actually all of us IRANIAN CITIZENS under same rules.

In Iran lack of freedom for Jewish people is no different to Muslims or Christians. We all suffer from lack of political and personal freedom.

[@revolutionist2468]

In a country where minorities can live in safety and consider themselves equal citizens. The system of governance in that country must be very good. So forget extremism and narrow-mindedness and stay united with dignity. Greetings from Bangladesh.

[@nazanind711]

Because they are iranian before being jewish no need to fear

[@human8957]

I hope those Iranian Jews who left Iran also come back here again. we will receive them with open arms. it has two benefits, we keep our diversity in Iran and it may lessen the Palestinian's burden.

[@greywolf271]

Very enlightening. Thank you

[@coolcalm1605]

Iranian Jews have a traditional market that has been around for more than 100 years and is still being carried on by the Jewish community. Jews in Iran have an organization that is more than 700 years old. Indonesia has the oldest organization and until now it still exists, it is 109 years old.

[@user-id9kZf7T8Bl3Y]

As an Iranian, I am quite sure that people of Iran like and respect Jews and Christians, but they don't respect Arabs mainly because of the Iranian regime. Iranian regime forces Islam and supports Arabs, and the people do the contrary

[@rodrigoa9072]

This is the truth that iran respect all races not the other way around.

I hate that even they try to show good about iran, someone like this old man comes and just talk negative, dude jews have much much better life than many Muslims in Iran ,they were never attacked and u talk about 2 jews being killed Md u directly connect it to religious crime just because u hate iran??I loved when that jew doctor said they will fight anyone who wants to fight iran even of its israel!! Thats what jews in iran are really! Loyal to their motherland

[@eugenehiggins3478]

Wow 2700 years of history in Iran. That cannot be overlooked lightly. God has kept them. Why is a French Jew commenting on Persian Jews? and just don't tell me its because they are fellow Jews. Ok, that granted. But French Jews have grave problems in France that should be talked about just as much or maybe even more.
