Ashkenazi Israelis: Do you hate Mizrahim?

[@leontorywalker8374]

Only a minority of Ashkenazim have a blonde/blue-eyed look about them, the rest are indistinguishable from Sephardim. We could perhaps say that only a minority of Mizrachim skew darker than the norm. You know there are "Arabs" who are blonde/blue-eyed anyway, in the hills of Lebanon and Yemen for example. The "Middle East" has, after all, been a complex patchwork for thousands of years and more.

It evolved when the Jewish people made their way north across the Alps, ending up in the Rhineland of west, Germany and northern France. That is where the Ashkenazi culture had its genesis, but it has nothing to do with the origins of those Jewish people. They are not Germanic, nor are they Slavic, the Jewish people if you care to look at genetics studies have been proven to originate in the eastern Mediterranean area i.e. where Israel is today. Virtually all Jewish people on the planet, share the same ancient haplogroups. And that goes for all Jewish people not just Ashkenazi Jews.

Jack Of All Trades In rabbinic literature, the kingdom of Ashkenaz was first associated with the Scythian region, then later with the Slavic territories, and, from the 11th century onwards, with northern Europe and Germany. Thus, Jewish groups who lived in that region after they had been driven from Israel are termed "Ashkenazi." "Sephardi," on the other hand, is Hebrew for "Spanish" or "Hispanic." Spaniards are, of course, gentiles too, but Jews have lived among them and are thus termed "Sephardi."

Be it school, army, or whatever you meet a lot of different backgrounds and everyone mixes very well, there is very little prejudice to be found here.

I believe that is the case with the overwhelming majority of Jews (including the Ethiopians). They all look different because of different admixture over the years, though, are still almost all descendants of Jacob given that even most converts married into the Jewish line.

[@aliner1546]

Darktemplar99999 Lol אני רואה שאתה לא מפסיק אז אחת ולתמיד Keep being an ultra "leftist" kibbutznik minority within Israel. Most Ashkenazim are indeed leftist but not like you, the only people who can agree with your opinions are the Ashkenazim whom are "pro-palestinian" & anti zionists that live in some insular Kibbutzim. They act like that because they believe the Zionist right & Mizrahim stole "their" country, turned it into an Arab state and the country no longer has their western democratic values & morals. That's insane and hilarious at the same time. Go outside of your liberal elitist village and shout out your opinions out loud - what you think of Israelis nowadays, I wonder what people would say to you, especially the youth. Don't hide in a forsaken kibbutz please 😂 And the people here look like typical Ashkenazim, if you look very very different and "white" then maybe you are the mixed one. Anyway, most of Israel is right wing now and centrist (and the Left is not as radical & racist as it used to be) so your opinions don't matter or relevant anymore. Racist "liberal" minority don't belong here. Its the Middle East, If you are not happy with the current culture and find it difficult to hide in the elitist secular bunker you live in, you are welcomed in Europe where secularism and westernity will suit you the most. If there are still people like you in Israel's villages, you will fade away one day that's for sure.

As an ashkenazi you- you look like the nazis who killed my grandparents. That’s how EUROPEAN you look. You don’t look like you fit in Israel.

[@Darktemplar99999]

@Killikia Productions pfffff no they are not but good one, I take it you've never been in Israel lol.

[@CoreyGilShusterAskProject]

the oriental culture was a backlash from Mizrahim and has little to do with the Middle East. When they moved to Israel, the dominant culture was Ashkenazi. Many felt inferior compared to doctors and lawyers trained in Berlin and Poland. The children of both ended up creating a different Israeli culture based on Western ideas. the new generation of Mizrahim born in Israel took the culture of their home and made it public. The Oslo process allowed it to take over the country.

[@sumitbafna27]

I think dislike would have been a more appropriate question. Most Israelis won't even admit to hating Palestinians. You would find more Evangelicals in America hating Palestinians than Israelis. I have been following this channel closely and based on the people you have interviewed, Israelis in general tend to be very moderate people in my opinion. They wouldn't admit to hating anyone. Ask them if they dislike something/someone and that might give you a more reasonable answer.

I have been subscribed to your channel for at least a few years now and I really appreciate your content.

On a larger more political scale, I also believe your channel can, and does, help bridge the gap and open more dialogue between Israelis and Palestinians. Keep up the great work ☺️

Also many Mizrahim are light, like my dad.

Ashkenazi Jews do not hate Mizrahi Jews or the other way around. When among Israelis, I do not detect hate or negativity against Arabs either. This hate thing is the creation of people who know nothing about Israel and never visited.

interesting to hear that mizrahi culture is dominating the public sphere while on the same time, the israeli establishment is known to be liberal, secular, intellectual ashkenazi. i think you can't escape your environment : how to maintain a western-liberal-secular country while you are in the heard of the middle east ? it makes sense that israel is becoming more "oriental" because it's simply where Israel is.

Im sure youve been asked this before, but why use the word hate? It sets the tone for the reactions that follow, and kind of treats these supposed hatreds as a given. Id suggest that you start using more open ended questions like 'how do you feel about mizrachim and ashkenazim?' 'or 'what is your relationship as an ashkenazi israeli towards mizrachim?'

[@CoreyGilShusterAskProject]

Sphardic refers to Jews who were forced out of Spain and Portugal in 1492 and went to North Africa, the Levant, Europe and Turkey. Mizrahi means 'eastern' and originally referred to Jews from Iraq. Today it is used for Jews who came from the Middle East/North Africa. Outside Israel, Sphardic and Mizrahi are used for both groups. In Israel the term Sphardic refers to those who can trace their heritage to the expulsion from Spain.

The vid is also revealing in the subjects who you assume are Ashkenazi (because they are fair?) and they turn out to be Mizrah/Sefaradi.

[@marcchesley3731]

Ashkenazims shouldn't hate Mizrahim, because Mizrahim are true descendents of Abraham they belong in Israel. All Mizrahim can trace their lineage from one of the 12 tribes of Israel. Can't say the same for their European counterparts who are only Jewish because of religion. Many of them are either Russian, German, Ukrainian, Polish or Dutch.

[@OliverNelson426]

marc chesley It has been proven in studies that Jews of Ashkenazim,Mizrahim,and Sephardi are related to Palestinians. There is no doubt that in European Jews there is a European component,but most of the DNA is compiled of middle eastern. Roughly 30 percent is European in European Jews.
