[@kcbamania2600]

The report is a bit pessimistic for India. The word "diminishing" sounds like a forced exodus of Jews from India was underway. Indians, Hindus/Muslims/Sikhs migrate to many countries, but this report makes it sound as if there was anti-Jewish environment in India. The migration I am sure is because of better opportunities available in Israel and not some other reason. India has literally NO anti-Semitic history. India has always been a multi-religion society with tolerance for minorities. India-Israel friendship will go a long way. I hope the "stereotypes" about India are not created for better people to people contact.

[@rickybell2190]

Zionist controlled media can't and won't say that other countries are not anti semitic, this does not fit well in their propaganda in how Jews are victims when in fact they are the most dispiciable people known throughout history, they cry when they say they were thrown out of most countries over the centuries.....We just forgot to ask why they were pushed out .

[@rambayt]

1:30 - 1:40 - As an Indian, I feel a little sad (not hurt) to hear that they felt like 'strangers' in India. Perhaps, they were so busy being Jewish, that they did not try to understand India. Perhaps, we did not do a good job of making them feel at home. Perhaps, they were expecting some special treatment that were never aware of. Perhaps...whatever could be the reason. But, I can say for sure, that Jewish people were never treated as refugees, or even guests. They were only seen as one of us. As Indians. There are so many different religions and cultures here that even we Indians have not heard so far. As a south Indian, Hindu, I keep discovering new Hindu gods everyday. North Indian Hindus aren't able to pronounce my South Indian Hindu name. And I can't pronounce their Hindu, or Islamic, or Zoroastrian, names correctly. So, it is not surprising that most of their friends have never heard of Judaism in India, let alone pronounce their names correctly. 30,000 Jews among 1.4 Billion ! What's the probability? India is the only country where antisemitism practically doesn't exist. The Bene Israel people have lived here safely, and happily for over 2000 years (following a shipwreck). Baghdad Jews, and Zoroastrians came here to escape persecution. None were forced to convert. India has always been a melting pot or all religions and cultures. An ancient United States. India only opposed those who came with an army to conquer us. Not refugees and guests who came seeking safe haven. None was asked to leave. None were treated differently. A Jew in India can become anything he/she wants to be, including the President or Prime Minister of India. Absolutely no stopping them. But despite all this, if they feel at home only in Israel, we only wish them all happiness, peace and prosperity. If ever they want to return in the future, India's doors will always be open.

There is one and only one reason they are bashing India,which is,Hindus aren't rich "Caucasians".Since they themselves aren't Whites and they have found their new home among much whiter Israelis,they cannot hold back the tendency of a Dull Complexioned person to bash their very own race in front of Caucasians.

sanjay s There's a BIG difference between Christianity/ Islam and Judaism, that many non Jews don't understand. Being a Jew isn't a religion. It's first and before all a nationality. Christianity and Islam are universal religions: they are open to everyone, and many people from different nationalities believe in them. Why is being a Jew different? to understand that we need to go back 1,900 years ago. for more than 1,000 years, until 1900 years ago, all the Jews lived in the area of today Israel, in a Kingdom called Judah (or Israel). Jesus was a Jew who was born in that era. Than, 1,900 years ago, the Roman Empire destroyed the kingdom of Judah and exiled all it's people (the Jews) all over the Roman Empire. That's why there are Jews all over the world. The Jews all over the world, during all the 1,900 years until today, always saw themselves as Jews, people who are exiled from their home in Israel, and wanted to return. Jews in exile always kept their tradition, married usually other Jews, and had connections with other Jewish communities (even from far places.. for example in the 17th century there were many marriages between Jews in England and in Iraq). All the Jews in the world prayed every year "for the next year in Jerusalem". Jews tried to return to Israel many times in the last 1,900 years, but usually in small numbers. But in the end of the 19th century the modern Zionist movement emerged, and it gave hope for all the Jews in the world to finally return to their home - so they returned in huge numbers. Now that's what you must understand about the Jews who live in India - the Christians and Muslims of India are usually people native to India who just converted to Islam/ Christianity. The Jews are refugees from the destroyed kingdom of Judah in Israel who found home in India (just like the Jews who found home in Germany and in Iraq and in Russia and in Iran), but are still part of the Jewish people and want to return to their home and people, in Israel. Judaism, unlike Christianity and Islam, isn't a missionary religion - we don't try to convert people to our religion. And Jews during history tried to marry with other Jews to keep their nation. That's why the people who are Jews are, unlike in Christianity and Islam, usually not native to the place they live. And as I said being a Jew isn't a religion at all - I am an atheist and I'm a Jew, Albert Einstein was an atheist Jew, and the father of Zionism, Hertzel, was an atheist Jew.. It's first a nationality, than a religion (that almost only people from the Jewish nationality believe in). I hope you understand now the difference. We Jews are grateful to your people that you were good to our people while they found home and safety in your country - but you must understand that they see themselves as part of the Jewish people (and they really are) and want to live with their people just like you want to live with your people.. and that's ok.

i respect the Jewish community i wish someday i visit Israel but i didn't like the way that girl said... like no one pronounced her name properly etc... im a hindu and if someone from Israel didn't pronounce my name properly i cant go complain...

[@mixedbank1256]

You fucking idiots, India has given you a place for everything - freedom of expression, freedom of religion, right to live, right to education, a place to build your shelter...and what not? You grew up breathing Indian air, developed your brain/knowledge by Indian intellectuals, fed on Indian sweats by hard-working leaders...and what not? HOW DARE BETRAY YOUR OWN MOTHERLAND??? India never force you & your family to become Jew/Hindu/Christian. You only chose that. HOW CAN YOU TURN YOUR BACK TO YOUR OWN MOTHERLAND just for your religion? Fuck your religion. Please don't mind my language cos you deserve worst than that.

[@daakudaddy5453]

Info Bank Never judge people, you haven't been in their shoes. You know nothing of Judaism and the Jewish homeland. Didn't you see the full video? The talk about feeling of not belonging to India. It's possible. Jews from all over the world (including US and western Europe) migrate to Israel because it's a part of their religion to get back to the 'Homeland'. Their generations did chose to stay in India during the rough times of colonialism, famines, partition and wars, despite creation of Israel at about the same time as India. Though I am sad about this that some would like to migrate, but I can understand it the pleasure of being among people of your kind, who understand your way and culture. Side note: They are all things evil, but Sundar Pichai, Satya Nadela and Indra Nooyi make us proud? We have double standards, don't we?

[@mixedbank1256]

Ashish Zexx, now don't tell me you're one among them. First of all, you should not have judged me - what if I'm a jew? You hypocrits... Go away from India if you don't belong to this country. None stops you!!! Why do you have to SHOUT OUT LOUD that you don't belong to India? Thanks for being a critic, but I clearly do not appreciate your brainless, irrational comments.

[@daakudaddy5453]

Info Bank Of course you're not Jewish and don't know even one tiny bit about the importance of Jerusalem for people of Jewish faith... that much is clear from the tone you take. This is not judging, this is simple deduction. You completely lack perspective or even the ability to think about complex matters with that hollow cerebrum of yours that is barely capable of one dimensional hysterical thinking. Let alone understand them. I've been nothing but polite, but you take the offensive and insult to make up for lack of argument. You're so small a person, you can't even handle a simple difference of opinion with composure. Enjoy life with your lens of small thinking, you'll amount to much of a person.

[@daakudaddy5453]

Info Bank Who the hell are you to judge people who's life you don't understand? Have you ever met one of these people? I know you haven't.. You don't know their life, how they feel, the challenges and prospects they have, and out of nowhere you come here dictating what they should do? Who the hell died and made you a Rabbi (that's equivalent to a Priest for Jews, in case you don't know, which actually is the case) So keep your mindless opinions to yourself and thanks for being active on the internet. You don't have anything to contribute to humanity anyway...

[@mixedbank1256]

Go to Jerusalem! You don't have to teach me your patriotism here in India, you emotional fool. Keep your politeness with yourself - I've read your comments to others, you've been very rude to everyone for nothing. You assume yourself that everyone is a fool to you. When I was three, my granny taught me: Rabbi means Teacher, simply meaning present days' Priest. Mind your words and lets stop personalizing because nobody's hell died for me and your hell didn't made me a Rabbi. I am citizen of that country to where I belong - India is my Motherland and I will serve for my country.

[@ajaybidwe]

For almost 2000 years (thats a huge time for human history) these peoples only homeland was Kokan. So long that they had nearly forgotten their roots language culture and simultaneouly integrated into the local culture to an extent and people referred them as Caste Teli than separate religion. They also kept their separate religion identity as personal faith than proselyting the religion and creating rucus which other minority does on a large scale. Therefore, local people never caused any anti-semitic persecution for their religion. Some Jews from Badhdad in 19th century found about this Teli community and secretly investigated their riturals and stories from their ancesters of how they landed in India and came to conclusion that this is the lost tribe of Israel and then revival of this community as a Jews started. So for many many centuries they were simply Teli caste people in India and Indians Jews is very recent identity.

No matter how much we complaint about India in other countries but finally we advocate for the country where Hindus are majority... So the Jews are doing same inside they love India but in Israel they are feeling like home as Jewish are majority there. Just like we Hindus we feel more home in India Hindustan Bharat !!!
