Zionist role in pushing Jews from Iraq to Israel in 1950s
British-Israeli historian Avi Shlaim claims to have uncovered “undeniable proof” of Israeli involvement in attacks on Jewish communities in Iraq in the early 1950s.
In his autobiography ‘Three Worlds: Memoirs of an Arab-Jew’ published earlier this month, Shlaim details his childhood as an Iraqi Jew and subsequent exile to Israel.
His book also includes research about a number of bombings in Baghdad which prompted a mass exodus of Jews from the country between 1950 and 1951, most of whom, like he and his family, ended up in Israel.
A police report and an interview with a former Zionist operative form the basis of Shlaim’s claim that Israel’s spy agency Mossad was involved in several of these attacks.
Shlaim also writes that Iraqi Jews did not face antisemitism until the 1940s, when they were suspected of being complicit in the British invasion of Iraq in 1941 and in the Nakba, or the ethnic cleansing of historic Palestine that led to the creation of Israel in 1948.
He adds that the Zionist project led to Jews from all across Arab countries going from respected fellow citizens to akin to a fifth column allied with the new Jewish state
