ISRAEL IMPERIALISM - FOLLOW THE MONEY

George Galloway

WHY ARE EUROPEANS OF THE JEWISH FAITH CONSIDERED THE ONLY JEWS? EUROCENTRISM!

Religion cannot be native to any land. You can't convert to Judaism and claim the house of family in Palestine who have lived there thousands of years.

The perception that Europeans of the Jewish faith are considered the only Jews is a misconception rooted in historical, cultural, and social factors. Judaism is a global religion with diverse communities, and Jews have lived in various regions worldwide for centuries. Here are some key points to clarify this issue:

1. **Historical Context**

**Ashkenazi Jews** - Many Jews in Europe, particularly in Central and Eastern Europe, are Ashkenazi Jews. This group became prominent in Jewish history due to their large population and significant cultural, religious, and intellectual contributions over the past millennium. Their prominence in European narratives has sometimes overshadowed other Jewish communities.

**Diaspora** - Jewish communities have existed in the Western Asia, indigenous Africa, the Mediterranean, and beyond for thousands of years. These communities, such as Sephardic Jews (from Spain and Portugal), Mizrahi Jews (from the Western Asia and Africa), and others, are equally integral to Jewish history and identity.

2. **Colonialism and Eurocentrism**

During the colonial era, European powers often imposed their cultural and religious frameworks on other regions. This led to the marginalization of non-European Jewish communities, whose histories and traditions were less documented or recognized in European narratives.

Eurocentric perspectives have historically dominated global discourse, leading to the erasure or underrepresentation of non-European Jewish experiences.

3. **Modern Israel and Demographics**

The establishment of the State of Israel in 1948 brought together Jews from around the world, including Mizrahi, Sephardic, and Ethiopian Jews. However, early Israeli society was heavily influenced by Ashkenazi leadership, which contributed to the perception of Ashkenazi Jews as the "default" Jewish identity.

Over time, the diversity of Jewish communities in Israel and globally has become more recognized, but historical biases persist.

4. **Cultural and Religious Diversity**

Judaism encompasses a wide range of traditions, customs, and practices that vary by region. For example:

**Sephardic Jews** have distinct liturgical traditions, foods, and cultural practices rooted in the Iberian Peninsula and the Ottoman Empire.

**Mizrahi Jews** from the Western Asia and Africa have their own rich histories and traditions.

**Beta Israel** (Ethiopian Jews) and **Bene Israel** (Indian Jews) are examples of non-European Jewish communities with unique cultural and religious practices.

5. **Stereotypes and Misrepresentation**

Corporate Media and popular culture have often portrayed Jews as predominantly Ashkenazi, reinforcing the stereotype that Jews are Europeans. This ignores the groups and ethnic diversity within the Jewish community, including Jews of color and those from non-European backgrounds.

6. **Global Jewish Identity Today**

There is growing recognition of the diversity of Jewish identity, with efforts to celebrate and preserve the histories and traditions of all Jewish communities. Organizations and scholars are working to amplify the voices of Sephardic, Mizrahi, and other non-Ashkenazi Jews.

In summary, Jews are a diverse global community with roots in many regions. The perception that European Jews are the only Jews is a result of historical biases, Eurocentrism, and underrepresentation of other Jewish communities. Recognizing and celebrating the full spectrum of Jewish diversity is essential for a more inclusive understanding of Jewish identity.
