Iranian Jews Contradict American Zionists’ Claim that Iran is Seeking to Commit Genocide Against Jews with Another Holocaust
The current narrative in the United States regarding the current country of Iran is that they are the enemy of Israel, and want to "wipe Israel off the face of the map", starting another Holocaust. Evangelical Christian leaders are among the most vocal in calling for the U.S. military to start bombing Iran, allegedly to protect Israel and the United States. As I have previously reported, Iran, along with the Soviet Union and China, were allies with the United States after World War II. Another "inconvenient truth" about Iran that does not fit the current political and religious narratives in the U.S., is that Iran has been the home to millions of Jews for over 3000 years. You can read much of their ancient history in the Old Testament section of the Bible, when King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, which later became the Persian empire, captured many Jews of nobility in Jerusalem in the 580s BC bringing them to Babylon. The book of Daniel in the Bible shows how some of these Jews became leaders in the government of Babylon and then Persia, as did future Jewish government officials in Persia when the Jews began to rebuild Jerusalem, as recorded in the book of Nehemiah in the Bible. And while there are fewer Jews living in Persia (Iran) today, they are still a part of the Persian Iranian culture. Iran is home to the Middle East’s second-largest population of Jews, who freely practice their faith, peacefully coexisting within the Islamic republic and even have a seat in the legislature. The son of the former King (Shah) of Iran who was deposed from his throne in 1979 is Reza Pahlavi, the Crown Prince of Iran who now lives in exile. He is a Zionist Persian, and he and his wife even visited Israel last year. Take a look at the photos in the lead image I created for this article. When is the last time you saw a Muslim, a Shia Zionist Muslim, praying at the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem?!
