Update: The ashkenazi Murder of Prominent Mizrahi Activist
Dr. Galit Sa'ada ZT"L
A prominent Mizrahi activist, Tunisian background, which died this week in a suspicious event of giving birth at a zionist hospital. In a particular sensitive political moment for them in there history, were their fate and imaginable sums of  $$MONEY$$ are involved and the last thing the criminals want now is a Mizrahi upheaval in New Khazaria. I knew her, we worked together at the Jerusalem University, the feeling is very bad. Huge loss.

Sharing the dry facts: The similarity to the suspicious death of my mother, my father's wife, a Mizrahi activist at ma'abarat Kiryat Haim were I was born, strikes me. The same lies and cover ups about the causes of death of the ashkenazi medical and administrative guys to my father and the family,  4 orphans and 3 orphans, went to the hospital for her fifth birth giving and never came back, and more.
We all know these beasts have no problem to use massive deadly radioactive, biological or chemical attacks on Mizrahis, and a variety of diabolic assaults against Mizrahis, what is one more human being for them? What are little Mizrahi and Plestinian or Iraqi or Aphgani children for them? - another horrible thing we know very well about... Is there one person in the whole world that can refute those facts?
Just sharing the striking facts.


I wrote this in another post, when I got the bad news:

This group has undergone a unique Orientalization process in Israel. This process triggered the crystallization of a diverse musical scene in Sderot that exposed three practices of molding Mizrahi identity. By engaging with a dialectic model that appears in the later writing of Edward Said, I argue that the Mizrahi subversion of Israeli Orientalism encompasses a re-creation of it in different degrees of intensity. Keywords identity; Israel; Mizrahim; Orientalism; popular music Music, like any other cultural product, is not an autonomous sphere. Political, social and economical forces play a significant role in its crystallization (Coplan 1985; Frith 1996; Hesmondhalgh and Born 2000; Stokes 1994). An analysis of musical activity in Israel, as in any other society, reveals the interplay of forces that exist between the various ethnic groups and the dynamics that mold ethnic and national identities. This article focuses on a unique and well-known phenomenon in...

The cloak, the cage and the fog of sanctity: the Zionist mission and the role of religion among Arab Jews*
Yehouda Shenhav

Abstract. This paper examines the Zionist national mission to mobilise Jewish ethnic communities in Arab countries, in the period preceding the establishment of the state of Israel. It draws on archival texts to trace a phenomenon known in Jewish historiography as 'Shadarut'; a voluntary religious practice of fundraising which was widespread in the Jewish world for hundreds of years. The paper shows how this pre-national religious practice (to be labelled 'the cloak') was adopted and incorporated into the Zionist national project ('the cage'), first generating tension between the Jewish religious establishment and the Zionist 'secular' movement, and then blurring the distinction between Judaism as a religion and Judaism as a national identity. The paper shows how secular emissaries of European origin arrived in Arab countries as religious emissaries ('shadarim') and aspired to discover a strong religious fervour among members of the Jewish communities there. This is because in the eyes of the Zionist (ostensibly secular) movement, being religious Jews in Islamic countries was a criterion that demarcated them from their Arab neighbours. This analysis entails two main conclusions: (a) that contrary to the experience of the European Zionist national movement in which secularism and the revolt against the Jewish religion played a central role, in Islamic countries it was particularly the Jewish religion, and not secular nationalism that was used to mobilise the Jewish community into the Jewish national movement; (b) that the 'shadarut' practice refuses to yield to the epistemological imperatives and the common divisions that arise from the binary distinction between 'religiousness' and 'secularity', particularly in the Middle East. Some implications for contemporary Israeli society are discussed.
