Image of Mizrahi children subject to experimental ringworm treatment in Israel, from the documentary The Ringworm Children On June 14, 2017, the Israeli newspaper, Israel Hayom, published an extraordinary report documenting medical experiments on mostly Yemenite children who subsequently disappeared; those who died were autopsied without parental consent, the parents were often not allowed to see their dead children, and no death certificates were provided. Since Operation Magic Carpet, 1949 to 1950, when 49,000 Jewish Yemenites were airlifted to Israel to grow the Jewish population and counteract the procreating Palestinians, there have been three official inquiries exploring egregious and unethical patterns of behavior towards Yemeni children by the medical and social service communities. Previous Israeli committees concluded that no children were kidnapped, although some children died or were adopted by Ashkenazi families without the birth parents consents.

Three bronze cannons found off the coast of Megadim in northern Israel shed light on how the Venetian weapons industry innovated tools to help merchants fight off pirates hundreds of years ago. As reported in an article in the August edition of the Journal of Archaeological Science, the three cannons were likely part of the arsenal of a sailing merchantman, whose ship was wrecked off the shore of Haifa in the last quarter of the 16th or the early 17th century, during the first half of the Age of the Sail (15711862). The three long-barreled bronze cannons were first discovered and surveyed during 19721973.

Bearing in mind that the majority of the Jewish Diaspora is not Zionist only less than half reside in Israel, the majority being permanently resident in the US, and Europe plus the documented fact that the overwhelmingproportion of Zionists are not even Jewish but are Evangelical Christians who number something in the region of 50 million it is reasonably clear that the Jewish majority who currently live and work in the Diaspora, not only have no desire to move to one of the worlds most dangerous, geo-political trouble spots, but would dismiss the idea of the State of Israel being a safe haven for anyone, whether Jew or Gentile. So, what are the facts
