not the middle East…

If you re-read my comment, you’ll note I said that something like a third of Israelis are (originally from) from the middle-east or arab countries.

Wikipedia:

Mizrahi Jews (Hebrew: יהודי המִזְרָח), also known as Mizrahim (מִזְרָחִים) or Mizrachi (מִזְרָחִי) and alternatively referred to as Oriental Jews or Edot HaMizrach (עֲדוֹת-הַמִּזְרָח, lit. ‘Communities of the East’),[2] are a grouping of Jewish communities comprising those who remained in the Land of Israel and those who existed in diaspora throughout and around the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) from biblical times into the modern era. … Regions with significant populations … Israel … 3,200,000

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mizrahi_Jews

3.2 million / 9.5 million = 33.7%.

Most of Israeli immigration has been from the former Soviet Union

Wikipedia:

Russians in Israel or Russian Israelis are post-Soviet Russian citizens who immigrate to Israel and their descendants. As of 2022, Russian-speakers number around 1,300,000 people, or 15% of the Israeli population. This number, however, also includes immigrants from the Soviet Union and post-Soviet states other than Russia proper.

So 33% from the MENA.

15% Soviet.

Ashkenazi(mainly Europe): 2.8 million / 9.5 = 29.4%

IRC the rest are non-Jews.

That took far too long to google, which is why most people debating the whole conflict simply don’t bother. Why would they when they’ve already come to a conclusion and chosen a side? Why let the facts get in the way?

Honestly, this is why I’d rather swim in a septic tank, than spend too long debating the whole thing.
