The man who was being interviewed said that it was only ONE group that had Jewish Kurdith grandmothers & it was in the 1920s. Those marriages were FORCED! When the USA invaded Iraq, those descendants of those grandmothers were free to move to Israel. I believe he said that there were 2,000 such people. In Israel, though, they apparently thought there were be more economic help. That group RETURNED to Kurdistan & live in one city or town where they speak ALSO Hebrew & observe some Jewish holidays & get along quite well w/their Muslims neighbours. I remember someone complaining in the early 1990s about Kurdi 'olim who were praying like Benai Yshma'el.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12677825.post-78707479236244017012015-07-09T13:09:11.492+01:002015-07-09T13:09:11.492+01:00Indeed, some of the northern Ten Tribes of Israel ...Indeed, some of the northern Ten Tribes of Israel were resettled in Kurdistan by the Assyrians some 2700 years ago.<br /><br />So this article is not essentially new.Eliyahu m'Tsiyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07973268399414290195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12677825.post-67490024753340207012015-07-09T13:09:09.228+01:002015-07-09T13:09:09.228+01:00Indeed, some of the northern Ten Tribes of Israel ...Indeed, some of the northern Ten Tribes of Israel were resettled in Kurdistan by the Assyrians some 2700 years ago.<br /><br />So this article is not essentially new.Eliyahu m'Tsiyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07973268399414290195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12677825.post-63729584408416056472015-07-09T13:08:55.828+01:002015-07-09T13:08:55.828+01:00Indeed, some of the northern Ten Tribes of Israel ...Indeed, some of the northern Ten Tribes of Israel were resettled in Kurdistan by the Assyrians some 2700 years ago.<br /><br />So this article is not essentially new.Eliyahu m'Tsiyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07973268399414290195noreply@blogger.com
