I mean, we don't speak English.
Okay?
We don't speak German.
And if we read something about it, they're all antisemites.
And the weaponizing of antisemitism into a kind of a thick filter
that enables us to reject any kind of legitimate criticism is part of the system here.
So media-wise, we hardly hear the international situation, hardly hear it.
The question of what does that mean to us, I will say as follows.
Up until the Second World War, 90% of the Jews in the world
were Christian-born Jews, what we call Ashkenazi.
And 10% were born in the Muslim sphere, what we call Sfaradim.
So it was 90% Christian world Jews and 10% Muslim world Jews.
Today in Israel, it is 50-50, which means the old perception that Israel is an offspring of the West, of the Christendom,
demographically doesn't work because at least half of the Jewish Israelis, not to talk about the 20% of Palestinians with Israeli idea, but from the 80% Jews, 50% were born or offsprings of Muslim world Jewry, which do not share the same legacy and the same heritage and the same tradition that Jews shared with you.
which is the evolution of the West.
I'll take it a step further.
Yes, many of us were born in so many other places, our parents or grandparents, but most of us were born here.
And here is a very strange place.
On one hand, we're not Europe anymore because we got disconnected.
And on the other hand, we never got connected to the region.
