I thought that "Bene Israelis" would be friends of India. But they forgot their relations with us. We are their benevolent neighbors. We were good to them in difficult times...historically when India was attacked by British & Muslims, they didn't took our side.
The only country in the world where there was no anti-semitism was in India. Why did the Bene-Israelis have to leave India to be treated not apparently so well in Israel.
Nissim mosses told 100% true chitpavan bhramin converted from bane Israeli jews till now you can see chitpavan bhramin their golden eyes their golden hair colour their white skin colour mostly I see dixit surname name bhramin of kokan they looks like foreigners
The claim of seven Jewish couples that survived the ship wreck is more of a myth as you might not have anything to substantiate it. Secondly, one needs to be an Olympic grade swimmer to survive a sea storm. Lastly, the Jewish immigrants from India were under skilled and had very little to offer a fledgling country of Israel where not much English was spoken then. It was Hebrew or French. Most of the Jews from India came from the villages. The English they spoke was more Marathi than proper English. The Jews from India are probably converts from way back and please don't get me wrong as every Jew may have been a convert from way back. Nothing wrong.
Proudly Indian , but for a bag of rations (ricebag) our proudest Bene Israeli soldier leaked information of the Indian freedom fighters in 1857. Is this idiot for real, if anything he’s done great disservice to the Hindu-Jewish relationship.
I wonder what is the karma for betraying the only community in the world for a few pounds? even the east india company was financed by them in england.
How sad it is !!!... you say Jews have been the most safe only in India, India welcomed you with open arms, you became successful and then you betrayed India during the 1857 mutiny against the British. The informant of the uprising was a Bene Israely !!!! Then you migrate to Israel and are treated badly perhaps like seconnd grade citizens, as recently as the gentleman's daughter getting mistreated by her second grade teacher. You proudly talk about your achievements in Israel, the land and the people who mistreated you and have put you in a place where you have to constantly prove your worth, but yet you call India a "poor" nation who could not have afforded to make defense deals with the mighty (I suppose) Israel. Very saddened to see this interview. FYI I am a proud Indian and a proud Chittapavan Brahman.
He is making wrong reference as though landscape below punjab till kanyakumari as india, which is totally wrong, Hudu or hindush was regined by Xexers as per Bible, xexers reigned from hindu kush (ancient India) till Ethiopia, Today's Kerala on western coast was reigned by cheras that is not india, that was ancient tamil country. Anyone who reads the Bible can understand, that hindu kush was referred as indoi by greeks, just common sense required.
