Arab Jews (Mizrahi) constitute a large chunk of the overall Israeli population. Throughout their journey to Israel since 1948 they have been tricked by the Israeli regime into settling in occupied Palestine through one means or another. They had to give up their way of life and culture in order to be accepted by the dominant Ashkenazi Jew or the White European settlers who needed the Arab Jews to increase their population to justify the newly-incepted Israel to the Diaspora Jewish community and to the rest of the international community.

But it wasn't worth it as Israel never accepted them into its core society run by Ashkenazi (European) settlers. Now, over 20,000 of them despise the dominate Ashkenazi (European) settlers so much that they voted overwhelmingly for Muslim and Christian Arab (Palestinian) candidates in the latest elections irking the Israeli regime.
