The table shows the Jewish population in various Arab countries since 1948, then in 1972, and then recent estimates.

There doesn't seem to be much tolerance for Jews at all in most of these countries, especially as compared to the Israeli's tolerance for peaceful Muslims who live in the State of Israel.

Table of Jewish population since 1948
In 1948, there were between 758,000 and 881,000 Jews (see table below) living in communities throughout the Arab world. Today, there are fewer than 8,600. In some Arab states, such as Libya, which was about 3% Jewish, the Jewish community no longer exists; in other Arab countries, only a few dozen to a few hundred Jews remain.

Copied and pasted from Wikipedia re: Arab populations in Israel:

Population
In 2006, the official number of Arab residents in Israel was 1,413,500 people, about 20% of Israel's population. This figure includes 209,000 Arabs (14% of the Israeli Arab population) in East Jerusalem, also counted in the Palestinian statistics, although 98% of East Jerusalem Palestinians have either Israeli residency or Israeli citizenship.[147] In 2012, the official number of Arab residents in Israel increased to 1,617,000 people, about 21% of Israel's population.[148] The Arab population in 2023 was estimated at 2,065,000 people, representing 21% of the country's population.[1]

According to the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics census in 2010, "the Arab population lives in 134 towns and villages. About 44 percent of them live in towns (compared to 81 percent of the Jewish population); 48 percent live in villages with local councils (compared to 9 percent of the Jewish population). Four percent of the Arab citizens live in small villages with regional councils, while the rest live in unrecognized villages (the proportion is much higher, 31 percent in the Negev)".[149] The Arab population in Israel is located in five main areas: Galilee (54.6% of total Israeli Arabs), Triangle (23.5% of total Israeli Arabs), Golan Heights, East Jerusalem, and Northern Negev (13.5% of total Israeli Arabs).[149] Around 8.4% (approximately 102,000 inhabitants) of Israeli Arabs live in officially mixed Jewish-Arab cities (excluding Arab residents in East Jerusalem), including Haifa, Lod, Ramle, Jaffa-Tel Aviv, Acre, Nof HaGalil, and Ma'alot Tarshiha.[150]

Jaffa, which currently has 16,000 Arab residents, mixed of Muslims and Christians.[151]Old City of Acre, an area where Arabs make up 95% of the residents.[146]
In Israel's Northern District[152] Arab citizens of Israel form a majority of the population (52%) and about 50% of the Arab population lives in 114 different localities throughout Israel.[153] In total there are 122 primarily if not entirely Arab localities in Israel, 89 of them having populations over two thousand.[154] The seven townships as well as the Abu Basma Regional Council that have been constructed by the government for the Bedouin population of the Negev,[155][better source needed] are the only Arab localities to have been established since 1948, with the aim of relocating the Arab Bedouin citizens (see preceding section on Bedouin).[citation needed]

46% of the country's Arabs (622,400 people) live in predominantly Arab communities in the north.[152] In 2021 Nazareth was the largest Arab city, with a population of 77,925,[156] roughly 40,000 of whom are Muslim. Shefa-'Amr has a population of approximately 43,023 and the city is mixed with sizable populations of Muslims, Christians, and Druze.

Jerusalem, a mixed city, has the largest overall Arab population. Jerusalem housed 332,400 Arabs in 2016 (37.7% of the city's residents)[157] and together with the local council of Abu Ghosh, some 19% of the country's entire Arab population.

14% of Arab citizens live in the Haifa District predominantly in the Wadi Ara region. Here is the largest Muslim city, Umm al-Fahm, with a population of 57,677. Baqa-Jatt is the second largest Arab population center in the district. The city of Haifa has an Arab population of 10%, much of it in the Wadi Nisnas, Abbas and Halissa neighborhoods.[158] Wadi Nisnas and Abbas neighborhoods, are largely Christian,[159][160] Halisa and Kababir are largely Muslim.[160]

10% of the country's Arab population resides in the Central District of Israel, primarily the cities of Tayibe, Tira, and Qalansawe as well as the mixed cities of Lod and Ramla which have mainly Jewish populations.[71]

Of the remaining 11%, 10% live in Bedouin communities in the northwestern Negev. The Bedouin city of Rahat is the only Arab city in the Southern District and it is the third largest Arab city in Israel.

The remaining 1% of the country's Arab population lives in cities that are almost entirely Jewish, such as Nazareth Illit with an Arab population of 22%[161] and Tel Aviv-Yafo, 4%.[71][153]




So I ask you, who is the more tolerant country?

Do you really think the current Jewish populations in the Arab countries as estimated in the Wikipedia tables above are significantly understated?

Also, feel free to search the subject on Wikipedia yourself. I only copied and pasted what seemed to be the most relevant information to make my point, and to be brief enough to fit in my post and not overwhelm the readers.

If you can find something on Wikipedia, or some other unbiased source to contradict what I posted, please post it yourself...

It is because of emigration to Israel. Israel's population has increased substantially since 1948 too and therefore less to do with intolerance. After all these people have lived together for centuries.

i'm going to give him more credit here. Mr. Trudeau being more forceful on his disdain for Hamas and those who have been publicly supporting them since the attacks.
Does he have a choice given western sentiment. Does he have much choice given a very recent screw up. Does he have much choice given the polls. While it is a far cry from his usual hopes and prayers with stand with Paris virtue signalling. Don’t give him too much. He is as credible as a drama teacher.

People made Aliyah to Israel.


And a corresponding increase in population in Israel

Obviously not. If that was the case, why were they spread out into so many other countries. That's hardly living together.

And if they did move back to Israel it was because they feared for their lives because of intolerance.

Do you think that we'd see the same kind of shift for Jews that lived in N. America in 1948 and now? I highly doubt it. Why? Because they do not fear for their lives.

For now, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and just say that your post was stupid as opposed to other more appropriate adjectives.

The 800,000 or so Jews in those Arab countries pre-1948 lived together with the Muslims for a great many years. After the State of Israel was created many Arab countries forced them to emigrate, either by direct edict, or by persecution. And even more so after the 1973 Yom Kippur war and other confrontations. Hence the further reduction in Jewish populations in Arab countries using 1972 as a baseline in the above tables.

I provided sources that show emigration to Israel and a corresponding and substantial increase in population in Israel. That is what Zionism was about, to form a Jewish state. So it is understandable especially in the backdrop of WW2 and the holocaust that Jews moved to Israel, because it was established as a Jewish homeland.

To say it was because of intolerance is ignorance. Stop making up stories in your head.

So instead of calling my post stupid, you should give your head a shake instead.
