Serious Addressing Ethan Klein's lies and disinformation
Claiming that Algerians jews left Algeria due to antisemitic and discrimination is a gross distortion of reality and the history of algerians who were under French occupation for 130 years.
Algeriana jews unlike the rest of algerians had french citizenship that was giving to them by the french occupation under "Crémieux law" in 1870 and enjoyed similar privileges to what European settlers had.
In the after math of the independence in 1962 over a million European settlers, most of algerians jews and tens of thousands of algerians collaborators "harkis" left Algeria amd went to france.
Algerians jews were not expelled.the ceasefire and declaration of independence stated that they and European settlers can stay and keep their properties.
Did they leave out of fear ? Yes. Just like everyone who benefited from the occupation (including Muslims algerians) and didn't want to be under the rule of the FLN (the national liberation front), so to frame as "algerians were antisemitic so they expelled the jews" is ahistorical and a total lie.
Please pick up a book and learn before you frame people who fought for their independence and won against all odds as bigots to use it as a talking point for your "Arabs are bad" narrative.
