Ethnic Cleansing?

Yemenite Jews are now fleeing Yemen after receiving letters from the government warning them of Al Qaeda death threats.

Residents of the Saada region of Yemen have been given ten days to evacuate by the radical Muslim cleric Hussein Badr Eddin al Houthi. Forty-five Jews have already fled their homes since Monday.

So what exactly does the letter say?

One of the threatening letters said: "They (the Jews) have taken part in actions and movements that serve global Zionism first and foremost, and are working diligently at corrupting people and making them abandon their values, their moral and religious values, and spread all kinds of abominations throughout society." According to the letter, this conclusion was reached "following meticulous surveillance of the Jews living in the El-Hid region in Saada…Our Islam religion compels us to fight the corrupt and denounce them."

Yemen, a Muslim country, has been the subject of attacks against Jews in the past. A large group of Yemenite Jews came to Israel as part of Operation Magic Carpet in 1949 to flee Muslim riots. According to a Yemenite Jew living in Israel, "those who stayed are stubborn, they don’t want to come here…on Friday they told me that they got letters saying whoever doesn’t leave their home will be killed and have their children taken."
