:I don't think ] is even a Persian Jew. As for the other two, I'm not sure how much they emphasize their Persian roots. Basically, if you want to know if someone is a famous Persian Jew, first make sure he/she is famous. Then ask someone to write a paragraph about him/her. If the paragraph contains the words "Persian" or "Iranian" then that person could be famous Persian Jew. This is certainly the case for ]. I don't know about Katzav or Mufaz. ] 06:01, 25 October 2005 (UTC)


The 8,500 has a source, https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/jewish-population-by-country, but this source not only does not report 8,500 jews living in Iran, it reports 0. The 8,500 figure seems to be entirely fictitious as it is not present anywhere else on the internet. ] (]) 18:27, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
:: ] is indeed of Iranian origin (both his parents were born in ]), but he himself was born in Israel and I don't think he has any knowledge of the ] (Farsi). Both ], the current president of Israel, and ], the former Chief of Staff of the ] and the current minister of defense, were born in Iran and are fluent in the Farsi language. There was even a scandle around this during the funeral of Pope John Paul II, where Katzav claimed he spoke to Iranian President ] in farsi during the occasion.

There's a conflict between the "Internal Policies" section of this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/Ciamak_Moresadegh
I've heard the number was actually between 25,000 and 30,000. Have the number of Jews living in Iran diminished to only 11,000 in recent years?


And what this article claims.
:The official number is 11,000 but the actual number might be closer to what you're suggesting. Most sources seem to say 11,000. I'm not sure where it's coming from. ] 06:00, 25 October 2005 (UTC)


Two specifics I noticed were the Ciamak article claims that the Qisas discrimination was ended (2017?) and that jewish students don't have to go to school on Saturday anymore.
Thanks for the info.


As I am not well-versed in this field I don't know whether Ciamak is a reliable source for these statements though, so I just thought I would note it here. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 02:29, 24 December 2024 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
== Criticisms of the Phrase ==

I removed the following paragraph:

:It is strange how the Persian Jews are not accepted. Persians Jews have been in Iran for 2,700 years. That is 90 generations ago. In, addition, they have been in Iran over 1200 years before Islam ever exsisted. Yet, to lots of unaccepting Muslims, they are too different to be regular "Persians". They do not need any acceptance; all Jewish Persians are as Persian as Muslim Persians and Armenian Christan Persians. A simple practice of religion does not affect one's race, yet they are discriminated against.

That may be true, but I think it is irrelevant to a section titled "Criticisms of the Phrase" and its wording strikes me as somewhat patronizing (i.e., non-compliant with the non-POV policy).] 15:38, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

== 2 not 1 ==

I remember seeing a news peice on CNN that said there were TWO jews in Afghanistan, not one. I could be wrong seeing as how this was a couple of years ago, but if anyone has the time to track it down it might be worth looking into.
:At least one has since died (it was in the news)... if not both of them... they were both quite elderly. ]<font color="#008000">]</font>]] 07:18, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Inconsistency with Iranian Statistic

The 8,500 has a source, https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/jewish-population-by-country, but this source not only does not report 8,500 jews living in Iran, it reports 0. The 8,500 figure seems to be entirely fictitious as it is not present anywhere else on the internet. 2600:8803:C7DC:2100:19C4:7134:CB66:BE64 (talk) 18:27, 13 October 2023 (UTC)

Some discriminatory policies might be outdated

There's a conflict between the "Internal Policies" section of this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/Ciamak_Moresadegh

And what this article claims.

Two specifics I noticed were the Ciamak article claims that the Qisas discrimination was ended (2017?) and that jewish students don't have to go to school on Saturday anymore.

As I am not well-versed in this field I don't know whether Ciamak is a reliable source for these statements though, so I just thought I would note it here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.41.165.13 (talk) 02:29, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
