History of the Jews in Libya
The history of the Jews in Libya stretches back to the 3rd century BCE, when Cyrenaica was under Greek rule. The Jewish population of Libya, a part of the Sephardi-Maghrebi Jewish community continued to populate the area continuously until the modern times. During World War II, Libya's Jewish population was subjected to antisemitic laws by the Fascist Italian regime and deportations by German troops.
After the war, anti-Jewish violence caused many Jews to leave the country, principally for Israel, though significant numbers remained in Rome and many later emigrated to various communities in North America. Under Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, who ruled the country from 1969 to 2011, the situation deteriorated further, eventually leading to the emigration of the remaining Jewish population. The last Jew of Libya, 80-year-old Rina Debach, left the country in 2003.
Ancient history
The oldest trace of a Jewish existence in Libya appears in Sirte, which some Archaeological surveys made on the "Barion" region there dated its Synagogue to the 10th Century BCE, during King Solomon's reign.

Jews
The Jews (/dʒuːz/;Hebrew: יְהוּדִים ISO 259-3 Yehudim, Israeli pronunciation [jehuˈdim]), also known as the Jewish people, are an ethnoreligious group originating from the Israelites, or Hebrews, of the Ancient Near East. Jewish ethnicity, nationhood and religion are strongly interrelated, as Judaism is the traditional faith of the Jewish nation, while its observance varies from strict observance to complete nonobservance.
The Jews trace their ethnogenesis to the part of the Levant known as the Land of Israel. The discovery of the Merneptah Stele confirms the existence of the people of Israel in Canaan as far back as the 13th century BCE. Since then, while maintaining rule over their homeland during certain periods—such as under the Kingdom of Israel, the Kingdom of Judah, the Hasmonean Dynasty, and the Herodian Kingdom—Jews also suffered various exiles and occupations from their homeland—from Ancient Egyptian Occupation of the Levant, to Assyrian Captivity and Exile, to Babylonian Captivity and Exile, to Greek Occupation and Exile, to the Roman Occupation and Exile. These events subjected Jews to slavery, pogroms, cultural assimilation, forced expulsions, genocide, and more, scattering Jews all around the world, in what is known today as the Jewish diaspora.

Jews of Libya and the Holocaust (Harif, 18 April 2023)
On Yom HaShoah, we look at the impact of World War II on Libyan Jewry. Their plight deserves to be better known outside their own communities and their voices heard. From 1938, the Jews of Libya, who lived under Italian rule, were subjected to the Fascist racial laws. They felt the brunt of the back-and-forth World War II battles in the North African desert. Some ended up in Bergen-Belsen Mussolini ordered the expulsion of the Jews of Cyrenaica. Some were sent to a concentration camp in the western mountains of Tripolitania, where a quarter died from disease. Following liberation there were violent pogroms in Tripolitania. More than 90% of Libya’s Jews left for Israel, and the last Jews were forced to flee in 1967. Vivienne Roumani-Denn is a film-maker, oral historian, writer and past...

STORYLINE
Demonstrators picketed outside a hotel in Tripoli on Thursday to protest against a formerly exiled Libyan Jewish man's attempt to restore the capital's main synagogue.
A crowd of around 30 people held up signs labelling David Gerbi, who fled to Italy with his family in 1967 as anger rose over the Arab-Israeli war, a zionist.
Others called on Gerbi to renounce his Italian citizenship.
Inside the hotel Gerbi lashed out at the protester and vowed he would not leave.
"All Libya can come to protest against me but I'm not guilty of being Jewish, I'm proud of being Jewish, I'm proud of being Libyan and proud of being Italian. Most of all I'm proud of being a human being that has faith in God, that he knows what is what is right and what is wrong," he said.
Gerbi says he has so far been blocked from trying to restore Tripoli's main synagogue.
On Monday he broke through the bricked up entrance to the crumbling Dar al-Bishi synagogue with a sledgehammer but says he was later warned that armed men were coming from all over Libya and would target him if he did not leave the area.
The head of the National Transitional Council that is governing the country was dismissive of the issue when asked about it at a news conference, saying it was too early to worry about rebuilding a synagogue when revolutionary forces were still fighting supporters of fugitive leader Gadhafi.
Libya's new leaders have promised to lead the oil-rich North African nation to become a democracy after ousting Gadhafi in a civil war that began in mid-February.
But Jews are widely despised in the Arab world because of the conflict between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
Gerbi's family fled to Rome when Arab anger was rising over the war in which Israel captured large swaths of territory from Jordan, Syria and
Egypt.
Two years later, Gadhafi expelled the rest of Libya's Jewish community, which at its peak numbered about 37-thousand.
Gerbi returned to his homeland this summer to join the rebellion that ousted Gadhafi, helping with strategy and psychological treatment.

On Monday he broke through the bricked up entrance to the crumbling Dar al-Bishi synagogue with a sledgehammer but says he was later warned that armed men were coming from all over Libya and would target him if he did not leave the area.
The head of the National Transitional Council that is governing the country was dismissive of the issue when asked about it at a news conference, saying it was too early to worry about rebuilding a synagogue when revolutionary forces were still fighting supporters of fugitive leader Gadhafi.
Libya's new leaders have promised to lead the oil-rich North African nation to become a democracy after ousting Gadhafi in a civil war that began in mid-February.
But Jews are widely despised in the Arab world because of the conflict between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
Gerbi's family fled to Rome when Arab anger was rising over the war in which Israel captured large swaths of territory from Jordan, Syria and
Egypt.
Two years later, Gadhafi expelled the rest of Libya's Jewish community, which at its peak numbered about 37-thousand.
Gerbi returned to his homeland this summer to join the rebellion that ousted Gadhafi, helping with strategy and psychological treatment.

Even though Jews make up less than one quarter of one percent of the world’s population, they are one of the most targeted minority groups in the world. Why all the hate for the Jews?
Before we look at why people hate Jews, also known as Antisemitism, we need to define “Jew.” A Jew is someone who identifies with the cultural community whose traditional religion is Judaism and who traces their ancestry to the ancient Hebrew people of Israel, all the way back to Abraham. Jewish people are considered an ethnoreligious group. Both an ethnic group and a religion. There are plenty who identify as Jews yet are not religious. Israel’s Law of Return, which is the law that gives Jews the right to visit and be a citizen of Israel, says a Jew is someone with either a Jewish mother or who has converted to Judaism.
Anyway, during the time of Jesus in ancient Israel, many were of course Jewish, including Jesus himself. After Jesus died, his followers started a new religion called Christianity. As Christianity spread, and as more and more Roman emperors converted to the religion, Jews became marginalized in society, even though Jews worshipped the same God as Christians did. Roman rulers viewed the refusal of the Jewish community to accept Jesus as the Messiah as a threat. They straight up passed laws that discriminated against Jews. In the year 399, a law saying Jews couldn’t marry Christians, in 439, a law saying Jews couldn’t hold positions in government. In 531, a law saying they couldn’t appear as witnesses against Christians in court. Rumors began to spread that Jews had horns and tails, and that they killed Christian children and used their blood for rituals.
In the Middle Ages, many societies forced Jews to live in segregated ghettos and wear special clothing. The Catholic Church did not allow Jews to own land, so Jews couldn’t build up wealth through property. However, the Church also didn’t let Christians loan money for profit. Jews could, so they often turned to money lending to build up wealth. Due to the fact that nearly every moneylender happened to be Jewish, this ended up creating a stereotype that Jews were greedy. I mean, people who loan money and charge interest throughout history have rarely been seen in a positive light, amIright? Christian rulers used Jewish money to build extravagant churches and build up armies.
By the 11th century, Christianity dominated Europe, and the main minority religion was Judaism. Jews seemed to be the one group Christians could not convert, seen as outsiders. By this time, the Catholic Church was even teaching that Jews were responsible for the death of Jesus. And then, the Black Death. During the 14th century, the bubonic plague spread quickly across Europe, killing around ⅓ of its entire population. Since this was before science, people had no idea what was causing it. Due to superstition and fear, and without any evidence whatsoever, Christians blamed Jews for causing the plague, accusing them of poisoning wells to spread the disease.

Even though Jews make up less than one quarter of one percent of the world’s population, they are one of the most targeted minority groups in the world. Why all the hate for the Jews?
Before we look at why people hate Jews, also known as Antisemitism, we need to define “Jew.” A Jew is someone who identifies with the cultural community whose traditional religion is Judaism and who traces their ancestry to the ancient Hebrew people of Israel, all the way back to Abraham. Jewish people are considered an ethnoreligious group. Both an ethnic group and a religion. There are plenty who identify as Jews yet are not religious. Israel’s Law of Return, which is the law that gives Jews the right to visit and be a citizen of Israel, says a Jew is someone with either a Jewish mother or who has converted to Judaism.
Anyway, during the time of Jesus in ancient Israel, many were of course Jewish, including Jesus himself. After Jesus died, his followers started a new religion called Christianity. As Christianity spread, and as more and more Roman emperors converted to the religion, Jews became marginalized in society, even though Jews worshipped the same God as Christians did. Roman rulers viewed the refusal of the Jewish community to accept Jesus as the Messiah as a threat. They straight up passed laws that discriminated against Jews. In the year 399, a law saying Jews couldn’t marry Christians, in 439, a law saying Jews couldn’t hold positions in government. In 531, a law saying they couldn’t appear as witnesses against Christians in court. Rumors began to spread that Jews had horns and tails, and that they killed Christian children and used their blood for rituals.
In the Middle Ages, many societies forced Jews to live in segregated ghettos and wear special clothing. The Catholic Church did not allow Jews to own land, so Jews couldn’t build up wealth through property. However, the Church also didn’t let Christians loan money for profit. Jews could, so they often turned to money lending to build up wealth. Due to the fact that nearly every moneylender happened to be Jewish, this ended up creating a stereotype that Jews were greedy. I mean, people who loan money and charge interest throughout history have rarely been seen in a positive light, amIright? Christian rulers used Jewish money to build extravagant churches and build up armies.
By the 11th century, Christianity dominated Europe, and the main minority religion was Judaism. Jews seemed to be the one group Christians could not convert, seen as outsiders. By this time, the Catholic Church was even teaching that Jews were responsible for the death of Jesus. And then, the Black Death. During the 14th century, the bubonic plague spread quickly across Europe, killing around ⅓ of its entire population. Since this was before science, people had no idea what was causing it. Due to superstition and fear, and without any evidence whatsoever, Christians blamed Jews for causing the plague, accusing them of poisoning wells to spread the disease.

On Yom HaShoah, we look at the impact of World War II on Libyan Jewry. Their plight deserves to be better known outside their own communities and their voices heard. From 1938, the Jews of Libya, who lived under Italian rule, were subjected to the Fascist racial laws. They felt the brunt of the back-and-forth World War II battles in the North African desert. Some ended up in Bergen-Belsen Mussolini ordered the expulsion of the Jews of Cyrenaica. Some were sent to a concentration camp in the western mountains of Tripolitania, where a quarter died from disease. Following liberation there were violent pogroms in Tripolitania. More than 90% of Libya’s Jews left for Israel, and the last Jews were forced to flee in 1967.

The story of the Jews of Libya is not well-known. On 25 October 2020, Sephardic World hosted an online speaker event for Sephardic Horizons magazine that explored the final decades of this ancient community, including the Holocaust in Libya and the later expulsion and flight of Libyan Jews from the forces of Arab nationalism in Libya. Today there are no Jews in Libya. Communities survive in Italy, principally in Rome, and in Israel.
Jews had lived in what is now Libya since ancient times, and hundreds of years before the Arab conquest. Italy seized Libya from the Ottoman Empire in 1911. Under Italian rule, most of the Libyan Jewish community lived in Tripoli and Benghazi. Italy supported Germany during the Second World War, during which time Jews faced persecution. The British conquered Libya. The situation of the Jewish community was untenable, and many made their way Displaced Persons camps in Italy.
It is estimated that around 80% of the Jewish population were indigenous Arabic-speaking while maybe 20% traced their origins to the Sephardic diaspora from the Iberian peninsula.

- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move

SUMMARY
=======
The history of the Jews in Libya stretches back to the 3rd century BCE, when Cyrenaica was under Greek rule. The Jewish population of Libya, a part of the Sephardi-Maghrebi Jewish community continued to populate the area continuously until the modern times. During World War II, Libya's Jewish population was subjected to anti-semitic laws by the Fascist Italian regime and deportations by German troops.After the war, anti-Jewish violence caused many Jews to leave the country, principally for Israel, though significant numbers remained in Rome and many later emigrated to various communities in North America. Under Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, who ruled the country from 1969 to 2011, the situation deteriorated further, eventually leading to the emigration of the remaining Jewish population. The last Jew in Libya, 80-year-old Rina Debach, left the country in 2003.

STORYLINE
Demonstrators picketed outside a hotel in Tripoli on Thursday to protest against a formerly exiled Libyan Jewish man's attempt to restore the capital's main synagogue.
A crowd of around 30 people held up signs labelling David Gerbi, who fled to Italy with his family in 1967 as anger rose over the Arab-Israeli war, a zionist.
Others called on Gerbi to renounce his Italian citizenship.
Inside the hotel Gerbi lashed out at the protester and vowed he would not leave.
"All Libya can come to protest against me but I'm not guilty of being Jewish, I'm proud of being Jewish, I'm proud of being Libyan and proud of being Italian. Most of all I'm proud of being a human being that has faith in God, that he knows what is what is right and what is wrong," he said.
Gerbi says he has so far been blocked from trying to restore Tripoli's main synagogue.
On Monday he broke through the bricked up entrance to the crumbling Dar al-Bishi synagogue with a sledgehammer but says he was later warned that armed men were coming from all over Libya and would target him if he did not leave the area.
The head of the National Transitional Council that is governing the country was dismissive of the issue when asked about it at a news conference, saying it was too early to worry about rebuilding a synagogue when revolutionary forces were still fighting supporters of fugitive leader Gadhafi.
Libya's new leaders have promised to lead the oil-rich North African nation to become a democracy after ousting Gadhafi in a civil war that began in mid-February.
But Jews are widely despised in the Arab world because of the conflict between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
Gerbi's family fled to Rome when Arab anger was rising over the war in which Israel captured large swaths of territory from Jordan, Syria and
Egypt.
Two years later, Gadhafi expelled the rest of Libya's Jewish community, which at its peak numbered about 37-thousand.
Gerbi returned to his homeland this summer to join the rebellion that ousted Gadhafi, helping with strategy and psychological treatment.

Ancient history
The oldest trace of a Jewish existence in Libya appears in Sirte, which some Archaeological surveys made on the "Barion" region there dated its Synagogue to the 10th Century BCE, during King Solomon's reign.

While some Ashkenazi Jews may appear white and identify as such, the concept of whiteness is complex.
Historically, Jews were considered a separate and inferior race and yet, over time, antisemitism, assimilation efforts and rising socioeconomic status have influenced the perception of “Jewish whiteness.”
However, this categorization overlooks the experiences of Jews of Color and non-Ashkenazim and further perpetuates the ongoing antisemitism Jews face today.

Even though Jews make up less than one quarter of one percent of the world’s population, they are one of the most targeted minority groups in the world. Why all the hate for the Jews?
Before we look at why people hate Jews, also known as Antisemitism, we need to define “Jew.” A Jew is someone who identifies with the cultural community whose traditional religion is Judaism and who traces their ancestry to the ancient Hebrew people of Israel, all the way back to Abraham. Jewish people are considered an ethnoreligious group. Both an ethnic group and a religion. There are plenty who identify as Jews yet are not religious. Israel’s Law of Return, which is the law that gives Jews the right to visit and be a citizen of Israel, says a Jew is someone with either a Jewish mother or who has converted to Judaism.
Anyway, during the time of Jesus in ancient Israel, many were of course Jewish, including Jesus himself. After Jesus died, his followers started a new religion called Christianity. As Christianity spread, and as more and more Roman emperors converted to the religion, Jews became marginalized in society, even though Jews worshipped the same God as Christians did. Roman rulers viewed the refusal of the Jewish community to accept Jesus as the Messiah as a threat. They straight up passed laws that discriminated against Jews. In the year 399, a law saying Jews couldn’t marry Christians, in 439, a law saying Jews couldn’t hold positions in government. In 531, a law saying they couldn’t appear as witnesses against Christians in court. Rumors began to spread that Jews had horns and tails, and that they killed Christian children and used their blood for rituals.
In the Middle Ages, many societies forced Jews to live in segregated ghettos and wear special clothing. The Catholic Church did not allow Jews to own land, so Jews couldn’t build up wealth through property. However, the Church also didn’t let Christians loan money for profit. Jews could, so they often turned to money lending to build up wealth. Due to the fact that nearly every moneylender happened to be Jewish, this ended up creating a stereotype that Jews were greedy. I mean, people who loan money and charge interest throughout history have rarely been seen in a positive light, amIright? Christian rulers used Jewish money to build extravagant churches and build up armies.
By the 11th century, Christianity dominated Europe, and the main minority religion was Judaism. Jews seemed to be the one group Christians could not convert, seen as outsiders. By this time, the Catholic Church was even teaching that Jews were responsible for the death of Jesus. And then, the Black Death. During the 14th century, the bubonic plague spread quickly across Europe, killing around ⅓ of its entire population. Since this was before science, people had no idea what was causing it. Due to superstition and fear, and without any evidence whatsoever, Christians blamed Jews for causing the plague, accusing them of poisoning wells to spread the disease.
