“After the founding of the state of Israel, Syria’s Jews became captives in their own homeland. They were subject to terrible abuse and draconian laws, the first of which literally imprisoned them: ‘The Jewish right to emigrate is completely forbidden. This applies even to Jews in Syria who hold foreign passports.’ That was just one of twelve outrageous edicts, including “Jews are forbidden to own radios or telephones, or to maintain postal contact with the outside world; no telephones may be installed in Jewish homes.” Furthermore, all Jewish properties were confiscated by the state when the owners died.” nationalreview/article/358506/thank-god-there-are-almost-no-jews-syria-now-lela-gilbert
