The video above is an interesting mini-documentary I found regarding Jewish Iranians living in Iran. The blog features the life of Iranian Jews living in Iran who lead normal lives practicing their religion openly amongst Iranian Muslims in Iran.
It really is a shame that there is a misconception that Jewish and Iranian, or Jewish and Muslim people are "against" each other. Judaism and Islam are 2 of the oldest and widely practiced religions in the world. For people or nations to be against each other because of their religion is ridiculous. How can one claim to dislike an entire population who practices a religion?
Frequently, people associate Zionism or Islamic Fundamentalism to Jewish or Muslim people, but this is a huge mistake. An entire religion is not responsible for the people who have taken religion too far or for political purposes.
