Iraq Opens First Jewish Museum Amid Community's Near Extinction
תורגם ותומצת מתוך The Jerusalem Post על ידי baba
Iraq's first Jewish museum, the "Jewish Shamash Museum," opened in Baghdad this weekend at the historic Shamash School site. The museum aims to preserve the history of Iraq's ancient Jewish community, which has dwindled from an estimated 150,000 before 1941 to just a handful today. While the museum celebrates the community's heritage, questions have been raised about who funded the restoration and the implications of preserving a heritage site that few Jews can visit.
