[edit] The relationship with the Sunni Muslim majority has suffered in recent years
"The relationship with the Sunni Muslim majority has suffered in recent years". Is this true? Only if you assume it was better to begin with. Jayjg (talk) 16:48, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
- It was certainly better to begin with. It went from having ups and downs to being almost untenable for any Jews to remain in these lands. There are a few left in Tunisia, and some in the Spanish possessions of Ceuta and Melilla, I imagine there are a few scattered holdouts elsewhere, but within living memory there were Jews in every city (and some other areas) throughout the Maghreb. -- Jmabel | Talk 06:19, August 5, 2005 (UTC)
Certainly better? That's a pretty bold assertion. From what I can tell, like was generally pretty grim for the Jews there until the European powers took over; then things got much better. Do you have a source for "certainly better"? Jayjg (talk) 15:12, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
