Original Note:
Avi Shlaim's argument that there were no problems before 1948, is incorrect. In 1941 the "Farhud" occurred in Baghdad, where at least 180 jews were killed. BBC: "The anti-Semitism that Hitler had successfully exported to Iraq made life unbearable for the Jewish community." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-13610702
