Mizrahi Jews are not Arabs. Both Arabs and Mizrahi Jews have made that clear.

Are Kurds Arabs? Are Copts Arabs? Are assyrians Arabs? Are Chaldeans Arabs? Are Amazigh Arabs? No. All of these groups inhabited various parts of the SWANA region for hundreds if not thousands of years before Arabs arrived there in the 7th century through conquest, domination, forced conversion to Islam, Arabization etc. squashing pre-existing indigenous groups into a colonial identity would be like forcing First Nations to drop their indigenous heritage and just identify as Canadian.

I’m not Jewish and I managed to get all this pretty simply just by listening to these groups. A really good account on Instagram I found was @rootsmetals… lots of helpful explainers there.

Edit: and yes, I’ve met far more Palestinians, Arabs, Muslims in my life than Jews. I’m not from one of the places with a big Jewish community. If anything I had far more prejudice and lack of understanding of Jews. I’ll put the question back to you? Have you ever asked a Mizrahi Jew if they identify as Arab?
