Your statistics are WRONG! You are using them to DISINFORM and to
fuel your own hatred of arabs, your "natural enemies", so to
speak. 
Let me correct you on at least one item : The jewish population in
Tunisia today is at least 5,000 including the family and parents
of former israeli general Moshe Dayan. Until 1960, the tunisian
finance minister was a jew (talk about discrimination!!). 
Most jews from arab countries fared much better than their
co-religionaries of the rest of the world; certainly much better
than the german jews and the european jews-zionists.
They (sephardic jews) emigrated to Israel with the consent and
encouragement of most arab regimes (after all, it is very easy to
keep a second-class citizenry from emigrating). 
This brings another theme which is very hard for jews - and
especially the pro-zionists and pro-israeli jews - to comprehend:
Arabs generally are not anti-semitic, nor anti-jews. THEY ARE ANTI-
ISRAELI. AND FOR GOOD REASONS.

The public hanging of a jew in Irak is a famous example of a
successfull spy who tripped. The hanged guy penetrated the top
brass of the irakian army, government and business elite. He
operated for the israeli intelligence for about 4 years before
he was discovered. (These are israel's own public recognitions).
