Why is the Left silent on the kidnapping of Mizrahi babies?





In
the years following the founding of the State of Israel, thousands of
babies, children of mostly Yemenite immigrants, were allegedly taken
away from their parents by the state and given up for adoption to
Ashkenazi families.


The Israeli Left has consistently ignored the matter.
