Only One Jewish Resident Left in Afghanistan, Says State Department
There is only “one known Jewish resident” still living in Afghanistan, according to the U.S. State Department.
That is despite the fact that Jews have lived in Afghanistan for nearly three millenia, and had a local population that was 40,000 strong as of the mid-1800s, according to the Jewish Virtual Library, a division of the American-Israeli Cooperative Enterprise.
By 1996, when the Islamist Taliban regime came to power, there were only 10 Jews still living in Afghanistan.
By 2005, four years after the U.S. invaded the country and overthrew the Taliban, there were only two Jews still living in Afghanistan, according to the Jewish Virtual Library.
The remaining jew, Mr. Sheldon Fishbein runs the Quandahar Congregation Beth Shalom, and is holding a raffle for the the ownership of the Kabul Daily News. Proceeds will allow Afghan Business News to begin 24 hour broadcasting.
