I am not a Zionist or a Communist. I am an Iraqi patriot.
About me / Bio:
Shafiq Ades was a wealthy Iraqi-Jewish businessman of Syrian origins. He migrated to Iraq after the First World War and established the Ford car company agency in Iraq. He also partnered with a Muslim in purchasing and selling military metal scrap. He had business and personal ties with high-profile Iraqi notables and officials, and was the richest Jew in Iraq. He was accused of being a Zionist and a Communist, and of selling arms to Israel. He was sentenced to death in a show trial and hanged in front of his mansion in Basra in 1948. His execution was a turning point for the Jewish community in Iraq, which faced increasing persecution and violence. Many Jews left Iraq after his death, and his family eventually immigrated to Israel.
