         politics, not religion.

         Ciamak Moresadegh, chairman of the Tehran Jewish Committee. "We have common problems with Iranian Muslims. If a war were to
         start, we would also be a target. When a missile lands, it does not ask if you are a Muslim or a Jew. It lands."

One wave came when Jews sought to escape
         Assyrian king Nebuchadnezzar II around 680 BC; others were freed from slavery by Cyrus the Great with the conquest of Babylon
         some 140 years later.
