The "109 Countries" Lie: Debunked
Neo-Nazis claim Jews were "expelled from 109 countries." The ADL traces this lie to Bible Believer's Church in Australia—a Holocaust-denying hate group. Their methodology? Count cities as countries, count France 6 times, throw in ancient wars, and you get... 109. Let's do the honest count: Medieval/Early Modern Europe: 15-18 actual country-wide expulsions: - England 1290 (Edward I's Edict) - Spain 1492 (Alhambra Decree) - Portugal 1496 (Manuel I) - France 1182, 1254, 1306, 1322, 1359, 1394 - Hungary 1360 - Austria 1420-1421, 1669-1670 - Bavaria 1442, 1551 - Papal States 1569, 1593 - Naples 1288, 1495, 1510 - Sicily 1493, Navarre 1498 - Visigothic Spain 612 Arab/Muslim World: 10-13 total: - Early: Medina 7th century, Almohades 12th century (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Muslim Spain), Yemen 1679 - Modern 1947-1972: Iraq (120,000), Egypt (75,000+), Libya (35,000), Yemen again (49,000), Algeria (140,000), Morocco (265,000), Tunisia (100,000), Syria (30,000) - Honest total: 25-30 across 2,700 years. One expulsion every 90-100 years across the entire planet. Now watch the fraud: Frankfurt (1614) — They call it a "country." It was a Free Imperial City *inside* the Holy Roman Empire. Not a nation. Nuremberg (1499) — Same thing. City, not country. Vienna (1669) — Habsburg capital. Part of Austria, which they *already counted separately*. France appears SIX TIMES (1182, 1254, 1306, 1322, 1359, 1394). That's ONE country having a cycle of expulsion-readmission-expulsion. They count it as six "countries." Bavaria appears FOUR TIMES (1276, 1442, 1551, 1701). Same duchy, different centuries. They count each as a separate "expulsion." Babylonian Captivity (587 BCE)? That was a military conquest—soldiers destroying Jerusalem and taking prisoners of war. Not an expulsion decree. Roman suppressions (73 CE, 135 CE)? Military defeats after Jewish revolts. Not government policy expelling Jews from lands. Still think 109 is real? Wikipedia lists EVERY displacement event in Jewish history—ancient wars, medieval expulsions, Crusade massacres, pogroms, the Holocaust, refugee movements, everything—and gets ~90 total entries across 2,700 years.

It’s irrelevant how many countries they were kicked out of, what’s relevant is that not once was it the Jewish people’s fault. First of all, collective punishment is always wrong. Second of all, the reasons behind said expulsions were always; religious hostility, scapegoating, economic usefulness (kick Jews out when in debt to them), racism, conspiracy theories, social envy, crusades and religious wars, plague etc. England expelled them in 1290 due to debt issues and church pressure. France expelled them in 1306/1394 due to financial motives and antisemitism from the monarchy. Spain and Portugal expelled them in 1492/97 because the Alhambra Decree forced Jews to convert or leave as part of the Catholic reconquista. Hungary expelled them in 1360 scapegoating them for the black plague. German states expelled them especially during times of plague or war. Russia expelled them in the 19th century to the Pale of Settlement alongside pogroms. None of these were acts of justice, but of religious and ethnic persecution. It’s like saying that because slavery happened in 120+ countries, it’s justified.
