Answer
Goodbye Israel Section!?
As I'm sure y'all are all aware, Yahoo! claims to go "read-only" on 4/20/21 EST. That's only 2.5 hours from the time of this post. This actually may be the last post here on the Yahoo! Answers Israel section, and I thought I'd take some time to say goodbye.
I started here in 2009, as a bored student who just wanted to answer some question one day. I don't remember the exact nature of the question, but all I do remember is that it was here in the Israel section. Since then, I've answered thousands of questions over two accounts and earned "top contributor" status in many categories, losing my first one but maintaining this current one for nine years. I've had fun, but unfortunately Y!A has just slowed down and become way too buggy and trolly, so I can't say that this news was all that surprising.
I'm not sure how many of you will see this, since there is little time. I'm also not sure if any of y'all will be the people I've interacted with over the years, since as this site has declined we've seen many of the consistent contributors disappear. I appreciate most of you (including some of the very pro-Palestinian ones) and I wish everyone the best.

Israel2 weeks agoWhat would Arabs think about the descendants of the Jews who are not considered Jewish for Jews?
Mainly the ones descendants from their patrilinear side who went to live in other countries and they cant even immigrate to Israel, even if they want. Jews consider others Jewish by matrilinear side. How would Arabs see this group of people.
I would like to say I am very sad about this situation between the two children of Abraham. I wish there was not conflit between both. Would the Arabs see this group as Jewish? Or only if the person is Zionist? The ones who do not follow Judaism. I am just curious about, that is all.
I still see the Jews as family and Arabs are our Abraham far relatives. I dont hate any of both. Just letting it clear.

Lesotho was and is completely surrounded by South Africa. Somehow, it managed to avoid the apartheid regime. If Lesotho could do it, why not the other people in South Africa?
