The Arabs have nothing to do with this they happen to rule the land Jews in exile dreamt of living in for over 2000 years
In the 20th century Jews started to be treated bad in Arab/Muslim countries actually earlier in places like Yemen or Iran Which is why so many emigrated from there during the ottoman era
Yes Israeli school do teach about the Sephardic golden age not that much but it's not like we are taught about Ashkenazi history we talk more about revolutions than anything else
Just to add to the first point the holocaust reached Arab Maghreb and Iraq so it wasn't only the Germans

The ottomans took the most Jews after the Alhambra decree but Morocco was either 2nd or 3rd
Muslims didn't immediately restore Jewish access to Jerusalem

A. It was barely true I live in front of a detention camp used to house illegal immigrants before either working them in pow conditions or sending them to sea or if they were lucky to Cyprus
B. It was the ruling British policy that decided which people got to enter not Arabs or Muslims who were mostly opposed to immigration even during the Holocaust
