Ashkenazim (Originate inEurope , Jewish):
Ashkenazim (Originate in
When they got to Israel : Always strive for perfection, innocent, think everything is suspicious, smart, rich, think they are the best, snooty, very polite, cold hearted, not generous, don’t show emotions, quiet. Enjoy theater, fine art, fancy restaurants, traveling, hotels, museums, symphonic concerts, classical music.
How they see the Israeli culture: Horrified because of the way Mizrahim Originate in Arab States , Yemen , India , Pakistan , etc’, Jewish) act. Hate the unorganization . They think the country is ruined. Not pretty European classical culture. Too outgoing, noisy, cussing and casual. Horrible music and art. They think that the Mizrahi culture is too dominant and not polite, classy. They believe most of Israel is dumb and low quality.
How they think their culture affected Israeli culture: They helped it from turning into a giant mess. They brought quality music and art, literature and education. Without them, There would be no culture to appreciate.
What they think about blending the two cultures: Horrible! It ruined their classic beautiful culture! Israel could be so much more advanced without the Mizrahim! “They are way too loud and obnoxious! They have no values, they ruin the beauty of our country” as my great grandfather said.
This is a reliable source because this is what my Israeli relatives said. Still, it is very bias because my great grandfather, his wife, my grandmother and grandfather are Ashkenazim so that is their viewpoint. They have no conflicting evidence because this is their beliefs. They didn’t mean to use connotation because I didn’t ask them to try to persuade why they are right: I simply asked for their opinions, and also it was in Hebrew so it was hard for me to translate. They didn’t really have a purpose, because I asked them these questions, they didn’t do this for their own.
