so interesting article Nevertelles a comment You said "Sultan Bayezid II sent Kemal Reis to save the Sephardic Jews of Spain from the Spanish Inquisition in 1492 and granted them permission to settle in the Ottoman Empire." Well the text is writen as if the Spanish Inquisition were killing jews As you know that was not true The King of spains give orders not to kill jews if not to send it away if they are not convert to cristianity In order to clarify please check yorur text Ferdinant Of Aragon was not a Hitler an the Spanis Inquisition in spite of Anglos propaganda tales fortunatly were not for us the German SS The conflict was mantaining in term an level of religion not of racism ( as did the King of Portugal) And finaly thank for your article.

Great work. Just a few edits. It is inconsitant with Wiki style to place Thessaly as Turkey in at the time in question. At the time of Alexander, Thessally would be part of Greece. Wiki style uses Byzantine Empire for Eastern Roman Empire. I have not removed the original I have added Byszantine as well, which is factually correct. After all there are contuation notations during the Byzantine period.
Indeed there is a lot of valuable information to add in the period before 1300 where there seems to be a a bit of a gap. It makes it seem as though there were not commuinties, when in fact there were many famous communities throughout Asia Minor in Hellenistic and Byzantine times. They should be the same emphasis as the period after the expulsion from Spain, but it is not to difficult to put togethr a couple of paragraphs
Wiki style has these as histories in a place, for example The Jews of France etc. 138.88.243.94 00:13, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
26,000 Jews in Turkey doesn't seem like that much, given how many were in the Ottoman Empire before. I understand the Ottoman Empire was much larger than Turkey, but I'd imagine at least there would be a lot around the commercial and political center in Istanbul, especially when you mention Jews fleeing from Europe to Turkey during WWII. Was there a mass migration to Israel? Were there any ethnic tensions in modern times that prompted large movements? The article makes it seems like all the Jews that went to Turkey never left, but 26,000 isn't that much, so it seems odd to me given how much was written earlier about the impressive vibrant midevil and early modern Turkish Jew community
The vast majority of the European Jews (mainly Ashkenazi) who fled to Turkey from persecution and Nazi extermination later migrated to the newly founded State of Israel. The majority of the long established Turkish Jewish community (almost all Sephardic) also migrated to Israel since its establishment in 1948, especially in the 1950's and 1960's mainly due to economic reasons, rather than persecution or idealism. It is estimated that there are 120,000 Sephardic Jews of Turkish descent living in Israel. Despite the economic hardships in the past, the Turkish Jews are the wealthiest community in Turkey today.
A historical article which is Npov and not dedicated to smearing Ottomans and Turks at last... you cant imagine how rare it is in wikipedia.
There is a page in the Hebrew wikipedia on Daniel de Fonseca. דניאל דה פונסקה -- YoavD 10:56, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
This article contains some strange factual errors - for instance, the Ottoman Parliament did not meet between 1877 and 1908 - although there were Jewish representatives in both the first period and the later.
Also, the Ottomans were not involved in a war in 1885 - after the Congress of Berlin, the next war was with Greece in 1897, and then Italy in 1911.
There are also some serious issues with references - for instance, 500,000 seems way too large a number for the Jewish population, and in any case there is no source given for this number. Jpiccone ( talk) 18:56, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

I recall hearing on NPR that there is an island off the coast of Turkey with a Jewish majority. However I haven't yet been able to find out which island that is (since Turkey has so many). I'm wondering if such an island could play a role in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process; specifically, I think some Israelis might be more willing to reach a compromise with the Palestinians if they would receive said island as compensation for whatever territory they would end up ceding under such a treaty.

You perhaps talk about the Rhodes Island? It is part of Greece. However it is indeed very close to the Anatolian coasts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.132.96.98 ( talk) 17:41, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
My book "Dissent and Heterodoxy" which is reference for the Jews in Yemen in footnote 24 here, deals with the Babis and Baha'is in the Ottoman Empire and Turkey and doesn't have any reference to the Jews in the OE or Turkey except that I mention Jewish messianic currents in Yemen in the 19th century. The same is true for footnote 21 of the Wiki article "History of the Jews in the Ottoman Empire". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Necademic ( talk • contribs) 13:34, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
