On my office wall hangs a framed print, created by Australian Jewish artist and friend Camille Fox. Her original painting is titled "Last Passover in Baghdad." It depicts a gathering of 15 Jews of all ages, gathered around an elegant dining table, with a moonlit Middle East cityscape in the background. Their faces are mostly troubled and uncertain. Between 1950 and 1952, nearly all of Iraq's endangered Jewish population had to flee their ancient homeland and resettle in Israel; the same happened in several other Middle Eastern countries.
