Igbo Paper In November, the Israeli government granted just about 10,000 Ethiopians that are said to have a jewish bloodline, the right to convert to Judaism and become legal citizens of Israel. (Onyedimmakachukwwu Obiukwu) In the 19th and 20th century, the Faalash Mura were forced to practice Christianity by military alliances.
