The Holocaust affected the Middle East in two major ways:
The first and most lasting effect was the Creation of the State of Israel, which was realized in an attempt to give the Jews of Europe and the Middle East a homeland where they would not be subject to the type of persecution to which they had long suffered in Europe predominantly but the Arab World as well.
The second effect was the "Nazification" of Arab Nationalism. In many ways, leading Arab Nationalists became entranced by the Nazi ideology and began to enact anti-Jewish actions. In Tunisia, a mini-Holocaust also occurred during the Vichy French Occupation. In 1941, in Iraq, a pogrom called the Farhud occurred in which 200 Jews were killed and thousands severely wounded. After the wars conclusion, there were increasing recriminations against Jews in the Middle East. This prompted a mass Jewish exodus from the Arab World (850,000 people) from 1950-1952. There is still a policy of Judenrein in certain Middle Eastern countries like Saudi Arabia.
