Former Soviet Union, Morocco, Poland, Romania, Yemen, Iran, Algeria+Tunisia, North America, Germany+Austria, Turkey, Libya, Egypt, Bulgaria+Greece, India+Pakistan, Argentina, Hungary, former Czechoslovakia, and South Africa; plus several hundred thousand from the rest of Asia, South America and Europe combined (small numbers from each unspecified country in these regions).
The statistic of 20.7% Arabs includes about 185,000 Bedouins, 130,000 Druze, and 7,000 Maronites.
The statistic of 4.3% who are neither Jewish nor Arabs, includes relatively small groups of non-Arab Christians, non-Arab Muslims, Copts, Samaritans, non-Jewish Argentines, Armenians, Circassians, Assyrians, non-Jewish Slavs, Roma, and smaller numbers of others.
