📌 Jews: The Greatest Slave Traders in History

Historical records show that slave trade was a major commercial activity among the Jews. According to the Torah (Leviticus 25:42–46), Jews are prohibited from enslaving fellow Jews, but are permitted to enslave non-Jews and even pass them on to their children as permanent property.

🔁 Since Christian law forbade enslaving Christians, and Islamic law prohibited selling Muslim slaves, Jewish merchants became middlemen, selling Christian slaves in Muslim lands and Muslim slaves in Christian territories.

📝 The 9th-century geographer Ibn Khordadbeh described slaves as the primary commodity of Jewish traders. Slaves owned by Jews were not allowed to convert to Christianity, lest the owners lose their “property,” which fueled tensions between Jewish merchants and the Church during the Middle Ages.

📚 Jacob Marcus, a Jewish historian, wrote in the Encyclopaedia Britannica that Jews held dominant control over slave trade in medieval Europe. David Duke also noted shocking reports of abuse and sexual violence by Jewish slave owners against Christian children.

⚓ During the rise of global trade, Jewish financiers and merchants organized vast slave networks, especially using the Atlantic triangular trade:

From Europe to Africa: guns, liquor, and trinkets

From Africa to the Americas: African slaves

From the Americas to Europe: sugar, tobacco, and other goods

💰 Jewish merchants often dominated slave auctions, as cash was in Jewish hands, and slaves were often bought cheaply and resold at up to 300% profit after harvest seasons.

⚠️ The conditions on slave ships were inhumane. Around 10–15% of the African captives died en route to the Americas due to crowding, disease, and starvation—some estimates go as high as 45–80%.

📊 In early 19th-century North America, 75% of Jewish families reportedly owned black slaves. In the South, Jewish-owned farms were run by slave labor. By 1820, around 40% of American Jewish families owned one or more slaves.

🎬 Yet, Hollywood erases these facts. In Amistad, a film on the transatlantic slave trade by Jewish director Steven Spielberg, no Jewish figures appear, though they were central to the actual history.

📖 Dr. Israel Shahak, an anti-Zionist Jewish scholar, quoting Trevor-Roper, confirms:

"Jews were the principal slave traders between the Christian West and the Muslim world."

He also cites Maimonides, who permitted Jews to kidnap non-Jewish children for slave trading.

📍 Jews were also experts in captive castration (making eunuchs) and the sale of white European girls (Saqliba) to Arab elites. Cities like Verdun and Bejana were Jewish hubs for such practices. These girls were often blonde and blue-eyed, highly prized by the aristocrats of Al-Andalus.

🔍 While Jewish historians acknowledge their leading role in the slave trade, anyone who speaks about it today is labeled “anti-Semitic” by Zionist organizations.
