概要

A Jewish family built a grand home in Baghdad, Iraq in 1937.

France rented it.

Today, it still occupies that same home as its embassy.

But not by paying the family that built it.

By paying the Iraqi government that seized it.

In this episode, Avi Kaner tells the story of Beit Lawee, and the much larger story it represents:

Who the Lawee family were
Jewish life in Iraq before its collapse
The Farhud pogrom of 1941
The mass exodus of Iraqi Jews
The confiscation of Jewish property after 1967
And why, decades later, none of it has been restored

This is not just one house.

It’s an entire lost world.
