Billions of dollars worth of property was confiscated, severe restrictions were placed on the Jews and some were executed. Altogether, over 850,000 Jews escaped from Arab nations and Iran in the days leading up to and following the creation of the State of Israel in 1948. Libya, Yemen and Aden are all empty of Jews and Syria has less than twenty Jewish citizens. Iran was home to over 100,000 Jews before 1948, but in 2018 less than 10,000 Jews remained. "The current check is important, of course, for the past as well as the present and especially for these days, all the more so when policy plans such as the "Deal of the Century" of President Trump are on the agenda with all the associated policy implications." The figures cited by the Israeli newspaper Israel Hayom are significantly lower than those from news reports earlier this year claiming that Israel was preparing to demand $250 billion in reparations from Arab states. "When I began working in this important issue, I was amazed to find that there had been no dramatic progress for many years, and in practice had been neglected," said Gamliel, according to Israel Hayom. The methods used to calculate the value of the property were similar to the methods used by the Palestinians, according to Israel Hayom. This is the first time that the value of the abandoned property has been calculated by the State of Israel. Social Equality Minister Gila Gamliel and the National Security Council worked together for several years to calculate the conservative estimates without considering the difference in value between the dollar before 1948 and the current value of the dollar. Libya owes the second largest payment of $6.7 billion, followed by Yemen with a $2.6 debt, Syria with a $1.4 billion debt and Aden (which at one point was separate from the rest of Yemen) with a $700 million debt. The largest payment being demanded by Israel is from Iran who they claim owe the Jewish people $31.3 billion. The Israeli government, or lack there of, is seeking $150 billion in compensation for property left behind by Jewish refugees from Arab nations and Iran who were exiled from their homes when the State of Israel was founded, according to Israel Hayom.
