There were a number of factors that contributed to the exodus. From the source you provided,

The Jewish exodus from the Muslim world occurred during the 20th century, when approximately 900,000 Jews migrated, fled, or were expelled from Muslim-majority countries throughout Africa and Asia, primarily as a consequence of the establishment of the State of Israel. Large-scale migrations were also organized, sponsored, and facilitated by Zionist organizations such as Mossad LeAliyah Bet, the Jewish Agency, and the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society.

Nevertheless, I notice that you do not attempt to argue on the merits of the Rabbi's assertion that anti-Zionism should not equate to antisemitism.

It goes back to my first question to you, what does this make Netanyahu? Uncle Joe Jun 20 #16

My answer was implied in my response. Netanyahu is just another attention whore in this respect. Beastly Boy Jun 20 #17

Netanyahu is an indicted war criminal for possible genocide and ethnic cleansing, deliberately starving 2+ million Uncle Joe Jun 20 #18
