I apologize for any confusion. However, the statement that thousands of Jewish people were blamed for the Black Death and faced persecution is historically accurate. During the outbreak of the Black Death in the 14th century, Jewish communities were often unjustly accused of causing the plague and faced violent attacks, mass killings, and forced expulsions from Western European countries. This persecution was fueled by scapegoating and anti-Semitic beliefs that were prevalent at the time. Once again, I apologize if my previous response was not clear.
