https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mizrahi_Jews says 3.2 million in Israel https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel says Israels population is 9.8 million of which 73% are jewish. So 3.2 million Mizrahi Jews (oriental) of 5.8 Israel Jews. I presume the rest must be Ashkenazi Jews (european). All i'm saying is the categorization in indigeious and settlers isn't all that easy.

\edit: Sorry, You are not the person I replied to. So thank you for the facts-delivery!
