[edit] Disputed

Comments in this article are not backed up by their sources or are the person point of view of an individual editor. Specifically, the line that says "many Americans and Israelis of Tajik Jewish descent have negative views towards Tajikistan." While this may have an element of truth to it, it needs to be cited and rewritten in a more nuanced fashion to reflect diversity in opinion. Also, the New York Times sources does not state that the there are more Ashkenazim rather than Bukharan Jews in the article, though it does state that there are not many Jews left in Tajikistan:David Straub (talk) 03:49, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
