shas means NOTHING! what connection does the iranian or the bucharian jew to the "Sfaradim"?
maybe their dark skin or the arabian looks.

yet most of them in israel call themselfes that way (that is by not being a mizrachi that is "eastern" (asian or african) in their common logic)  
as i said 50 synagogues its about 5000 people. but there is no point for this conversation because no one has any details
