Reddit reviews North African Jewry in the Twentieth Century: The Jews of Morocco, Tunisia, and Algeria

Hardly, there were exclusive strands from the beginning as well but it's no secret that Jewish and Arab nationalism both lay claim to the same territory and that increased animosity between the two groups.

Edit: To further clarify Arab nationalists felt threatened by the existence of Jewish nationalism and this gave fuel to already extant hardliners who wanted to exclude Jews from "Arabness" and thus there was a massive uptick in anti-Jewish violence & legislation in the mid-twentieth century. Now this is a bit of generalization and there certainly were other factors that contributed to the exclusion of Jews from Arab nationalism which would become more apparent were we to start dissecting each individual Arab country but it was certainly a general trend. I'm not saying there wasn't plenty of persecution and discrimination prior to that, quite the opposite in fact if you would read the first half of my original comment, but I really don't think it should be controversial to say that relations between Jews and non-Jews have significantly worsened in the MENA region over the last century. All that I was trying to say was that in the first half of the 20th century it wasn't too uncommon to find Middle Eastern Jews who supported Arab national movements because those movements offered them the opportunity to overcome the societal and political disadvantages of Jewishness by embracing Arabness but as the century progressed it became harder and harder for them to do so.

You can see a similar trend in the Ottoman Empire before its collapse. Between the 1890's and 1917 it was very common for Jews to adopt the newly emergent Ottoman national identity for the same exact reasons, especially when they didn't qualify for extraterritorial citizenship of European countries. I highly recommend you read Becoming Ottomans by Cohen and Extraterritorial Dreams to understand that aspect of it.

But I got most of my info on the other stuff from the following resources:
