The main difficulty faced by immigrants in Israel, especially in the 1950s, and particularly by those coming from Morocco, was the concept of melting pot, the forced conception of forging the average Israeli by imposing that they gave up the symbols and traditional values they brought along in order to absorb the values and symbols of the society in which they started living and with which they were to be merged.

A principal dificuldade enfrentada pelos imigrantes em Israel, em especial na década de 1950, e em particular pelos provenientes do Marrocos, foi o conceito de “cadinho de fusão”, a concepção forçada de forjar o israelense médio, com a imposição de abdicar de símbolos e valores tradicionais que trouxeram consigo, com a intenção de que absorvessem valores e símbolos da sociedade em que passaram a viver e à qual deveriam se fundir.
