  1.  @afroman6172  No more like 10,000 years The genetic mutation that leads to blue eyes is believed to have occurred around 6,000 to 10,000 years ago. Researchers have identified a specific mutation in the OCA2 gene, which affects melanin production in the iris. I have photos of the Jews in Yemen from 1949/50 and so can you. What's your point. The DNA is there. We're talking past each other. My belief is the fictional character of Mohammed was written by diaspora Jews in the 6th Century as the Byzantine and Persians were killing each other off around Jerusalem. Even the Qur'an description is more like the gardens of the Negev than the deserts of Arabian Oman. By the time of Jesus, any Jew could have easily had Blue Eyes and Blonde Hair, the place had been a crossroad of civilization by that time for 2 millennium.

  2. Both Netanyahu and his mother were born in what is now Israel. Bibi's father from Poland, but not him, nor his mother.

  4. "Europe" as in ITALY and eastern Mediterranean, not the Caucuses. No history of Turkic culture or language in the Ashkenazi.

  5.  @FactStorm  What you call "Palestinians" have no "rights"? Tell that to UNRWA established in 1949 a year after the nation/state of Israel. Jordan was given nation/state status in 1946. What does their DNA tell you, and in connection to what your call "Palestinians"?

  6. The region was controlled for 100s of years by non-Arab Muslims, a Turkic peoples who spoke an Altaic language which includes Mongolic, and Tungusic language families, along with Korean and Japanese. In WW1 those Turkic people lost a war and ceded the land in a Peace Treaty to the Allied Powers. Both Arabs and Jews fought and died in that war for a promise of autonomy in that region. The Jews were willing to share, the Arabs were not: Report on the State of Palestine presented to the Right Honourable Mr. Winston Churchill P.C., M.P. by the Executive Committee of the Third Arab Palestine Congress. Jerusalem, March 28, 1921.

  7. Khazaria is a myth disproven by both DNA and Linguistics. Ashkenazi show no Turkic in language or custom, it is German/Hebrew. Stop with the taqiyya. FYI, Odessa is closer to Jerusalem that Oman.

  8. Yemenite Jews have some of the highest concentrations of Natufian in the region. There are now 450,000 Yemenite Jews in Israel. Imagine their lives in Yemen right now? LOL

  9. Majority of Israelis do not have European ancestry. Also, there are 1.9 million Arab citizens of Israel, 20% of the population and growing.

  10.  @Michael-wq7qx  Agreed, it's an argument against the "settler colonialism" claim, or that Ashkenazi are fake Jews from the Caucuses. I'm in the Southwest of America, the vast majority of Mexicans have DNA from North Africa/Spain/Arabia. The physical resemblance is not a coincidence. These arguments of DNA are irrelevant to me. During WW1 Jews fought with the British to free the region from the Ottoman/Turk for a promise of future autonomy. The Ottoman lost and ceded the region to the Allied Powers in a peace treaty. The Jews were willing to share, some Arabs were not, and still don't. Even if the region only had 8-12% indigenous Jews in 1900, that's not nothing, and it's fun to look at a map and see Odessa is closer to Jerusalem than Oman. My cousins walked to Tel-Aviv from Odessa, not something I'd recommend doing from Oman.
