I was told Mizrahi jews, at least, had as high a genetic connection to Israel as the Palestinians, but I found out that population is just 2% of Israelis. The palis are actually WAY more decendants of ancient jews than 98% of those who self-identify as jews today. The second thing I found out is that the Star of David has pretty much no connection to the Levant and is some European thing. And that the Menorah and Hamsa are generic canaanite/west-semitic symbols and not exclusive to Judah in any way. I'm shocked, I feel like I have been lied to this whole time.
Told by who?
You can't "own" earth, dumbass. That's the whole point... Palestinians were living there and somehow Israel was formed and then they started genociding them because they consider that land "theirs", even going to the point of exterminating those who resided there so as to not have to share anything. But what is there? Rubble?... the olive trees are almost gone. They've bombed the fuck out of everything.
>>18579083Let me guess, a Pakistani told you this?
>>18579083Palestinian Christians and Samaritans have a higher connection than Palestinian Muslims because the Muslims got zutted.
>>18579093No, it's apparently settled science. They dug up a shitload of ancient skeletons all across Israel and Lebanon and then did genetic testing on all modern groups and they found that current day Palis and Lebanese are pretty much identical, but for Jews it's only Mizrahis from Lebanon and Syria who are closely related, all the other ones are half-bloods at best. And those Mizrahis only make up 2% of Israelis. So the Palis are more jewish than the Israelis! FUCKING LOL
>>18579101Not quite, modern pali muslims have sub-saharan ancestry.
>>18579101I repeat, who told you this?
>>18579101Provide the peer reviewed studies for us to view. If it's settled science, there should be more than one on the subject.

>>18579148The table is Gemini trying to synthesize the data, so I cant speak to the accuracy of every subgroup
>>18579148Just stumbled on this yourself huh?
>>18579083>but I found out that population is just 2% of Israelis.Who told you this, a Pakistani? The actual % of Mizrahi in Israel is over 60-70%
>>18579162Lebanese and Syrian Mizrahis. The rest of the Mizrahis have lower local heritage, and some of them have very little and much more from their place of (diaspora) origin
>>18579159well i tend to spend way too much time on things that I find interesting
>>18579187So you weren't told?
>>18579190Aha ok you mean what I wrote in the OP? That was threads on /his/ some time ago that got me interested in this whole line of inquiry. My 4chan activity tend to be very intense short periods and long periods of cold turkey
You don't say? It's literally a settler colony made of psychopathic criminals following a supremacist cult from all around the globe except the place they claim indigenity
>>18579194>4chan told me X and I believe itThe fucking STATE of you
>>18579182>Lebanese and Syrian Mizrahis. The rest of the Mizrahis have lower local heritage, and some of them have very little and much more from their place of (diaspora) originA lot of them from Iraq and Yemen. You look at them and half are Middle Eastern looking motherfuckers and the other half are Polish/Russian mutt mixes with round faces.https://youtu.be/5eJqw0t3e9c>Star of David has pretty much no connection to the Levant and is some European thing. And that the Menorah and Hamsa are generic canaanite/west-semitic symbols and not exclusive to Judah in any way.Well they went with the Star of David because the founders of Israel were secular nationalists for the most part. There are a lot of Jews there who are not religious, which is a thing that blows people's minds.
>>18579223Would you rather live in a settler colony of jews or a colony of jeets wewuzzing as arabs?
Also this might shock you but this is Shiri Maimon, an Israeli singer whose family background is Algerian and Syrian. The DJ at Tel Aviv Pride this year which she's singing at is descended from Iraqi Jews (he's also the gayest man alive)https://youtu.be/zE9fsSiVj6YAlso if you look at the largest immigrant group by country of origin it's... the Soviet Union. Maybe Western, maybe not. Anyways a big problem for the Palestinians is that the Arabs dumped their own Jews on top of their heads. There's no solution to the conflict unless the Jews and Palestinians reconcile and cease attempting to drive the other side out, they would have to come to see themselves as essentially the same people in a single state (fat chance of that happening though).
>>18579253right, fat chancethat's what makes it ironic that it turns out they literally are the same people
>>18579518A lot of those Jews left those Arab countries because it was just not viable, and they had their citizenship revoked and assets seized in certain countries like Iraq, basically the message was that it was time to go, and if you didn't then bad things could happen to you. Also done in retaliation for Jews expelling Palestinians from their homes, but the Palestinian leadership at the time was like plz stop, like why would send MORE Jews there. Anyways that's why this stuff about how these people are not "from there" doesn't work, it's not like they're going to be oh sorry we didn't know that. (Also the ones from Europe don't buy the narrative because they were driven out of Europe for not being sufficiently white or European.) This doesn't absolve Israel as being exclusionary though since the whole idea was to create a Jewish nation-state there.
>>18579579Well, whether they are 100% ethnically Jews or not, Judaism has a long history in Israel, so they belong for that reason alone, do they not? And so do the palis. Everyone should have had that DNA research in 1948 and things might have gone much more smoothly. Ben Gurion and others guessed it, but had no proof at the time.
