IPalestinians are basically the descendants of ancient Jews who got forcibly converted.

If I recall correctly they had a huge sneed fest the last time they were in Egypt because they didn't feel like building the pyramids or some shit.

Why would Egyptians want a bunch of their ex-slaves who were too lazy to work the first time and demanded to be freed to come back?

I stand with the Capy on this one

They are pretty closely related to the other Levantine Arab populations and the prehistoric population from the copper age so yeah they are actually more closely related to Israelites than Jewish people are, outside of a few subsets of middle eastern Jews.

Even Ashkenazim have more ancient Levantine ancestry than the average Palestinian.

Regardless, if they still follow the laws of Abraham, still 100% Jewish in the eyes of God :marseyangel: :marseyembrace:

Where do you think the Palestinians came from? Mars?

Ashkenazim are basically of 50/50 Levantine/euro descent. Basically all their mitochondrial DNA is Central European.

Palestinians are like 90/10 Levantine gulf. like that genetic mapping basically shows that Palestinians are the closest relatives to actual israelites. It wasn't really possible to completely replace a population before like the 1800s unless it was the native Americans getting sick.

What people think of Palestinians is probably more applicable to middle eastern Jews, who are like a 60/40 mix of gulf Arabs and Levantine Arabs.

I like showing this on /r/Judaism to make people sneed.

:marseyconfused:

They have at least 70% Levantine ancestry though. With the traditionally eastern Ashkenzasim having higher rates.

And that's just for Ashkenazim, other Euro Jewish groups like Sephardim, Romaniote, Greek, Mountain, Caucasus Jews have much higher rates despite being outside the Levant, averaging around 90-95% Levantine in ancestry along with Mizrahim.

Palestinians being more Israelite than the actual Israelites is just a meme, if not outright cope, that hides behind Arab DNA being almost indiscernible from Levantine ethnic groups (Jews/Samaritans, Maronites, Arameans) due to shared ethnolinguistic origins from Southern Levant-Northern Arabia area.

It wasn't really possible to completely replace a population before like the 1800s unless it was the native AmeriKKKans getting sick.

Austronesian expansion might one example.

Also, Injuns in North America (above Mexico) were low in number even before the Cauc Pox so they were already likely to be absorbed by an expansive society even before half of them dropped dead.

>at least 70% Levantine ancestry

https://www.brown.edu/conference/revisiting-the-question-of-jewish-origins/abstracts

Our most recent findings suggest that the Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry is roughly ≈40% Middle Eastern, ≈40% Southern European (or a closely related ancestry), and ≈20% Eastern European. Mixing with Southern Europeans occurred around ≈30-50 generations ago, and was followed by a dramatic decrease in population size around ≈25-30 generations ago, probably representing the early Jewish settlement in Poland. This founder event was followed by an extremely rapid expansion and mixing with (likely) Eastern Europeans.
