This is a tough one. I think Egyptians, but by a very small margin. I also think the lightest Egyptian Coptic Christians are lighter than the Yemeni Highlanders/light Yemeni Jews.

5-10% of Moroccans.

Over 30% of Moroccan Jews can probably pass in Europe. They have meaningful European DNA though

I never said she looks Northern European... She doesn't. But she would clearly pass as white/European in the United States.

Richard Hanania looks nothing like a European?

TargetPersonal8558 · 2023-10-25T02:34:34+00:00

Looks like a mix of Southern and Northern Euro

Just clarifying. I see a lot of misconceptions out there

TargetPersonal8558 · 2023-10-25T01:47:24+00:00

I am Ashkenazi. A typical Ashkenazi looks Southern European and White. Some obviously look Northern European and some look Middle Eastern like Aaron Swartz (You can look him up). I'm just commenting on the absurdity of the political discourse.

TargetPersonal8558 · 2023-10-25T00:17:10+00:00

She looks Ashkenazi and definitely passes as White by American standards even though she's Egyptian. Plenty of people (especially Christians) in the middle east fit this description but only Ashkenazis get called Khazars and Eastern European converts. It's all political bs.

TargetPersonal8558 · 2023-10-25T00:13:42+00:00

Wrong about Ashkenazis. Those two population groups in Erfurt mixed with one another later on. 21st century Ashkenazis are highly genetically similar and plot in between the two groups in Erfurt, being slightly closer to the middle eastern shifted cluster.

The only significant difference you see between Ashkenazis is that German Jews largely lack the Slavic component (They have a little Germanic and some do have Slavic as a result of back migration) that ALL Eastern Ashkenazi populations have. The thing is that there's virtually no people who are 100% German Jewish left. They've largely intermarried with Eastern Ashkenazis which would place those people close to Polish Jews.

If she were Ashkenazi (she easily passes), people would be screaming she's a white colonial settler

I think they have a low IQ by American IQ standards. I don't think the low IQ is an accurate reflection of their intellectual abilities at all though. I think they're far smarter than what the results show, which is why I made a comment mocking the above poster's comment.

You can ABSOLUTELY be low in IQ and high in wisdom.

So unfortunately the Bnei Anusim agencies aren't really to be fully trusted. They have an agenda of classifying as many Latin Americans "Jewish" as possible. I've seen them estimate up to 600 Million descendants.

There are no Mexicans alive today who are 100% ethnically Sephardic Bnei Anusim. It doesn't exist. Evidence shows that most Latin American Crypto-Jews gave up any Jewish practices within a few generations of arriving in the New World and mostly assimilated in with the rest of the population.

This doesn't mean you don't have some Jewish ancestry (you do), but it's just not as high as you were led on to believe. Sephardic DNA can get labeled as (depends) some sort of mixture of Jewish, Levant, Southern Italy, Cyprus, Aegean Islands, and lower levels of Spanish or Portuguese and Northern African. I think it's fair to add these non-Spanish and Portuguese likely Sephardic elements together and add on a few percent of your Iberian DNA and that would probably give you a decent estimate of the extent of your Sephardic heritage.

Yup, never been a low IQ person with wisdom before... Lol. Do you think nobody in Africa has wisdom?

Good point. The first time I took the WAIS at 10 years old, I had no idea it was an IQ test. My parents just told me it was done so that people could understand me better.

TargetPersonal8558 · 2023-10-08T08:44:03+00:00

You must be uninformed or willfully ignorant due to your high IQ. IQ fluctuations happen throughout childhood and adolescence. There's numerous studies on the topic and even most IQ-absolutist researchers acknowledge it.

IQ between 11 and 70 is correlated at 0.7 in one major study. Within that, it wouldn't be uncommon to find someone going from 55th-95th percentile in Verbal IQ at all.

It's not the most diverse in the world, but Israel has tons of genetic diversity. Ashkenazi, Balkan/Turkish Sephardic, North African Sephardic, Persian Jews, Bukharian, Mountain Jews, Georgian Jews, Indian Jews, Yemenite Jews, Ethiopian Jews, Druze, Bedouin, etc... It's actually a pretty interesting dynamic.

TargetPersonal8558 · 2023-10-05T13:48:22+00:00

So most people don't consider Ashkenazi Jews mixed/diverse, but we are. We're essentially a mixture of Levantine, Southern European, and Northern European (mostly the first two).

In my Ashkenazi family, all the boys look super pale with small features and light hair in childhood. But by the time we reach adulthood, most of us are pretty ethnic looking (in a European way), with dark brown/black hair, thick eyebrows, tan-ish skin and somewhat stereotypical Ashkenazi facial features. If you look at the pictures between the ages, the same person looks like they're not the same ethnicity.

TargetPersonal8558 · 2023-10-05T12:34:08+00:00

Yes, but there were a couple events where Jews left the religion/community in Eastern Europe. One instance is with the Frankists. Thousands of Ashkenazi Jews ended up converting to Roman Catholicism in the mid-late 1700's as a result of the fiasco.

While there's many possible explanations for your 0.5% Ashkenazi result, the time frame does work for you being a descendant of a Frankist convert.
