i’m part ashkenazi, and i submitted my dna to gedmatch, which proved i have levantine ancestry. i see ashkenazim and all ethnic jews as indigenous to the land of israel.

Yes, they are. And no, they're not native to Israel.

They're a mix between middle eastern and European, so no they're not white, nor are they mena, but somewhere in-between.

The ones I met looked white.

Yes I view them as such for obvious reasons : they look european more than anything else, plot close to south europeans and are culturally european.

i consider them white

**Rædwald** · 08-07-2021, 11:37 PM

No.

**Asten** · 08-07-2021, 11:40 PM

Yes, i have encountered some in Switzerland and they were white. Two of them were blonde.

No,

Jews consider themselves 'white' when it is convenient for them and non-white when it is convenient or advantageous for them.

I see them as White. They trace their roots to the Holy Land, and many or most also have European forebears, although they might deny or downplay it. I think that their ancestors looked like Iraqis since Abraham came from Ur. Of course, it could be that the Anglo-Saxons (sons of Isaac) are the "true Jews". ;-)
