"35%-55% Ashkenazis are of European Descent"

[Raikaswinþs]

How is the child European? Do you mean a European citizen?

Every non Basque is just a European Citizen

Aren't Afrikaaners /Boers considered as "White Africans" or even just "South African" ? So I don't see any opposition in that case as well.

Jews have been within the borders of Europe since the days of Pagan Rome. What more do they have to do in order to be considered European?

Stop identifying themselves with, and BEING identified with, this;


For a Jew to become European, they have to cease being a Jew. Only then can their progeny from a mixed marriage have some chance at this. Even then, the Jewish culture has to slip out of living memory.

Mercury, your comments apply to the Gypsies too.


Without intermarrying with us, and giving up their distinctive culture, Jews remain foreign. Our respective ancestors have lived VASTLY different histories. Denying the importance of this is disrespectful of BOTH of them.

'Jewish culture' does not exist, because there are people from all over the world who practice the Jewish faith. The way I was brought up would not look anything like the way a Jew from Kai Feng grew up. There are certain Jewish customs that are consistent, but he same can be said for a Catholic Brit and a Catholic Mexican.

Do Jews in Singapore worship a different God to the Jews living in West Philadelphia?

I have noticed that people tend to think that ali Jews are not white ( I admit that sometimes I can be eurocentric and I refuse to think that people I have learned about on college are not white though to some they are partially white ).
But when it comes close to considering them white people start to say how they have different culture, different way of life....
I have met over facebook people of different euro nationalities who became muslims and they live muslim way of life. Then according to some they are white but can not be considering European?

Come back in another life as a European.

No one questions whether Englishmen are European. No one questions whether the French are European. No one questions whether the Germans are European, and so on..., but Everyone questions whether Jews are Europeans. Why? Because they aren't European. However much it may be argued, and however concise and critical the points may be, the resounding end result is the same: Jews aren't European.

I think we all know the squabbling that goes on about the English being European, both now from Englishmen themselves and non-English, and particularly in the past. The ones nowadays who unequivocally say they're Europeans are usually those who are trying to distance themselves from the Anglosphere, their more natural affinity, particularly the US.

I agree Jews are not Europeans. The Ashkenazim though are close enough to be easily assimilated though intermarriage, in which case they'll become Europeans over time and cease to be Jews. This is how Nietzsche recommended the Jewish Question be solved. Unfortunately, Germany ultimately opted for another 'solution', which has proven catastrophic to our civilization.

Catholic Brits and Catholic Mexicans share common ancestors from when? Several centuries to a couple of millennia for the Iberian side, and several TENS of millennia for the Indio side. :yawn:

Some US WASP idiot who goes to Israel on holiday and 'converts' after some 'spiritual experience' is not a Jew. They're just an idiot.

Jews in England are foreign to the English. Jews in Kaifeng are foreign to the Chinks. End of story. There are many Jewish cultures, but they all go back to the same root. That diaspora peoples diverge with time and geography is no big news. Still foreigners, though. Try again, kiddo.

Politically and culturally, yes, but with the exception of a few fringe fruit bats, the English wouldn't argue themselves not being European in a 'racial sense'.
