Ages ago I posted her in my "Female members of the Knesset" thread. To me she has an interesting look, in the sense that I could see her to some extent passing in both Southern Europe and conversely South Asia.

Oddly enough, Iberia is a good fit. Better than Italy and Greece.

I agree but she also looks quite versatile at the same time and could pass for a whole range of ethnicities.

How come? And what about all the other options I listed?

She barely fits in any of the choices.

So do you think that she looks distinctly Jewish and cannot really pass as anything else? (Except Iberian, apparently).

Yes. Honestly, she doesn't even look Sicilian.

Gosh...really hard to evaluate. So she seems to be fully Mizrahi Jewish (seems 100% Iraqi Jewish from what I could tell), so that is perhaps an important and/or useful thing to note. In terms of fit, I do not see her passing as European anywhere (including Spain). I can't fully rank, but will try to place in general bins/categories:

Passes easily: Iraq, Iran, Syria (pretty atypical though)

Passes as atypical (strangely): Pakistan, NW India (maybe?)

Does not pass anywhere else IMO...Perhaps as highly atypical Lebanese or Jordanian

She would not stand out too much in Spain (as she would not stand out much in the rest of southern Europe either), but she doesn't look particularly Iberian. Looks more Jewish than anything else.

Yup...Southern Europe.

NO, better as Jewish. She just would not stand out too much in southern Europe, but would only pass very superficially, and as very atypical.

Her Jewish vibe is strong.

Best: Levant and Iberia.
Worse: Balkans.

I am glad others get the Iberian vibe too and it is not just me.

Funny to put Levant and Iberia in the same phrase, lol

Curry subhuman. Cannot fit in Europe, not even as Spanish.

She doesn't look Iberian to me. Would fit much better in Israel, Lebanon or Syria.
In Europe I think she only fits in Greece and Cyprus (this is one of the rare types I could see as Greek but not as Sicilian).
