Do you find it odd for these Bedouins to be Christians?

Arabid, Armenoid, Iranid, Syrid

[Gaditanian]

Why shocking?, Christians were there centuries of years before Islam, and Islam doesn't force you to convert if you pay the Jizya

I found out about these guys around a year ago, I think Stony brought it to my attention. Did kind of surprise me, but also at the same time the Middle East has always been a diverse place so its not that odd.

Well, it shouldn't be surprising to people since there had been Arabs who were Christians in the past that worked for the Byzantine empire like the Salahids, Ghassinids, Tayyids(Shammari Arab bedouins descend from) and so on.

Arabids, Aegyptids. Can pass from Syria to Israel(Mizrahi). Some can pass in the Greek islands, especially the men in the first pic.
