Jews from different backgrounds

[Question4U]

In this thread I want to show examples for Israeli Jews who are themselves or their ancestors came from only one country abroad.
today most of the Israelis have a mixed background but still I was able to find a few examples, all of them are famous Israelis.

can you explain why biased? I try to avoid converts so I would like to know who is convert and what make you sure they are half Jewish?

You didn't bother to google them?

This is your first one:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anastassia_Michaeli


Michaeli was born Anastassia Mikhalevsky in Leningrad in the Soviet Union (now Saint Petersburg in Russia) to a Christian ethnic Russian family.[1][2]

third one:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anna_Zak


Her father is of Jewish descent, whereas her mother is not.[17]

Diana Golbi's bio isn't available, but her surname suggests a very high likelihood of Russian ancestry. Do you have bios for the rest? I'm skeptical about most of them. The soviet aliyah was very mixed. Intermarriage rate in the USSR was at 50%. You can't post these people without seeing that they have a bio denoting full Jewish ancestry.

Also, there is no such thing as "Russian Jews" - they're just a collection of Jews who moved there post 1920.

of course I google them, but I guess I missed it this time, and yes its very hard to know who is full Jewish when it comes to The soviet Aliyah.

here are the others information that I've found

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diana_Golbi
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakov_Toumarkin
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ania_Bukstein

Those pages only reveal that they live in Israel - nothing else, with the exception of Bukstein. Bukstein I don't question as fully Jewish. Same with Tidhar - she isn't from the recent Soviet Aliyah. The only thing suspect about Tourmarkin is sometimes he's listed with the surname Zhuravlev. Golbi is almost surely not fully Jewish. Dubinchik - while her surname suggests her patrilinial side is Jewish, find an actual bio. So far, only Bukstein and Tidhar can be trusted from your list.

[Targum]

The OP cherry-picked, for unknown reasons, his Ashkenazi exemplars, to include all Euro-looking blondes, lol. I and anyone I know, with rare exceptions, don't look like what was posted. 107400These people are a clear minority in any AJ population without modern Euro admix. Gal Gadot's looks are far more typical for Ashkenazi Jews with two Jewish parents.

[Question4U]

I feel like I need to explain the choices that I've made in this theard, and from seeing some coments I can understand why some of you might be triggered.

First, yes there are many ashkenazim that have a levantine look and I can post here plenty of them but most of them are ashkenazim that their ancestors are from more then just one country so they dont fit the purpose of this theard. And I dont know, I make an assumption here but maybe when you are mixed ashkenazi from several countries it makes your levantine features more obvioues?

Second, while with Sephardim and Mizrahim you don't even need to ask where their ancestors came from, with ashkenazim its much more difficult because if you will ask them what is their background they will just say they are ashkenazi and won't talk about the country or countries their ancestors came from because they feel its irelevant and they dont feel connected to this countries and their traditions in any way.

Third, we are talking about famous people so I guess there might be some beauty standards so its for sure not a representative sample but I would love that if you have better examples you will share it here. I will try to find more diversed examples for the ashkenazim in the next backgrounds I will post.

There are no Jews surnamed Shatilov. He's also clearly not Bukharian. What makes you think De Groot is fully Jewish? There is no such thing as Kyrgyzstani Jews. A few migrated there a couple decades ago. It's a meaningless category. The French Jew you have could easily be North African. Most of the older Jewish population was annihilated. Belgian Jews are also likely recent. You guys can safely disregard this thread. He's just finding Israelis on wiki, with no care for the details (except to give a biased view of Ashkenazim). You all do this on your own on a daily basis.

There are no Jews surnamed Shatilov. He's also clearly not Bukharian. What makes you think De Groot is fully Jewish? There is no such thing as Kyrgyzstani Jews.

I'm curious to know what you consider typically ashkenazi jew. Can you post some examples ?

They're not similar to the Ashkenazim posted here. Almost all of them could either be Levantine or peripheral European. There is an east med continuum and it shows up phenotypically as well.

Here is a representative spectrum of "Russian Jews" (not a real category):

Technically the Pale of Settlement included some small areas presently within Russian borders, for example, Chabad-Lubavitch gets its name from Lyubavichi which is located in Russia today, and is a couple of miles from Belarus. Probably less than 1% of American Jews who say their ancestors were from Russia do not actually have any family that immigrated from within present Russian borders.

I stuck to OP's rules and chose Ashkenazim born in the Russian Federation. But you're absolutely right, almost no one who claims Jewish ancestry from Russia ever had an ancestor within the present country. The same applies to those I chose. They're born in Russia, but their grandparents, great-grandparents etc almost surely weren't.

What % were Sephardim? How many of you descend solely or even mostly from that group? I bet none.

There are a few older people who do descend mostly, including some second cousins and so on, akshually. Perhaps a couple of purebloods but I highly doubt it.

Take Deri, Haviv, Buskila, and Dayan from your Moroccan Jewish list and that's how Ashkenazim more commonly look like.

If you want typical Ashke take crowd pics of hassid and have fun counting blond blue eyes guys 🤣 it will not be long I assure you that. Why people are so biased about Ashke and why they care so much, I can post you many mizrahim and séfaradim and syrians and Lebanese blond blue eyes ( or course they are not the majority like for the Ashke) and I can post very dark Ashke too 😉 in my family the Ashke are way more southerners lmiddle easterner than the mizrahim of my family, way way more 😘
