You really like that snarky coffee emoticon.
I'm awake because I have a baby who is teething. I went upstairs, brushed my teeth, and then he decided it was playtime.

I would like to point out that Europe is somewhat subjective, and it was only recently British began to think of themselves as European.
It should makes sense that I put a lot of emphasis on the European identity in order to qualify as truly European. Its like saying that I need to depend on 2 1s or a 2 and a 0 to make a 2 when adding in mathematics. It would be nonsensical, contradictory, and downright moronic to say otherwise.
Ashkernazi and Sephardic Jews are grouped closer to Mediterranean Europeans, because they have European ancestry. If we are speaking about all variants of Jews then you would be certainly wrong with your assertion that they group with Mediterranean Europeans.
Jews are not merely limited just to the Ashkernazis and Sephardic peoples, and those Ashkernazis and Sephardics are on average a majority of Jewish bloodlines. Therefore they can not be considered Indo-European, and if so only in part. The argument ends here, because if it goes any further there will be a crass defiance of pure logic.
Cheers, Geist. I think my more lax stance on who is/isn't white/European stems from the fact that my parents aren't of the same nationality, and that I was not born in either of their native countries.
I see secular Ashkenazi Jews who are indistinguishable from Gentiles as 'ok' for the cause because they are, as I said, indistinguishable. My personal view is that if they are not accepted, the cause might be losing valuable assets. A blonde haired blue eyed secular Ashkenazi can secure blonde hair and blue eyes just as well as a blonde haired blue eyed gentile.
do yo guys consider Gypsies as European? I bet no. But I think it has a history behind.
I could get in mind some peoples in Europe who do not fall some criteras like Magyars (Hungarians) who speak a language of foreign origin but history and geno-phenotype (it's obvious Hungarians are European genetically) of Hungary has made it typically Europe in a large Indo-European-speaking lake.
