Is West Asian a European component?

Absolutely no.

If WA its european because its "caucasoid" so NA is european too.

Aren't modern day Europeans basically near eastern Finnic hybrids???

I believe Europeans all plot in between those two population??

No...Uralic speakers did not arrive into Europe until the Iron Age...maybe some initial smaller movements during the LBA. the narrative that Finno-Ugric represents an ancient-most linguistic group in Europe is a genetic old wives’ tale.

Depends if you see Yamnaya as indigenous

Yamnaya I0443 / 3300-2700 BC
North_Atlantic 25.99 Pct
Baltic 38.52 Pct
West_Med -
West_Asian 28.05 Pct
East_Med -
Red_Sea -
South_Asian 3.43 Pct
East_Asian -
Siberian -
Amerindian 4.01 Pct
Oceanian -
Northeast_African -
Sub-Saharan -

It's like some models with formed IEs in G25, they just forget to tell you there s plenty of "farmer" type of dna embedded in it, in the form of CHG/Iran_N (which is even more basal than actual farmers). Here it manifests in West Asian mostly, because that's a more modern component.

I'd say it isn't.

West Asian/east med/west med are all European components

So you must include East Asian and North African (NA is caucasoid) as "European".

Everything that Europeans obtain for Europeans during the formation of Europe and in important historical events and that Europeans have integrated for Europeans is so, if in other continents they do not agree we do not care, Europe is decided by Europeans, whether there are differences of opinion among Europeans is not relevant either, since no European territory has the exclusivity of Europe as a continent.

West Asian is what gives Europeans a sallow complexion, big round eyes and a lot of body hair.

It's literally worse than the bubbonic plague.

North Africans have large amounts of west and east med. their non Caucasoid component is ssa. North Africans aren’t a component on their own but comprised of multiple components. Secondly tf do u mean East Asian

Your very mistaken, people with the highest west Asian in the world where it peaks like baloch, South Caucasus Georgia iran etc mostly have small eyes not big bulging eyes

The large almond type eyes (with/without bags underneath) is a Mediterranean trait.

They also constitute their own component though through a long lasting isolation. Taforalt people were extremely distinct for instance.

How can they constitute their own component when they’re comprised of three very clear components

You can make up a new component with anything, especially based on moderns. In the case Taforalt, it's mostly West Eurasian + 1/3 SSA. You can call that "Taforalt" because it was particularly found there at a certain time. People today who have that specific combination in the right proportions will score it too. Many others components are like that with Oceanian or East Asian. They just tend to fool people into thinking they are not made of what they are actually made of, until you look at them with the prism of more ancient and distinct populations. Chiefly the big 4, Caucasoid, SSA, Oceanian, East Asian (eventually Amerindian).

As you just said you can make a component out of anything then it’s not accurate is it because if someone scores North African they’re Essentially scoring it bc they have east and west med or ssa. It’s not accurate to make components out of modern ethnicities

Non European, the ethbicities which have significant amount of it r boarder european. Whg/ehg genetics are the base

According to some analysis I did on ancient samples provided by David Reich on his website, it seems that the so called "Caucasus Hunter-Gatherers" and the prehistoric Iranians cluster together in a component that I call West Asian.

That component is not present in an homogenous form in Europe, but perhaps some do have. So my answer is a maybe.
