I am torn between thinking modern European Jews are southern Italian converts, and that it is a coincidence they cluster together. Because Sicilianu101 for instance got a significant couple of shared segments with Druze, and they are a group often said to be close to Jews too. Maybe both groups just have enough Levantine ancestry and a similar Mediterranean component?
If what AngloJew says is true, that modern Jews are the best representation of ancient Israelites.. since these Jews cluster with Sicilians and Greeks then it means the Jews of the Bible would have been almost genetically identical to today's Sicilians and Greeks.
