I didn't see Sicilian as an option so I voted Italian. I change to Sicilian.

I switched it.

The funny thing is, I realized there is something of a resemblance between my great grandmother:

and Ruth Bader Ginsburg.. not the eyes so much, but the nose, facial shape etc.

Isn't it to be expected?

Yes, but at the same time, it makes me wonder.. did the "Ashkenazi" look develop in Israel itself before the diaspora, or did it develop in Europe due to admixture with other things? I would be inclined to think the latter, but then someone like Leon Panetta looks Jewish to me, but I doubt his look has any Germanic influence to it.

I agree, Admixture with Germanics mostly...

Do you think Eichmann looks Jewish?
