I just found this interesting. Regardless, Zionism has always been about control of the people and amassing power, just like religion. #ZionismIsTerrorism #DivestFromIsrael

European Jews (known as Ashkenazi Jews) share deep genetic roots in the Middle East and ancient Israel, even though "Semitic" properly describes a family of languages rather than a biological race. What "Semitic" Means • Language family: The word Semitic refers to people who speak Semitic languages, such as Hebrew, Arabic, and Amharic. • No biological race: Scientists and historians state that a unified "Semitic race" does not exist. The Ancestry of European Jews • Middle Eastern roots: Modern genetic studies prove that Ashkenazi Jews carry substantial ancient Israelite and Levantine DNA. • European mixing: Over centuries in Europe, their communities also blended some European ancestry into their lineage, as detailed in research from Harvard Medical School. • Debunking myths: Scientific evidence completely disproves false claims that European Jews have zero Middle Eastern heritage or descend entirely from unrelated groups like the Khazars. Read more details from the Anti-Defamation League. Understanding Antisemitism • Creation of the word: The term "antisemitism" was coined in late 19th-century Germany as a political and pseudo-scientific label specifically meant to describe hatred of Jews, according to the American Jewish Committee. • Targeting modern Jews: Discrimination or hostility toward Jewish people is antisemitism, regardless of where their families lived or what they look like.
