I was born and bred in Africa. I have lived and worked in several countries and visited many more.

There are two types of Jews - Ashkenazi Jews and Sephardic Jews that come from Europe. The Ashkenazi Jews originate from Turkey (about 300 AD) and the Sephardic Jews from Spain/Portugal. There is also a people in Israel called the Samaritans. They have their own version of Torah, and they have been there throughout the past 2000 years. There are also Ethiopian Jews.

You cannot change history and science just because you want to believe something. The DnA shows what the history is. Do you want to deny the science? It isn't propaganda.

The first president of Israel, Ben Gurion, stated that there would never be peace in Israel because Israel had taken the land from Palestine (which is true).

Gamel Abdel Nasser has Caucasian features. His ethnicity is middle-eastern. I have provided a link to his details. There was a lot of movement from Europe and Asia into North Africa, so the races were pretty mixed. Unless you have a photograph of someone, or unless you have their exact DNA profile, you cannot make the claims you are making.

Palestine is not part of Africa. It is in the Middle East. Look at a map. It is the land between Africa and Asia.

I don't care what race the non-existent Jesus was. What I care about is academic scholarship. My genetic profile (23&Me) puts me as an Ashkenazi Jew with my forbears origin in Turkey.

It is irrelevant that I have a white skin. I grew up in Africa. I lived with Africans. I am familiar with the culture and the history.

Sub-Saharan Africans have particular features, very dark, almost black skins, and have wooly hair. People living in Egypt and the Middle East do not.

I'm going to leave this debate now. I understand that it is as important for you to believe that Jesus was black as it is for me to have accurate scholarship.

Neither of us will concede.

Have a good life.
