Palestinians and Jews are virtually indistinguishable from DNA test

Palestinians and Jews are virtually indistinguishable. They (each side) are essentially fighting and killing themselves. They are the same peoples. What a ridicules scenario we have playing out over there.

The shared genetic heritage of Jews and Palestinians... What they revealed was that Arabs and Jews are essentially a single population, and that Palestinians are slap bang in the middle of the different Jewish populations (as shown in this figure).

So basically Iran is supporting the Palestinians which means they are supporting Jews. This war is insanity from every angle.

It is always more a difference of mind than any other source.

this is really funny. i told people this was a blood feud. its nice to be proved correct

a reply to: Xeven

Some of the oldest (by history) Jews live happily in Iran.. Why would it be a surprise that Iran are supporting Palestinians who could be ancient Jews? I think it comes down to which line they descended from than their similar genetic make-up. If everyone in that part of the world came from Abraham or even Noah I guess, then of course they are going to have similar genetics. The question is which part of those lineages did they originate from. And that could be another reason why they continue to fight also. Maybe it's a family tiff.

Most human beaings are almost indistinguishable in a DNA test. We are 99% indistinguishable from Chimps and share 60% of our DNA with fruit flies. Every creature on this planet is related, if you really wanna get deep and abstract about it.

Yeah but there are ideologies they have that exclude other ethnic groups such as a non-Jew sojourner converting to Judaism and many Muslims have similar prejudices. Something like this could bring about more public pressure from the average Jew and Muslim to stop the insanity.

It's important to remember that Jews and Muslims have been living side-by-side in peace for centuries. This is a war of extremists, fought by extremists. The average Jew and Muslim aren't what we see in the news.

well, they are not first group of people "who are virtually indistinguishable from DNA test" but through history and many factors formed into completely different nations.

NATIONS.

same genes means nothing in this and many other cases.

like somebody already mentioned - we are all relate, brothers - but that doesn't stop us from killing each other...

Yup. Irish, catholic IRA Vs. the English, protestant UK; the American Union Vs. the Confederate States of America. Same people, almost indistinguishable: brothers even. Different ideologies, lots of guns. Bad mix.

Ain't all humans got identical DNA?

Just because you believe in a different got doesn't change that fact

Maybe then need to do brain scans and see if some parts are funtioning differently

Good comparisons except that all were/are Christian.

Big difference in Islam / Judaism.

What does this prove? That we are willing to kill each other because my fictional supreme being is better than your fictional supreme being?

Whilst religion is obviously a big determining factor to the situation in the Middle East, it's also about encroaching on land and stealing said land despite promises being made in the past. It's a territorial issue and we are programmed to protect our territory, just like most animals in nature.

Tell that to the poor Palestinians that are dead or maimed at the hand of Israel.

This is about land and religious intolerance towards an indigenous population, DNA or the similarities of such mean less than nothing to these people!

a reply to: xuenchen

OK. India vs. Pakistan

Sri Lankan vs. Tamils

German Nazis vs. German Jews

I think it doesnt really matter what the religion is. Religion is cultural, and sometimes as is the case in Judaism, Matriarchy inherited. People will use whatever difference they see fit to off each other. Having your magical nanny tell you its OK to do just makes it that much easier in the "my dad can beat up your dad" sense

Are you being sarcastic?

I think this article from Lou Baldin/Sleeper pretty much sums up earth, ie. religion used by PTB as arena's and fighting, to carve territories and control masses.

The article titled How did this happen? Iraq, Syria, Gaza and Libya all in flames
www.ufolou.com... which is CNN, but has Lou's commentary.

Its not DNA for the most part, some differences that are brought up, controversial and not politically correct, that could be bred out or changed via words, meditation and positive abundant type environments IMO. ie reactive ones with less empathy, that to me were more adaptive long term to warm climates and environment. But DNA is a computer type language it seems and is affected by our diet, lifestyle, happiness, and positivity and even words according to some studies.

DNA is not the most important thing, its the boxes minds are put in that really make all the problems on earth. And the responsibility of the driver of the bodysuit, the consciousness. Do we just go with the flow of life, or question things and feel shock over the violence or reactiveness stupidity around us and start to swim upstream, try to overcome what is causing this in ourselves and nudge others to?

Genocide and sarcasm seldom go hand in hand, im being realistic. Both factions couldn't care less about DNA while there is killing to had.

As Xeven said "This war is insanity from every angle.".

But different peoples from across the world can be identified from their haplotypes.

I've always believed that this conflict has more to do with politics than race or religion.

Proving the point I was making in the later post @ on Jul, 26 2014 @ 02:36 PM

Religion is cultural, and sometimes as is the case in Judaism, Matriarchy inherited. People will use whatever difference they see fit to off each other

we share 99% of our genetic code, not 100%. Haplotypes make up this small percent of differences which make us all mostly different

glad we can agree

you do realize that they had a common ancestor right? They are incorrectly described as decendants of Shem; hence (semites or semetic.) that does not make them the same people though. actually many people view the arabs as being decendants of Abraham through Hagar a handmaiden of Sara. either way they descended from Abraham.

the difference is God's plan for Abraham was to have children with his actual wife. God told Abraham after the deed had been done that Ishmael would be as a wild ass all of his days and that apparently applies to his descendants too.

Genesis 16:12

This son of yours will be a wild man, as untamed as a wild donkey! He will raise his fist against everyone, and everyone will be against him. Yes, he will live in open hostility against all his relatives."[ex]
