As I didn't assert the connection, but instead prefaced it with an "I always thought..." which is much less strong, I made an assumption that I had sneaked under the ET citation requirement for dubious and near-bogus statements.

I have always presumed the wild surmise that if you saw some ethnic group who, when they got suntans, ended up looking like another ethnic group who now inhabited the area the first lot left 2000 years ago, there might be a familial connection somewhere along the line.

Re: Europe (none / 0)

Actually, if you read the article gk links to, the research seems to indicate a common Middle-Eastern ancestry for Jewish groups and Middle-Eastern non-Jewish groups. Which of course doesn't say anything about cultural events such as possible conversions to other religions of Jews possibly remaining in Palestine.
