most of us Israelis are from Arab countries but we aint arabs!

@ariafanoos

It's been explained through DNA tests...European jews simply mixed a little, so they SOMEtimes appear lighter, but they are still more closely related to other middle eastern and north african people, especially middle eastern jews. :) Anyway, there is a lot of variety in color among most middle eastern peoples.

I like how she said "respect" everyone something that is hard to find sometimes in eretz yisreal

[YoniVeYoshi]

Why is everyone so obsessed with race?! You get dark and light Arabs all the time. We don't make a big deal about it. Turkish people of modern day Turkey have their language in common - that's about it. What is your obsession with Jews and our race. It is so offensive and disgusting.

@AncestorAvenger Everything is possible, I guess.

@cpeigney94

I think she descends from farmers in north africa who came originally from europe, so I think she actually is ashkenazim

@BamenYaros

My ancestors came from Morocco to Portugal and from Portugal to Suriname and Im very proud to be a hebrew. Next year I will visit Israel and one day I will live there!

[cpeigney94]

@ariafanoos Just deal with it. They don't consider themselves Arabs, never have and never will. They do recognize and are proud of their history in Arab land, but that's as far as it goes. By the way, this girl could eeeaaaaasily go by as Ashkenazim. I'm Ashkenazim and I'm darker than her.

[cpeigney94]

@ariafanoos The thing is they don't see themselves as Arabs, they're Mizrahi Jews. Judaism is not only a religion but a nationality.
