@M_B_Levin@_iamblakeley@orenbarsky Your timeline relies on clipping the video right when people fight back. In 1948, Arab states entered after Zionist militias had already ethnically cleansed 300k Palestinians. You aren’t tracking history you’re tracking their resistance.
@Radtadpole@TedRall Arabic-speaking and Jewish populations" ARE the modern populations, you genius. Who do you think speaks Arabic today? Ancient ghosts? The study is literally comparing present-day groups to Bronze Age Canaanites, and your own screenshot proves both modern groups share that same
@Radtadpole@TedRall The brainrot it takes to highlight a sentence that says "both Arabic-speaking and Jewish populations" and think you won. 😭 I never denied Jewish ties. You denied Palestinian ones, and your own screenshot just validated them. Absolute clown.
@Radtadpole@TedRall You are completely confusing linguistic Arabization with demographic replacement. When the Arab expansion happened, they didn't replace the population; the local Levantines adopted the language. Peer-reviewed genetic data (including Cell 2020 studies on Bronze Age Canaanite DNA)-
@Radtadpole@TedRall consistently proves that modern Palestinians share the exact same deep Levantine/Canaanite ancestry as Jewish populations. They are the native population that stayed on the land and acclimated culturally over centuries. You’re arguing against modern genetics.
