I admit it sounds silly, but if you accept the definition of ARAB as "culture", then not only enjoying randomly, but being a consumer of Arab culture, food, music, patriarchal habits, etc - raises the question . (and the conclusion I think is, A. Language is a very dominant criterion here; B.Much of it depends whether the competing ethnicity (Jewishness) excludes its members from belonging to any other Ethnic/Cultural definition)
@@avinaughty he's definitely asking on the principle of ethnicity not culture That's why the title is "Israeli jews that look arab" And that was a really dumb question either way.
@JimboParadox Not true. There are plenty of brown skin Jews and even Black Jews. You can not identify Jews by skin color. It would be the same as referring to all American's as white. Genetically speaking, Arabs and Jews are brothers. Also, Arabs come in many shades also. I have met Arabs with white skin, brown skin, and black skin. I have met both Jews and Arabs with equally large noses and equally small noses. You need to get out of the basement and become more cultured.
I like Arab music, I'm particularly fond of the sound of the oud. But I'm Ashkenazi. One can enjoy the music and other aspects of another culture not their own.
its not that at all lol they have arab parents and grandparents thats it the jews that came into north africa persia iraq and ect merrge and married people they just dont wanna admit it
Only the mizrahim arab jews are genetically middle eastern, not the askhenazi European jews. Mizrahim jews are semitic like the akkadians, assyrians, ethiopians, phoenicians(lebanese and Syrians), and Arabs.
Yusuf Lebanese and Syrian are Arabs and the Syrian more Arabs and they proud of that I haven't seen a 1 Syrian said that they are Phoenician of course there is an Syriac Syrians but like 90% are proud Arabs but there is some Lebanese says that they are Phoenician and they married a lot of western women so they have a European life style and thouts but Not all still most of theme or at least the have of them saying that there Arabs and represent the Arab culture as their culture like all the others Arabs

somthing funny: in Judaism, the First Temple in Jerusalem is not the Second Temple found in the Bible because the 12 Tribes of Israel never existed (this is another story) so for the Zionists Jerusalem is not a holy site (it's importing for them now only for political reasons) plus as you can all see the Zionists using Jews as cannon fodder so its funny how Israel is really our biggest enemy and a total liability for US interests (btw we were allied with Iran) instead, Zionists are fighting so there will never be peace in the Middle East. Classic "divide and conquer" in the Middle East..lol...I guess Zionists are dumb. It's not every day you find someone to be used as cannon fodder so we can control the resources of the Middle East

You think Arabs came from Saudi-Arabien Arabs have been in Iraq Syria Lebanon Jordanien palastine many cities in mediterranen sea long before islam spread
*Genome-Wide Diversity in the Levant Reveals Recent Structuring by Culture* By Prof. Haber et.al. Beirut, Lebanon. "In particular, conversion of the region's populations to Islam appears to have introduced major rearrangements in populations' relations through admixture with culturally similar but geographically remote populations, leading to genetic similarities between remarkably distant populations like Jordanians, Moroccans, and Yemenis. Conversely, other populations, like Christians and Druze, became genetically isolated in the new cultural environment. We reconstructed the genetic structure of the Levantines and found that a *pre-Islamic expansion Levant was more genetically similar to Europeans than to Middle Easterners."*
I was in Prague and went to a Jewish museum there. Many Jewish visitors found it funny that our features were similar, and the staff there thought me Jewish. But to be frank, the Jews are closer to me than the Europeans, do not look different from us Arabs (Semites)
We Arabs and Jews are the only semite people that exist today(except of small Aramaic minority). Its not like Europeans, which have a lot of nations, like Germanic, Slavic, Roman etc. We need to take care of each other then. We belong as well to great scientific tradition, not less than Europeans. Thru Middle Ages Arabic and Jewish philosofy and sience to modern days success in UAE, Israel etc.
of course Arabs descendants of Ishmael, Jews Descedants orf Isaac, and Isaac and Ishmael where both the sons of Abraham. of course you have more relations to each other than to Europeans.
DoNNY But Isaac, his mother and father are from the same house and family. Ismail, his father Ibrahim, and his Egyptian mother, a Coptic Pharaoh, lived in Saudi Arabia, far from his brothers, and married those who dragged them from Yemen, and the descendants of his grandchildren were born there at Mecca in Saudi Arabia.
All the ethnically Jewish people, even the Ashkenazim, are more closely related to Arabs than other ethnicities because we only married other Jewish people for nearly 2,000 years. I’m only half Jewish so I look very Anglo, but my friend who is Egyptian was shocked when she saw my ancestry report and it came back that I was half Middle Eastern from my Jewish side. My Jewish ancestors who lived in Poland did not look European at all.

just to clear this Up ... for Morocco, in our Moroccan constitution " Morocco is not Arab" there's no line that say that Morocco is an arab country, and for languages in the Moroccan constitution our two official languages are : TAMAZIGHT and ARABIC. for the identity it's clearly said in the constitution that Morocco has a mixture of cultures between Amazigh, Arabs, jews, moresque, Sahraoui, mediteranian. But !! the Moroccan constitution doesn't consider MOROCCO as an ARAB COUNTRY
morocco has an arab state with an arab king. that's first second amazigh is spoken by a minority of moroccans. if u go to the major cities like casablanca, rabat, tanger and marrakesh u won't find many amazigh speakers except those who came from rif or chleuh area like agadir and those villages there
It depends, it's true for sefardi and mizrahi from North Africa and Middle East but not for Ashkenazi from Europe. Ashkenazis jews looks like typical eastern europeans.
6:36 that's totally true , even the Arabs of the middle east say the same thing about that , Here in North Africa ( Morocco, Algeria , Tunisia , Libya ) like we're living in the same nation , we share the same dialect ( Arabic mixed with Amazigh language + French + Spanish and Portoguese in morocco ) , same norms and traditions , same faces as well , if i speak my Moroccan dialect in front of a middle eastern person he thinks that i speak like Chinese lol they say why your arabic isn't arabic !!?
maybe because north africans aren't real arabs, but arabized berbers/amazighs, who don't admit it except for some minorities like the kabyles and the rifis
whattolivefor !! And so, is the Levant , We are a mix of a lot of ethnicity but, we are still arabs. North African are Arabs but, they have their own Arabic Culture that is similar in a lot of ways to the levant. Most Arabs back in the day before Islam were Jewish and Christian.

What is an Arab look anyway? According to this approach, many Italians, Spanish and Portuguese are Arab looking. People in the Middle East have all different looks, I would not say that people in Morocco have the exact same facial features of people in Saudi Arabia or that Yemenites look like Syrians, Sudanese or Iraqis. Above all, all these areas are just Arab speaking, Arabic was imposed by the conquering Arabs. Algerians, Egyptians, Syrians or Iraqis are originally not Arabs.
Yes there is ARABIC look , but too bad Arabic countries are mixed now, in Lebanon or syria or Jordan you would see alot of people who are originally European or Armenian or Turkish or they have European mother or grandmother but you will think they are real Lebanese/Jordanian/syrian, also in yemen and the gulf countries there is millions of people originally African or Pakistani or other Asian countries and you will think they are real Arabs and real natives of the gulf just because they wear ARABIC and speak ARABIC and say they are Arabs but they are not they just lived there hundreds years ago because of islam and they forgot their origin and don't even care about it some don't even know exactly where they are from so they just say we are Arabs because they born in Arabic country with Arabic people and culture. European and African in America don't represent natives look same as European in Lebanon or Pakistani and African in yemen and gulf . Semitic people (real middle eastern) Assyrian Arab Aramean jews mandaean , they look the same but some mixed more with European and some mixed more with African/Indian, and that's why you will find all colours and looks in the middle East because they excepted everyone and everyone start to think they are real middle eastern.
In Lebanon for example most of the pageant Queens and famous people actresses or singer are of European origin or Armenian or they are mixed and in Kuwait most if not all the actresses and actors are originally Iranian and Pakistani and some Iraqis and Egyptian, and in oman all actresses are Pakistani , but all of those people say they are Arabs or Lebanese or Kuwaitis or omani they never say their original land because they know nothing about it , so not everyone who say I'm Arab or Lebanese or Kuwait is real native of the lands or he represent the ARABIAN look. Arabs is ethnicity yes they do have their own look , in saudi Arabia you will find Asian looking saudi and African looking saudi and Pakistani looking saudi and Arabian looking saudi but they all say we are Arabs , is it possible for one ethnicity to look African Asian Indian European?? No

how can you call Jews in Arab countries Arabs when they were in those places centuries before the Arab conquest? and bytheway those communities lost 17x more than the Arabs lost in Israel.
Correct at 4:05, being arab is more of a geographical thing from what I understand. You can be of arab descent but still be a jew. You can also be of israeli descent but be a muslim. Whichever one you associate or identify with doesn't mean it's worse or better than the other. Both people are children of God and descendents of Adam which make us all brothers and sisters equally. Peace be with you.
as an asian and non-arab, I think the last person is very well put. Arab culture and Islamic politicization are happening now and before. Some people think "to be come a good Muslim, he/she should looked like Arabs"... so pity. I am Muslim by the way.
They should differentiate between Nationality, Religion and Race. Some of them say that we don't consider our self arab because we are Israeli and jew. This doesn't make any sense, Israeli is a nationality and jew is being a member of a religion but what is your race? Also, it seems that they automatic assume that arabs are muslims which is not true. Arabs can be muslims/christians/jews etc. In my opinion, the questions should've been as follow: Q:Your religion is Judaism..? A: Yes! Q: your nationality is israeli..? A:OMG yes! Q: What is your race? A:....
But it is not only Nationality, Religion and Race. Jews have different genes than the rest of the population. In fact, having a DNA test can tell you how Jewish you are. So it is clearly biological too. Just like DNA tests can tell a Black person exactly where their people originated from in Africa or how much Irish you possess. So it demonstrates one's roots. Quite useful because the various researchers working on digs have found artifacts that date genetic, Jewish presence for thousands of years.. It's a fact that many Arabs don't like of course so they lie and fabricate. Go to Israel and your mind will be changed forever.
They're not arabs fubdamentally jewish ancestors. Only arab culturely(food, music, landuage ect) The reason ashkenazis/indian/korean or jews from any other culture look different, is because jews been exiled for so long, recolution already changed their appearance while they also integrated in those societies.

"Race" is a weird concept. It only makes sense if groups never intermarry. My feeling is that "race" was mainly invented for the USA in order to feel that the different European groups can feel like one nationality ("white") which is different from African-Americans, natives, etc. Today, being a jew can be a religion, but usually it's more of an ethnic-cultural thing. In the day when jews and Palestinians can truly feel their nationality is one (whether you call it Israeli or something else) is the day we will have peace.
Jews who come from Arab countries are not ethnic Arabs. They are Jews, belong to Jewish tribes. So even if the Jewish person is Yemeni or Moroccan, they are not Arabs.
@@aliner1546 They can't have Arab blood as interfaith marriages in the Middle East are relatively rare. The Arab blood they might have is because they share ancestory with Arabs as both are Semitic peoples.
Lol imagine believing this unironically. Arab is a linguistic group, not a race. Yemen was a Jewish Himyarite kingdom at one point and that was from conversion.
But there’s a different between the ethnic and religion right ?!! I still don’t understand why people saying that the jews who came from Arab countries are not arabs?!!!!

Mathew Van Ostin There was no huge arab immigration to North Africa. Dont lie. Just a few thousand arab men migrated to North Africa to spread Islam. And they all married native North african women and some of them even returned to their homeland. You really think a few thousand arab men changes the dna of millions north africans already living in Norht Africa.

As a Jew, I think Jews are, in some aspects, so primitive that our ancient people never developed a true separation between Religion, Race, Culture & State (to a confusing degree). The primitive definition is that: A Jew is of the Jewish religion, of the Jewish race and of the Jewish state of Israel. This causes hardships for Jewish folks living in foreign countries and their voice is rarely heard within the Jewish spearhead of Israel. This causes identity conflicts for people who converted to Judaism and look European, mid-African or Far eastern. This is also always a sore point in political debates. I think part of this primitiveness comes from not having multiple countries of same religion like in Christianity or Islam. These more aggressive religions spread over huge parts of the world and conquered many peoples, cultures, ethnicities and countries. That, I'd guess, was a major engine in the drive to define what's the same and what's different about people of the same religion. Judaism is often thought of and viewed as one small group, one country, one culture and one people when in fact present day Judaism is a host of many groups (Israel, diaspora) many branches of religion, many cultures, ethnicities, etc.. Judaism must update itself and its defintions.
Being Arab is defined as someone whose mother tongue is Arabic. Most (if not all) of the people interviewed are born and raised in Israel meaning their mother tongue is Hebrew, so what’s the purpose of asking if they’re Arab when the answer is obviously no?

If you consider arabs a race, then it's fair of you to think that the Jews who immigrated from arab countries to be arab jews. In my personal opinion, arab is not a race but a culture, and the culture of the jews who came from arab countries is quite different to that of actual arabs. So in that sense, I don't think that "arab" jews are actually arab. If you want to define it as a race, sure they are the same race. Technically I think there's already a word for it; Semitic. To an outsider the cultures of arabs and middle eastern jews might seem very similar, but an uneducated outsider at first glance might even consider the cultures of China and Japan to be similar. But with a little bit of inquiry you can see how those are very different. Same thing with the cultures of middle eastern jews and arabs. Seems similar to outsiders at first glace, but with minor investigation; different indeed.
I really like the last man speach .. seems he's very educated.I am from Saadi Arabia and I really wish that the region will be stable and safe .We do not hate anyone , for us Jews are close to .us more than any other nation in the world If the Israelis and Palestinians agreed on 69 boarders or any things els then this will be the end of this case and we will consider all Israelis friends .
I believe most of the Arabia people are good and want peace, but the "royal" family is the bane of your countries existence, they dominate not only that but others around them , most notably Yemen.
Europeans and North Americans have a similar opinions about Arabs as that one guy at 3:25, who himself is half Arab, and consider them aggressive and untrustworthy. I have friends who worked with Arabs and none of them had good stories to tell.

its not that at all lol they have arab parents and grandparents thats it the jews that came into north africa persia iraq and ect merrge and married people they just dont wanna admit it
Actually arabs n jews outwardly look alike...they are after all middle eastern
Soo true
Only the mizrahim arab jews are genetically middle eastern, not the askhenazi European jews. Mizrahim jews are semitic like the akkadians, assyrians, ethiopians, phoenicians(lebanese and Syrians), and Arabs.
Yusuf Lebanese and Syrian are Arabs and the Syrian more Arabs and they proud of that I haven't seen a 1 Syrian said that they are Phoenician of course there is an Syriac Syrians but like 90% are proud Arabs but there is some Lebanese says that they are Phoenician and they married a lot of western women so they have a European life style and thouts but Not all still most of theme or at least the have of them saying that there Arabs and represent the Arab culture as their culture like all the others Arabs

*Genome-Wide Diversity in the Levant Reveals Recent Structuring by Culture*
By Prof. Haber et.al. Beirut, Lebanon.
"In particular, conversion of the region's populations to Islam appears to have introduced major rearrangements in populations' relations through admixture with culturally similar but geographically remote populations, leading to genetic similarities between remarkably distant populations like Jordanians, Moroccans, and Yemenis. Conversely, other populations, like Christians and Druze, became genetically isolated in the new cultural environment. We reconstructed the genetic structure of the Levantines and found that a *pre-Islamic expansion Levant was more genetically similar to Europeans than to Middle Easterners."*
I was in Prague and went to a Jewish museum there. Many Jewish visitors found it funny that our features were similar, and the staff there thought me Jewish. But to be frank, the Jews are closer to me than the Europeans, do not look different from us Arabs (Semites)
We Arabs and Jews are the only semite people that exist today(except of small Aramaic minority). Its not like Europeans, which have a lot of nations, like Germanic, Slavic, Roman etc. We need to take care of each other then. We belong as well to great scientific tradition, not less than Europeans. Thru Middle Ages Arabic and Jewish philosofy and sience to modern days success in UAE, Israel etc.
of course Arabs descendants of Ishmael, Jews Descedants orf Isaac, and Isaac and Ishmael where both the sons of Abraham. of course you have more relations to each other than to Europeans.
DoNNY But Isaac, his mother and father are from the same house and family. Ismail, his father Ibrahim, and his Egyptian mother, a Coptic Pharaoh, lived in Saudi Arabia, far from his brothers, and married those who dragged them from Yemen, and the descendants of his grandchildren were born there at Mecca in Saudi Arabia.
All the ethnically Jewish people, even the Ashkenazim, are more closely related to Arabs than other ethnicities because we only married other Jewish people for nearly 2,000 years. I’m only half Jewish so I look very Anglo, but my friend who is Egyptian was shocked when she saw my ancestry report and it came back that I was half Middle Eastern from my Jewish side. My Jewish ancestors who lived in Poland did not look European at all.

But !! the Moroccan constitution doesn't consider MOROCCO as an ARAB COUNTRY
morocco has an arab state with an arab king. that's first second amazigh is spoken by a minority of moroccans. if u go to the major cities like casablanca, rabat, tanger and marrakesh u won't find many amazigh speakers except those who came from rif or chleuh area like agadir and those villages there

What is an Arab look anyway? According to this approach, many Italians, Spanish and Portuguese are Arab looking.
People in the Middle East have all different looks, I would not say that people in Morocco have the exact same facial features of people in Saudi Arabia or that Yemenites look like Syrians, Sudanese or Iraqis. Above all, all these areas are just Arab speaking, Arabic was imposed by the conquering Arabs. Algerians, Egyptians, Syrians or Iraqis are originally not Arabs.
Yes there is ARABIC look , but too bad Arabic countries are mixed now, in Lebanon or syria or Jordan you would see alot of people who are originally European or Armenian or Turkish or they have European mother or grandmother but you will think they are real Lebanese/Jordanian/syrian, also in yemen and the gulf countries there is millions of people originally African or Pakistani or other Asian countries and you will think they are real Arabs and real natives of the gulf just because they wear ARABIC and speak ARABIC and say they are Arabs but they are not they just lived there hundreds years ago because of islam and they forgot their origin and don't even care about it some don't even know exactly where they are from so they just say we are Arabs because they born in Arabic country with Arabic people and culture. European and African in America don't represent natives look same as European in Lebanon or Pakistani and African in yemen and gulf . Semitic people (real middle eastern) Assyrian Arab Aramean jews mandaean , they look the same but some mixed more with European and some mixed more with African/Indian, and that's why you will find all colours and looks in the middle East because they excepted everyone and everyone start to think they are real middle eastern.
In Lebanon for example most of the pageant Queens and famous people actresses or singer are of European origin or Armenian or they are mixed and in Kuwait most if not all the actresses and actors are originally Iranian and Pakistani and some Iraqis and Egyptian, and in oman all actresses are Pakistani , but all of those people say they are Arabs or Lebanese or Kuwaitis or omani they never say their original land because they know nothing about it , so not everyone who say I'm Arab or Lebanese or Kuwait is real native of the lands or he represent the ARABIAN look. Arabs is ethnicity yes they do have their own look , in saudi Arabia you will find Asian looking saudi and African looking saudi and Pakistani looking saudi and Arabian looking saudi but they all say we are Arabs , is it possible for one ethnicity to look African Asian Indian European?? No

Correct at 4:05, being arab is more of a geographical thing from what I understand. You can be of arab descent but still be a jew. You can also be of israeli descent but be a muslim. Whichever one you associate or identify with doesn't mean it's worse or better than the other. Both people are children of God and descendents of Adam which make us all brothers and sisters equally. Peace be with you.
as an asian and non-arab, I think the last person is very well put. Arab culture and Islamic politicization are happening now and before. Some people think "to be come a good Muslim, he/she should looked like Arabs"... so pity. I am Muslim by the way.
They should differentiate between Nationality, Religion and Race. Some of them say that we don't consider our self arab because we are Israeli and jew. This doesn't make any sense, Israeli is a nationality and jew is being a member of a religion but what is your race? Also, it seems that they automatic assume that arabs are muslims which is not true. Arabs can be muslims/christians/jews etc.
In my opinion, the questions should've been as follow:
Q:Your religion is Judaism..?
A: Yes!
Q: your nationality is israeli..?
A:OMG yes!
Q: What is your race?
A:....
But it is not only Nationality, Religion and Race. Jews have different genes than the rest of the population. In fact, having a DNA test can tell you how Jewish you are. So it is clearly biological too. Just like DNA tests can tell a Black person exactly where their people originated from in Africa or how much Irish you possess. So it demonstrates one's roots. Quite useful because the various researchers working on digs have found artifacts that date genetic, Jewish presence for thousands of years.. It's a fact that many Arabs don't like of course so they lie and fabricate. Go to Israel and your mind will be changed forever.
They're not arabs fubdamentally jewish ancestors.
Only arab culturely(food, music, landuage ect)
The reason ashkenazis/indian/korean or jews from any other culture look different, is because jews been exiled for so long, recolution already changed their appearance while they also integrated in those societies.
Jewish is ethno religious not religion. You Can bé jewish and being atheist, you still bé jewish by blood. Try to learn History dna please.. you are saying bulshit .Big Big bulshit. L'îke the nazi would have Care about shabbat pessah or religious thing..that was thé race thing thé problèm they dont give a fuck about their belief. Stop your Propaganda.
"Race" is a weird concept. It only makes sense if groups never intermarry. My feeling is that "race" was mainly invented for the USA in order to feel that the different European groups can feel like one nationality ("white") which is different from African-Americans, natives, etc. Today, being a jew can be a religion, but usually it's more of an ethnic-cultural thing.
In the day when jews and Palestinians can truly feel their nationality is one (whether you call it Israeli or something else) is the day we will have peace.
Thanks!
Jews who come from Arab countries are not ethnic Arabs. They are Jews, belong to Jewish tribes. So even if the Jewish person is Yemeni or Moroccan, they are not Arabs.

So, war is only tolerable when it expends less than attractive men?
Yes...John.
Jimboparadox and Bitch English Huh.......I guess I concede then :/
You didn't get the memo John. War is a waste of beautiful men.
Exactly.
Great research! Sometimes things like this are better than academic papers for certain insights
5:55 what an unbelievable statement to make. To play victim when your entire “nation” migrated there this past century and was built upon the ruins of 500 cities, mass expulsions of over 750,000 natives, barbaric war crimes and to still have such a lack of responsibility for the current state, or any self awareness pertaining to their neighbor’s long time grievances that have naturally turned into pure resentment.
north Africa ain't arab. it is berber (amazigh), DNA studies show that only 4 per cent of north African genome is arab,
Zeusⵣ Zaouani not really from year 700 to 1830. There was HUGE arraabs & turkish immigration to north africa.
About 25% of north african are pure aarraaabs. 50% of north african are mixed aarraabs berbers. And only 25% of north african are purely berbers
And stop with your stupid racism. I always see berbers soo racist about aarraabs like if they were german. Vicking. Japaneese or italian roman 😂
Mathew Van Ostin There was no huge arab immigration to North Africa. Dont lie. Just a few thousand arab men migrated to North Africa to spread Islam. And they all married native North african women and some of them even returned to their homeland. You really think a few thousand arab men changes the dna of millions north africans already living in Norht Africa. Its the pan-arabism propaganda that NA went through that made people think they had to become an arab in order to become a good muslim. Good thing dna tests exists! They all say that up to 90% of Moroccans are native to NA.
Arab is not even a race to track down genes there is no such thing as arab dna
Reem Khatib arraab means that originate from saudi aarraabia. Yemen. Oman. Qatar. Emirates. Those are the pure aarraab
They expanded a loot during their golden age 600-1830
Mathew Van Ostin the true arabs came from a tribe in yemen as believed and they spoke the language but the language spread, Saudi arabia and the rest are called " aarab" or " الأعراب" cuz they adopted the language they're not the true pure arabs

In 2:46 the guy said that he doesn't see himself as an arab, not that he doesnt want to be an arab...
He also said he doesn't want to be arab
@Propel 2015 Lol probably because he doesn't want to have another identity than jewish...seriously wth is wrong with him not wanting to be an arab? it's not making him racist it is just making him a proud jew...stop looking from stupid things that no one meant to in that way..
@@amwr6861 when did I say that relegion means race?
you implied it: "seriously wth is wrong with him not wanting to be an arab? it's not making him racist it is just making him a proud jew.." . As if one can not be a proud jew and proud arab.
@@amwr6861 jewish is ethno religious thing. Not a religion, it's also tribes.
3:56 I'm Arab but come on i mean he's a jew and also half Persian of course he has a grudge against Arabs what do you expect here it's like he's been waiting for this question his whole miserable life💀
Well I really like these people and I’m Arabic 💕💕💕
Ur Arab not arabic, arabic is the language
They are cousins, but there is great enmity between them
Interesting video
Many Askenazis moved to Poland\Germany|East europe from Spain following the expulsion in 1492. My family too.
I think what you are doing is beautiful, although i hate the ongoing subjugation of the Palestinians to watch this shows a different perspective of things. Im a Muslim and to see this video was heart warming and it shows that people are people wherever. I pray for a peaceful solution to the ongoing conflict.
the palestinians are subjugated by hamas.
The half iraqi -half persian dude is so handsome, very attracitve.
Yaa his arab persian dna has given him this handsome genetics and look what he says !! I dont want to be Arab !! All these great genetics came from the Arabic roots !!
israel , arab , persian they look so same nothing different..
No Persians dont look like arabs
Mosa Aghbaria like your mother
Israhell
wtf man Arabs and Jews look like each other because they are cousins sharing same father Abraham, on the other hand, Persians they don't look like Arabs and Jews , in fact those Persian Israelis are not real Persians they are ethnically Jews who deported from there land to iran
Lara Lmjard I am an Iraqi and I see the Iranian people a lot , they look like Arabs and also the Assyrians look like Arabs and Kurds and they look like us and even some Turks look like Arabs ,,, this is not a strange thing, in the end we are all Middle Eastern
This was very interesting. ✔👍
Interesting to see (as half Persian myself - no religious) that the Persians were the ones with the leaf to say about Arab culture
2:20 he look like the Prince of Dubai Sheikh hamdan (fazza)
Haha because they are related... (same grand grand grand father Ibrahim)
He is arabian
As a moroccan i agree what the last man said about north African countries not being arab 👍
as a moroccan i can say they are 80-90% arab. you must not know history if you didn't know that Morocco became arabized 12! Centuries ago, not 50 years ago. 67% of the population is genetically arab, the other 33% is berber and sahrawi
3:04 i like this guy, the only one who was honest, even he's an arabic he recognized the problem of their people
Most Isreali men looks like this to begin with anyways lol
The last guy is so intelligent
3:23 that moment when you can’t differ a religion and an ethnicity
my exact thoughts
it's an ethno-religion
H Masri Islam? It’s 1000% not an ethno religion. You can have African Muslims, asian Muslims, Arab Muslims. Ethnically nothing connects them. Unlike Jews, who are both religiously and ethnically connected.
@Novea River you are mistaken, Ottoman didn’t forcefully convert entire ethnic groups, they had tax cuts for Muslims which incentivized conversions not forcefully. But you listen to Serb propaganda so there’s no changing your mind
@Novea River how about Serb forces attempted gen***ide of Muslims
as an algerian i agree with the last guy our culture is not 100% arab culture btw they look more arab then me
He is jewish, not arab. Jew is ethno religious.
@@mjmank4475 This is not true. There are many historically adherents to Judaism. There are even some Yemeni kings who converted to Judaism and carried out massacres of Christians.
@Mizrahi with Attitude After the European Jews were expelled, a false identity was created to deceive the Jews in the East. Look at the Yemeni Jew. Is it a coincidence that he looks Yemeni? Is it a coincidence that an Ethiopian Jew looks like an Ethiopian? Egyptian, Iraqi, Syrian, Moroccan and Tunisian? It is mentioned historically that there are people who entered Judaism, is it reasonable that all of them suddenly disappeared!! Is it a coincidence that the Jews of Yemen are on the paternal genetic mutation of the Hymyar kings, and it is a mutation that spreads in Yemen FGC3723

There are some tribes that inhabited the north of the Arabian Peninsula were Jews
The first guys he interviewed the one on the left is beautiful
The last guy, he is the most educated one.
I believe that is how Jewish people originally looked.

Palestinians and Jews share the same dna and are mostly all related.
I really like the last man, a lot of knowledge and precision
As a Jew, I think Jews are, in some aspects, so primitive that our ancient people never developed a true separation between Religion, Race, Culture & State (to a confusing degree). The primitive definition is that: A Jew is of the Jewish religion, of the Jewish race and of the Jewish state of Israel. This causes hardships for Jewish folks living in foreign countries and their voice is rarely heard within the Jewish spearhead of Israel. This causes identity conflicts for people who converted to Judaism and look European, mid-African or Far eastern. This is also always a sore point in political debates. I think part of this primitiveness comes from not having multiple countries of same religion like in Christianity or Islam. These more aggressive religions spread over huge parts of the world and conquered many peoples, cultures, ethnicities and countries. That, I'd guess, was a major engine in the drive to define what's the same and what's different about people of the same religion. Judaism is often thought of and viewed as one small group, one country, one culture and one people when in fact present day Judaism is a host of many groups (Israel, diaspora) many branches of religion, many cultures, ethnicities, etc.. Judaism must update itself and its defintions.
Being Arab is defined as someone whose mother tongue is Arabic. Most (if not all) of the people interviewed are born and raised in Israel meaning their mother tongue is Hebrew, so what’s the purpose of asking if they’re Arab when the answer is obviously no?
Being Arab is defined as someone originating from the Arab region, so the answer is obviously yes
But their grand parents didn’t speak hebrew they spoke arab
@@sheikha7309 exaclty theyre just lying because of the rampant racism in Israel against arabs. If you originate from an arab country you are arab, genetically the same, same physical looks. Arabs conquered many nations 100s of years ago its stupid to say they arent arab just because they got conquered it wasnt 100 years ago in 1923 it was 1400 years ago
Persians are Muslims, but they are Indo-European in origin. They are different from Arabs.
I am Persian and Italian! I love my culture! 💠
Although, I do not understand the point of this video. Is it to educate on the variation of ethnicity within the Middle East?
If you consider arabs a race, then it's fair of you to think that the Jews who immigrated from arab countries to be arab jews. In my personal opinion, arab is not a race but a culture, and the culture of the jews who came from arab countries is quite different to that of actual arabs. So in that sense, I don't think that "arab" jews are actually arab.
If you want to define it as a race, sure they are the same race. Technically I think there's already a word for it; Semitic.
To an outsider the cultures of arabs and middle eastern jews might seem very similar, but an uneducated outsider at first glance might even consider the cultures of China and Japan to be similar. But with a little bit of inquiry you can see how those are very different. Same thing with the cultures of middle eastern jews and arabs. Seems similar to outsiders at first glace, but with minor investigation; different indeed.
I really like the last man speach .. seems he's very educated.I am from Saadi Arabia and I really wish that the region will be stable and safe .We do not hate anyone , for us Jews are close to .us more than any other nation in the world If the Israelis and Palestinians agreed on 69 boarders or any things els then this will be the end of this case and we will consider all Israelis friends .
I believe most of the Arabia people are good and want peace, but the "royal" family is the bane of your countries existence, they dominate not only that but others around them , most notably Yemen.
Saudi Arabia are the biggest traitors to Islam. They fear jews more than Allah.
Europeans and North Americans have a similar opinions about Arabs as that one guy at 3:25, who himself is half Arab, and consider them aggressive and untrustworthy. I have friends who worked with Arabs and none of them had good stories to tell.
The last guy saying Arabs involve too much politics and religion?
Yet Israel was founded by politics and religion? Come on now..
The last guy who speaks in this video seems so kind an nice :-)
Tom, you look like Zayn😍
Maybe a good question: is there discrimination against jews from arab decent?
Never was mizrahi jewish pm
That dont exist ''jews arabs descent'' there are jews who used to migrated in arabic country, they are not arabs by blood they are jewish which IS ethno religious, and that all. Culture and mentality Can bé différent or course, that not changing thé fact that we are one people
