So, if you are right, I am Palestinian! Great! I'm going to run against Arafat... Oh, wait, if I do, he will cancel (can sell?) his elections! However I have no reason to doubt that Jericho was a non Jewish city that was most probably "etnically cleansed" by the incoming/returning Jews, without the saxo music; that Jerusalem was also inhabited by some locals that were either assimilated/killed/kicked out. And till decisive info, I consider the Jewish tribes to be of pure Afghan descent. PS: Sharon starts speaking. Mofas speaks first. Lightnings in his eyes. I'd hate to be Pal tonight even tough I should win the elections easy because Arfie may be washed out...

The article presents the relatedness of Palestinians and Jews as controversial. I don't know why. There have been plenty of other such articles published which make the same or similar points. csulb.edu tarkus.pha.jhu.edu This means that Jews are Palestinians by ancestry. And Turks are (mostly) Greeks by ancestry. And most Arabs are not Arabs by ancestry. BTW, read something recently which said the Welsh weren't Celtic by ancestry but were desceded from Basques (now found in NE Spain).

The journal's editor, Nicole Sucio-Foca, of Columbia University, New York, claims the article provoked such a welter of complaints over its extreme political writing that she was forced to repudiate it . The article has been removed from Human Immunology's website, while letters have been written to libraries and universities throughout the world asking them to ignore or 'preferably to physically remove the relevant pages'. I scanned that article you posted the links for. It does have 'political content' that is unusual, I suspect, in a scientific article about human genetic distribution over time. See pp 3-4 of the .pdf file idesign.fl.net.au. and you'll see what I'm getting at. If the paper we pull up at that URL is the original untampered paper. I think what the search engines are pulling up is something that's cached on google or someplace. The idesign site doen't seem operative. It's had quite a bit of play on the net.
