Your post is totally non sequitur to my post. My post had nothing to do with drones.

Here's an AI database query for you to consider:

According to Wikipedia, the term "Semitic people" is an outdated term for a cultural, ethnic, or racial group associated with people from the Middle East. This includes Jews, Arabs, Akkadians, and Phoenicians. The term is now mostly used in linguistics to group "Semitic languages".
According to Wikipedia, Ashkenazi, North African, and Sephardi Jews share a significant amount of genetic ancestry. This ancestry comes from Middle Eastern and European populations.
According to Wikipedia, about 85% of the world's Jews are Ashkenazim, and the other 15% are Sephardim. About 10% of the world's Ashkenazim live in Israel, compared with about 80% of all Sephardim. The Sephardim make up about 55% of Israel's Jewish population, and the Ashkenazim about 45%.
According to Wikipedia, Kurdish and Sephardi Jews have indistinguishable paternal genetic heritage. About 32% of Ashkenazi Jews belong to the mitochondrial Haplogroup K. A 2006 study suggests that about 40% of the current Ashkenazi population is descended matrilineally from just four women.

The above is confusing gibberish generated by AI...

This whole thing is getting really F'd up and It's been in the works for quite a while. The comments in the quote are just plain stupid...

Judaism is a religion....

One does not expect religions to be genetically determined.

Still, the Palestinians who are being driven out of Gaza are of Semitic descent. Yeshua was also a Semite according to the historic population of Israel, and the "woman at the well" was most likely a non- Jewish Semite. There were no cultural or religious issues between them according to Biblical text.

The article below is obfuscation. There is no such thing as "Jewish descent". Religion is something you opt into or opt out of. For me it is a simple cultural trait.

Spirit is One.

I had a wholesale business at one point, selling Spiritually symbolic jewelry. I had Spirtual fellowship with customers who followed several different religious traditions. I had no problem discussing Sprituality with them and sharing and praying with them.

Some of my customers were "gay"... I am irrevocably heterosexual. I also discussed this issue with them and found out that "homosexuality" could easily be tied to abuse by the opposite sex. While I haven't done an in depth study my personal experience, derived from the discussions, is that it seems to be a response to abuse by males and I found no evidence that it was an expression of a biological trait.

Religion is a cultural thing, it has nothing to do with genetics.

G-d is.

Spirit is One.

Genetic markers cannot determine Jewish descent

Abstract
Humans differentiate, classify, and discriminate: social interaction is a basic property of human Darwinian evolution. Presumably inherent differential physical as well as behavioral properties have always been criteria for identifying friend or foe. Yet, biological determinism is a relatively modern term, and scientific racism is, oddly enough, largely a consequence or a product of the Age of Enlightenment and the establishment of the notion of human equality. In recent decades ever-increasing efforts and ingenuity were invested in identifying Biblical Israelite genotypic common denominators by analysing an assortment of phenotypes, like facial patterns, blood types, diseases, DNA-sequences, and more. It becomes overwhelmingly clear that although Jews maintained detectable vertical genetic continuity along generations of socio-religious-cultural relationship, also intensive horizontal genetic relations were maintained both between Jewish communities and with the gentile surrounding. Thus, in spite of considerable consanguinity, there is no Jewish genotype to identify.

Keywords: Khazar origins of Ashkenazim; Y-chromosome inheritance of Cohanim; biology of the Jews; evolution at DNA-sequence level; genetics of race; horizontal vs. vertical inheritance.
