Reddit reply in r/AskTheologists: what are the implications of the jewish messiah — May 23, 2024 · l5btzzj | Ali Shukri Amin

There are so many things wrong with this it's hard to know where to begin.

1. Ashkenazi Jews trace their origins to the Holy Roman Empire.
2. They intermarried with Europeans and had some European converts. Ethnically, they did not isolate themselves with solely middle Eastern genes.
3. According to "Ethnic origin and identity in the Jewish population of Israel" by Noah Lewin-Epstein & Yinon Cohen in 2018, 32% of Israelis identified as Ashkenazi (immigrants from Europe).
4. Another over 50% of Israeli Jews had some Ashkenazi descent, although it was not pure Ashkenazi.
5. That paper indicates, which is corroborated elsewhere, ethnic tensions against other Jews (Sephardic, Mizrahi) because some Ashkenazi see their whiteness as supremacy.
6. The Ottomans abolished Jizya during the Capitulations which was about 100 years before the Balfour declaration. Furthermore, jizya is a flat tax around 5-10% - WAY less than the taxes modern Israelis pay.
7. There were no pograms in the entire Islamic world against Jews.
8. There is no evidence that "Palestinians" moved anywhere after the Balfour declaration. That's a myth you cannot corroborate. Those were natives indigenously living there.
9. Muslims always gave Jews freedom to practice their religion because Islamic law is communitarianism. The greatest Jewish scholars wrote in classical Arabic, like Maimonides.
10. You literally are advocating to pre-emptively kill Muslims because of your fear of oppression.

Everything you said amounts to a bunch of Israeli nationalist mythology that has no basis in reality and is the narrative currently used to justify a genocide. Please come back to reality before you face the Creator.
