My point is that a lot of times you can't tell if someone is Jewish or white :P
True.
But then again I could say that I notice Jewish traits moreso than the average person.

One Hispanic on my bus looked quite Jewish and I called her a Jew once (My friends never noticed) and she asked how I knew she was 1/2 Jewish.

Good for you, but that doesn't contradict my point exactly ;P

You called them White.
They look white and thats all I care. The fact that they are Jewish doesn't change the fact they are white to me.

If you need more info to call them white then why don't you test them genetically?


I just used the average for Jews of the world.
Which doesn't mean anything as far as the particular senators you mention.

They are Jewish - and Jews tend to be nonWhite by genetics.

If you find a genetics test from that man and find out he IS White tell me - but until then, with the fact that Jews as a people have a genepool of [most likely less than] 12.5% White (Funny how American Blacks are 'Whiter' than European Ashkenazi Jews with 30%) I can infer that they are, indeed, nonWhite - until proven otherwise.

Good thing he's 1/2 French.
And if you look at other pictures closely - you can SEE that he's not Europod.

A Syrid nose is a Mideastern trait - NOT a European/White one.

And, honestly, I would have thought he was a Jew even without us on topic about Jews.

He just looks like the typical Jew.

If you think he's White - what country of origin would he fit into? What subrace?

But he looks white. And lots of Jews look white. Black people don't look white unless they have a whole lot in them. When people make decisions they do not look at the genetic factor unless it really shows.

And that guy would fit into the category of my sisters math teacher

You say that - but I don't think he does.

Not to me.
But I guess I have a better eye for these things.

And that guy DOES look like a typical Jew.
He looks similar to David Cole.

Why would I have a picture of my sisters math teacher? lol

I mean you may not think he looks white but that's because you pay too much attention to the way other types of people look. Most people who look at him will probably think he is white and a lot of people Find Jewish as still white. But if you don't think so that's your own mentality.

Why bring it up?
Saying something like 'I know a Jew that looks White' doesn't mean much unless you have a picture.


I mean you may not think he looks white but that's because you pay too much attention to the way other types of people look.
So you're saying since I know the various looks of people I can tell what people are by how they look?
WOW.

If he has nonWhite traits common among Jews it hints at Jewish ancestry.
Just because you think nonWhite Jewish traits are White traits it doesn't mean they are.


Most people who look at him will probably think he is white and a lot of people Find Jewish as still white. But if you don't think so that's your own mentality.
It's unscientific and illogical.

As genetic testing SHOWS that Jews are not White - it's WRONG to say that they are.

Maybe this guy IS White - maybe his parents are converts or he is.
I don't know.

But, MOST Jews aren't converts.
And MOST Jews are nonWhite racially.

Therefore - I take the averages and (Because I don't have a picture or any info at all about him) I say that he's nonWhite.

But again, Jews look white and many people don't go through a whole analysis on his nose or his genetic makeup when they look at people. There are many instances where you think someone could be Jewish but they aren't. Besides, your the one who implied that you can tell what someone is by how they look. Not me so that "WOW." is questionable.

Why are you people arguing about jews not being white???

In the eyes of WHITE AMERICA jews are WHITE.
If you look caucasion America deems you caucasion
and i dont see Jews saying "HEY, WAIT!! IM NOT WHITE IM JEWISH!" When they get the same job opportunities and treatment that white people in america get.
Its called optional racial identity.

Race is more than just what you look like.
And his nose is easier to describe than facial features - both of them resembling Jews.

That is true.
If someone had Jewish parents and they became an atheist and married another atheist - their kids wouldn't be considered Jewish - but they would still look like it.


Besides, your the one who implied that you can tell what someone is by how they look. Not me so that "WOW." is questionable.
It's not with 100% accuracy but I can many times tell the race of someone by looking at them - especially with the 4 or 5 race classifications.
