I have very little to add to this sadly, so this is more a post your knowledge post. I have heard a handful of different Jewish stories. Either they are the Caananites of the Bible, DNA shows this. They are Khazarians that adopted the religion to get into Europe. Some here say the Bible is all Jews and Jews being bad while others say the house of Israel were white, blue eye genetics from the Caucuses show this. I am wondering what the general concensus on this topic is around here.
Jews is just a word we use today. They are older. They are Phoenicians, who were pushed out of the black sea area by the scythian(yamnaya, aryan, cordedware, celt, whatever you want to call them it makes no difference. The original white horse lords) expansion. They came south through the dardanelles and settled in the Levant. They brought their god moloch, the lord(ba'al means lord) and their child sacrifice and they spread it across the Mediterranean. They were merchants, started by coming to a settlement port and trading and playing nice and asking to set up a trading camp with them and then slowly manipulating the people until they gained control. This is how they settled tunisia(carthage), Sicily, south east spain(iberia), and other spots along the coast. When Phoenicia fell, the other areas simply continued on.
They were the hyksos, the sea peoples, and others. We have had many names for them. Their modus operandi is always the same. The friendly helpful merchant entertainer who just wants to be friends and be a part of your society to rot it from within so it can gain control and sacrifice your children to its dark god.
Jews.
