[Cz-L] genes

Just a short comment regarding our genes. We share 80% of our DNA with wheat
and at least 98% with chimpanzees, so I personally don't find looking into
our DNA very promising. We'd therefore better concentrate on our history,
language, habits and memories...

About Bukowina or Bucovina Jews being spread all over the globe
and about us carrying with us the unwritten history of our people,
the language, the habits , the memories of good and bad times,
I agree completely.
About the genes: NISCHT GESTOIGEN, NISCHT GEFLOIGEN,
NOR VOM FINGER OISGESOIGEN.

The Khazars have vanished, as have the ancient Romans, but their
genes live on in their descendants, the people who live between
the Black and the Caspian seas. If someone wanted to compare DNA,
they could. Anyhow, what was so great about the Khazars?

Bukowina Jews do share DNA with Sephardi Jews, in fact the first
Jews to settle in the Bukowina, when it was a Turkish province,
Were Sephardi Jews. All Jews share some DNA with all other Jews,
but also with Arab Palestinians and with Poles, Czechs, Austrians,
Russians and Ukrainians, among whom they lived. That is where
the blue eyes come from. The Khazars were Turkic people
and only the albinos among them, had blue eyes.

Wir sind nicht RASSENREIN (racially pure), just as well,
we are HYBRIDS, chosen for hybrid vigor.
