        I know it’s a joke and all, but “white” people have been in the a Middle East since before Jesus.

        You can find the whitest people you know even as far as Xinjiang in modern day China and they arrived there thousands of years ago BCE.

        Genetics are not defined to one area unless cut off from all ability for a population pool to travel/leave. We’re gradients of features that don’t fit nicely into geopolitical borders.

      Umm, I think his dad had strong genes, he just “looked like a common man” but could have had black, white, Asian, Polynesian features. Assuming his dad was not, then probably this would be “historically accurate” for someone born of two jews
