    They were quiet for a thousand years. Seems they need another lesson.

    Some ignoramuses don't know why Zionism originated in Europe. Five Hundred plus years ago is the topic, Chrissey. If you want to talk about something else, start a thread.

    Phreeloader? Just not a Pharisee.

    Something else happened in 1492 , there was a mass expulsion of Jews after the Alhambra decree.

    DNA studies show that Columbus was most likely Sephardic jew and took his flight to flee religious persecution

    Was the woke renaming of Columbus Day just another way to show hatred towards any Jewish presence in the US? 🤔

    Recent DNA analysis of remains believed to be Christopher Columbus's suggests he may have been a Sephardic Jew from Spain, challenging the traditional view that he was from Genoa, Italy. This theory, presented in a Spanish documentary, is based on genetic markers found in the remains and aligns with long-standing speculation about a potential Jewish background. However, some experts urge caution, noting the complexity of DNA analysis for definitive conclusions and the fact that Columbus's writings do not

    Believed to be doesn't cut it. He was a Paisan!

    @Sledog (damn vanilla)

    I'm not claiming definitively he was or wasn't. There are however those that feel there isn't much doubt.

    I was suggesting that if so, we may have the true motivation behind cancelling Columbus Day.

    Well since Rome ruled all of Europe and people moved all about the empire including Italy an Italian can have mixed euro DNA. That's very common. You could say they were all Roman citizens and therefore all Italian. Dagos ruled the world longer than anyone else.

    @Sledog

    Historical evidence from Nineva corroborates Jewish history on this.

    In the first captivity under the Assyrian empire, the idol worshipping Jews from the northern kingdom (Ephraim ) of Israel were dispersed throughout the nations..

    This was customary practice for that empire to dilute the conquered captives with other populations to circumvent any uprisings.

    Many Israelites from all the 12 tribes joined with the northern kingdom taken by Assyria.

    The ones from the other tribes who didn't join the northern kingdom in idol worship moved to the southern kingdom and joined with Judah and Benjamin of the southern kingdom.

    The Assyrian king tried to take Jerusalem but failed. No mention in the writings at Nineva mention capturing Jerusalem and the Bible recounts the story with the slaying of the 18500 Assyrian solders one night

    The southern kingdom was subsequently conquered by Babylon , after Cyrus released the Jews, many of whom decided to stay in Babylon while 50,000 + returned to Jerusalem.

    The northern tribes that were taken by Assyria are the basis of where the "10 lost tribes" of Israel derives.

    They aren't lost, many moved into the southern kingdom prior to the Assyrian captivity.

    The rest were (in the Bible) were judged by God for their wickedness.

    The Point is Jews were in every nation prior to Columbus sailing in 1492 known or unknown. Columbus very well may have Jewish heritage as suggested by DNA tests.

    As far as his writings, there was this event in AD 32 and thousands of Jews were eye witnesses and believed and became Jewish Christians.

    Make up your own mind…but first do your own research and make sure to evaluate all the history and evidence.

    I believe he may have been along with many of those on the boats fleeing persecution.
