Wait, jewish is a testable DNA race? I thought it was a religion....
Is that why most Jewish people have curly hair, different noses, darker skin?
It's their religion that gives them super powers rite.

Here's to hoping one day, some folks in here find out they have some Arabic,Persian,Mexican,African blood.

Don't worry Earl, even if you don't have some of those in your blood, you can easily marry into them.
Mexican blood? You mean Native American?
It's probably more accurate to say that most jews fall into certain genetic groups. Ashkenazis and Shephardi are the big groups.

Considering that Jews of Europe had much in common as gypsies do in old Europe, meaning they were nomadic, those genes got sprinkled around pretty much everywhere in Europe. But just having genes from a people that come from a region does not make you Jewish. But as someone else described, that's just the Mediterranean look.
Are you familiar with Ashkenazi jews? They don't exactly look Mediterranean. I'm not sure what you're getting at. Are you doubting the scientist's conclusion that Hitler had jewish genes? Do you think it's impossible to find distinct genetic traits in groups of people?
Errr, Ashkenazi Jews are Mediterranean. It literally means German Jews.

Again, people with "Ashkenazi" genetic markers are all over Europe. The people were originally nomadic as they had to flee their original lands in the Middle east. The markers that set apart Ashkenazi Jews in Europe though are common markers in the middle east. Bleh, it's genetic traits brought out by a region.
I think the classification name they are using for that particular set of genetic markers is pretty dumb though.
The fact is all humans share the same 95% of genetics unlike any other species on this planet. We all share a very narrow common heritage that most scientists speculate was due caused by a super volcano that killed off other human types around the globe and the current homo-sapiens are what survived. Anyhow, I'm digressing a bit.
Does it really matter that Hitler had some shared genetic markers from humans commonly from the ME and Africa? Considering how many people in this world do as well without even knowing it? So many people have so many recessive genes that get passed to them from so many generations back that they wouldn't even know they had those traits. Does that make Hitler hypocritical? No. However, it still doesn't mean he was any less insane.
What is somewhat revealing is that Adolph Hitler still has some 50 genetically close living relatives, none of which are seemingly bat shit crazy mass murders or even mass murder wannabess.
Which tells us right away, genes have little to do with psychotic and anti-social behavior. But at the end of the day, even if Adolph Hitler ended up being a twisted sad and sorry excuse for a human being, he still would not have gone down in history as a mass murder and a truly in human monster if so many other "normal" people refused to follow his lead.
So in the one thread that a Loonbeam self-hate rant would be appropriate, he is nowhere to be found?
People are really displaying a poor understanding of genetics in this thread. There are genetic links to schizophrenia, for example. It doesn't mean they magically pop out like a monster. Genes interact with the environment in complex and specific ways that we are still trying to figure out. Doesn't mean Hitler's genes didn't inform his condition.
There are indeed genetic links for schizophrenia, but Hitler was certainly not schizophrenic. He was "sane" in the clinical sense. He more than likely had what is now typically recognized as Narcisisstic and Anti-Social Personality Disorders. Those disorders, which are really a complex of personality traits, have not been positively linked to genetics as yet. Even if genetics is ultimately found to play some role, the nurture side is almost certainly predominant with these particular traits.

Sociopathic is more like it. I think that's very genetic. Just look at Autism.
Sociopathic is exactly what I meant by "Anti-Social Personality Disorder" and it is exactly what I'm saying does not appear to have genetic roots. I don't get your reference to autism in this context.

Autism is an anti-social personality disorder. Autism is strongly genetic.
Last I heard all of us have "African" DNA/roots because that is where humans started.
"Anti-social" in the context of a personality disorder means lacking empathy for other humans beings, and other related traits. It doesn't mean "anti-social" in the common sense of being cut off from others i.e. introverted or socially under developed, which is what autistics are in the extreme sense. In any event, there is zero connection between anti-social personality disorder and autism. Autistics are not as a rule sociopaths.
