Pashtuns are ethnic Jews from Isreal?

[PakhtunWarrior]

I read a report the other day, which i cannot find anymore, claiming the Pashtuns could be one of the lost tribes if Bani Isreal.

Come to think of it, we have quite a lot of similarities but I find it hard to believe.

Has anyone else heard of this?

No we are not Israelites

According to the Y-chromosome DNA studies from pakistan, pashto speaking people are more closely related to european than to jewsh. there is no scientific proof that pashtuns are one of the 10 lost tribes.

Two populations, the Kashmiris and the Pathans, also lay claim to a possible Jewish origin. Jewish populations commonly have a moderate frequency of haplogroup 21 (e.g., 20%) and a high frequency of haplogroup 9 (e.g., 36%; (Hammer et al. 2000). The frequencies of both of these haplogroups are low in the Kashmiris and Pathans, and haplogroup 28 is present at 13% in the Pathans, so no support for a Jewish origin is found, and the admixture estimate was 0%.

Pashtuns are not semitics but they try ever so hard just to be one.

these days they try hard to be everything other than themselves... some like to be arabs, some Hebrews, some Punjabies and others farsi zubaan

Pashtuns are not European either, only ones might have gotten raped by white british crusaders. This explains why th might have some DNA of them in Pakistam and kashmir

pashtuns come from the iranic i.e aryan family.... the family which ultimatly gave rise to the european peoples

If that's the case(which I doubt) Shouldnt it be "Europeans come from the Aryan(i don't think Pashtuns are Aryan) iranic family?

[torkham]

plenty of DNA/Y-crimesomal research on Haployd frequency of population migration theories are published on the web carried out by various jenetic research on anthropological diversity - all conclude pashtuns are NOT the 12 jewish lost tribles of israel (thu! thu! thu!), Laho Lawa Quwata, even i know biojenetic stuff and I am a truck driving Momand from the badlands between Nangarhar and Surobi.

there is also non-scientific historical claims of Irmia, Afghana, Qais, Sulaiman (AS), clearly claiming jewish connection, but the story books, I mean history books have conflicting names, father, relations of the sons of the jewish tribes. there are contradictions. it does not add up!!!!

then there are plenty ambitious jews of occupied palestine (they call it israel) claiming afghans as their jewish brothers who became muslim. they even compare jewish tribe names with pashtun tribes subtribes !!!! it does not add up!!

one author, he is reported as afghan, could have been from india, who wrote the history of pashtuns. some mad englishman found the book started this false rumour.

yes pashtuns have beards/oh, jews have beards, yes pashtun circumcise boys/oh. jew circumcise, yes pashtuns have tribes/ oh jews....., yes SOME pashtuns have hawkish features/oh! jews . . . ., BINGO, pashtuns are the 12 lost tribes of feken israel, where did they appear from in southern part of central asia?

^^^^it comes from when some Jewish tribes were exiled east of Persia.

[pukhtana]

no we are not. There are no similarities.

LOL!
then why the Indian race(Pakistani and Indian) doesnt have their DNA in them? I think white British crusaders ruled India (todays Pakistan as well) for like more than 200 years.
DONT TALK BS!!!

If that's the case(which I doubt) Shouldnt it be "Europeans come from the Aryan(i don't think Pashtuns are Aryan) iranic family?

europeans did come frm the aryan family except the slavs... anyway pashtu is an iranic language and its irrelevent what u and ur wacky theories think....
