He looks very Italian too… Are you sure he’s not even a tiny bit Italian?
What?
Well, he apparently has a bit of Semitic/Canaanite heritage in his blood. The “Jewish” race is named Semitic/Canaanite, not “Jewish”. Because Jewish is the Abrahamic religion.
I meant that Judaism is the religion. But Jewish means any person who’s religion is Judaism.
