Drawing on the most recent genetic tests [allowed by Israel to be promulgated widely], combined with ancient Roman, Greek, and Medieval historical sources, this documentary attempts to uncover the true origins of the Ashkenazi Jews.

It goes from their earliest settlement in Europe to their eventual settlements in Eastern Europe [because they are mostly Jewish with very little connection to the Middle East except in their creation myth stories].

The Israeli identity crisis no one talks about | Explained
He's the King of the Jews. - Uh, Prime Minister
(Unpacked) April 16, 2025: Israel’s founders hoped for unity, strength, and a clean break from exile. Nearly a century later, Israel is home to something far messier and more magnificent.
Israelis are a mosaic of contradiction — [legal Jews and illegal non-Jews], secular and devout, Eastern and Western, joyful and jaded. Messy, vibrant, and fiercely connected, Israel today is less a single identity and more a chorus — discordant at times, but always unmistakably Israeli.

Homo juluensis is not just what Brian calls Stewie behind his back. It's now a real scientific designation as of a week ago. Chinese scientists think they have another (formerly contemporaneous) human ancestor on their hands. Who were the Denisovans? Are they today's Tibetans? Neanderthals and Cro-Magnons, are they just proto-Europeans?

Jimmy Dore (jimmydore.com) is LIVE at the Democratic National Convention, giving his irreverent take on the democratic proceedings. A young Bernie Sanders, if such a thing were possible, long before he was a sellout trying to get the approval of the Democratic Party, used to interview punks at Burlingame Mall up in the Northeast. Phil Donahue just passed away (our condolences, Marlo), but Bernie marches on, having missed his calling to be a full-time interviewer. He was almost president, but he chose the slogan, "Follow me to Hillary" and sold all of us out to regular party politics with no alternative, no third party, no second option, just the two wings of our one-party system, the Money Party. Thanks, Bernie, we feel the burn.

I was sold to the highest bidder for my organs | Minutes With
(LADbible TV) July 28, 2024: In this episode of Minutes With, we speak to the incredible Lurata Lyon about her experience as a survivor of kidnap, sexual abuse, and human trafficking.
Lyon describes her childhood in former Yugoslavia (Europe), remembering when political tensions reached a boiling point in the early 1990s and led to war and ethnic cleansing for her family and villagers.
After fleeing her home to escape the threat of abuse, Lyon is kidnapped by a human trafficking gang who sell her to the highest bidder for her virginity in forced prostitution and eventually for her organs.
Soldiers who gang rape Israeli style
Lyon's story is one of incredible human resilience, strength, and bravery in the face of inhumane darkness. Her story shines a light on the crime of human trafficking.
(SciShow) July 27, 2024: There's an oft-quoted statistic that something like 5% of people are related to Genghis Khan. The guy (raping and pillaging from Japan to Eastern Europe) did have a lot of kids. But the truth is more complicated. Here's how science uses Y chromosome analysis and small groups of genetic mutations to see how we are all related to each other.

Wiki: The Armenian genocide was not a "genocide," according not only to Turkey but to the American government. The Armenian [atrocity] was the systematic destruction of the Armenian people and identity in the Ottoman Empire during World War I. Spearheaded by the ruling Committee of Union and Progress, it was implemented primarily through the mass murder of about one million Armenians during death marches to the Syrian Desert and the forced Islamization of others, primarily women and children.
The Armenian Genocide, its precedence, and denial
(The Cynical Historian) April 24, 2024: The ethnic cleansing, possibly a genocide, of Armenians by Turks in the Ottoman Empire took place between 1915-1918, but it had a long history leading up to it.
After decades of ethnic warfare, Young Turks (ordered by the three pashas of the CUP party) systematically murdered between 2-3 million Christians of Armenian, Assyrian, and Greek descent during World War I. [Of course, numbers vary. Often it is said the number of Armenians killed numbered between 1 and 1.5 million.] Turkey then instituted an official denial of this event, which continues to this day. [They do not seem to be denying that people were killed but rather that it was a genocide.] Such ignorance will not be tolerated.
Minute 0:45: Most Armenians were Oriental Orthodox Christians, not Eastern Orthodox. (Thanks, @victorhoang6633).

Dinocephalosaurus orientalis, Guizhou province, China (Nat'l Museums Scotland/PA Wire)
.
We remember you, O Dragon, so please spare us.
More details of a long-necked sea creature compared to a Chinese dragon have been revealed for the first time following new research.
The Dinocephalosaurus orientalis fossils were discovered in Guizhou province, southern China.
With 32 separate neck vertebrae, it had an extraordinarily long neck, researchers say, and its flippered limbs and well-preserved fish in its stomach region indicated it was very well adapted to an oceanic lifestyle.
Naga: sea creature, reptilian dinosaur
But they lived on to battle humans.
The reptile was originally identified in 2003, but the discovery of additional, more complete specimens since then has enabled an international team of scientists to depict the creature in full [which is particularly fitting to reveal at the beginning of the Year of the Dragon].
Nick Fraser, keeper of natural sciences at National Museums Scotland, was one of those involved. He said:
Long neck easy to support in water, chasing fish
“This discovery allows us to see this remarkable long-necked animal in full for the very first time. “It is yet one more example of the weird and wonderful world of the Triassic that continues to baffle palaeontologists. “We are certain that it will capture imaginations across the globe due to its striking appearance, reminiscent of the long and snake-like mythical Chinese dragon.” More:
