Russian? Syrian? Italian? etc etc etc...
This is a question out of a purely inquisitive and sociological nature. No offense is to be given by this, and no generalizations are implied.
The truth is that in today's world, as in the world of the past, Ashkenazi (European) Jews have been seen by many, by anti-semite and not alike, as more than a religion, but as a race with distinct physical characteristics.
Geneticists have concluded that many Ashkenazi Jews share a common gene pool originating in the Middle East, largely of the Fertile Crescent, but as is clear to the modern eye, we Jews don't seem to resemble any single ethnicity in particular anymore.
What do you think?
