Kind of explains the general vibe of relations between everyone in that area historically

I don't really care about conspiracy theorists. Mainly because they ignore 2000 years of accepted archeology.

This led me to look up similar information. Another article [1] looks into this a little more deeply.

I feel there is a resurgence of despising European dominance over the last 200 years and Israel is just another point here. Thus, we have material hypothesizing the illegitimacy of European Jews when the Jews of other ethnicities may have better acceptance in the region. (But all of this is just a vague hypothesis.)
