One of the leaders of the European Jews said that there was one way that he could prove that the Arabs and the European Jews were the e same Semitic people because both of them have big noses. I wish I was making it up! Take a look:
14 July 1947 Dr. Magnes giving testimony at the UN Special Committee on Palestine:
Why do we call the Jews and the Arabs Semitic people? It is because they have presumably more or less a common ancestry. There is no racial problem, therefore between them. An Arab cannot say to a Jew, “You have a big nose”, because a lot of Arabs have bigger noses .
