Mel Brooks was right all this time: Native Americans are Jewish!

Don't say you were not warned:

A population of Native American Indians from the US state of Colorado has been found to have a genetic mutation typical of Ashkenazi Jews. The finding suggests the presence of common roots that date back to the days of Christopher Columbus.

According to RT news, the so-called “Ashkenazi mutation” is a deleterious modification in BRCA1 gene which increases risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer. Researchers from the Sheba (Tel Hashomer) Medical Center in Israel found it in the DNA of descendants of those Indians who moved from Mexico to Colorado some 200 years ago.
So there:

There is a tribe of Cherokee in  Tennessee that claims an older Jewish decent.  They claim that Jews came to the New World right after the destruction of Solomon's Temple.  That is thousands of years before this tribe's DNA.

The good news about the Tennessee Cherokee is that they are staunch Zionists.  The bad news is that they are staunch Zionists.  I say we should welcome them into the Tribe and enjoy the benefits of being able to build a casino brings us.

One of the funnyist parts of Mel Brooks' funnyist movie! Real LOL!
Mel Brooks is great as a Yiddish speaking Indian chief! Thanks for the link and the story, Snoopy.

Seriously; in the 17th & 18th Centuries, the was quite a bit of speculation amongs white scholars in both Europe and the Americas that the American Indians were the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel.

Katie, I agree with Snoopy, Israel should immediately begin talks with this group of Cherokees to make them members of the Tribe.

Have known several people, black and white, whose families come from Tennessee and who are part-Cherokee. One friend did a painitng from an old photo of her great-grandfather and great-grandmother, a full-bloodied Cherokee, who got married around 1900.
