What do you mean they are Iraqi culturally? Iraqi Jews are 100% Iraqi and trace their ancestors to ancient Iraq and ancient Iraq was called Mesopotamia from South Iraq all the way to North Iraq...Iraqi Jews have the same Mesopotamian DNA as Iraqi Muslims and Iraqi Christians...And Iraqi Jews have an Iraqi culture. That is there culture ever since they left Iraq..
There is No such thing as "Hebrew Israelites Jews" LOL!..Jews are NOT a race. Anyone can be a Jew because Jews are a religion. So, Iraqi Jews come from the same Iraqi Mesopotamian ancestors as Iraqi Muslims and Iraqi Christians. Jews never had a country based on their religion. And according to Jewish religion Jews are NOT even suppose to have a country until their "messish" comes back to this world. Most Iraqi Christians and Iraqi Muslims love Iraqi Jews and wish they never left their real homeland which is Iraq(Mesopotamia).
LOL, This is too funny. Iraqi Jews are the same as Iraqi Muslims and Iraqi Christians as well as Iraqi people who follow other ancient religions..DNA has proven this as well, so don't post false information. European Jews are the ones who have Northern Middle Eastern ancestors who had moved out to Europe thousands of years ago..LOL, sorry to burst your bubble but Assyrians are actually real 100% Iraqi people just like how Chaldean are 100% real Iraqi people. Many Iraqi Arabs are actually real Iraqi people who trace their ancestors to ancient Mesopotamia(Iraq)...Mandeans are also 100% Iraqi. So you just proved my point, and that is Iraqi Jews are 100% Iraqi and they came from Mesopotamia(Iraq) NOT Palestine or any other place..An Iraqi Jew is more close to Iraqi Arab Muslims and Iraqi Assyrian Christians and Iraqi Chaldean Christians more than Iraqi Jews being close to Black Jews.
