most look normal Kurdish . but there are surely a few gypsies or mixed people in it too . 100%
not sure what you want to say with this video though ? and why you opened a classify thread on TA about them . i have the feeling that you want Kurds to be exotic because you are so atypical
you are annoying and i am tired of you . most of these kids in the video look normal Kurdish . but you dont

then what they are? not european for sure. phenotypically i consider them same as turk or georgian and genetically also they are not distant.

you dont look indian ....you look like what i said
and i see you as Kurdish . you ARE KURDISH
i would never reject any Kurdish person saying he/she is not my ethnicity no matter how atypical

Levantines are in between NWA and SWA. North caucasians are their own group in Europe. They aren't even located in northern west asia. And they also have a ton of EHG/steppe stuff which makes them more euro like than northern west asians.
North caucasians are euros but they are the on the very edge of europe. Also this muh euro thing. Euros are already quite diverse as it is.
Levantines are ofc not euros.
Phenotypically there is an overlap between north caucasians and georgians to a a decent extent. Keep in mind that north caucasians also have a variety of looks. But to turks I am not so sure phenotypically. Some north caucasians are a bit distant even to georgians and to turks too. Therefore isn't incorrect to claim what you said.
Levantines are neither phenotypically nor genotypically similar to georgians and turks despite having an enormous amount of NWA ancestry. A few individuals might overlap with turks in terms of pheno but that's the best they can do.
i consider Georgians as both European and NWA btw

i dont talking about levantines.
northern caucasians have less euro admixture than western anatolians and same as other turks. they don’t cluster with euro populations.
turks have some northern caucasian ethnicity their own top 20 cluster list.
we have many circassian etc. in here and they don’t look very different tbh.

my georgian family doesn't look more or less european than my turkish family.
but if u talking about culture yeah agree about georgians of georgia.
i consider western and northern turks to also be both euro and nwa

That's a relief.
"Euro admixture" and "cluster with euros".
Right now i am unable to run pcas for turks and north caucasians. But the only way turks could be closer to some balkan populations would be because of their equal to or close to EHG/steppe admix to north caucasians and turks also have more EEF which many euros also have a lot of. But EEF is anatolian/NWA component so your euro admix claim becomes baseless. But i'll have to run pca plots again to see who's closer to what. Also on average turks have more East Eurasian admix than north caucasians and more natufian which euros have very little to none of. Thag makes turks less like euros.
Just because turks get some north caucasian ethnicities in their top 20 distance list on some gedmatch calcs doesn't mean that they are close to one another and usually those distances are quite large as well.
I'll give you the phenotype argument because you know better than about the turkish phenotypical diversity.
