I didn't write anything about him being a Kurd there. I just wanted classification.

but it is still a troll attempt . i am not stupid

and yesterday you tried to argue that he might be just a dark kurd . just lol

only because you are atypical you are trying to exotify Kurds . disgusting behaviour

it is basically like "if i suffer everybody shall suffer" because you seem to suffer from being exotic

Those people don't say anything different anyway. There is no one to say that he looks completely Kurdish. As much as I have Kurdish features, the man in the video has the same features as me.

why are you always talking about yourself ?

you are not like the man in the video . but it doesnt matter what anybody says . you have issues with yourself

It was until I was 3, but English is my language, my first language. I am more an Anglo Australian now, and identity is whatever a person chooses. I cannot speak Maltese.

We have a different definition of what identity means. But I don't speak Hebrew or any semitic language myself. Never did. Although i can read in Hebrew a little bit because I had to read from Torah for my bar mitzvah when I turned 13. Therefore my mother tongue isn't a semitic language. However, I still identify as a jew and as a semite because those were the identities of my ancestors and my family members. One must identify with what their ancestors were rather than where they live or what language they speak.

Well the only ancestors I knew were my parents, and I didn't know any other Malts, so how can one identify with that, and I wasn't a family person, I still am not. I grew up in the inner city of Melbourne in an area with a large Italian population, which is why I speak Italian, but I don't identify with Italians either. What I know is that Maltese people don't identify as Semites and think of themselves as Latin Europeans who follow Roman Christianity.
You just have to be tolerant of those who don't comply to your idea of identity.

There's a member called Tooting_Carmen?

This is an old postcard from Algeria bagging the appearance of some of the locals and immigrants especially the Spanish. The Napoli Italian, and the Maltese women are spot on.
