Genetic studies don't support it Yonis, no matter how much you want it to be true. I'm not saying that today's Ashkenazim are pure, since they certainly have a lot of Western blood, but they are for the large part indeed descendents of ancient Levantines.

A Genetic study written by Ashkenazi jews themselves, that thing might as well have been written by the israeli ministry of information.
Ps. I personally don't care about who the ancient hebrews/israeli were, but one thing is for sure, that the Ashkenazim are descendants of turkic people from the central asian steppes and don't belong to the so-called ten lost tribes of israel as the Mizrahi and Sephardic jews do.

^ I believe Yonis is referring to the study that showed Ashkenazi males to predominantly possess R1a lineages.
It was posted on this board before. If only I had the time to find it (or a search engine).

I watched the video again and I feel most parts of what is revealed in the video seems true. And key move here? Their objections are backed with demonstrated sources!!!

^ That's because we don't have any evidence of the Exodus. Not that the story itself was based upon somekind of true historical event, as most religious myths are.
We know that there was a community of Aamu (Asiatic) people in the eastern Delta who worked as servants or slaves. There is a theory among some scholars that the Exodus may have been based on a small group of Hebrew laborers who either left the country voluntarily or were deported.

Can you cite said genetic studies?

Judging from all the information I've gathered over the years and from many interpretations, Ancient Kemet seemed to have been a very proud society and didn't seem to go out of their way and make people into slaves. In my interpretation, seems that most of military engagement was played from a defensive point as oppose to being an initiator with other races except for Nubia/Meroe/whatever Ancient Sudan was back then, which happen be of the same race as Ancient Kemetians with both taking turns ruling each other and bickering with each other perhaps for thousands of years.
Foreigners seen in scenes of Ancient Kemet's bas-reliefs, paintings, watermarks…etc, normally showed prisoners of war and people of other nations who willingly, as a requirement of approach or not, offered lavish gifts to the Pharaohs including maids (daughters, wives) and not forced slavery leading to an Exodus as deceivers of history would want us to believe.
Finally, I believe generals and other important high officials from other nations captured in war were killed and used as sacrifices in ritual offerings to Ancient Kemetian Gods as Ancient Kemetians themselves were very direct at depicting this in their art of writings (ex: Narmer’s Tablet). Observing this fact, we can conclude they were a people who made their point without confusion. Therefore, if they didn't record any kind of Exodus and other nations back then didn't record any kind of Exodus, to the point where archeologists and other specialized scientists have found nothing as evidence of an Exodus, it is safe to say that there was no Exodus (or at least the kind invented by an ill minded few) and like other mythical stories, it is just that, a myth.
The idea that “there is a theory among some scholars” of an Exodus taking place with “small group of Hebrew laborers who either left the country voluntarily or were deported”, involving some “Asiatic people”, doesn’t hold up much air under current intellectual circumstances and atmosphere especially in the face of concluded and ongoing science.
