2011 has gone down as the year of faked scholarship, but what if sound (if undaring) research is the victim of scientists' golden dreams of glory?
The prestigious journal Human Immunology first published the article "The Origin of Palestinians and Their Genetic Relatedness with Other Mediterranean Populations," then yanked it, instructing their subscribers to rip out the offending pages because they showed that Middle Eastern Jews and Palestinians are genetically almost identical. As of today, we still found the article online along with the editor's retraction and protests, but you'd better hurry if you want to read it. The censors who guard the scientific fables about Jewish DNA may discover a way to rewrite World Wide Web history as well as world history.
In the meantime, you can read about the whole lamentable mess in The Guardian in a story by Robin McKie, "Journal Axes Gene Research on Jews and Palestinians."
