Once again, for any newcomers or anybody who might have missed it, this is what Neanderthals looked like (with the 8" fur coat removed):
With the fur coat:

The 8" fur coat is why nobody's ever found a Neanderthal needle, a creature with an 8" fur coat doesn't NEED clothing or needles. SunnkenCiv and one or two other Neanderthal-Apologists on FR are basically perpetrating a fraud at this point.
If that thing in your pictures is what Neanderthals really looked like, then that thing wasn’t making pressure flaked stone blades and fashioning them to spears and such. No way in God’s green earth. That thing is quite a few evolutionary steps short of a tool making animal.
You’re saying the females of neanderthal species would be too repugnant for the male of the homo sapien species.
I’ll buy that.
However, since the data shows that the mitochondria didn’t change—what that means is that it was male neanderthal that interbred with homo sapien females.
They also place the interbreeding +-125,000 years ago in the middle east
That’s entirely possible. All that would take would be one battle between homo sapiens and neanderthals in which the neanderthals won and killed the homo sapien males. In the middle east the neanderthals coexisted with the homo sapiens according to the data up until 50,000 years ago. That puts them in the same area as homo sapiens for at least 75000 years. That leaves plenty of time for a neanderthal male to get lucky.
