Get yourself a Math tutor ASAP. While you’re at it, get a reading tutor as well.
The article clearly states that 20% of modern Spaniards carry genetic markers showing Jewish ancestry.
Even taking into account conversion,, most of the Jewish population was expelled from Spain in 1492.
Using some kind of new, fake anti-Sarko math?

You know neither statistics, biology or history so stop your petulant rant. Spain was never ever 10% Jewish under Roman, Vandal, or Muslim control. However, before Jews came to Iberia, it was home to thousands of Canaanites for hundreds of years. Much of southern Spain was a colony of Carthage and before Phoenician colonies. (Carthage was essentially the second Phoenician empire.) If you read the actual study The Genetic Legacy of Religious Diversity and Intolerance: Paternal Lineages of Christians, Jews, and Muslims in the Iberian Peninsula, the influence of Phoenicians is discussed.

5% of the population can, over time, leave a much larger footprint. However, my Phoenician point remains.
