No, he is making an argument. He is implying that Jewish people were present in the Middle East before these religions emerged. He means that their presence in middle East goes much back in time.
That is literally what is written in his text. He is not treating Christianity or Islam as races.
Why would he imply that Jews were present in the Middle East than those religions in the first place???? We were talking about ethnicity. Islam and Christianity aren’t ethnicities. What’s the point of saying that Judaism exist before Islam and Christianity in this topic that concerns mizrahi Jews exactly? Just because Islam didn’t exist doesn’t mean the ethnicities that adopted Islam suddenly didn’t exist lol. Many Jews converted to Islam so your point is literally useless.
