Another genetic distance map:   http://img462.imageshack.us/img462/6530/chart83xf.png Berbers cluster with Whites. They are way more close to Whites than to Blacks, actually if you look at the chart Blacks are away from everybody else, maybe they should be a different species. :rolleyes:     According to this article over a million whites were enslaved by north Africans:  New book reopens old arguments about slave raids on EuropeUS scholar claims more than 1m people were captured by African piratesRory Carroll, Africa correspondent The Guardian, Thursday March 11 2004  Article history North African pirates abducted and enslaved more than 1 million Europeans between 1530 and 1780 in a series of raids which depopulated coastal towns from Sicily to Cornwall, according to new research.  Thousands of white Christians were seized every year to work as galley slaves, labourers and concubines for Muslim overlords in what is today Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria and Libya, it is claimed.   Scholars have long known of the slave raids on Europe. But American historian Robert Davis has calculated that the total number captured - although small compared with the 12 million Africans shipped to the Americas in later years - was far higher than previously recognised.   His new book, Christian Slaves, Muslim Masters: White Slavery in the Mediterranean, the Barbary Coast, and Italy, 1500-1800, concluded that 1 million to 1.25 million ended up in bondage.   Prof Davis's unorthodox methodology split historians over whether his estimates were plausible but they welcomed any attempt to fill a gap in the little-known story of Africans subjugating Europeans....   That means that we also get REPARATIONS???!!! :D
