There is such a thing as Italian Jews. They can be hard to place for a lot of people (not me). Telling the difference between a roman nose and the classic Jew hook nose can be tricky. The lines were blurred over the centuries as the Italian gene pool became corrupted with the blood of Moors (spooks), Jews and others. Examples of Italian Jew surnames include Rossi, Asti, Urbino and Tedeschi. Shy Love is half Sicilian Jew.
