Oups, repetition! Too old... Sorry
“If anyone can refute me—show me I’m making a mistake or looking at things from the wrong perspective—I’ll gladly change. It’s the truth I’m after, and the truth never harmed anyone. What harms us is to persist in self-deceit and ignorance.” – Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, Book VI, 21

Jon (Leibowitz) Stewart may also be R1b as well.
Slight but noticeable resemblance to Bolsonaro. With that in mind, I could see him fitting in Iberia.
Most specific Ydna: R-Z44>CTS8949
Yes, Bolsonaro, a lame duck in Brazilian style
An old pic of him at the hospital waiting for a surgery that does not occurred.
PS - About Bolsonaro genealogy in the Portuguese Wikipedia:
“Bolsonaro is descended from Italian and German immigrants, probably with more remote Portuguese origins as well. On his mother's side, Bolsonaro has complete Italian ancestry, and his grandparents were born in the city of Luca, in Tuscany. On his father's side, he is the great-grandson of Italians from Veneto and Calabria, and also has a great-grandfather from Hamburg, Germany. The original spelling of the surname was Bolzonaro. According to a statement by Jair Bolsonaro himself, his great-grandfather was German and was a soldier in Adolf Hitler's Wehrmacht during World War II: "He had no option: either he was a soldier, or he was to the wall to be shot” he declared. However, according to the genealogy presented, Carl Hintze, Bolsonaro's great-grandfather, was born in Germany around 1876 and arrived in Brazil as a child in 1883, five decades before the start of the Second War in Europe. So, he was 54 years old when Hitler arrived. to power, and 69 years old at the end of World War II, without any evidence that he left Brazil during this period. His German great-grandfather died in in the city of Campinas on March 16, 1969”.
Thanks, Duarte.
So, basically Italian in terms of ancestry. I would have known in an instant he was of an Italian ancestry
Couldn't deny this face even if I wanted to.
One of our Ligurian politicians:
Lots of these types in Italy.
Giuseppe Conte
In fact, it's as if we've had mostly Alpine Prime Ministers:
Berlusconi:
Matteo Renzi:
French ones don't look much different:
Look up the Austrian Tyrol; they're all over the place. The one on the left I would have guessed Italian.

Another one came to mind, this one from the south. He was one of my mother's favorite singers.
Perry Como: He was the King of Christmas for a long time, like Michael Buble today, and also just completely wholesome, devout, a wonderful family man.
Ben Shapiro posted in 2018 that 23andme placed him as 100% Ashkenazi Jewish. :)

Ben Shapiro must have a rare subclade. :)

There is a big number Fertile Crescent people, as well as Saudi Arabia and Yemen.
This article specifies well Bolsonaro's ancestry:
"Taddone reveals the genealogy of Bolsonaro: 13 out of 16 2nd great-grandparents of the candidate are Italians from Tuscany, Veneto and Calabria"
https://www.insieme.com.br/pb/taddone-revela-genealogia-de-bolsonaro/
More specifically, 1/2 Tuscan , 1/4 Venetian, 1/8 Hamburger, 1/16 Calabrian and 1/16 Brazilian.
His maternal grandparents were both from Lucca. The father of his paternal grandfather, Bolzonaro, was from Anguillara Veneta-PD; the mother was from Masi-PD.
Wow. Rixi does look like Bolsonaro.

He does look a lot different from say these Yemenite Jews, who are probably genetically the closest to the original Jews (i.e. more Natufian-admixed):
Naturally, that is expected, considering European Jews have a lot of Southern European DNA since they arrived as diaspora.
In case anyone wants to mention my image... yes, I do trim them. I have to.
