Kurds have a new relative? My grandpa is a Kurdish historian and he says that a lot of Druze are Kurds by origin.

He says that their homeland is the Golan heights which in Kurdish means gul (flower) heights (mountains) and around their time 11 century ad this was kurdish land, as you should the people that live in the mountains in the Middle East are not Arabs and are almost always kurdish.

Their leader walid jumblat his last name meaning (jan-body and polat-steel) steel bodied is in fact Kurdish and he says this himself. The jumblatts,altrash, imad, arslan and ayyubids are all Kurdish families in Lebanon.

They were shirwal which is almost identical to our kapatol ( baggy pants ) only Kurds wear these.

Is their any evidence that you guys may want to share? Is their any other minorities in the Middle East related to Kurds? I know Jews are because Abraham was born in north Kurdistan.


They have obviously mixed with arabs and apparently persian which i highly doubt. So are they Kurds that have been arabized and assimilated into Arab society?

Janpolads were alewite kurds (similar to druze religion) and are relative to Efrin kurds, hanafi kurds and alewite kurds. In ottoman times, they joined with yarsan kurds and made uprising. They conquered Cilicia, west kurdistan and the syrian coast.

Maybe they came from North east kurdistan, from the safavid parts of kurdistan. they share accent similarity with persian and khorasani kurmanji.

I now realise how kurdish Golan really sounds The people living there may be brainwashed kurds, since arabs have managed to arabify entire ethnic groups.

Yes their origin are kurds. Last year, Jumblat visited Kurdistan and he said hes proud of his kurdish origin.

Kurdish Janpoulad (meaning "steel-bodied").

I have Druze friends and they claim that every country has Druze, don't forget you have to be born into it similar to yarsan and alawis

It's also amazing as to how zazas speak a language very close to hawrami
