>there is genetic continuity in the Levant
When? In what sense does that claim make sense?
More importantly, how does claiming continuity help you when they have significant West Eurasian gene input? They are continuous with their West Eurasian ancestry from the north?
Continuity is a fable anyway. There were migrations of people from the Caucasus, Anatolian, and Iran.

I'll post a few pictures. I bet you didn't even know there was a steppe signal in the Levant. The earlier gene flow from the Caucasus and Iran implies ANE admixture too. Caucasus and Iran admix hides ANE.
