Yeah I don't get it. Everyone knows Jesus was jewish. Or is this a sect that believes he isn't? Or is he saying he's a "real" jew and those that call themselves jews are not?
It can be argued, and has been for a while, that Jesus was an Israelite (Hebrew) and not a Jew. While I'm no Biblical scholar, it sounds like a legitimate argument; especially given that Jesus was Galilean and not Judean.

First, was Jesus a Jew as far as his religion was concerned? No, his religion was Hebrewism; or, as we now call it, the Religion of the Old Testament. That religion was the religion of the Hebrews and the Israelites, and was based on the Law of Moses and the teachings of the prophets.
...
Jesus criticized the Jews, or Pharisees, for establishing Judaism which is based on the Talmud, and which at the time of Jesus was still called the Tradition of the Elders. When the people returned from Babylon, about 538 B.C., after the Babylonian Captivity, they brought back a different religion than the one practiced just fifty years earlier. The new religion was the Tradition of the Elders (or Judaism), and that religion was based on the teachings of the rabbis rather than the laws of God.
...
Second, was Jesus a Jew by ancestry? Jews were not Israelites as they were not descended from Jacob. They were descended from Esau, the brother of Jacob. While both were grandsons of Abraham and sons of Isaac, Jacob was favored by God. Esau’s descendants were called Edomites, and later they were called Jews since many of them were then living in Judea because the Edomites had been captured by John Hyrcanus and forced to convert to the religion then in place in Judea.
May you link to what you snipped from? I'm really interested in reading the article. Thanks for posting that.
Thought I linked a source at the bottom... just in case and for ease of access, here you go:

TLDR;
jesus was not jewish, but he was hebrew. semites are everyone descended from shem: hebrews, assyrians, babalonyians and persians. eber was shem's son, all hebrews are descended from eber. abraham is eber's son. isreal is abraham's grandson. judah and joseph were isreals sons. jews are descended from judah. judah was an evil villian who betrayed his brother joseph so he was rejected by isreal. joseph's sons were adopted by israel their descendant's were the isrealites and they are the only ones with the claim of being the chosen people. the kingdom of israel is was the northern part of modern isreal, the kingdom of judea was the southern part of modern isreal.
the isrealites, known for their fair hair were conquered a while later and most of them fled to their trade posts in europe and north africa where they integrated with the populations and spread their faith - christianity. the judeans, who rejected christianity and, as such, are cursed by god are now known as jews.
so anyone who "knows" jesus is jewish is a retard
I've heard people claim that the ancient Jews of Jesus' time were actually white Europeans who are the REAL Jews and that modern Jews are usurpers.
Modern jews ARE usurpers, mongrelized turks. Original jews weren't white though.
Original Turks were white ..it wasnt until the arabs (mongrels) Grouped up and acted as a 1,000 year old rape tribe did the entire middle east become golemized
