The primary findings of the genome study: Iranian Persians and Kurds exhibit high in-group genetic variation which is larger than that of Germans in Western Europe. However, the entire gene pool has remained largely unchanged over the past 10,000 years.
Tuscans (TSI) share a substantial proportion of ancestry with Iranians, particularly those from the CIC. Explicit modeling of 0–15 migration events clearly shows the robustness of the close clustering of all Iranian groups, with Europeans always closest to the major Iranian groups (Persian, Kurd, and Azerbaijani).
Depending on the cartographer Iran borders Europe. If these people hadn't run into an Islamic buzzsaw 1400 years ago they'd probably be considered similar to Greeks, Sicilians, or certainly Armenians. Sardinians or Maltese may be more Semitic.
I think Hitler was more on the usual kick that they've been mongrelized. The genetic data doesn't really support that though.
Needs to be noted that Iran borders Pakistan though, and there is some overlap. The Baloch themselves though are an Iranic people. Most of them live in Pakistan.
