So I referred to Deepseek which I find more reliable than ChatGPT as it is better at weeding out bias and urban myths. And it says

‘ There is no historical evidence that Saint George was Black or of Palestinian descent in the modern sense. He was likely born in Cappadocia (in modern-day Turkey) around the 3rd century to Christian Greek parents. While he served as a soldier in the Roman army in the region of Syria Palaestina—and may have died there—that does not make him Palestinian by ethnicity, as the modern Palestinian national identity did not exist then. Iconography traditionally depicts him as a Roman soldier of Anatolian or Greek background. The claim of Black or Palestinian heritage is not supported by early sources.’

Stop being so desperate
