I’m much more concerned about Palestinians being targeted since they’ve already been the victims of AI weapons attacking civilians. Imagine if people with Palestinian/semitic DNA were leaked?

Palestinians do not have distinctive DNA that sets them apart from other populations in the Middle East. I'm not aware of movements that target levantine ancestry in general.
Zionism absolutely targets those with Levantine ancestry. They’ve killed far more people than whoever the op was talking about. Ashkenazis are under no threat.
I think that the sort of people who would snatch up a DNA database to put people on a list would be willing to accept some collateral damage.
