Joseph Reinach, a French Jewish member of parliament who was opposed to Zionism, dismissed the idea, arguing that Jews descended from Israelites were a tiny minority. In his view, conversion had played a major role in the expansion of the Jewish people, and, in addition, he claimed, the majority of "Russian, Polish and Galician Jews descend from the Khazars, a Turkish people. who converted to Judaism en masse at the time of Charlemagne.

The Thirteenth Tribe is a 1976 book by Arthur Koestler, in which the author advances the thesis that Ashkenazi Jews are not descended from the historical Israelites of antiquity, but from Khazars, a Turkish people.
-
Most Ashkenazi Jews are Kazarian converts. This means they have nothing to do with the Israelites of the bible and therefore zero claim to any promised land.
-
Ben Shapiro won’t like this lol😂
-
These nomads would convert into any religion that they think it would be beneficial. The same group converted to Islam in a short period of time.
-
Love how you just glossed over the kazar role in the slave trade, the ACTUAL reason why they were attacked by the Rus...
-
The Khazars converted to Judaism because they were sandwiched between the Muslims and the Christians. They were pressured from both sides for an alliance and conversion. If they would have converted to either of those religions, they would have been subject to attack from the other side. They shrewdly converted to Judaism so they would not offend either side. Judaism was the most politically expedient religion to convert to.

This is where Blinken and Victoria Nuland comes from. They ain't semites.
-
The Kazarians were also called the serpent People
-
SO educational, intellectually enriching. The kind video I enjoy watching
-
Interestingly Turkey was the first Muslim country to recognize Israel and the founder of Israel, David Ben Gurion spoke Turkish and was pro-Ottoman earlier in his life.
-
Great video!
-
Usually history videos break my immersion out of utter dry deliverance. However, your use of music, pacing, and particular way of getting to the point, is very engaging!
-
Thank you for an excellent presentation.
-
very interesting and good narration, nice video
-
Key is "they converted to Judaism" .. which means they are not Israelites as they claim?
-
Superb video sir. You have a new subscriber.
-
Love getting the notification that you’ve posted! 😄 keep it up with the obscure topics haha
-
Thank you for your detailed presentation on this topic. Having received a parochial education in the USA during the 1960s (graduated high school May 1970) the material you provide cover significant events in world history that, for the most part, were superficially covered, if at all. I look forward to continuing my education, expanding my knowledge. Looking at the other titles by The Histories clearly have a great deal of work ahead.

Why is it antisemitic to doubt the true semitism of a group which uses exactly this decendence as an intrinsic part in their argument for claims of landownership? Not that I personaly would accept this reasoning if it were true as a justification for such a claim, but even apart from that, it simply seems to be a pure logical slip in the argument of themself, to say the least - I dont think it takes much antisemitism to point that out!
