Did you read the actual book? Because Shlomo Sand’s whole point of the book is that these Jews are descendants of CONVERTS established well after the destruction of the temple and exile.

Paul Wexler wrote two good books on the topic as well:
The Ashkenazic Jews: A Slavo-Turkic People in Search of a Jewish Identity

The Non-Jewish Origins of the Sephardic Jews

Behar et al. (2013): "No Evidence from Genome-Wide Data of a Khazar Origin for the Ashkenazi Jews"
This comprehensive study analyzed 1,774 individuals across 106 Jewish and non‑Jewish populations, including samples from Europe, the Middle East, and the Caucasus (historically associated with Khazaria). The results showed that Ashkenazi Jews share strongest genetic ancestry with other Jewish communities, as well as with European and Levantine groups—not Caucasus or Turkic populations.

oh, well yeah, the khazar thing always seemed like some weird one off seized on by anti-semites, tho at least it does seem the khazar ruling class converted to differentiate themselves from islamicizing bulgars. i was more saying there is admixture with european groups. the reason i was thinking about blue eyes because david reich published something not too long ago saying blue eyes were from the indigenous europeans before the indo-european expansion and admixture. i skimmed a it a while ago, so my memory of it is probably not accurate.

That is ironic considering that the zionist Jews carried out antisemitic terrorist attacks against non-zionist Jews in Arab nations to force their migration to Palestine.

It is an obscene lie for you to call that illegal settlement formed by a self-admitted atheist as "Israel" as in the Israel of the holy scripture.

It is a horrible lie. The God believing Hebrews of the Scripture from which zionists have stolen holy names like Israel and Zion were ruled over by divinely appointed rulers.

You can fool world leaders into thinking that is undenianably atheist project is the Israel of the Scripture, you can even fool them into thinking it is a legitimate state, but you can't fool everyone.

You seriously think that is Israel?

A secular settlement founded by godless philosophers from Europe?

The same Israel as King David and King Solomon? Complete and utter delusion.

Then you complain that Palestinian Muslims and Christian, yes Christians which zionists have mostly ethnically cleansed by now, are "intolerant" for not tolerating a forced displacement of 750,000 people and literal genocide.

It was Christians, Christians, who led the initial resistance against the Nakba. The Christians of Bethlehem, where Christ was born. The Christ we Muslims accept.

You call that Israel? What a horrible and unholy lie. A blasphemy against the Scripture. In poverty, in oppression, the Truth is still on our side against zionism. That is why you put so much energy into censorship and murder of journalist, as you can't sustain the zionist project without lies and suppression of the truth.

As for the Torah? It is perfect. It has nothing to do with the zionist project, those people rejected God and the Torah. A great deal of God believing Hebrews by Herzl's own admission reject the zionist project. May God bless them, they reject many wordly rewards for rejecting zionism.

And if you can't fool them, then bribery, threats, and blackmail. There is no moral limit for a godless person motivated to do anything for the zionist project.

Here is the demonic combination of godless immorality and unchecked desire for power. Jews of the Torah should have nothing to do with this evil.

>That is why you put so much energy into censorship and murder of journalists, as you can't sustain the zionist project without lies and suppression of the truth.

Even this defense of zionism depends on dishonest rhetoric. It overlooks decades of systemic genocide. Yet you have made dishonesty, lying, into your virtue. You can't have an actual discussion with someone who views lying as a virtue.

>By Way of Deception, Thou Shalt Do War

This motto is even a mistranslation in itself, a stark lie.

Here is the actual Scripture:

כי בתחבלות תעשה לך מלחמה ותשועה ברב יועץ

For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellers there is safety.

Wise counsel, not deception. Look at how Satan has misled so many.

Communism, zionism, the cursed Talmud. You don't need these things at all.

You take a bunch of largely irrelevant Levantines, have them conquered by Greeks who introduce them to intellectual culture, and then have the Greeks ask the Levantines to produce an ethnohistory of themselves, who then proceed to mine the Library of Alexandria for source-material, thereby inventing themselves.

A place called Israel exists at about 1000BC. It was a small. polytheistic Semite kingdom. We only know about it because it is referenced in victory monuments/records of its conquerors. That's what the archaeology says. There were no Jews in it because they wouldn't exist for about another 500 years-- or perhaps over a thousand depending on how you look at it. DNA testing shows that Ashkenazi Jews all descend from a small group living in southern Italy in the first or second century. Biblical History at least up until the Maccabees is an historical fiction composed in Ptolemaic Alexandria, using the rules for creating an ethne in Plato's Laws, mostly with records collected in the Library by Egyptians and Greeks, and lots of imagination fueled by Greek literature which they were relatively newly literate in..

I have no interest in the Khazar stuff. Maybe there's something to it, but it sounds like Christian Identity cope to me. Yeah the small group in Italy was "Jews", I guess.

They "reconstructed" it in Europe when Europe was going through it's romantic phase and kept trying to "reconstruct" the past. If a group of European started speaking reconstructed Latin and claiming it as their native language which gives them a historical claim to Rome that's racist to doubt, that group would and should be ridiculed and marginalized. They're delusional scammers.

This book exposes how fragile and vulnerable is the state of Israel, mainly because it is relying on biblical myths to construct Zionist ideology and Jewish identity, rather than on actual history proven by archeological and biological research.

>>native language which gives them a historical claim to Rome

turning a once spoken but now liturgical language of a ethnic group back into their modern spoken language does in fact give them greater claim, to the land where they and the language originated from as it relies on their continuation into the present.

They dig up the land and read what their ancestors wrote thousands of years ago. A continuation.

the fundamental misunderstanding here is gauging the legitimacy of national language on it's historical form in this use case where the modern form is deliberately codified as being in fact modern and an expression of the new nation-ethno-religious state adopted as official and cultural purposes. as they've done.

What would make it authentic to you? What is your criteria then?

The premise is as long as the present language can read/understand the ancient past, that is legitimacy as heritage.

The day English speaker's can no longer understand Shakespeare's without taking a class, is when the line is broken.

I don't even know why they bother. Zionism started as a secular project and rabbis only got on board at the last minute when the first war was already happening. Many only rallied after it was won. Those arguments are completely goofy anyway.
Israel should just say it was conquest that has been internationally recognised. In fact this is what the Israeli state says to most of the world, the rest of the propaganda is for americano-protestants and internal morale boosting among orthojews.

Some retard was using the language as evidence that jews aren't frauds. Now you're using the conclusion he was arguing for as a premise for why I should accept the argument. You can't even pretend to think, something about jews and jew dicksuckers makes them completely incapable of sincerity or honesty and therefore thinking.
Black Israelites and British Israelites both have much more convincing claims to ancient Hebrew heritage. Everything about jewish identity is like a bad joke.

Your dislike of Jews is clouding your judgement to a reasonable argument,

if Norwegians kept using Elder Futhark runes instead of the Latin alphabet and could all read their stones, they'd be closer to Vikings than larpers.

"Hebrews" themselves are an historical fiction. The story of them in the Bible did not happen. The Habiru are not records of the Hebrews-- Hebrews are a late fiction that used Egyptian records of the Habiru as a source-text. These first Jews as we would understand them when inventing themselves pulled the old HaShem Switcheroo on the ruling Greeks of Alexandria and it worked.

Imagine some basically insignificant group with little to no ancient records of their own, mining ancient texts someone else had collected for news of themselves from the past, reading about a people from their region of the world. They find something that sort of fits and say "that was us" and then spin a "history" out of it. That's what the Jews did. The idea that Jews are an invention, even a self-invention, is basically correct. It didn't happen in Khazaria, it happened at the start, in Ptolomaic Alexandria.

Linguistically, Hebrew is Old Phonecian but written with an Assyrian square script. It's a post hoc construct, built after the fact to support and enhance a fiction, like Elvish. It makes it seem more real, and we can even speak the language-- but Elves didn't really exist either.
