Ashkenazi Jews are literally just Jews that left Judea and went to Rome around first century AD and bred with Italian women.
Dunno what people think is so interesting about Khazaria which had like a handful of the aristocrat class convert to Judaism. It doesn't change their origin. The genetics are pretty clear that Ashkenazis are Roman Jews. Their DNA profile is practically indistinguishable from an average Sicilian.
Ashkenazi Jews obviously have a genetic link back to the old Canaanites, although its only like 20-30% of their DNA at this point through interbreeding over the past few thousand years. Remarkable incest in that community to keep as much of their kikeness as they have.
