Appreciate your excellent post, David. Emile has been propagating the Koestler theory for years now. I checked out Koesler's book from the library and two things struck me.
One- Koester had been a member of the communist party.
Two- He himself said this was a theory .
The NY Times Emile quoted from said it was a controversial theory.
And
the controversy continues.

Excellent reply to Mr. Vidrine. Another NY Times article relevant to the issue appeared on August 22, 1997. The story reported on genetic research on familial Mediterranean fever by two teams of scientists and the implications on ancestral relationships of Ashkenazic and Sephardic Jews, Arabs, Armenians, and Anatolian Turks.

An excellent link on this subject which references numerous journal articles and books is:
