Albert,

Ashkenazi are with Khazar's blood mixed in. Ashkenazi are very much "semitic" people.

You made my point. Khazar's historical ties to Israel are mainly spiritual, not by blood (being a descendents of Jews who left or were forced out of Israel).

As to what percentage of blood of an individual Ashkenazi Jew is that of semitic people vs. Khazar may range from 100% to 0%. Since my assumption is that sephari Jews are 100% (or close to that) descendents of Israeli Jews, their claim to the land of Israel is stronger that of Ashkenazi Jews.

Joe

Get at least a hint of a clue before trying to post your arguments


Albert, first off, fukk you!!

Secondly, by definition according to Merriam Webster's online, the Ashkenazi Jew is one of the two main branches of European Jewry, the other being the Sephardic Jew. [I had thought Sephardic and Ashkenazi were interchangeable but maybe not].

The Semites were from Southwestern Asia and also from Northern Africa. They tend to have darker skin and more Arabic features if you will than the Ashkenazi/Sephardic Jews.

Do you disagree? If so, I would be curious to hear your explanation?
