>I read the pages that I linked, and posted some excerpts from them. I obviously have not done any genetic studies, but the idea that many of the Russian, Ukrainian, Lithanian and Polish Jews are descendant of Europeans, not original biblical Jews (who like arabs have darker skin) seems intuitive, since that's what I can observe with my own eyes, when I ask my Jewish friends where they are from.

Do remember that those Eastern European Jews had been there for at least 1900 years. Naturally, they'll have lighter skin than ones spending the entire time in the Middle East.

interesting, I confess that my simitic features are not very obvious but my brother looks more middle-eastern than any middle-eastern. So what does it tell you?

And, on top of that, do not forget that purity of blood (race) is not required in judaism. I am not religious but I know that much. Those experts do not know a Sh!t and you waste your time reading them.

re: Apparently the author is a Hungarian Jew, and he claims that most Hungarian Jews are descendants of Khazars.

like I said, there were jews who called hittler an angel. Think, Khazars ere very noble and tolerant people, so even if you care about blood lines, you can not be more proud to be descendant of Khazers. Then what is the purpose of the book that contradict common sense that is Yidish, obvious semitic feature, even if, on average, they are less pronounced than in arabs? What is the deal?
The two main things are:
1) right to Israel
2) excuses for wwii
there is no other legit reason and even if the book cost close to nothing, I, personally, do not want to contribute to neither 1) nor 2) by buying oe reading it.
