Is this the AMD thread ?

Please take it to the coffee room.
All we need is for every SI thread to have 95% OT posts.

let's buy khazar theory, I do not care just as long I would not hear that I have less rights to Israel.

I am though curious about the two things:
1) Yiddish been of German origin rather than russian. Would it be simpler to continue with the language that would be similar to local population rather than forcing unknown Germans. It would also cost fortune to invite all those German Language tutors...
2) the article that I posted about genetic test showed the least similarity between Ashkenazi and Russians. You know that that contradicts Khazars' theory. It is also interesting about kazaks (cossacs) that are sharing genetic traits and military tactics of people of Khazar region. More than that Khazak's history conversion of Khazars into Christianity in 10th century.
Kazaks indeed migrated north and formed "stanizi", which are villages where everyone was trained according to traditional tactics, all the way to Ural mountains. Tactic was a light cavalry unit attacking and dispercing on any resistance, reassembling and attacking again. That is similar to tactics of the southern Volga region (Khazaria). Even swords were were bent like in Khazaria rather than straight Russian style.
