(Berkeley, Los Angeles, and London: The University of California Press, 2000)

#Khazar Myth is a perfect case for the historical reasoning I teach in my classes: historical, archeological, genetic evidence decisively refute it. interpretation is subjective, and we achieve only provisional answers, yet we are able to distinguish stronger from weaker answers

That the anti-#Zionist #Palestine movement has resurrected the #Khazar Myth is thus cause for concern:

1) it's historical falsification
2) denying the other party's history and identity is not a path to peace

It is legion now among the loony left

Equally unfortunately, anti-#Zionist #Arabs briefly adopted the #Khazar thesis in the debates on #Palestine Partition, learning too late that they had been duped by a self-hating #Jewish apostate nutjob. Few know this backstory. It then essentially disappeared for several decades

all text Huckabee tweet

Mike Huckabee @USAmbIsrael is slightly in error when he ascribes the #Khazar Myth to the likes of David Duke & KKK. Clearly, the thesis that Jews are not Jews poses a problem for classic Aryan racists. Duke grappled with this, but Huckabee is of course correct in the essentials

tweet suggesting Khazar Jews launched the Russian Revolution because Russia destroyed the Khazar khaganate. This MAGA account has over 100,000 followers

Unfortunately the #Khazar hypothesis was grist for the mills of C20 racial theorists & then became the property of the racist far right, whose conspiracist theories claimed the converts' adoption of "Talmudic" (=normative) Judaism led to Bolshevism & all the evils that followed

The #Khazar hypothesis began as a legitimate C19-20 attempt to explain the fate of the #Khazar #Jews, the demographic miracle whereby the Ashkenazim dramatically surpassed the Sephardim as the largest #Jewish population, & the evident physical differences between these two groups

The #Khazar Khaganate was real: it's in every serious historical atlas & #medieval history. The 8th-9th-century conversion to Judaism is less often mentioned: a gradual process neither confined to the ruling house nor embracing the entire population--a unique historical episode

A red-letter day (week?) for my research

Right-wing nutjobs out in force propagating the #Khazar Myth: European #Jews said descended from medieval Turks rather than ancient Israelites

Candace Owens has advanced to this level of bigotry, & Tucker Carson will not be left behind!

The #ArabCaliphate and Turkic #KhazarKhaganate fought a decades-long war for supremacy in the #Caucasus & western #EurasianSteppe. On #ThisDayInHistory in 730, a #Khazar army annihilated forces of al-Jarrah at #Ardabil, killing up to 20,000. They were pushed back at Mosul in 731.
