New legacy: Genghis Khan's bloody conquests scrubbed 700million tons of carbon from the atmosphere as depopulated land returned to forest

HONORING THE GREATEST KILLER OF WHITES IN HISTORY
By Mike King


Can you see the double standard here? What ever happened to all that tommy-rot about "never again" and "we must never forget"?
Before we continue, a crash course on Genghis Khan and his immediate successors is in order here. As you read this excerpt, keep in mind that the people who suffered at the hands of Khan were real people - our Indo-European ancestors - whose DNA we still carry. Visualize, if you can, the unimaginable terror that these gentle people must have felt as the mounted Mongol beasts rode into their villages and cities - torching their homes, exterminating the men, children and elderly; while riding off with the prettiest fair maidens.

In England, the herring business had all but collapsed when buyers from the Baltic just never showed up. Why? It seemed that there suddenly were fewer people left in the Slavic lands to buy the catch–wiped out, some reported, by hideous horsemen appearing like a whirlwind from the east.
People with dogs’ heads? Well, maybe not that, but they certainly behaved like wild dogs. They usually left nothing alive, and in any case the stench of corpses made whole cities uninhabitable. Resistance seemed useless. The princes of the Slavic people, then known as the Rus (Russians), reportedly had assembled the greatest army in their history, but in a single battle these hard-riding devils wiped it out.

Kill - Rape - Plunder - Enslave
Beyond them and beyond the lands east of Persia, they left the storied cities of Samarkand and Bukhara in charred ruin. According to the works of the Iranian historian Rashid al-Din  the Mongols killed more than 700,000 people in Merv and 1,000,000 in Nishapur. No one knew where they might strike next, and they claimed that their destiny was to rule the whole world.
In conquering Asia, the Mongols murdered untold millions–a catastrophe of a magnitude never before experienced. These disasters are attributable to the evil genius of a single man, the tyrant Genghis Khan, who rejoiced in slaughter and commanded the killing of innocent men, women, and children as his mounted minions raped, pillaged, and plundered wherever they went. For centuries Genghis Khan would stand infamous as history’s most ruthless practitioner of genocide. 

These Mongols were Asiatic, not Caucasian. They were also, as those in their path were about to discover to their grief, the world’s finest cavalry soldiers and by far the most brutal. By age twenty-eight, through an alliance with neighboring Turks, Khan had subjugated all the Mongol tribes. Then he turned on his Turkish allies, killed their leader, and subjugated them, too. He built loyalty through rewards of slaves and booty, plus endless promise of new horizons. In 1206 he declared himself supreme Khan (King).
Genghis ruled by imposing heavy tax revenues, troops on demand, and utter obedience to his laws. He once declared that “the greatest pleasure is to vanquish your enemies and chase them before you, to rob them of their wealth and to see those dear to them bathed in tears, to ride their horses, and clasp to your bosom their wives and daughters.”

Kill the men - Steal the White women. What a guy!  

In one battle against Muslims, Khan's hordes descended on a city and hacked to pieces every man, woman, and child there. All except the governor, that is. He died in slow agony as molten silver was dripped into his eyes and ears.  Mongol armies then converged on the great trading city of Samarkand. After Genghis’s horsemen annihilated 50,000 foot soldiers. The defending cavalrymen tried to switch sides, which left the city undefended. The citizens surrendered, and the Mongols took 100,000 of them as slaves. They then executed 30,000 prisoners. 

Meanwhile, there was more horrifying news. Bukhara, 100 miles northwest, had fallen to a Mongol army commanded by Genghis himself. He had surprised the city, hacked its fleeing garrison to pieces, and burned the place to the ground. 

Genghis  then headed west, burning crops, razing  cities, and slaughtering every human he encountered. He then dispatched 20,000 men on a mission to scout the rich lands to the west beyond the Caspian Sea. When confronted by a large force of Georgians, the Mongols fled with the Georgians pursuing them until their horses were exhausted – at which point the Mongols returned, mounted on the fresh steeds they had waiting for them, and massacred the entire Georgian army. 

Riding out of the Caucasus, the Mongols tore a path westward. By 1222, their scouting army reached Hungary. They then lured an 80,000 strong Slavic force into a 250-mile chase. Then, at the river Kalka, the invaders suddenly turned, confronted the Slavs, and annihilated them. Slavic contingents coming up from behind were wiped out by Mongol archers hidden in clouds of dark smoke, making the battleground a black nightmare of slaughter.

By the time the prince of Kiev arrived with his army, half the original force of 80,000 lay dead. The horrified Kievans turned to flee but were butchered in their entirety. The prince was suffocated to death beneath the table on which the triumphant Mongols ate their victory banquet.

Mongols had no honor when it came to prisoners-of-war.

To Europeans, it did indeed seem that these heathen warriors would enslave every nation. Who could stop them? At the heart of their capability were the  tribesmen themselves, toughened and disciplined from birth. They could ride for days without food or water. If necessary, they drank blood drawn from their horses’ leg veins. 

The Mongols could outrace any foe. Their favorite tactic was to feign withdrawal, drawing the enemy past hidden flanks, then crush him from front and back. They created smoke and floods and by 1300 were using gunpowder cannons, incendiary grenades, and flaming bamboo rockets. All this was now directed toward the slaughter, enslavement, and subjugation of Europe. 

In 1236 Genghis’s grandson Batu, with an army 120,000 strong, set about finishing off the northernmost Islamic state, the Bulgar kingdom. In the summer of 1237 he overwhelmed the Bulgarian capital, Bulgar, exterminating its entire population of 50,000 and razing the place so completely that it was never rebuilt. 

The once-powerful state of Kiev, where more than 200 years ago Prince Vladimir had introduced Christianity, had disintegrated into quarreling provinces. The northern trading center of Novgorod  had declared independence and was growing rich. Princes fought perpetually with each other over succession and against the free citizens in the emerging cities.

Ryazan became the Mongols’ first target. Driving an outpost garrison back into the city, the invaders spent a week erecting a wooden palisade all around it to protect their archers and catapults. A three-day barrage of arrows and rocks followed, after which the attackers burst in with battering rams and began their slaughter.

Civilians were hacked to pieces with swords, pierced with arrows, flayed alive, impaled, drowned, or burned alive. The Mongols raped girls before murdering them and defiled nuns in churches while priests were forced to watch, and then were thrown into the fires. They torched the city but did allow a few people to run away and tell the rest of the Slavs what awaited them.

Kill - Rape - Plunder - Enslave 
Gentle Medieval White folks who looked like the ones depicted above were exterminated, raped or enslaved by the MILLIONS!

As the Mongols burned a bloody path northward, the Grand Duke of Suzdal traveled the country gathering armies to defend his capital of Vladimir. The Mongols destroyed his city before he got home, then confronted his army by the river Sit, surrounded it, and annihilated it. 

Now short of supplies, the invaders summered on the grassy plains west of the Don, where they received fresh herds of horses from Mongolia. Through the following winter, they annihilated or enslaved nomadic peoples as far south as the Crimea.

In autumn 1239 they went north and destroyed Chernigov. Then, they spent the winter on the Kipchak steppes but used the time to reconnoiter Kiev, still the largest and most magnificent city in all the Slavic territories.

In December 1240 they struck. Their army battered down the walls, then sliced its way through defenders atop the rubble. The carnage was merciless, and in a horrific conclusion, the weight of people crowding inside the cathedral collapsed its walls. All that remained of the once-splendid metropolis was a hideous pile of writhing and crushed humanity; six years later travelers found Kiev’s streets still filled with skulls and other bones. The Rus were close to being vanquished in a stroke.

The siege and slaughter of Russian Kiev

Editor's Note *
About this time, the Mongols made common cause with the Jews of Khazaria. Centuries earlier - before the Christian Rus warriors finally put the converted Khazar Hun Empire "out of business" - the Khazar Jews had conquered Hungary and Poland. (here) Israeli scholar Sophia Menache's 2008 paper, entitled: Tartars, Jews, Saracens and the Jewish-Mongol ‘Plot’ of 1241. (here)  explores this relationship.
The Jewish Khazar Empire was a Turko-Hun entity; and Turkics are the "cousins" of Mongols. Old Khazaria was indeed referred to as a "Khanate" (political entity ruled by a "Khan"). This is why derivatives of the word "Khan" (King) is a common Jewish surname -  Kagan, Kaganovich etc. That dispersed Khazars and Mongols would vindictively cooperate in exterminating and enslaving the White Christians of Slavic-Rus Europe is not surprising.

******* 

The Mongol army, like a hurricane gathering momentum, had grown bigger because of thousands of conscripts - (*surely including many Khazar Jews). Batu assigned 30,000 troops to hold the Rus while he led another 100,000 across an astounding 600-mile front. His target was Hungary, ruled by King Bela IV from Buda. 
 
Neighboring rulers ignored Bela's plight. Only after Batu annihilated Carpathian defenders did Hungary assemble an army. Bearing down on them through the mountain snows at an amazing 60 miles per day, the Mongols arrived at Vac, slaughtered everyone there, and set up camp.

Nevertheless, Bela's remaining army of 100,000 was still the largest in Europe, and when Batu failed to attack immediately, Bela grew confident. Then, Mongol reinforcements arrived from the south and he watched in amazement as the invading army began a slow departure. They were giving up, thought the king; they must be afraid or in trouble. And so, disastrously, he chased them.

At Mohi, about eighty miles east of Pest, the Mongols sprang their trap. Surrounding the Hungarians, they unleashed a barrage of firebombs and arrows. When a gap finally appeared in the encircling horde and the Hungarians raced through it to escape, they found themselves trapped in a gorge where archers annihilated 60,000 of them.

By then all Europe had been further frightened by news of more mayhem to the north, where the northern wing of the Mongol army had destroyed the Polish cities of Lublin and Zawichost, sacked Sandomierz, and plundered a monastery. 

In Krakow and Wroclaw terrified residents actually burned their own cities and fled. Finally, at Legnica the rampaging horsemen had met an army of 25,000 that included Templars, Teutonic Knights, the entire Polish aristocracy, and the full flower of northern chivalry. But even this assemblage was obliterated in short order.

Waves of panic now rippled all the way to the Atlantic. In cathedrals people prayed, “From the fury of the Tatars, O Lord, deliver us.”  The pope called for a crusade against the Mongols in Germany. Bela, in exile, sent money to build forts on the west side of the Danube. 

Months went by with no move from Batu. Then, on Christmas Day 1241, the Mongols exploded with fury against Buda and against Gran , 30 miles northwest. There they roasted citizens alive to make them reveal the locations of hidden treasure, before riding toward Vienna, about seventy miles away. The invasion of Austria had begun. Mongol troops were spotted as far away as Zagreb, east of the Adriatic. Panic also spread in Italy when some were spotted near Venice.

All Europe lay helpless before them. (By the way, In the far east, in centuries to come, the Mongols will inflict similar horror, genocide and cultural destruction upon Aryan India.) It would require the combined might of every army in Christendom to stop these horsemen, but such a unified force simply did not exist. Then, amazingly, the Mongols vanished. 

What the Europeans did not know was that Ogedei Khan (son of Genghis) had died of a sudden convulsion. His death had saved Europe, because Batu had to go to Karakorum, where the succession would be contested. However, the dread fear remained, of course; these ghastly marauders would surely return, spelling the doom of Christendom.

The death of Ogedei saved western Europe and caused internal dissension among the Mongols.

There were some who took a  different view of the Mongols, regarding them not as vanquishers of Christendom but as an instrument by which Christianity could actually overcome Islamic invasion. When Innocent IV became pope in 1243, his chief question about the Mongols was, could they be converted and used to fight the Muslims? Seeking answers, in 1245 he dispatched to them a diplomatic embassy led by a  Franciscan monk called John of Plano Carpini.  After a historic three-year adventure, his small party returned as heroes, the first Europeans to have visited the Far East. Unfortunately, the message he brought from Genghis Khan was a humiliating rebuff. Christendom had just two choices, the Mongols declared: submit or perish.

If the Mongols had had the chance, they would have destroyed Rome and Florence as they devastated Kiev and Baghdad, and there could never have been a Renaissance based on Christian culture.

The terror-filled population of Western Europe dreaded the final Mongol push - which, thankfully, never came. What would the world have been like if the Mongols had completed the dream of Genghis Khan?

By 1256 Hulagu had assembled a force of 100,000. His first objective was to destroy the independent sect called the Assassins in their mountain fortresses near the Caspian Sea . More than 100 Assassin castles crumbled over the next year, pounded by a thousand crews of Chinese catapult bombers. Every inhabitant, including women and children, was slaughtered

The Mongols rolled toward Baghdad, on the Tigris River, and drowned defending soldiers by the 1000's by breaking a dike. Bursting through Baghdad’s walls, they unleashed one of the bloodiest single-city massacres in human history. It began after remaining troops voluntarily disarmed, expecting to be conscripted, but instead were marched out of the city and butchered. Then, the Mongols killed 500,000 surrendering civilians.

The Mongols burned Baghdad, then had the Caliph sewn up in a carpet and trampled to death by horses. Muslim historians put the total killed as high as 2,000,000

In Russia, Alexander Nevsky was the first prince to become the Mongols’ servant. He knew that his people were too weak to expel the Mongols. Thus, he gave them the chance to survive by gaining the confidence of their overlords. About the mid-14th century the Russians would finally shake off the “Tatar-Mongol yoke.”

1- Much like Vladimir Putin during the early 2000's, Prince Alexander Nevsky bought time for Russia - paying the Mongols their taxes as Russia patiently waited for the Mongols to weaken internally.
2- The vast Mongol crime-Empire eventually shrank all the way back to what is modern day Mongolia.

****************
And that's all you need to know about the wonderful Mr. Khan and his culture-less, brutish bloodline-successors who came very close to annihilating Western Civilization. Had it not been for the tenacity of the Germans, Poles, Russians, and some internal dissension among the Mongols themselves, all of Europe would have been enslaved and racially cleansed (sort of like what is happening now). This then is the monster that the Jewish Supremacists are throwing in the White Man's face.

A New Jersey newspaper quotes the developer of the Khan exhibit, Don Lessem, who is Jewish. (1) Lessem's deceitful apologia for Khan is hard to stomach:

"We grew up thinking of him (Genghis Khan) as a barbarian," said Lessem, a Philadelphia native and dinosaur guru. "But in reality, we were the barbarians." (By "we", Lessem means White people. You know the trick!)
In the new traveling exhibit, "Genghis Khan: Bring the Legend to Life" —  at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia — the true story of this notorious conqueror is told. Fascinated by the genius of Khan, Lessem, the developer of the exhibit, wanted to "set the record straight.

"He brought the East and West together," Lessem said, adding that Khan was indeed a true visionary. 'Khan invented passports, paper money, he believed in freedom of religion and tax breaks for clerics. There are so many things that are a part of our everyday lives. We just don't realize it,' he said."

What a great guy that Genghis was, eh Lessem? That's easy for you to say because Khan and his successors, much like ISIS,  mass murdered the Aryans of Central Asia, India and Eastern Europe; and the White Christians, Persians and Muslims of the Middle East (and lots of Chinese too). You see, anyone who, genocided, raped and enslaved as many Aryans as Genghis Khan did is A-1 kosher-certified in Lessem's Talmudic book!

Lessem's role is central in putting together this ode to White Christian and Muslim genocide. But what about the Franklin Institute's top-brass? Well, as it turns out, Larry Dubinski, current president and CEO at Franklin is also Jewish. (2)
 http://media.philly.com/images/Lessem.JPG

1- Genghis-lover Don Lessem
2- Lessem, poses with another hater of all things White - Barack Obongo
3- Franklin Institute top dog - Dubinski.

As an historic figure of great significance, there ought to indeed be a Genghis Khan exhibit. But such an exhibit should graphically depict Khan and his mass-murdering, raping, plundering, torturing, enslaving, culture-wrecking Mongol hordes as genocidal monsters who terrorized our European ancestors - not as "misunderstood conquerers" who gave us "passports" and "tax breaks for clerics". Good God! This is so frickin' twisted and evil!
 
Any self-hating White libtard who shells out money to view this obscenity should have molten silver poured down his throat and into his eyes - Mongol style! How's that for being "misunderstood"?!

(ca. 40 minutes)

The Khazars were a powerful people who once ruled over portions of Russia and Eastern Europe. They (or at least many of their leaders), converted to Judaism and were eventually defeated and disappeared. Their descendants were either assimilated amongst the Jews or became Sabbath-keeping and other “divergent” Christians, many (if not most), of whom, migrated to the west and to North America. Other descendants of the Khazars may be scattered throughout the former area of the U.S.S.R. and in different parts of Europe. A knowledge of the Khazars is useful for several reasons. Evidence exists that the Khazars were descended from the Lost Tribes of Israel. There is also proof that they were related to peoples in Western Europe. It follows that evidence connecting the ancestors of some West European groups to Israel is strengthened when cognizance is taken of the Israelite ancestry of their Khazar brothers.
The Khazars and Anti-Semites
Juif Another reason for studying the Khazars is that anti-Semites, and some Assimilationist Jews, claim that the present-day "Ashkenazi" (European) Jewish people came from the Khazars, who they assume were non-Israelite. Anti-Semites use this notion of the Khazars to allege that the Jews are impostors and not true descendants of Israel. Some “Identity” groups also make this allegation. So do the Arabs and other anti-Semites. In the past some Assimilationist Jews used the Khazar idea to claim that since their ancestors were not in Judah at a certain time therefore they were not culpable for whatever the Jews may or may not have done to the Christian Messiah. The background for some of these ideas also concerns the Karaites of Russia.

The Khazars and Karaites
          The Khazars ruled over many peoples some of whom were also influenced by Hebraising tendencies. In Judaism at that time there were two main streams. There were Rabbinical Jews who parallel the Orthodox Jews of today and who believed in the Bible and in its interpretation according to Oral Tradition. The Oral tradition is justified by the Bible (Deuteronomy ch.17) that commands us (on pain of death) to obey the Sages when in doubt. The Orthodox in their decision were homogeneous (and still are), and consistent in their basic beliefs and practices. They usually managed to reach a consensus regarding the practical application of Biblical injunctions.  Another group were the Karaites who claimed to believe only in Scripture. The Karaites, however, were actually eclectic and widely divergent amongst themselves in their interpretation of Scripture. The Karaite movement in the modern sense may have begun in the region of present-day Iraq but its roots can be traced back to the Samaritans and to the Sadducees and to other sects of former times. Amongst the numerous groups subject to the Khazars were Tartars and Turkish elements and some of these accepted the Karaite form of religion. [IT SHOULD HOWEVER BE REMEMBERED THAT THE JEWISH KHAZARS WERE THEMSELVES ADHERENTS OF THE RABBINICAL FORM.] The Karaites of Russia freely intermarried with the Tartars and spoke a Tartar dialect. Groups of Karaites were found in Lithuania, Southern Russia, the Crimea, and at one stage even in Germany. Under the Czars the Jews were persecuted and the Karaites naturally wished to be exempt from anti-Jewish discrimination. They, therefore, claimed to be descended from the Lost Ten Tribes or from the Khazars. At all events as not related to the Judaeans and as such could not be held responsible for the crucifixion. 
Crimean Tombstones and the
Lost Ten Tribes
           In the Crimea of Southern Russia certain tombstones, etc., were fabricated by a wealthy Karaite scholar named Abraham Firkovitch (1786-1874). These tombstones bear the names of people stating that they are descended from Tribes of Israel exiled by Assyria. Firkovitch claimed that this was evidence that the Karaites in the Crimea had been there before the Jew and were not related to them. Several leading authorities were misled by this evidence and there were those who perhaps wanted to be misled in order to help the Karaites out of their predicament. By agreeing that the Karaites were descended from the Lost Ten Tribes, or from the Khazars, they were helping the Karaites claim that they were not related to the Jews and therefore should not be persecuted as Jews. It worked. The Karaites were exempted by Russian authorities from restrictive measures taken against Jews. [Some sections of the Lost Ten Tribes really had once been in the Crimea and in other areas of southern and eastern Russia. Not all the evidence produced by Firkovitch was necessarily false. The case is still under consideration.] Karaite figures, both under the Russians and under Hitler, strove to prove that they were not racially of Jewish, or Israelite, origin. Some of them were actively anti-Semitic. TO BE CONSIDERED AN ISRAELITE OF WHATEVER TYPE CAN BE DANGEROUS!! In some accounts of the Khazars it is assumed that the Karaites descend from them. This assumption is mistaken and misleading.
Biblical Attitude Toward
Converts in General
           Regarding conversion or simply the genuine acceptance of membership in the Israelite community, Scripture has already spoken, “Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt” (Exodus 22:20).
“One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation, and also for the stranger that sojourneth with you, an ordinance for ever in your generations: as ye are, so shall the stranger be before the LORD (Numbers 15:15).
          “And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance unto you, and to the strangers that sojourn amongst you, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel (Ezekiel 47:22).

Khazar History
          Traditional Jewish and Armenian sources as well as a linguistic study (Baschmakoff, Paris 1937), based on place-names indicated that the Khazars could be connected to Adiabene and its area in the region of Northern Mesopotamia, i.e. to an area to which part of the Lost Ten Tribes had been exiled in 730-720 BCE.
           Arab chroniclers record the Khazars as having been east of the Caspian Sea in the time of Alexander the Great (Dunlop). They also were said to have invaded Armenia in ca.197-217 CE and to have been subjected by the Armenians (Moses of Chorene). The Khazars assisted the Roman Emperor Julian the Apostate in 363 CE and managed to conquer Armenia with their ships dominating the Caspian Sea. The Caspian Sea was formerly known as “The Khazar Sea”. The Khazars were also known as “Gazari” and as “Akatzyri” and “Agathyrsoi”. In the past under the name Agathyrsoi they had been variously reported of in Thrace (south-east Europe), in the Pontus (north-east Turkey), in Poland, and towards the far north-eastern edge of the Baltic Sea shore. Servius on Virgil and Scottish sources said that the Picts of Scotland were descended from a portion of the Agathyrsoi who crossed the sea and conquered North Scotland. One branch of the Khazars were known as Sabirs. A group of “Sabarium” together with “Carnutum” had served in Gaul as Roman mercenaries. These have been ascribed both Anglo-Saxon and Central Asian origins (Altheim, GDH vol.1, p.209 ff, vol.4 p.108 ff). They used the runic “Ing” letter as their emblem. This sign is usually associated with the Angles and is of Scandinavian origin.

           In the period 350-450 CE, the Huns from the area of Mongolia advanced westward conquering other peoples and forcing them to join their forces or flee before them. The Huns swept into Europe. The Anglo-Saxon and related invasions of Britain in the 450s are connected with the Huns aggression. Attila the Hun in ca. 434 CE made the Akartziri (Khazars) his tributaries and appointed his first-born son, Ellac, as king over them. The Akatziri (Khazars), fought as Hun auxiliaries alongside the Black Huns and Alans in Gaul. Upon Attila’s death they returned to the Caucasus area.
           Central Asian and Scythian history can be confusing since there were many different groups, each of which often had several names. The names of one group were sometimes interchanged with that of another due to conquest or assimilation or one group taking over the former territory or status of the other.
          Another portion of the Khazars were the White Ugrians whom the Chinese described as tall, white-skinned, and green-eyed (McGovern p.472). The White Ugrians had been in that part of Scythia once ascribed to the “Hugie” who were in effect the Franks who later settled in France. The White Ugrians ruled over a mixed Turkish and Mongolian group known as the “Black” Ugrians. Another people once confederated with the Khazars were the White Huns who were also known as “Nephtali” and descended from the Naphtali Tribe of Israel. With the break-up of the Hun Empire remnants of the Huns in the east were absorbed by the “Turkish(?)” Juan-juan who became known as the Avars. The name “Avar” or “Abar” had originally been one of the names of the Naphtalite Huns but somehow it became applicable to the Juan-juan who ruled over them.
           As stated, a people in East Scythia known as the Juan-juan had once dominated the Khazars, White Ugrians, and Naphtalite Huns who revolted. In the course of this revolt most of the Naphtalites moved westward eventually reaching Scandinavia and settling in Norway. In the meanwhile the Khazars and White Ugrians defeated the Juan-juan (“Avars”) killing most of them. The remaining Avars were accepted as leaders by the Black Ugrians who previously had been “White Ugrian” vassals. The Black Ugrians henceforth took the name “Avar” upon themselves and migrated to Central Europe, where during the period 550-769 CE, they dominated Hungary, parts of Austria, and parts of Germany. Their kingdom was destroyed by the Frankish Emperor Charlemagne.
          Prior to 582 CE the Bulgars in eastern Scythia had been subject to a branch of the Khazars. They moved to the Volga-Ural region and also to the area of modern Bulgaria. In both places the Khazars were suzerain over them at some stage or other.
The Khazars Convert To Judaism
          The Russian-Jewish scholar, Abraham Harcavy (Vilna, 1867), believed that the Khazars had converted to Judaism in about 620 CE.  Other authorities put this event more than a hundred years later. The conversion at first was more or less a secret and was confined to the king and his co-ruling associate prince and to the inner aristocracy. Later most of the Khazars-proper appear to have converted along with some of the Alans and some of the other subject peoples, most of whom however remained pagan, Christian, or Moslem. The conversion was also done in stages (Polak).  At first they accepted a kind of monotheism with Hebraic-type ceremonies. Later they accepted full-fledged Rabbinical Orthodoxy. The first Khazar king to accept Judaism was named Bulan whose name means “unicorn” or “elk” (Altheim, GDH vol.1 p.239). The unicorn was an emblem known from the Sakae region east of the Caspian Sea. The conversion of the Khazars to Judaism was preceded by a Disputation amongst members of different religions. The Jewish poet and philosopher Yehuda HaLevi (1074-1141, Spain) wrote a Classical work in defence of Judaism using this Disputation as a framework. The book is called “The Kuzari”.
The Khazars conquer Hungary,
Poland, and Austria
          In 862 the Khazars conquered Kiev on the Dneiper River. They may even have been the original founders of Kiev. The Khazars also ruled over the Magyar people who at that time appeared in southern Russia. In about 869 a group of Khazars called "Chabars" rebelled against the main body and led their Magyar subjects westward to Hungary where they settled. The Khazars pursued them and subdued them in their new land. The Magyars of Hungary dominated Hungary up to 955 CE. Austrian tradition related that Austria was once ruled by a line of Jewish kings followed by a line of pagan ones, then came Christianity. The time given for these kings (707 bce -227 ce), actually coincides roughly with the period of Celtic dominance in the area and is discussed in the book “Origin” by Yair Davidiy (2002). The names however of these mythical Jewish kings are non-Hebraic. The first of them is described by the Chronicle as a local convert to Judaism. It has therefore been suggested (by Koestler) that Khazar control over the Magyars was responsible for this legend or at least for certain details of it. We would suggest that the bare structure of the legend has an historical basis and is connected with the Celts while some of the subsidiary details (such as the names, etc) were influenced by direct, or indirect, Khazar influence in the area. The two historical sources may have conflated into one.
           A Polish legend says that the Khazars conquered Poland and were led by an “Abraham Pey”. Another legend says that Poland was once ruled by a Jewish king called Abraham Pierkovnik (Polak p.187). The two figures, named Abraham “Pey” or “Pierkovnok” are apparently one and the same. A portion of the Agathyrsi (Khazars) were once in Poland and the said legends may be connected with them. 
The Khazars and the Vikings
           Around the 700s Viking “Varangians” began to penetrate the interior of Russia. The Varangians were mainly Swedish, though the term (in Russian Chronicles) could also be used to encompass anybody from Scandinavia, as well as Englishmen (E.B. 1955, “Russia”, Vernadsky). Varangians were confederated with the Khazars and may have been the Khazar entity referred to as the Varach’an (Warathan) Huns. The Varangians were variously referred to as “Varegos”, “Barragos”, and “Variag” (Polak p.187, Koestler p.147, Minorsky p.432).  Their name may be derived from the Hebrew “Beriah” [pronounceable as “Veri-a-g”], which name was given to a son of Asher (Genesis 46;17), a son of Ephraim (1-Chronicles 7;23), and a son of Benjamin(1-Chronicles 8;16).
          In ca.800 CE a group of Varangians appeared at the Byzantium court. They called their king “Chakan”. These varangians had orignally come from Sweden and apparently were subjects of the King of Khazaria (ARNE, T. J., Davidiy, "The Khazars. Tribe 13").  The title “Chakan”, or “Cagan”, was originally the Hebrew “COHEN” and means “priest” or “officiate”. [In the Ukraine today the western "h" is still pronounced like a "g"]. More information concerning the Khazars comes from a letter sent some time between 954-961 to Ibn Hasdai who was the Jewish physician and foreign minister to the muslim king of Cordoba in Spain. The letter is from a King Joseph of Khazaria. There are two versions of this letter but both contain important information from early sources. From the letter(s) we learn that: King Joseph was the 13th king of Khazaria; Previously, in the time of the 11th monarch, King Benjamin, all the surrounding kings had been at war against the Khazars except for the King of the Cossacks and the King of the Alans.
          By “King of the Cossacks”, the Don Cossacks are intended. The Don Cossacks were a mixed people amongst whom in historical times were a few isolated families who practiced Judaic customs and some of whom converted to Judaism. These individuals had the notion that they were descended from Dan, son of Israel, after whom the Don River was named (Casdoi). This only applies to a few isolated families amongst the Don Cossacks who on the whole have always been anti-Semitic. The Alans were a people who had lived to the north of the Caspian Sea then moved to the Caucasus area and north of it. Previously in the time of Attila, and before then (i.e. in the 400s CE), a section of the Alans had gone westward. They settled in areas of Gaul, especially in Brittany, and may have inluenced Norman military tactics (Bachrach). There were also groups of Alans amongst the Allemans in Alsace and in Suebia. In addition, the name “Alan” is found in Scotland both as a personal name and as the name of a Tribe in the north. In “The Tribes” the Alans are traced to Elon son of Zebulon.
          The letter continues to relate that the Alan monarch marched against the enemies of the Khazars and routed them. The King of the Alans had rendered assistance since “some of them observed the Torah of the Jews”. King Joseph of Khazaria himself was married to a daughter of the Alan ruler. Bar Hebraeus reported that the Khazars came from the east and settled in “the country of the Alans now called Barsalia” meaning an area on the northern shores of the Black Sea.
          The Khazars proper were a small group who obtained a loose uncertain control over many other nations. The Khazar power was probably always in frequent fluctuation. The Varangians established themselves in and around Kiev where they ruled over the natives. The local inhabitants said that Kiev had been founded by Ku and two of his brothers. These were foreigners (kinsmen of the Khazars), and ruled over the Polanians. The Polonian natives of Kiev told the Varangians that originally “there were three brothers...they built this town and perished. We are sitting [here] and pay tribute to their kinsmen the Khazars.....”  This is interesting since originally Kiev had been known as Sambat as reported by the Emperor of Byzantium, Constantine Porphyrogenitus, who lived at the time and had contact with the Khazars. The term "Sambat" means "Sabbath" and in Rabbinical Tradition via the form "Sambation" is linked to the Lost Ten Tribes. The people of Asgard (from whom descended many of the Scandinavians) had lived in this area. The Varangians at first acknowledged Khazar suzerainty and as mentioned it seems that the Khazar “Huns of Warathan” were Varangian. The Varangians were either also known as the Rus or the Rus were another group whom the Varangians absorbed and who became identified with them. In ca. 912-913 the Varangian Rus with Khazar connivance attacked Muslim and Christian settlements on the shores of the Black sea. When the Varangians were returning from their raids they were attacked by a band of 150,000 non-Khazar muslim and Christian subjects of the Khazar king. The attackers were acting against the will of the Khazar ruler who tried to stop them and sent a message to warn the Varangians against them. The Varangians lost 30,000 men in this encounter which meant the loss of 2/3 of their forces. This incident is symptomatic of the Khazars weakening position. Their kingdom had begun to disintegrate and they were overly dependent on Christian and Muslim mercenaries. Their subjects were asserting themselves. The Khazars were perhaps too liberally-disposed for that age and region. In the meantime amongst the Varangians of Kiev Christianity had been spreading. The Varangians were intermarrying with the Slavs and Slavonic elements were entering Varangian ranks as equals.
          Abraham Polak was a foremost scholar of Khazar history. He wrote an authoritative work ("Khazaria", in Hebrew, Tel Aviv, 1951) about them and considered them in part an offshoot of the Goths. This is supported by archaeological findings. The Khazar center of Itil on the Volga via the Goths who had preceded them inherited the Orenburg Culture which was derived from Assyrian and Iranian sources (ROSTOVTZEFF, M. 1922). According to Polak the Scandinavian element amongst the Varangians was basically pro-Khazar, whereas the Slavonic one was not. The more Christian and Slavonicised the Varangians became the more distance they kept from Khazar alliance. Saksin (Itil) one of the Khazar capitals was attacked by the Varangian-Rus in 962-963 and again by the Turks in 965. After these attacks the steppes became dominated by Turks and Mongolians. Khazaria was never the same after the Rus and Turkish attacks but some degree of partial recovery may have been achieved. Rubruques in the 1200s mentioned a “Civitas Saxorum” (i.e. City of the Saxons), and is presumed to be referring to the Khazar capital of Saksin (Itil). A German record says that in 1410 the Prince of Lithuania attacked lands by the Caspian Sea, “In the place where, as it is known, live the Red Jews”. The expression “Red Jews” is a term employed by medieval Jews and applied to the Lost Tribes of Israel with whom the Khazars appear to have been identified.
The Physical Appearance of the Khazars
          Three different types of Khazar are described by Arab writers who, through trade and diplomacy, had had direct contact with them. The Arab Geographer Istakhri (Koestler p.20) said: “The Khazars do not resemble the Turks. They are black-haired and of two kinds, one called the Kara [i.e. “Black”] - Khazars who are swarthy verging on deep black as if they were a kind of Hindu, and a white kind [Ak-Khazars], who are strikingly handsome”. Note the above description says that both kinds of Khazars had black hair though regarding countenance, etc. one was white and the other very dark.
         Al Maghribi said: “As to the Khazars, they are to the north of the inhabited earth towards the 7th clime, having over their heads the constellation of the plough. Their land is cold and wet, their eyes blue, their hair flowing and predominantly reddish, their bodies large and their natures cold. Their general aspect is wild”. Al-Maghribi is here apparently speaking of another section of the Khazars who lived more to the north. These had “predominantly reddish” hair and blue eyes. It was remarked above that the Khazar White Ugrians were described by the Chinese as red-haired, pale-skinned,and green-eyed. The Tartars of the Crimea nicknamed someone with red-hair "Cusa" meaning Khazar (Polak).
         The Alans who were closely associated with the Khazars were described by the Roman historian Ammianus Marcelinus as being blonde-haired like all the Scythians according to him. Ammianus includes the Agathysoi (Khazars) amongst the Alans. Other sources describe the Khazars as overwhelmingly of European type. From the above it follows that different Khazar and Khazar-linked groups were of different types.
The Khazars and Israel
          A letter from a Khazar subject (known in academic circles as the "Schechter Text" relates a tradition that they were descended from the Tribe of Simeon. Eldad HaDani (ca.850 CE), wrote that they came from Simeon and Menasseh. Other Jewish sources (e.g. Chronicle of Yerachmeel) mention the Tribes of Ephraim and Judah or of Nephtali and Dan though usually it is Simeon and Menasseh. The Cochin Scroll also says that the Khazars were descended from Simeon and Menasseh. At the peak of their history the Khazars controlled the area of the Don and Danaper Rivers and these rivers were referred to in Khazar times as “Sambation” and as “River of Sabt (i.e. “Shabat”), and in Jewish legend both terms are connected with the Lost Ten Tribes. Archaeological evidence has found Greek inscriptions bearing the name Sambation from the Don River region and dating from the pre-Christian era (Yair Davidiy, The Khazars. Tribe 13). The Khazars had emerged from areas to which the Lost Ten Tribes were exiled or had moved to after their exile. The Khazars were related to other groups for whom independent proofs show an Israelite origin and so what is pertinent to them is pertinent also to the Khazars and vice-versa. The Khazars were linked especially with the Tribes of Simeon and Menasseh. They were identical with the Agathyrsi-proper who derived from the Clan of "Jeezer" son of Gilead son of Menasseh (Numbers 26:30). The name transliterated as "Jeezerites" ("Ha-iy-ez-ri" in Hebrew), was probably pronounceable in Ancient Israel as "Ay-(g)a-zar", and the Agathyrsi were also known as "Acatzari", Khazari, and Gazari. This name was influenced by local pronounciation of the term "Caesar", the Khazars being considered the people of the Kagan who under Byzantine influence was referred to as Caesar just as the Ruler of the Russians was later called "Czar" (Polak). Those of the Agathyrsi (Acatzari), who remained in Scythia, eventually formed the nucleus of the Khazar nation.
The Picts of Scotland also came from the Agathyrsi. Amongst the pre-Christian Picts and Scottish existed a taboo on pig meat and on other unclean animals prohibited by the Mosaic code (MacKenzie, see our article: "The Food Taboos of Old Scotland"). Later in Christian times the tradition existed that "Jews", or a "Type of Jew", had settled in Scotland. Similarly the Khazars, before their conversion, had had some kind of notion that they were of Israelite descent and had had some exposure to Mosaic lore. The "Jeezer" (i.e. "Ay-g-azar" of Gilead) origin of the Picts is consistent with the neighboring Caledonians, (with whom the Picts united), being also descended from Gilead and the very name Caledonian is derived from Gilead. Elements (such as those of Gilead) connected with Menasseh dominated Scotland and the west of Britain. From these areas later came an overwhelming proportion of the early British settlers of North America in its beginnings. 
Havila east of the Caspian, the Anglo-Saxons, and Frisians
          Another name for the Khazars was “Kwalisse”, or rather in Old Russian the terms “Khazar”, “White Ugrian”, “Kwalisse” were synonymous, though these names actually refer to separate parts of the Khazar confederacy. “Kwalisse” is derived from Persian and means “Man of Kwala”. “Kwala” is another name for  the land of Chorasmia which was east of the Caspian. “Kwala”, or Choresmia, in Hebrew writings (such as those of Eldad HaDani) is referred to as “Havila”. In the History of Holland by Jean Francoise Le Petit (1601), “Havila” was possessed by the three brothers Saxo, Frisso, and Bruno who represented the Saxon, Frissian, and Anglian peoples. [These same three brothers in other Frisian legends are said to have come from the Land of Israel and are to be identified with former inhabitants of the Northern Kingdom, see "The Tribes" by Yair Davidiy]. “Havila”, says Le Petit, was in the “East Indies” near the Eumodian Mountains of which the three brothers were made guardians. According to Ptolemy the “Eumodian Mountains” were the Altai Mountain Range or near it. It follows from the above that “Havila” in effect equalled “Kwala” or Chorasmia. Within the region of Chorasmia-Havila Ptolemy recalled the presence of various Scythian peoples who, in “The Tribes”, are traced to Israelite entities. Examples include the Aspassi (Menasseh of Joseph), the Massaei (Menasseh), Machetegi (Maacha in Menasseh), Suobeni (Jospeh), Samnites (Simeon), Zaratae (Zarathites of Simeon), Namastae (Namuel of Simeon), and so on. It will be noticed that the mentioned groups are predominantly from Menasseh, or from Joseph (father of Menasseh), or from Simeon and the Khazars are recorded as belonging to the Tribes of Simeon and Menasseh. Most of the peoples listed by Ptolemy had migrated westward at the time of the Hun invasions of Europe or before then. Nevertheless, remnants evidently stayed behind and these became part of the peoples comprising the Khazar nations. From this region emerged the Parthians, many of whom converted to Judaism and who may be linked with the Khazars. In their own time the Arsacid rulers of Parthia were accredited Israelite origins. An Arab source (Yakut) (Ben-Zvi p.247),  says: “Isaac son of Abraham was the father of Khazar, and Bazar, and Bursul, and Horesm [i.e. Chorasmia-Havila] and Peel”, - all of which peoples appear to have been members of the Khazar confederation.
The Khazars and Scandinavia
          The Persians considered the Khazars a Scythian people. Herodotus (4;2) said that the Agathyrsoi (Khazars) were brothers to the Royal Scythians and Gelones. The Royal Scythians (Scuthae Basiloi) gave their name to Scandinavia which was known as “Basilia” and “Scatanavia” (Pliny N.H. 37;11). A portion of the Khazars were known as “Basilians” and their land, (by the Danaper River Mouth west of the Crimea in a former Royal Scyth region), as “Bartsula”.  "Basil" in Ancient Mesopotamia was a term applied to the area of Bashan east of the Jordan River and to the north. All this region was once part of the territory of the Israelite Tribes of Menasseh, Reuben, and Gad (cf. Deuteronomy 4:43).
         New archaeological findings indicate strongly that Scandinavia was once ruled by the Huns with whom the Khazars were associated. In addition recent findings show the former presence of a colony of Khazars that once existed in Birka in Central Sweden. These Khazars may have been connected to the early Angles and Saxons. Birka in Sweden was also linked with Hedeby. The Baltic port of Hedeby on the north German coast had been a center of the Angles before they moved to Britain. Hedeby was the place were Sheaf Saxnot, the mythical ancestor of the Anglo-Saxons, first arrived at. Sheaf had come from an unknown land in a boat without oars. He taught his people agriculture and the arts of civilization. Geofrey of Monmouth noted the presence of Picts in Scandinavia and he may have been referring to the Khazars who were also known as Agathyrsi and ancestors to part of the Picts. Danish tradition reported of warfare between the Ancient Danes and the Agathyrsi-Khazars. A Swedish scholar has claimed Khazar intermarriages with the Swedish aristocracy in Sweden.

KHAZARS AND FINS
     The Khazars were once considered ("Jewish Encyclopedia") to have spoken a Finish language as did many Steppe peoples of different origins. There used to exist an opinion that most of the Fins did not enter Finland (from Scythia) until the 700s and 800s CE. Nowadays this notion appears to have been dismissed though there probably is something to it. There may be a connection between the Khazars and the Finish people. The Fins of Finland in the 17th and 18th centuries believed themselves to be descended from the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel. The Fins call themselves Suomi (“Shuomi”) which is said to mean “People of the Marshes” or something similar. Nevertheless the name is not dissimilar to that of Simeon (“Shimeon”) in Hebrew, and the Khazars were traditionally descended from Menasseh and Simeon. Existing names are frequently re-interpreted and adapted to fit changing circumstances. The Fins are probably descended from the Iyrcae (or “Turcae”) former neighbours of the Nephtalite Huns. The Iyrcae (White Ugrians) were identified as Khazars in the Russian Chronicle (1100s CE). In our work, “The Tribes” the Finns are traced to the Tribes of Gad, Issachar, and Simeon.
The Ruling House of Khazaria Descended from King David!
       The Arabs reported that the Khazars were ruled by the House of "Ansa" or "Ayshia". This was before their conversion to Judaism. The Parthians and earlier monarchs of Scythia were also ruled by the same lineage.
These names are Arabic variations of the Hebrew "Yishai", as pointed out by Dr. Abraham Polak (1951, p.178).
Yishai in Hebrew is Jesse.
Jesse was the father of David.
"Yishai" (i.e. Jesse) was the father of David (Ruth 4:17) and the expression "Son of Jesse" is a common synonym for David and/or the Lineage of David (e.g. 1-Kings 12:16 2-Chronicles 10:16, 2-Samuel 20:1).

        There were offshoots from the House of David amongst the northern Ten Tribes (as distinct from Judah in the south) even before they were exiled from the Assyrians ("Ephraim. The Gentile Children of Israel"). The rulers of Yadi in southeast Turkey which belonged to Israel at the time had Hebrew names like Gabbar, Bamah, Hayya, Saul. Yadi disappeared together with the northern Ten Tribed Kingdom of Israel. "Yadi" means Judah and was the entity referred to in the Bible:
[2-Kings 14:28] NOW THE REST OF THE ACTS OF JEROBOAM, AND ALL THAT HE DID, AND HIS MIGHT, HOW HE WARRED, AND HOW HE RECOVERED DAMASCUS, AND HAMATH, WHICH BELONGED TO JUDAH, FOR ISRAEL, ARE THEY NOT WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF THE CHRONICLES OF THE KINGS OF ISRAEL?
Hamath was the name of a region as well as a city and here refers to "Yadi".
"Yadi" may well have been ruled over by a minor branch of the Davidic Family.
"Yadi" adjoined and was linked with "Smal" of the Dananu from the Tribe of Dan. The Tribe of Dan had ruled over this area as well as the Isle of Cyprus which the Assyrians called "Ydnna" or "Island of Dan".

inscriptionIn 1994, excavations of Dan of the Galilee led to the finding of an Aramaic inscription was found mentioning a "House of David" in connection with Dan. The inscription is in Aramaean (Syrian) and seems to indicate that this House of David had ruled over Dan shortly before it was attacked.

The Israelite Origins of the Khazars
          We have seen that the “Sambation” was in Khazar territory. The Arabs linked the Khazars with Isaac; and on the whole identified them as "Jews". Their Russian neighbors also referred to the Khazars as "Jews" and their ruler as "King of the Jews". In Gentile terminology all Israelites may be referred to as "Jews". Names of groups in the Khazar area bore Israelite Tribal and clan names; Jewish and Khazar traditions link them with Israel. European references to the Kingdom of the Khazars referred to them as Red (i.e. red-haired) Jews and identified them with the Lost Ten Tribes. The Khazars had familial links with peoples who moved to Western Europe and whom other proofs show to have been of Israelite descent. Also indicative of Hebrew ancestry is the fact that they converted to Judaism despite the hostility expressed to this religion by other peoples in the region. Their conversion was an outcome of already existing traditions of Israelite ancestry and former adherence to the Mosaic Faith.
              The Khazars were mainly the descendants of Jews and of Israelites from the Lost Ten Tribes. We have evidence for this belief.  There were numerous Rabbanical Jews who fled to the Land of the Khazars and settled there. The Land of the Khazars relatively speaking was close to and connected by trade and culture to the former region of Babylonia which had remained a center of Jewish population ever since the time of Nebuchadnezzar. With the Muslim conquest of Mesopotamia, persecutions of the Jews in Byzantium, and general change of circumstances much of Babylonian Jewry moved into the Khazar region.

        It has been claimed that many European Jews are descended from Khazars - this may be, but it has not been proven. If it were so it would strengthen our position rather than weaken it. HOWEVER there is NO evidence. NOT that there is evidence that can be dismissed BUT there is none APART, (perhaps) from the names of a few villages in Poland, and the fanciful imaginations of a few dilettantes. The Khazars emerged into history at a time when Turkic culture was dominant in their area and at one stage were ruled over by Turkic groups. Jews had many contacts with the Khazars and with Turkic peoples and many Jews had dwelt in both the Khazar Kingdom and in the Turkish Empire. If we were to find traces of the Khazars or Turkic-influences in Jewish culture etc it would not necessarily prove anything since such things can be absorbed by historical contact.
BUT EVEN THIS WE DO NOT FIND!
        There are no definite names, no real family traditions that are certain, no customs, no words, not anything at all that can provide us with a firm connection between the European Jews and the Khazars whom some people claim they are descended from.
        A few nineteenth-century Assimilated Hungarian Jews claimed to be descended from Khazars (considered then to be a Magyar Hungarian-type people) because that would make them next-of-kin to their Gentile Hungarian neighbors but they had no proof or not even any real evidence. Being related to the Magyars in the eyes of Hungarian nationalists at the time may have added to national or personal status!
        TSo-called "Identity" People who dedicate energy and time to "proving" (in their minds) that the Jews are Khazars etc are actually enemies of Identity truth. They are knowing or unknowing agents of anti-semitic interests that are also against the "Anglo-Saxon" existence. They are enemies of America and of all that is good. The epithets they are apply to others mostly suit themselves.
        Much Additional EVIDENCE strengthens the case that the Khazars were of Israelite descent in so far as the proofs in question show that the Khazars really did consider themselves on the whole to be of Israelite origin and so were regarded by most Jewish authorities who were familiar with them as well as the testimony of their neighbors. The evidence in question consists of Hebraic sources and much historical evidence some of which has not previously been available in English. There are also new findings now available in the religious, archaeological, mythological, and linguistic fields. This is presented in a new book by Yair Davidiy, "The Khazars. Tribe 13".
