> Also, I've been doing some readings on the Khazar's. Do you think these are the true ancestors of the European Jews?
No, they were not. First, no one knows how the Khazars adopted Judaism. The popular theory saying that one day their leader woke up and ordered all his people to convert to Judaism is laughable.
Second, Khazars ceased to exist as a separate ethic entity back in the 10th century. Some of them were killed; those who stayed in South Russia converted into Christianity. Those who moved south converted into Islam. There were no Jews in Russia until the 18th Century when Kathryn the Great allowed Hews from Europe in. It is laughable to claim that the Jewish Khazars were hiding somewhere for 700 years and then came back into Russia pretending to be European Jews with the sole purpose of pushing Arabs out of Palestine 200 years later.
