It's not just you. And it's going to get worse.

Off topic, but doesn’t it seem athiests only attack Christians, not Jews or Muslims? Anti-semites attack Jews, but athiests seem concerned only with Christians. Obviously, an athiest in a Muslim country would get his head cut off, but Christians actually guarantee the rights of athiests, even as athiests continue to harrass and attack them.

Professor Sand, a scholar of modern France, not Jewish history, candidly states his aim is to undercut the Jews’ claims to the land of Israel by demonstrating that they do not constitute “a people,” with a shared racial or biological past.

So does that mean that if we have a shared racial or biological past (the same thing really) then we do have a legitimate claim to the Land in this guy's mind?

Totalitarians must have an "other" on whom they can blame the plight of their own tribe/nation/people. (sounds like someone occupying public housing in Wash DC) Jews have long served this purpose. The level of persecution and blame heaped upon them varies from time to time, but never really goes away.

By now, experts who specialize in the subject have repeatedly rejected the theory, concluding that the shards of evidence are inconclusive or misleading, said Michael Terry, the chief librarian of the Jewish division of the New York Public Library. Dr. Ostrer said the genetics also did not support the Khazar theory.”

Gee what a surprise. This sounds a lot like the nonsense about the gnostic gospels that just recently created such a stir. Just another lie that every so often is resurrected to advance some group’s agenda.

Beyond the Mountains of Darkness
by Immanuel Velikovsky
...When one hundred and thirty-eight years later, in the beginning of the sixth century, the people of Judah were also led into exile -- by Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon -- they did not find the exiled tribes of Israel in Babylonia, though they dwelt by the river Chebar (Khvor, i.e., Khabur), which flows in the central region of that country...

On the middle flow of the Volga, a city with the name Samara exists and has existed since grey antiquity. It is situated a short distance downstream from the point where the Volga and the Kama join. Russian conquerors of the ninth century found this city in existence. The medieval Arab geographer Yakubi, basing himself on accounts of the ninth-century traveller Ibn Fadlan, speaks of the Khazars who dwelt in Samara...

The ruling class of the Khazars used Hebrew as its language, and the Hebrew faith was the official religion in the realm of the Khazars. There was a system of great tolerance, unique in the Middle Ages, in respect to other religions; the Supreme Court was composed of two persons of Jewish faith, two Moslems, two Christians, and one idolater of the Russian population; but it was not a confusion of creeds as it had been in old Samaria, which tolerated many creeds, the monotheism of Yahweh being a protesting ingredient of the confusion.

Were the Khazars or their ruling aristocracy converted to Judaism in a later age? This position was based on what was said in a letter of the Khazar king Joseph, written about the year 961, to the Jewish grandee, Hasdai ibn-Shaprut, at the court of Cordoba. 'Abd-al-Rahman al-Nasir, the Moorish ruler of Spain, had asked the King of the Khazars to provide any available information about his people, Hasdai's brothers in religion. In the letter of reply the Khazar king recited a tradition or a legend; advocates of three religions came to some prior king of the Khazars, and he picked the Jewish faith because the Christian and the Mohammedan alike gave preferrence to the Jewish religion above that of their respective rival.

The story exposes its mythical character. In the seventh or eighth centuries of the present era, the adepts of the Jewish faith were persecuted by the Christians and also by the Moslems, and would hardly be chosen to become the religion of the state. A similar legend of "choosing" a religion is told about Vladimir of Kiev: in this legend the Khazars were the delegates representing the Jewish faith.

Had the Khazars been converted to Judaism, it would be almost incredible that they would call their city by the name Samara. Samaria was a sinful city from the point of view of the nation that survived in Palestine after the fall of Samaria, and out of which eventually grew the rabbinical Judaism of later centuries.

The conversion to the Jewish religion would also not imply the adoption of the Hebrew language. It is remarkable that the state language of the Khazars was Hebrew; the king of the Khazars was quite capable of reading and answering a Hebrew letter.

Long before the correspondence between Joseph and Hasdai of the tenth century, the Khazar monarchs had Hebrew names. The dynasts previous to king Joseph were in the ascending order: Aaron, Benjamin, Menahem, Nisi, Manasseh II, Isaac, Hannukah, Manasseh, Hezekiah, and Obadiah. A conversion to Judaism in the seventh or eighth century of the present era would bring with it names common to Hebrews in the early Middle Ages, like Saadia or Nachman; the Judaism of the early Christian age was rich in names like Hillel, Gamliel, while Hellenistic names like Alexander, or Aristobul were not infrequent. Again, the Biblical names of an early period would give prominence to names like Joab, Gideon, or Iftach, and still an older group of names would be Gad, Issahar, Zwulun or Benjamin.

It is peculiar that some of the king of the Khazars were called by the names used in Israel at the time that Samaria was captured by the Assyrians...

I would like to express here the belief that excavation in or around Samara on the Volga may disclose Hebrew signs of the eighth and seventh centuries before the present era. Other sites of old settlements on the Volga, too, may disclose remnants of old Hebrew culture.

The Hebrew (most probably also Assyrian) name for the Volga, Gozan, seems to have survived in the name Kazan. The city Kazan is located to the north of Samara, a very short distance beyond the place of confluence of the Volga and the Kama, two equally large streams. A tributary by the name Kazanka, or "small Kazan," flows there into the Volga...

Ummm - I just got flamed on another thread that did a lot of chest thumping over the fact that Jews are the smartest race in the world...as long as you control for Middle Eastern Jews vs European Jews.

Isnt the “European Jew” the same as the people mentioned in this article?

This is a timely article. There is another one now revealing that Africans were never black, but instead, are the descendents of the Atlantis Perogeum people that evolved in Atlantis and used genetic manipulation to turn their pale skins black so as to better survive the high radiation levels from the Sunlight in Africa when they migrated there in their giant solar-powered flying umbrella ships once they learned that their homeland was about to be destroyed by now extinct reptilian sea monsters. What a coincidence!

“Is it just me, or is anti-semitism becoming the next cool cause du jour? “

It’s a golden oldie. But some folks like to toss the term about promiscuously, much like charges of racism, so such accusations shouldn’t be taken at face value.
