I'm still plowing through your series on Khazarians.
You mention them as predominately of Jewish origins, but the struggle of finding archaeological findings of their existence remains a mystery (maybe as I get beyond reading 4, more will become clear as only the burial site mention was shared thus far).
My curiosity is in learning why such a strong people of history would leave no trace of their being there for literally hundreds of years.
Was it due to their professions of simply being merchants and traders and there was no sense of permanency as they survived?
I'll finish all of the postings and circle back if I have more questions. Amazing information and historical capture thus far. Thank you.
Hello Walking: The Khazarians is on another thread, so I won't go into it deeply. The Khazarians were not Jewish, and didn't become Jewish, because Jewish people do not want to dilute their ethnos. They have an exclusive pact with Yahweh. There was a coup in 900 something, and Jewish forces took over the rulership. It is in the book, and pretty clearly stated. They kept order with hired Muslim mercenaries, and held power for a couple hundred years, from which they controlled much of the sections of the silk road trade. It is said that slave trade was also going in the other direction.
There is probably a lot to say about it, but slave trade was ongoing in Eastern Europe for 1,000 years. (Not Africans). All the different principalities relied on it to finance their mercenary armies. Khazarians were also money lenders, and capturing and selling slaves allowed for paying them back.
Why there is limited evidence of their culture, I have no clue?
Hello and well-met, Librarian! Greg, who posts as Walking the Dog, sent me a long quote from your response on Matt Ehret's thread. I sub Matt (and have done three episodes on him) but there are places where our views diverge. Greg wrote of your comment, "Her depth of the history of Khazaria was stunning (to me) and she had quite a different take (much closer to yours) with amazingly solid supporting statements, etc."
And yes! I think our takes have much in common. What I say is that people are inherently good, and when they behave badly, systems and stories are to blame. My book, How to Dismantle an Empire, is about changing the system: https://www.amazon.com/How-Dismantle-Empire-2020-Vision/dp/1733347607. And much of my research is on challenging the stories, especially in the form of scripture.
I'll link some of them below but mention an interesting similarity between your statement about the Talmud and the gospels. People often think that the story of Jesus started out pure and kind but has been twisted by subsequent editing and translations. In fact, the reverse is true. The New Covenant is translated by Willis Barnstone directly from the Greek, which is the original language of the story, verbal or written (I'd put that in italics if I could). He decided to not to 'soften the blows' of the vicious and hateful things said by 'Jesus' to his fellow 'Jews'. Although Willis is a believer, he's also an honest scholar. And subsequent translations have covered up the vitriol that would contradict the idea we have of a benevolent and loving teacher.
Here's the article where Greg left the comment mentioning you, followed by some others:
re your link to israel shahak pdf, i had to run this through a tor browser circuit to get it, it appears to be blocked via standard channels.... i wonder why
Hello Duckman: I appreciate your comment. I am on a VPN server to the Netherlands, and the link worked right away for me, just now. I also clicked the Pdf button on archive.org and that downloaded immediately also.
Now I have changed the link to an actual link above. But it worked before. Perhaps just change your VPN to test some different servers. Thank you for reading.
I have a deep interest in Russian history, especially as it relates to the present day evolution of the various post-Soviet cultures. So much nonsense has been written about Russia and the USSR in the western media that I've tried to find sources from actual Russian authors to offset that bias, which is what first attracted me to this site.
The most obvious starting point for people with my inclination was Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, who I first read many years ago. What I find most interesting, apart from his writing, is how quickly he went from respected dissident to deplorable pariah simply by publishing his two volume work '200 Years Together' in 2001/2002. This followed shortly after his first meeting with V.V. Putin in Sept. 2000 which no doubt also damaged his image in the West. Nonetheless, I found the book to be a well-balanced, highly detailed look at a part of Russian history few in the West are aware of, and every bit as valuable as his previous works. So with that in mind, here's a link to the English translation, as well as a link to the Wikipedia article which provides some insight to the public reaction, which he of course anticipated, hence the late publication date.
it took me over 5 evenngs to watch it, for most "westerners" (im in uk) discovering that all the history we were taught is lies is most liberating
watching this has changed the way i view current events, especially the role of "israel"
and as i think more and more on the subject i am reminded of what is known as the "3rd Fatma secret" the knowledge the vatcan has repressed for many years and Russias role in the future of Humanity
thank you, what you provide gives further factual evidence of the actual threat to Our world from this "group"
having only recently had my eyes truly opened to the factual inaccuracies written about the activities by the national socialist party last century i am increasingly aware of the ability of lies to not only perpetuate and grow but alter/reduce the firm standing one has in terms of conscious processes in dealing with the challenges Our world faces from such a bizzarre, clearly mentally disturbed and overtly satanic sect/cult
the word egregore has such enormous relevance i feel:
We face tough times ahead, tougher than We ever envisaged, having followed the evidence of satanic manifestation in Our Realm stemming in part from the activites of crowley, steiner, fortune and many others it is clear to see how this cult views the intended interventions of their chosen demiurge/s in pushing their own agenda of domination..
I look forward (if that is indeed the right expression) to reading more of your work
I am beginning to believe that no matter what distorted and violent belief systems, (Christian - Jewish - or Muslim), they wouldn't be able to do much of anything if America didn't give them the money, arms, and orders to create havoc.
I think America is run by eschatological freaks. (Destruction fanatics under the guise of good Christians.) This thread is about the "Anti-System". Let's see what other evidence will end up in here?)
understood, "zionst christianity" (itself a contradiction in terms) seems hell bent (excuse pun) on creating so much abomination here that "god" intervenes? i write god lower case as i feel "they" have not the first clue which "deity" they actually serve, those pulling the american puppet strings however know exactly whom they serve..
on a recent "max igan" broadcast that a friend saved to device, (myself i am "off grid: and rely on a dongle on an usb cord..) footage was shown of a congresswoman being "controlled", "puppeted", demoncally possessed if you prefer by the unknown "aide" seated behind her... needs to be seen to be fully understood
on one hand we have eschatological freaks as you call them convinced JC is going to come trotting out on ye olde road to damascus and meanwhle chabad et al bringing about the "arrival" of his counterpart as discussed in detail in numerous articles here:
re your link to pdf it is the fact that it is blocked content here in the uk that i was raising as a point, it looks to be an "engrossing" read that will require more than a brief inspection, thanks for it
"Never mind this puts all those prejudices (?) against Jews into context."
Nope, as Librarian clearly states, just eschatological freaks (psychophants, psycopaths, sociiopaths, greed and power mongers). I't never been about Jews.
Take USA where we're a State Government lost at sea. It's not Americans or USA Citizens that are the problem.

You've heard the two sayings:
"There's never really been a war, but there's been plenty of massacres."
"When two dogs fight over a bone (war), the third dog always ends up with it (banks and money changers)."

The parts I know are true are all true.
I've dated a couple observant Jews over the years.
Thank you. Doubt that I'll have time to plow thru it either, but from your description, seems it will be an addition resource that may be useful.
The link for the firts file by ebear doesn't appear. Where can I find it.?
Shakak's book is a real eye-opener. Highly recommend.
Sorry I left it out. It is so involved (but clear) that I did not try to follow it any further. Especially after I read the book.

Truly dark, sick stuff.
Per the Wiki entry:
"Rabbinic literature, in its broadest sense, is the entire spectrum of rabbinic writings throughout Jewish history. "
Truly a "novel" with continuous updates?
I've read that it's constantly changing/updating to try to remove "some of" the chauvinism it exudes.
Chauvinism: Prejudiced belief in the superiority of one's own gender, group, or kind, fanatical patriotism."
Correct me if my reading is flawed.
When they speak of God, it's clear to us all now, it's about their god, and that's it.
We're just useless eaters (goyims) that Talmud followers/believers need to run over the top of on their way to their heaven.
You can have it.
Thanks for all you do Librarian. Love the depth and broad perspectives.
Best
