I've read about 4 studies on Jewish genetics before and the score was 2-2. Whenever a study came out that they weren't descendants of Israelites another study came out and refuted it with their own research.
Now the score is 3-2 to the khazar hypothesis. Watch how quickly a new contesting study comes out.
How do they know the genetics of the ancient Israelites?
Do they dig up and test the ancients remains? Or are they just guessing what they might be.
What standard are they measuring by? How do they get DNA from bones? Are they sure that those bones are a pure blooded Israelite and not an Edomite or philistine?
Or are they testing older markers in the khazar genetics and confirming themselves? In a A Priori manner.
What genetic marker are they looking for? What incontrovertible proof is there that this an Israelite?
When the last temple was destroyed all of the 10 tribes of Israel records were destroyed. Many have no memory of their tribal heritage, therefore, the original Israelites have disappeared. Israel does not allow genetic testing— the people are not from Israel. They are foreigners.
Not only that but after each occupation, Babylonian, Assyrian and eventually Roman and the resulting destruction of Judea the communities of displaced Jews intermarried within the populations where they settled…which further diluted the bloodline.
That's where we did come from before we entered Europe though (600-500BC). The Arabs only took over during the Islamic period (600-700AD). So we cant look at populations now and assume they were always like that. Over 400 years ago whites weren't in America.
Europeans didn't grow on the rocks of the Caucusus mountains we simply passed through them into Europe. The ones that passed through the caucusus the Greeks called Keltoi but there was another group that entered Europe through present day Turkey the Greeks called Cimmeroi.
Even if you don't believe the Biblical belief that we all come from the early mesopatamian culture of Iraq, the secularists accept we came from the early neolithic farmers from the mideast.
Whether we come from the mideast is not the debate, it's when did we come from there into Europe. Secularists say 8000 years ago but historical written records and archaeology (and lack of archaeology in Europe, excluding the mediterranean coastline) say it was 600-500BC.
I don't understand what you are getting at, young_patriot said whites cant be from the mid east so addressed that, now youre arguing when fair skin and eyes developed.
I can't speak to when whiite skin and blue eyes began but I know the Nords also come from the same people that entered into Europe from the Caucusus mountains around 600 BC.
I used the word 'we' as a general term as we Europeans. I'm white skin and blue eyes and I'm not Nordic and my ancestors most likely came to the British Isles from the Mediterranean culture, different from the Keltoi people.
Looks like the cited paper is not new, it is from 2013. Since that article only presents one side I went ahead and found one of those refutations you mentioned.
The article goes over all of that. Why don't you read it? And yes he DNA tested old bones from 3 different locations that were identified and deemed from the original Israeli people according to biblical passages. The man's work is quite thorough.

Quit asking questions and trust the science, bigot!
LOL!

You barely need a DNA test to know that people with white skin and blue eyes might not be entirely indigenous to the middle east.

Your "we" seems to be a slim margin of the population. Nordic Europeans developed light skin and blue eyes many thousands of years ago.

No Evidence from Genome-Wide Data of a Khazar Origin for the Ashkenazi Jews
