Why are people arguing over the "type of people." We are all simply people. Anyone who contributes otherwise in my opinion simply cannot outgrow the concept of race.

Here's what we know about her. She was a granddaughter of Eglon, king of Moab, who himself was a grandson of Balak, king of Moab during Moses' times.1 Ironically, both these kings had hostile relations with the Israelites: Balak retained the anti-Semitic sorcerer Balaam to curse the Israelites (as recorded in Numbers 22-24); Eglon allied with the Ammonites and Amalekites and occupied Israel for eighteen years until he was slain by the Israeli leader Ehud (Judges 3).

2). One cannot say Yiddish is 'not related to Biblical Hebrew' when they both use Hebrew characters. That's a pretty big relation.

Introduction
Current events dealing with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict have created a significant increase in ATS threads discussing various aspects of the long-running issue. Due to this, possibly a dozen times in the last two days alone I've noticed accusations that today's Jews (American, European, and Israeli) are not 'real Jews' but are instead descendants of Khazarian Jewish converts. This claim is typically offered as a reason why Jews currently inhabiting the state of Israel have no legitimate ancestral claim to the land. My intent with this thread is to debunk such an accusation.
The Conspiracy Begins
The theory is now very popular with various anti-semitic and anti-Zionist organizations and is mostly used to negate Israel's purpose of existence.
Conclusion
In light of all evidence, most scholars and historians have rejected or abandoned the conspiracy theory altogether. The remaining proponents of the theory generally consist of various groups and organizations seeking to undermine Israel's sovereignty, its citizens right to the land, and to propagate anti-semitic information.
You'll often find this information still being presented without any actual facts to back it up on anti-semitic websites like Stormfront, Jew Watch, etc.
The fact remains, this claim simply is not factual and all evidence points to this conspiracy theory being false.

Is it assumed here that there is no debate over whether DNA can determine race? (Google: “DNA can (or cannot) determine race”)
Setting aside whether Ashkenazi Jews are genuinely Semitic or not, I wonder why the term “anti-Semitic” refers to discrimination against Jews only.
Are Palestinians not also Semitic?
What should discrimination against Palestinians be called? Pro-Semitism?
