First things first, thank you to my guest for coming on. Here is his book. And here is his author page on Unz. You can also find him on Substack.
The originator of the Khazar theory was Arthur Koestler and his book “The Thirteenth Tribe” which deals with the Khazars converting to Judaism. Before Israel was created, Koestler was an ardent Zionist and a follower of Ze’ev Jabotinsky, the Russian-Zionist nationalist who advocated a rapid and violent establishment of a Jewish state by any means necessary. In his college days, Koestler, as chairman of the Federation of Zionist Fraternities, was asked to escort Jabotinsky on his lecture tour around Europe’s universities.
But his motives for creating and popularizing the Khazar theory become even clearer when we look at what he had to say was behind his interest in the topic. This came up in the podcast. The comment that Karl was referring to was found in an article about Koestler’s self-admitted intentions when setting up the fake Khazar theory. Here:
Koestler, the [Ethnic] one time Communist and radical Zionist (Jabotinsky party member), is most famous for writing the book “The Thirteenth Tribe” which is one of the most quoted “proofs” of the “Khazar theory.”
“Koestler’s history is clear. Like many other [ethnic Communists], he vacillated between Communism and Zionism ultimately settling on Zionism.
He was a signed-up member of the Communist Party of Germany prior to World War II, supported the [ethnic] Bolshevik mass murderer Bela Kuhn (Cohen) in Hungary, and also ran the Secretariat of Ze’ev Jabotinsky’s Zionist Revisionist Party in Berlin. He only left the Communist International after the Hitler-Stalin Pact of 1939 (as did many other [ethnic] Communists after the [ethnics] lost power under Stalin).
“His official biography, written by Michael Scammell, specifically quotes him on why he wrote “The Thirteenth Tribe”.
“His argument was that if he could persuade people that a non-[Chosen] “Khazar” heritage formed the basis of modern [ethnic theorists], then this would be a weapon against European racially based anti-Semitism.
“Should this theory be confirmed, the term ‘anti-Semitism’ would become void of meaning,” he said.
“According to Scammell, Koestler told French biologist Pierre Debray-Ritzen he “was convinced that if he could prove that the bulk of Eastern European [God’s Chosen] were descended from the Khazars, the racial basis for anti-Semitism would be removed and anti-Semitism itself could disappear.”

“There you have it: The [Demiurgic] radical who wrote “The Thirteenth Tribe,” the book which more than any other that advanced the “Khazar theory,” did so because he thought it would advance the interests of the [nation of priests].
“The attempt to say that [Saturn-worshippers] are not a race is merely a very convenient method to avoid being called “racist”—when in fact racism and tribalism is exactly how [Ethnic] Supremacists achieve and maintain their power.
And there you have it.
I want to hear no more nonsense about these phantom Khazars.
Those who promote the theory are tricking you. If you believe in it, it is because you want to be tricked on account of all the spook programs running roughshod over your reason in your head.
Anything to avoid accepting the truth!
