Jews and Turks

By Dr. Abdullah Manaz for VT Turkey

Until the 1950s, there was not a serious enmity between the Jews and the Muslim community. Jews and Muslims smoothly lived in the same country, same city, and same neighborhood throughout history. There were Jewish quarters and synagogues where they had been able to worship in many Muslim countries. The Jews continued to exist even in Iran which is Israel’s greatest enemy today. The Jews freely traded in the Islamic world for centuries. Jewish cemeteries still stand in Muslim cities as the most important evidence of this common life.

More importantly, many Turkish communities in history chose Judaism. The Khazars which is the western flank of Gokturks State established dominance in the region from Central Asia to the Caucasus and the Crimea from the A.D. 600s. Hazara Turks that believe in Sky God Religion formally entered Judaism after the A.D. 800s and they reigned until the A.D. 1000s. Khazars that were ruled under the reign of Russia for a time, fled to Europe after A.D. 1200s.[1] They met with Jewish immigrants living in France and Germany and Ashkenaz Judaism emerged.[2] However, studies about the Y chromosomes of the Ashkenazi Jewish community verified that their origin is based on Turks, not to Samis.[3] Today, 80 percent of the Jewish is Ashkenazi.[4]

Ashkenaz word was coming from Ashguazi which is the ancient name of Scythians (Saka Turks) that lived in the area from the Great Wall of China to the Danube River between B.D 800 and 200.[5] (5) Today, Karaite Jews (also Turks) in Poland, Lithuania, and Crimea were based on the same origin.



Turkish presence was quite annoying for European countries especially for Germans all throughout history. In the summer of 2010, the German Central Bank Executive Board Member Thilo Sarrazin told in his book Titled “Germany is Effacing Itself”, the book is a tirade of abuse against Muslim immigrants, spiced with social Darwinist prejudices and racist theories that recall the eugenics of the Third Reich.[6]

However, in the past, Ashkenazi who spread all over Europe and were influenced by German culture and language, was the main enemy of the Germans. Famous Jewish author Leon Pinsker wrote in a brochure that was published in Germany in 1882, summed up this hostility as follows:

“Since the Jew is nowhere at home, nowhere regarded as a native, he remains an alien everywhere. That he himself and his forefathers as well was born in the country does not alter this fact in the least. Generally, he is treated as an adopted child whose rights may be questioned but never is he considered a legitimate child of the fatherland. The German, proud of his Teutonic character, the Slav, the Celt, not one of them admits that the Semitic Jew is his equal by birth; and even if he be ready, as a man of culture, to admit him to all civil rights, he will never go as far as the Jew in this, his fellow citizen… To sum up what has been said: For the living, the Jew is a dead man; for the natives, an alien and a vagrant; for the property holders, a beggar; for the poor, an exploiter and a millionaire; for patriots, a man without a country; for all classes, a hated rival.”[7]

Hostility towards Jews had increased in the 1900s and Theodor Herzl who is the leader of political Zionism and an Ashkenaz offered the Pope “Making Christian of Jews”. Herzl had told the following in his memories:

“Anti-Semitism has grown and continues to grow and so do I. I can now recall two different formulations and solutions to the question which occurred to me during those years. About two years ago I wanted to solve the Jewish question, at least in Austria, with the help of the Catholic Church. I wished to arrange for an audience with the Pope (not without first assuring myself of the support of the Austrian clerical powers) and say to him: “Help us against the anti-Semites and I will lead a great movement for the free and honorable conversion of Jews to Christianity.” Free and honorable, inasmuch as the leaders of this movement –myself in particular- would remain Jews, and as Jews would urge a conversion to the majority faith. In broad daylight, on twelve o’clock of a Sunday, the exchange of faith would take place in St. Stephen’s Cathedral, with a solemn parade and the peer of bells. Not with shame, as sorry individuals have hitherto gone over, but with a proud gesture.[8]

However, any effort could not prevent this hostility of Europeans. Jews were treated like third-class citizens. They were imprisoned in Ghettos. They were made freaks, shown with fingers. The only solution for them was to migrate to another country, especially to their homeland from Europe. Rabbi Yehuda Hai Alkalai who was the leader of Jews in Europe, wrote as follows in 1843:

“It is not impossible for us to carry out the commandment to return to the Holy Land.

The Sultan will not object, for His Majesty knows that the Jews are his loyal subjects. Differences in religion should not be an obstacle, for each nation will worship its own God and we will forever obey the Lord, our God. I ask of our brethren that they organize a company, on the mode of fire insurance companies and of the railroad companies. Let this company appeal to the Sultan to give us back the land of our ancestors in return for an annual rent. Once the name of Israel is again applied to our land, all Jews will be inspired to help this company with all the means at their disposal.”[9]

Hence, Herzl met with the German King in Palestine and Istanbul and with Turkish Sultan Abdulhamid II in Istanbul, trying to purchase land in Palestine. The Sultan suggested the Urfa region instead of Palestine. Some European Jews that despaired from Palestine, brought land in Uganda and thought of settling there. The United Kingdom combined Jews in the idea of “Return the Holy Land (Palestine)” with the help of the great Jewish bankers, because oil was found as a new source of energy, and was understood that the largest oil reserves in the Ottoman land, especially in Mosul. The biggest supporter of this idea was the Rothschild family which is the Oil Emperor of the Future. The family moved to Frankfurt in Germany and set up “The Caucasus and Black Sea Oil Industry and Trade Company”. The largest oil company Dutch Royal Shell which seized Azeri oil before Mosul oil in 1911, was still owned by the Rothschild Family.

As a result of the efforts of Rothschild, British Foreign Secretary Lord Arthur James Balfour sent the following letter, known as the “Balfour Declaration”:

“Dear Lord Rothschild,

I have much pleasure in conveying to you, on behalf of His Majesty’s Government, the following declaration of sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations which has been submitted to, and approved by, the Cabinet.

“His Majesty’s Government view with favor the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country.”

I should be grateful if you would bring this declaration to the knowledge of the Zionist Federation.

Yours sincerely,

Arthur James Balfour”[10]

Thus, in the same year, the British army, commanded by Allenby, occupied Jerusalem. European Jews began to settle in Palestine in small groups by buying houses and farms. Meanwhile, the oil companies which were supported by the Rothschild family obtained oil operatorship in Mosul in 1914. In 1935, the first major oil pipeline was built between Kirkuk and Haifa (Palestine).

At the end of the First World War, Germany was also defeated along with the Ottoman Empire. Germany whose dreams were destroyed, decided to seize Europe and World War II started. Germans did not forget the Jews that went back on them by agreement with the British. 400 thousand Jews of Semitic origin were able to escape from Germany. Nazis carried out the largest genocide in world history and approximately five million Jews of Ashkenaz origin were massacred. (You can find documentary photos about Holocaust in the NoWar page). In addition to this massacre, around 500 thousand gypsies were killed.

After the war, German officers who carried out massacres fled to various countries of the world. Those who had settled in Egypt, lead to the spread and entrenchment of anti-Semitism in the Islamic world. German officers who became Muslim and took the name of Muslim established close relationships with the Egyptian government and formed a lobby.

However, Colonel Anwar Sadat published a letter praising Hitler through the effort of this lobby. They established the Institute for the Study of Zionism in Cairo in 1955. The directors of the Institute were Alfred Zingler who took the name of Muhammed Salih, and Dr. Johannes Von Leers who took the name of Umar Amin, who worked in the Goebel’s propaganda service.

Their two assistants were Dr. Werner Witschale and Hans Appler (Salih Safar) who translated Hitler’s book “Mein Kampf” to Arabic. In 1957, there were about two thousand former Nazi officers in Egypt. Chief of the Gestapo’s Jewish Department Erich Altern (Ali Bella) played a very important role in the establishment of the Palestinian camps and the education of Palestinian militants. Indeed, the Palestine Liberation Organization’s philosophy and organizational structure were born traces of Nazi theory.

Reinhard Gehlen, President of the German Military Intelligence, was one of the most important figures in the creation of the new world after World War II. When he saw that Germany would be defeated and the Russians could have control all over Europe, he surrendered to the Americans in 1944. The importance of the documentation against the Russians, he kept in the Alps, was understood later. He restructured the U.S. Military Intelligence Service known as the OSS and formed the CIA.

While Gehlen on the hand was reconfiguring the CIA and the intelligence services of NATO countries such as Turkiye, on the other hand, he also prevented the deciphering of Nazi SS (ODESSA Organization) which was spread to the Islamic world. Gehlen organization played an important role in the establishment of Muhabarat organizations in Arabic countries, especially Syria and Iraq, in the employment of Nazi German scientists in Turkiye and Pakistan, and in the development of the arms industry in these countries. Although not our subject, let us note here that Nazi officers who spread to South American countries such as Argentina, Chile, Nicaragua, and El Salvador laid the foundations of the opposition to the United States.

The most significant work of Nazi officers affecting the entire Muslim world was on the Muslim Brotherhood Organization. The Muslim Brotherhood was extremely moderate in the period of Hassan Al-Banna, the founder of this organization. Nazi proselytes also played a crucial role both in the murder of Banna by the Egyptian Intelligence Service in 1949 and in the radicalization of the Muslim Brotherhood after Banna.

In 1952, the Muslim Brotherhood-led the people’s movement against the British. With the coming to power of Nasser, former Nazi officers assumed counseling-position of many important roles in the government and army.

Both the Gehlen School in the CIA and Nazi proselytes in the Islamic world believed that is very important to establish close relationships with Islamic groups both in the Middle East as well as the Soviet Union and in Asia. Therefore, the German officers contributed greatly to the development of Islamist ideology and movements. However, Dr. Aribert Ferdinand Heim who is deciphered shortly before his death in Egypt had made a great effort to develop Radical Islamism. He learned Arabic and Quran and he had an important place as an educated Muslim.[11] Dr. Death’s son confessed in a letter that they had killed Ashkenazi Jews in Holocaust.

One of their most important works of Gehlen, while working in the CIA, was Sayyid Qutb who was studying in the United States between 1949 and 1951. Qutb with his books published after his return to Egypt has led to the radicalization of not only the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt but also the Islamist movements in all Islamic countries.

The Germans have not cut off communication today with the radical Islamist movements, from the past. While the United States was in the progress of the Green Belt Project, the Germans formed a German School among the Islamic movements. National Vision Movement in Turkey and similar groups in Tunisia, Algeria, and Egypt have followed German Schools.

However, after the reunification of the two Germanys in 1989, the revitalization of this school was accelerated. The Germans have developed their relations with Shiite movements alongside Sunni groups. Rafsanjani Team in Iran was the representative of the German school. After Khomeini, Iran Intelligence Service was restructured by Germany. The highest level of security and intelligence agreements were carried out between Iran and German governments.[12] German BND Organization was the best deal of western intelligence services with Hezbollah in Lebanon. Germany on one hand was developing the capacity of Iraq’s chemical weapons, while on the other hand made significant contributions to the industrialization of Iran. Siemens started to build the first nuclear power plant of Iran.

If we give a few significant examples about this subject, we can say that the Islamist groups which carried out September 11 attacks, had organized from ODESSA School. Mohammed Atta, the leader of the Group, had studied in Germany for a while. Hitler’s Mein Kampf was translated into all Islamic countries and records were broken. In its prints in Turkey, Hitler’s remarks against the Turks were censored.

When the state of Israel was established in 1948, Kirkuk – Haifa oil pipeline was closed. Thereupon in 1952, Kirkuk – Sidon (Lebanon) and Kirkuk – Tartus (Syria) oil pipelines were installed, but could not get the expected benefits due to the cold war.

Why did we recall these issues? On the basis of hostility between Muslims and Jews, There have been the United Kingdom’s regional interests and Germany’s historical goals. The United States and Israel are riding for a fall by continuing this war, it will not end.

Netanyahu’s government wants to create a Kurdish state in the Middle East and develops relationships that can lead to the disintegration of Turkiye. Many politicians of Ashkenaz origin in Europe support the Kurdistan Idea and defend that “the Kurds oppressed by Iran, Syria, and Turkey for years”. Rothschild Group announced it would buy the Kurdish Oil Company last month. Kirkuk – Israel Pipeline Project which was announced by the United States Administration during Iraq War in 2003 is still on the agenda. Salafist Iraq Plain under the control of CIA & MI6 is growing. In this context, the strategies based on war will result in a fiasco like in Vietnam, Iran, Afghanistan, and Iraq.

Israel is literally throwing gasoline on the fire by attacking the Gaza Strip in Islam’s holy month of Ramadan. We think that is a part of a large strategic plan. Israel is provoking the Islamist groups in the region to attack her. However, Nusra Front has announced that they will start to attack Israel in the next few days. Israel can spread her occupation to Kunaytra and some Syrian lands.

Israel’s works and plans which can affect Turkiye will be a great betrayal against the Turkish nation. Ashkenazy should be violently opposed to these policies. Palestine Authority and Hamas must accept that there have been right to life of Jews as there as in the region. Jerusalem should be a peaceful city for Muslims, Jews, and Christians.

Otherwise, the instability in the Middle East can cause a big war and nuclear weapons will be used. Countries will be divided, and true peace will never come to the region.

Humanity did not win anything from religious wars for hundreds of years. Muslim – Jewish hostility will never bring peace to anyone. Religion or ideology which accords the right to life for only itself is ignorance and radicalism.

  1. Ashkenaz was first associated with the Scythian region, then later with the Slavic territories,[1] and, from the 11th century onwards, with Germany and northern Europe.

    His name is related to the Assyrian Aškūza (Aškuzai, Iškuzai), **a people who expelled the Cimmerians ** from the Armenian highland of the Upper Euphrates area.[2]

    Interestingly enough: Lion heraldry…

    Lion refers also to a Judeo-Christian symbolism. The Lion of Judah stands in the coat of arms of Jerusalem.
    The lion as a heraldic charge is present from the very earliest development of heraldry in the 12th century. One of the earliest known examples of armory as it subsequently came to be practiced can be seen on the tomb of Geoffrey Plantagenet, Count of Anjou, who died in 1151.[5]

    This time all of the Scythians belong to R1b, while one of the Sarmatians belongs to R1a.

    • Genetic origins and legacy of the Scythians and Sarmatians

      Nature Communications has a new paleogenetic paper focusing on Iron Age steppe nomads. Emphasis is mine:

      Abstract: During the 1st millennium before the Common Era (BCE), nomadic tribes associated with the Iron Age Scythian culture spread over the Eurasian Steppe, covering a territory of more than 3,500 km in breadth. To understand the demographic processes behind the spread of the Scythian culture, we analysed genomic data from eight individuals and a mitochondrial dataset of 96 individuals originating in eastern and western parts of the Eurasian Steppe. Genomic inference reveals that Scythians in the east and the west of the steppe zone can best be described as a mixture of Yamnaya-related ancestry and an East Asian component. Demographic modelling suggests independent origins for eastern and western groups with ongoing gene-flow between them, plausibly explaining the striking uniformity of their material culture. We also find evidence that significant gene-flow from east to west Eurasia must have occurred early during the Iron Age.

      See also Yamnaya Culture on wiki.

      Best wishes.

  2. THE UGLY SIDE OF SMUGLY – ARRANT PRIDE

    That little stipulation in the Balfour Declaration essentially to declare a nation of Israel, states “it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine” which of course is being rent asunder in a rather manic manipulation of the terms. Chaos was assured reminding one of John Milton who said, “Pandemonium is the Palace of Satan.” Given an inch the Zionists conjure Shakespeare to decry their actions: “With odd old ends stolen out of Holy Writ; And seem a saint, when most I play the devil.”

    Kinda segues, does it not, into … well, another Shakespeare quote:

    “The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.
    An evil soul producing holy witness
    Is like a villain with a smiling cheek,
    A goodly apple rotten at the heart.
    O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!”

    Surely somehow, some way, there is more to the Holy Land than chaos and pandemonium. Yeah, tell me about it! It being Sunday an’ all.

  3. TWO Important Facts ……..

    The Arabs do Permit the Local Jews but gross majority of Imported Encroachers HAVE To Go Back Home Where They Might NOT Be Welcome Because of Their Noted ” Crimes “” …..

    NO Matter what You Officially Portray but Actually the Turkish Jews are Always in Power and most Military Highups are Jews …… a little replica of Israel Actually Runs Turkey ……..

  4. Article suggests hocaust is real and can not explain why it is banned for many years to say not real. 5 million jews killed or is it exaggerated to 5 from 1-2 million. 911 is suggested to be real and done by radical islamists, just like alleged by all zionist who celebrated afterwards. Nusra wants to attack Israel but nusra is also known to be supported by them.
    Majority of the Jews are not semite and they are Turkish origin and this is the only corect thing in this article.

    • Do remember that Dr. Manaz is writing in Turkey and is a recognized scholar there. You will seldom see unconventional viewpoints.

      Manaz makes points, for sure, but he is all an excellent source for Turkish conventional though, which is more important still.

  5. My Grandmother, born in 1905, simply hated Jews. According to my Father, my Grandfather ran book for, as my Dad put it, ‘Rich Jews’. Dad said that my Grandfather only bet on races that he knew were fixed. These are some of the stereotypical prejudices I grew up with from my Polish/German side of the family. How can you not be a bit secluded and closed mouthed as the Jewish Community became or simply evolved into when surrounded by dislike. Certainly every Jew is not an Insane Criminal Elite Deep State Ruler. This is an interesting Article in light of current events. As Lyell once said the present is the key to the past. Or, perhaps the other way around. Somehow I have a strong
    hankering for a really good Bagel.

  6. with regard the 5 million jews killed in the holocaust i remember reading some years ago, that there were only 3.6 million jews in all of europe during the period of ww2..
