You wrote: Hello! A jewish friend of mine takes pride in having anscestors that go back to Palestine what christians would call the time of Jesus. He claims that only a few percent todays jewish people have any roots in that area but are from peoples like the Kazars that converted to judaism in the 8th century. And since semitic means arabic, the majority of todays jews are according to him no semitic at all. That confuses the term anti-semitic for me. Is there any truth to his claims? Please straighten this out for me. /Peace Olof Alexandersson
