Look out for Russian Psy-Ops: Khazarian mafia

Excerpt from Wikipedia:

Use in antisemitic polemic

According to Michael Barkun, while the Khazar hypothesis never played any major role in anti-Semitism generally,[240] it has exercised a noticeable influence on American antisemites since the restrictions on immigration in the 1920s.[note 110][note 111] Maurice Fishberg and Roland B. Dixon's works were later exploited in racist and religious polemical literature in both Britain, in British Israelism, and the United States.[212][note 112] Particularly after the publication of Burton J. Hendrick's The Jews in America (1923)[241] it began to enjoy a vogue among advocates of immigration restriction in the 1920s; racial theorists[242] like Lothrop Stoddard; antisemitic conspiracy-theorists like the Ku Klux Klan's Hiram Wesley Evans; a certain type of anti-communist polemicist like John O. Beaty[note 113] and Wilmot Robertson, whose views influenced David Duke.[243] According to Yehoshafat Harkabi (1968) and others,[note 114] it played a role in Arab anti-Zionist polemics, and took on an antisemitic edge. Bernard Lewis, noting in 1987 that Arab scholars had dropped it, remarked that it only occasionally emerged in Arab political discourse.[note 115] It has also played some role in Soviet antisemitic chauvinism[note 116] and Slavic Eurasian historiography; particularly, in the works of scholars like Lev Gumilev,[245] it came to be exploited by the white supremacist Christian Identity movement[246] and even by terrorist esoteric cults like Aum Shinrikyō.[247] The Kazar hypothesis was further exploited by esoteric fascists such as Miguel Serrano, referring to a lost Palestinabuch by the German Nazi-scholar Herman Wirth, who is said to have proven that the Jews descended from a prehistoric migrant group parasiting on the Great Civilizations.[248] The idea has been supported by the British conspiracy theorist David Icke, who states that the Israelians falsely claim to be descendants of the Biblical Jews.[249]
