      my tatar brother, i would love for you to read what I wrote, if you want I can write it to you instead, I am part crimean karaite, crimean karaites are not from israel, they are turkic people, on the official crimean karaite website, they state that crimean karaim descend from huns, khazars, mongols, tatars, cumans and crimean goths. Alot of them look asian and there religion is not close to regular karaism, it is now more related to tengrism and they even call God "Tiengri" they have khazar vocab in the language as well, they have many turkic features, when I was a baby i even used to look asian, now i have a crimean tatar look, but I can confirm crimean karaites are turkic. one more thing i should point out, from what ive seen from my dna, full crimean karaites have more asian dna than the average crimean tatar which are mountain crimean tatars, and maybe even steppe crimean tatars, I believe this is because in judaism, it is forbidden to mix with non jews, so they kept and mixed with eachother, and this may be why they are more asian than most crimean tatars, but it does not matter, we are still both turkic and we live in the same place, me and you are both crimean tatars. we are brothers along with other tatars and turkic peoples

    Being a recognized Crimean Karaite, as my ancestors before me, while still living in Ukraine, I do have something to note:
    The Christianization of Crimean Karaites was actually sparked by Seraya Shapshal, the ancestor of current All-Ukrainian Organization of Crimean Karaites leader Vladimir Ormeli, who claimed Crimean Karaites were of Khazarian origin (which already has been disproven), and has been noted here in Ukraine in most Jewish communities, not just Karaite, as primary reason of the dejudaization of Crimean Karaites. As Seraya Shapshal was the leader of the Crimean Karaite community from 1911 to 1945, he was able to put a lot of changes into place, like banning the teaching of the Hebrew language, that eventually led to many Crimean Karaites being indoctrinated to deny their Jewish heritage, as well as the turkification of Crimean Karaites (Shapshal was a fierce supporter of turkification, hence also his support to the [disproven] claims of Crimean Karaites originating from the Khazars). He was actually helped in doing so by the deportation that the Nazis and Soviets did around the time of the Second World War, as Crimean Karaites were forced to deny their Jewish heritage regardless at that moment, most of those who did not have been killed by the Nazis and Soviets...
    After the Second World War, the Crimean Karaite community actually fell apart, as the ideas of Shapshal were continued by those which were high-placed in the community and caused many Crimean Karaites to convert to Christianity, causing segregation between Crimean Karaites, and eventually those who wished to remain Jewish mostly moved away from Crimea, like in case of my grandparents, they moved to Poland and to Canada. And basically, today's Crimean Karaite community is no longer what it used to be, which is not that weird seeing that our leader is a descendant of Shapshal, as well that he opposes Ukraine and support Russia instead...
    As for the location of a Jewish Crimean Karaite community, there is none anymore, caused by the invasion of Crimea by Russia. However, if you want to meet Crimean Karaites, you will need to visit mainland Ukraine, and not Crimea, as since the invasion of Crimea by Russia in 2014, most of the remaining Jewish Crimean Karaites have left Crimea. The same applies for the other Jewish-Crimean community, the Krymchaks. I know other Crimean Karaites, as well Krymchaks, who visit the Menorah Center here in Dnipro, mostly living in the Dnipro, Zaporizhia, and Kherson Oblasts, although I did meet an elderly still Jewish Crimean Karaite who lives/lived in Lutsk. There is also a small Karaite (not Crimean) community in Kharkiv, they maintain also the Kenesa in Kharkiv, one of the few, if not the only, Kenesa which is still maintained fully by the Karaite community.

    • @cheese9812

      The descendants of Karaite Jews are the Israelites of the Bible. They are mongolic tribes. It was common in the 13th century that the Tartars were known to be remnants of the Israelites. 'Tartary' means 'remnant' in hebrew. The Bible is essentially a Tartar book. Thats why the Israelites were nomadic, had shepherds, verses on setting up tents, and Eastern Tartary had a lot of covenant of the arks. The Israelites lost their way and turned it into an idol..
      They are lying to us about our past. Best to do our own research. God Bless.

      Yukirby OK, I’ll take you up on that. I’m a Palestinian in the diaspora. My family is from Jerusalem but my parents were literally on vacation during the Six Day War and Israel wouldn’t allow them to return. What are your thoughts on Israel’s residency and nationality laws? I’m genuinely curious about your opinion and happy to engage in a civil conversation.

    • @yukirby3741
      @yukirby3741 6 років тому

    • @michaelalexander3078
      @michaelalexander3078 6 років тому +1

      Yukirby Three separate laws apply to my family, the 1952 nationality law, the Jerusalem residency law for Palestinians and the property law. Since you brought up the right of return/Jewish nationality law I guess that one too. In essence, because they weren’t there for that week we’ve been forbidden from ever living in Jerusalem. So, I have family in Nazareth, in Jerusalem, in Beit Hanina, in Ramallah, Jordan and the US. None of us or our children who weren’t in Jerusalem that week will ever be able to return. But Jewish people from anywhere can return and automatically be made citizens.

    • @yukirby3741
      @yukirby3741 6 років тому

      Let's Break it down one law at a time:
      Nationality Law - I don't see any problem with it
      Right of Return - I understand the reasoning behind this law, but I think its racist unfair, and unrealistic. In my view, this land belongs to Jews and Palestinians - and if a DNA test finds another people group whos origins are in Israel (such as Canaanites) this land should belong to them aswell.
      Property Law - If this is about the settlements, I understand why people live there, as it was once part of the Kingdom of Israel, and such people want this land to be a part of modern Israel aswell. I think they do have a right to exist, but not promoted (as the situation is tense enough). For me, just as there are arab settlements in Israel, the future Palestinian state (if it will be founded) should have those settlements under their administrations and not as exclaves of Israel.
      Didn't find out about the Jerusalem residency law you mentioned, so please send me a link. Also, I might've mistakes with the laws I wrote about, as I had to translate those from English to Hebrew to be fully sure about what you meant. Also I have a question to you, would you like to become an Israeli / palestinian citizen, and if you'd like to visit Israel.

Also the name of the village in 4:04 stems from Tsifut meaning tight with money, cheap in Turkish, not Jew.

    Karaite Judaism actually More about Spirituality. They do not wear Tefillin and put Mezuzah on their door. it it more about mentally loving the Lord with all your heart, soul, and mind. They also doesn't light canddles during shabbat nor do they separate milk and meat. because it states in Moses law "do not cook Young in their mother's milk." it doesn't mean you can't consume milk and meat. also they reject the Oral Laws because God gave Jews written Commandments.

      Seems like Anton wants to confuse readers into believing disproved obsolete notions such as the claim that `Anan b. Dawid (OBM) founded the Qaraite movement, which has been disproved by competent scholarship; both the Ananites and Qaraites continued to exist in parallel through the 9th century since the earlty 9th.

      Also karaite Jews have more strict laws than orthadox in some ways, like we don't eat rabbinic kosher only karaite kosher which is rare we don't slaughter animals who are pregnant and it must be all four signs rather than a minimum of two. Some karaites believe chicken is not kosher. And so on and so forth

      Anton Chigurh lmao from the paragraph directly after your quote: “The children of these errant people and their grandchildren whose parents led them away and they were born among these Karaities and raised according to their conception, they are considered as a children captured and raised by them. Such a child may not be eager to follow the path of mitzvot, for it is as if he was compelled not to. Even if later, he hears that he is Jewish and saw Jews and their faith, he is still considered as one who was compelled against observance, for he was raised according to their mistaken path. This applies to those who we mentioned who follow the erroneous Karaite path of their ancestors. Therefore it is appropriate to motivate them to repent and draw them to the power of the Torah with words of peace.”
