→Why it wouldn't matter anyway
First, most Israelis are not of European decent. Which destroys anti Israel propaganda even per the hoax.

Though Ashkenazi Jews are the largest ethnic group of Jews today, Sephardim (Jews of [[Spain|Spanish]] and North African descent) and Mizrahim (Jews of [[Middle East]]ern descent) make up the majority of the Jewish population in [[Israel]].{{cn}} Furthermore, Israel has become the home of many smaller Jewish ethnic groups, such as [[Ethiopia]]n Jews, Yemenite Jews, and Kaifeng Jews. Since the Khazar myth doesn't address those Jews at all, any use of it to prove that "the Jews" aren't real Jews has significant holes.

Jews are not a “race,” but constitute a people or nation. Traditionally, Jewish texts often refer to the Jewish people as “Israel.”
DNA studies and archaeological evidence show that the Jewish people originated in the Middle East. Owing to Jews’ historical dispersion around the world however, Jews also belong to several Jewish ethnic groups, all of which are represented in the modern state of Israel.
The largest Jewish ethnic group in Israel, about 40% to 45% of the country’s total population, is called Mizrahi, which means “Eastern” in Hebrew. Mizrahi Jews’ ancestors hailed from Jewish communities in the Middle East, including Israel itself.

Furthermore, Judaism has allowed for voluntary conversion through most of its history. Indeed, the great-grandmother of [[King David]], [[Ruth]], was a Moabite convert. Therefore, even if the Ashkenazi were descendants of Khazar converts, they would still be entirely, legitimately Jewish in the eyes of Jewish law.

From the time of the Exodus onward, the Jewish people have incorporated outsiders into their community. As Exodus 12:38 notes, a "mixed multitude" (including non-Israelites) joined the Israelites when they left Egypt - [indeed, they were accepted by Moses as an integral part of the people]. Once individuals undergo formal conversion to Judaism, however, Jewish tradition regards them as fully equal members of the people—no distinction is made between born Jews and righteous converts, who are considered part of the same unified nation.
