David Headley's parents divorced some years after the move to Pakistan.
According to family friends, David Headley's mother was involved in heavy drinking and multiple sexual relationships, and David Headley engaging in the same behavior.
According to Jay Wilson, "Those were the days when girls, weed and whatever were readily available. Daood was not immune to the pleasures of American adolescence."
In 1998, David Headley, then 38, was convicted of conspiring to smuggle heroin into the USA from Pakistan.
He was sentenced to less than two years in jail.
Later he went to Pakistan to conduct undercover surveillance operations for the Drug Enforcement Administration.

In 2002, secret reports, sent between MI5 and the CIA, made clear that the American torturers were using practices which included waterboarding.
On 20 November 2009, Britain's High Court revealed a US memo reporting that Britain's Binyam Mohamed was tortured in the same way as another detainee, Abu Zubaydah, who was subjected to waterboarding and other tortures.
The High Court judges decided not to cover up an August 1, 2002, memo from one Bush administration official (Jay Bybee, of the Department of Justice) to another (John Rizzo, of the CIA).
The memoranda "made clear that the techniques described (in the case of Binyam Mohamed) were those employed against Mr Zubaydah"
Binyam Mohamed says Britain actively colluded in his torture while he was being unlawfully held by the Americans.
Binyam Mohamed has talked of his genitals being cut with a razor blade.
Binyam Mohamed
Britain's Jewish Foreign Secretary, David Miliband, wants to hush things up. Milliband is in charge of MI6.
But, earlier this year, President Obama ordered the publication of material relating to torture.
The British judges decided they could refer to the memo referring to Binyam.
In their latest ruling in Binyam Mohamed's case against the Foreign Office, the judges said: "Of itself, the treatment to which Mr Mohamed was subjected could never properly be described in a democracy as 'a secret' or an 'intelligence secret' or 'a summary of classified intelligence'."
According to the BBC, "on Christmas Day 2007, the Afghan government said it was expelling two high level diplomats, one a British UN political affairs expert, the other, an Irishman and the acting head of the European Union mission." (BBC NEWS 'Great Game' or just misunderstanding?)
A post at this site Cached tells us of the British government link to the terror in Pakistan.
In 2007 Pakistani Intelligence traced the source of much of terror in Pakistan to a 'terrorist' camp in Helmand province in Afghanistan.
The camp was run by Michael Semple and Mervyn Patterson.
Both of these British spooks were ostensibly working with humanitarian organizations.
Following extraordinary intelligence work by ISI, Karzai of Afghanistan and high officials in the Musharraf government exchanged visits which eventually resulted in the arrest and expulsion of Patterson and Semple from Afghanistan.
In December of 2007 Guardian and Independent published stories that were clearly designed to muddle the facts and divert attention away from the real story.
The real story was that these training camps were to create the Pakistan Talibanor Tehreek-e Taliban-e Pakistan (TMP); but why?
If the Taliban were to take over some areas in Pakistan and a part of the capital, then this would provide a sufficient basis for the US to bomb Pakistani nuclear installations and cease their nuclear weapons.
There were serious war plans and military exercises conducted by US forces for this scenario.
"Mysterious airlifting of some Taliban elements from areas of the Pakistan-Afghanistan border linking Waziristan have been reported by several sources and fears are growing that anti-Pakistan TTP terrorists are also being rescued by their “foreign allies” from across the border.
"The unexplained movements of “un-marked” helicopters and aircraft have been reported since the last few days along the Pak-Afghan border and one source claimed that they were being transported to the Eastern Afghanistan.
"Some experts believe that secret allies of the friendly-Talibans took the action in order to secure the militants from an assault in South Waziristan by Pakistani Armed Forces while others believe the secret evacuation was part of a larger deal between some Western States and “good Taliban.”
"The airlifting and evacuation of TTP leaders from South Waziristan coincided with a report by foreign news media or a similar mysterious evacuation of “militants” from South Afghanistan to North Afghanistan.
"An Iranian news site on October 18 reported that the “British Army has been relocating Taliban insurgents from southern Afghanistan to the north by providing transportation means.”
"Quoting diplomats who spoke on condition of anonymity, the Iranian site claimed that insurgents are being airlifted from the southern province of Helmand to the north amid increasing violence in the northern parts of the country.
"The PressTV.com also claimed that “the aircraft used for the transfer have been identified as British Chinook helicopters.”
"The report suggested that the secret operation was being launched under the supervision of Afghan Interior Minister Mohammad Hanif Atmar, who “was still operating under the British guidance.”
"Last week Afghanistan’s Pajhwok news agency reported that “US ambassador scotched speculation that his country was helping terrorists in the north, saying America had nothing to do with the air-dropping of armed men from helicopters in Samangan, Baghlan and Kunduz provinces.”
"At an October 11 news conference in Kabul, President Hamid Karzai had himself claimed that “some unidentified helicopters dropped armed men in the northern provinces at night.”
"According to a Pajhowk news report President Karzai revealed “the government had been receiving evidence of the air-dropping of gunmen from mysterious helicopters in the provinces over the last five months.”
"A comprehensive investigation is underway to determine which country the helicopters belong to; why armed men are being infiltrated into the region; and whether increasing insecurity in the north is linked to it." http://www.pakobserver.net/200910/19/news/topstories16.asp

Viscount Etienne Davignon is, or has been, director of Kissinger Associates and good friend of Henry Kissinger, vice-president of the European Commission, and honorary chairman of Bilderberg.
Reportedly, a witness has named Davignon as a child abuser.

On 11 November 2009, David Cronin, at guardian.co.uk, wrote about Belgian prime minister Herman van Rompuy (Nato's poodle in sheep's clothing.)
Among the points made by Cronin:
1. Van Rompuy has sent more troops and planes to Afghanistan.
2. He has been a strong defender of the stationing of American nuclear weapons on Belgian soil.
3. Jane's Defence Weekly published a report showing that Belgium's military spending is on course to rise 47% between 2007 and 2010.

In 2009, the US may be sending Indonesia's President Yudhoyono a message, in the form of hotel bombs?
America's Heritage Foundation wants the Pentagon to have yet more influence in Indonesia.
According to the Heritage Foundation, "the US should continue with its counterterrorism assistance, continue to build closer military-to-military relations, help with education reform and economic development and move expeditiously to sign the comprehensive partnership agreement with Indonesia proposed earlier this year." (Resilient Indonesia)
According to the Heritage Foundation, Indonesia is of major importance to the US.
"It is the most important country in Southeast Asia by size, strategic location, and democratic values.
"The good sense behind forging a closer US-Indonesia relationship is the same today as it was yesterday.
"If anything, the terrorist attacks should only strengthen American and Indonesian resolve to fully realize the enormous potential in their relationship."
According to Killing Hope: US Military and CIA Interventions Since World War II by William Blum (Indonesia 1957-1958)
"In the early months of 1958, rebellion began to break out in one part of the Indonesian island chain, then another.
"CIA pilots took to the air to carry out bombing and strafing missions in support of the rebels.
"In Washington, Col. Alex Kawilarung, the Indonesian military attache, was persuaded by the Agency to "defect".
"He soon showed up in Indonesia to take charge of the rebel forces...
"Sukarno later claimed that on a Sunday morning in April, a plane bombed a ship in the harbor of the island of Ambon - all those aboard losing their lives - as well as hitting a church, which demolished the building and killed everyone inside.
"He stated that 700 casualties had resulted from this single run.
"On 15 May, a CIA plane bombed the Ambon marketplace, killing a large number of civilians on their way to church on Ascension Thursday...
"Three days later, during another bombing run over Ambon, a CIA pilot, Allen Lawrence Pope, was shot down and captured.
"Thirty years old, from Perrine, Florida, Pope had flown ... in Korea for the Air Force...
"He was to spend four years as a prisoner in Indonesia before Sukarno acceded to a request from Robert Kennedy for his release.
"Pope was captured carrying a set of incriminating documents, including those which established him as a pilot for the US Air Force and the CIA airline CAT...
"On 27 May the pilot and his documents were presented to the world at a news conference, thus contradicting several recent statements by high American officials.

In The Age, (We must not get back in bed with Kopassus - theage.com.au), Dr Damien Kingsbury, head of philosophical, political and international studies at Deakin University, wrote about Moslem militants in Indonesia and their links to the military.
1. Komando Jihad, which became Jemaah Islamiah - was set up by (American trained) Indonesian generals.
Dr Kingsbury wrote: "Kopassus (Indonesian special forces)... has engaged in... hostage rescue missions. The first was in 1981, when a Garuda aircraft was hijacked.... Kopassus... set up the Islamic organisation Komando Jihad that hijacked the plane in 1981 and which has since emerged as Jemaah Islamiah."
2.Laskar Jihad - was set up by (American trained) generals.
Jakarta human-rights activist Bonar Naipospos told Asia Times Online:
"General Suparman is one of the generals who was behind the extremist Jihad groups. He set up militias composed of gangsters and religious fanatics to counter student demonstrations in 1998. One of these militias, Pram Swarkasa, became the embryo of Laskar Jihad." (Asia TimesWe must not get back in bed with Kopassus - theage.com.au)

3. Bali bomb 'mastermind' Al Faruq - 'worked for the CIA.'
Former Indonesian State Intelligence Coordinating Board (BAKIN) chief A.C. Manulang was quoted by Tempo magazine as suggesting that Al-Farouq was a CIA-recruited agent.
According to a news story in the Sydney Morning Herald, November 2, 2002:
"Some time around the 30 October 2002, senior officers in the Indonesian military HQ gave a piece of information to a military attache from a Western embassy in Indonesia -the source of explosive used in the October 12 bombing in Bali was the head of the counter-terrorism unit with the army's special forces."
The father-in-law of the officer concerned is Hendropriyono, Indonesia's spy chief.
Kuwaiti citizen OmarAl Faruq was arrested in Bogor on June 5, 2002 and handed over to US authorities. Al Faruq was able to escape from custody.
The airline manifest of Garuda airlines shows that at least two generals from Jakarta visited Bali three days before the bombings and that they returned to Jakarta one day before the Sari Club was blown up. This was confirmed by armed forces chief General Sutarto, who claimed that General Djaja Suparman was on vacation, while General Ryamizard Riyacudu, chief of staff, was said to have gone to Bali for health reasons.

4. Islamic guerrillas in the 1960s - were supported by Britain's MI6
The following is from The Independent (UK):
"Cabinet papers show that British spies, including MI6, supported Islamic guerrillas in order to destabilise Sukarno." (Revealed: Healey admits role in British dirty tricks campaign to overthrow Indonesia's President Sukarno, By Paul Lashmar and James Oliver, The Independent - 16 April 2000) The Secret State: MI5 (The Secret State: MI5 (Home Office/MoD), The Security Service and ...)
"Prior to World War II British Intelligence cultivated ties with the (Muslim) Brotherhood through agent Freya Stark, the British adventurer and writer (A Brutal Friendship - The West and the Arab Elite, Said K. Aburish, 1997) ... The Muslim Brotherhood spread throughout the Muslim world and has evolved into something like a Muslim equivalent of the West's Masonic brotherhood. It became one of the first Islamic Fundamentalist terror organizations...
"According to CIA agent Miles Copeland, the Americans began looking for a Muslim Billy Graham around 1955... When finding or creating a Muslim Billy Graham proved elusive, the CIA began to cooperate with the Muslim Brotherhood, the Muslim mass organization founded in Egypt but with followers throughout the Arab Middle East... This signalled the beginning of an alliance between the traditional regimes and mass Islamic movements against Nasser and other secular forces." (A Brutal Friendship - The West and the Arab Elite)
The CIA was following the example of British Intelligence and sought to use Islam to further its goals. They wanted to find a charismatic religious leader that they could promote and control and they began to cooperate with groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood. With the rise of Nasser the Brotherhood was also courted more seriously by the pro-Western Arab regimes of Saudi Arabia and Jordan. They needed all the popular support that they could muster against the rise of Nasser-inspired Arab nationalism to keep their regimes intact.
The Muslim Brotherhood was an obvious ally against Nasser, because he had abolished it from Egypt after it was involved in a failed assassination attempt on his life in 1954. The Brotherhood rejected Nasser's policy that, for the most part, kept religion out of politics. Officially the Brotherhood was an outlawed organization, but it remained influential and active within Egypt working against the secular regime, often hand-in-hand with British Intelligence. In June of 1955 MI6 was already approaching the Brotherhood in Syria to agitate against the new government that showed strong left-wing tendencies and a desire to merge with Egypt. The Brotherhood became an even more important asset after Nasser announced the Egyptian takeover of the Suez...
In Syria, in 1982, there was a major conflict between the Muslim Brotherhood and the Syrian government at the city of Hamma that resulted in 20,000 casualties. In the aftermath Syria's President Asad revealed that the Muslim Brotherhood forces were armed with US-made equipment...
Israel, forever inclined to back divisive movements, surfaced as another supporter of Islam and began to fund the Muslim Brotherhood and the Palestinian Islamic movement Hamas.
The most noteworthy success of the Islamic movement during this time was of course the overthrow of the Shah ofIran and the installation of the Ayatollah Khomeini as the Islamic dictator. British Intelligence had used their contacts with Iran's mullahs and ayatollahs to help overthrow Mossadegh and install the Shah back in 1953, and these contacts were maintained and used again to overthrow the Shah when his regime fell out of favor."
Bad judges should be sacked if we are not to become a fascist state run by child abusing Nazis?

Innocent men from Britain were tortured by the Americans in Guantanamo.
The men are suing the British spy agencies, and government ministers, for unlawful acts, negligence and conspiracy.
Now a British judge, Mr Justice Silber, has agreed with the spies that "secret government information" can remain hidden from people who are suing them.
On 18 November 2009, "Britain took another lurch towards 'secret' justice ... when it was ruled the State can for the first time withhold evidence from people involved in civil cases.
"The decision means claimants will be left unaware of the evidence the police, Government or security services are using to ruin their name or contest a case for damages.
"Lawyers described Justice Silber's ruling as a 'constitutional outrage' that overturns 'the whole history of the fundamental principle that both sides must be on an equal footing'."
"The judge has sanctioned ... a constitutional outrage, allowing government to rely on secret evidence in the ordinary civil courts …
"(he has done this) by treating the issue as if it was a purely technical legal matter, not a question of overturning the whole history of the common law and the fundamental principle that both sides must be on an equal footing."
Lawyer Irene Nembhard said:
The judgment would "wipe away the right to a jury trial for such claimants bringing such claims".
Clive Stafford Smith, director of the legal charity Reprieve, said:
"When the history books are written, the darkest chapter of our current times will not be torture, but the seeping evil of secrecy, where the 'national interest' is conflated with 'national embarrassment', and ultimately anything of which the government is ashamed, from parliamentary expenses and working up to torture, becomes secret."
Former shadow home secretary David Davis said the latest ruling was part of a 'very, very worrying slippery slope' towards secret hearings.
Amnesty International campaigns director Tim Hancock said: 'This ruling means that alleged complicity by the UK authorities is likely to remain hidden, possibly forever.

Sarkozy cleverly proclaimed his innocence in the French-Taiwan frigate bribery and money laundering affair, accusing French Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin of being behind a political dirty trick.

A new report says that young children are being moved around the UK to be sexually abused at parties. UK children 'trafficked for sex'
The report, Whose Child Now?, is written by Barnardo's.
Lisa Stacey, who wrote the report, told BBC News:
"This is organised sexual abuse and it can often involve the victim being moved from one place to another.
"More than half the victims regularly go missing."
The children are "basically brainwashed," says Stacey.
Wendy Shepherd, the charity's programme manager in north-east England, told BBC News: "If you looked back 10 years, you might come across children on the street who were being exploited.
"Now it's hidden. Networks are involved and they are moving the children around. The abusers use mobile phones and the internet. They groom the children online and then offline."
MOIRA
11-year-old Moira Anderson was last seen boarding a bus in Coatbridge, near Glasgow, Scotland, in 1957.
She was on her way to the shops to buy a box of chocolates for her mum’s birthday.
This dossier may identify the people who kidnapped Moira.
The dossier is said to implicate senior public figures, including senior police officers and members of the Crown Office and former Scottish Office.
These public figures are said to have abused children in Strathclyde (the Glasgow area) during the 1950s and 1960s.
The dossier is said to list vehicles and safe houses used in Glasgow, Monklands and Paisley where children were hidden before being taken to sex parties.
Strathclyde police have decided not to release the dossier.
The dossier was written by James Gallogley, a convicted child-abuser who died in Peterhead prison in 1999.
Sandra Uttley claims that elements of the police were part of a paedophile ring and part of a cover-up.
Uttley said: "There are glaring anomalies in the inquiry, inconsistencies in witness testimony, incorrect information given on oath and the absence of vital witnesses.
"It is also blatantly obvious that Central Scotland Police, who were chosen to investigate the background to the murders, should never have been involved in a so-called independent inquiry. "They were implicated in the events under scrutiny and continually provided Hamilton with renewals of his gun licence despite long-term and repeated warnings that this should not happen.
"It was known that Hamilton had friends in the police force, including one highly placed officer.
"I believe that Hamilton was a major provider of pornographic photographs and videos to a ring of men prominent in Central Scotland, including police officers who protected him from numerous allegations of physical abuse at boys' camps and clubs he ran.
"They protected themselves after the massacre which conveniently ended in his suicide".
In 1873, Gauguin married a Danish woman, Mette Sophie Gad.
In the late 1880s and early 1990s, Gauguin and his followers spent time in Brittany.
Painting by Charles Filiger
A close friend of Gauguin was Charles Filiger whose paintings of farm boys and Christ figures 'attests to his struggle with homosexuality and religion.' (glbtq >> arts >> Symbolists)
In Brittany, Gauguin also painted boys, often naked boys.
In 1885 Paul Gauguin separated from his wife and left his 5 children.
In Paris, in 1887, Paul Gauguin met Vincent van Gogh.
There has been speculation that Vincent felt sexually attracted towards Paul Gauguin.
By 1888, Gauguin and Vincent were living in Arles, in the South of France.
The same year, Vincent's friendship with Paul Gauguin came to a sudden end, and Vincent cut off part of his left ear.
In 1891, Gauguin sailed to the tropics (Tahiti and the Marquesas Islands) to escape "everything that is artificial and conventional."
In 1903, "due to a problem with the church and the government", he was sentenced to three months in prison, and charged a fine. At that time he was being supported by the art dealer Ambroise Vollard[4] He died of syphilis before he could start the prison sentence. His body had been weakened by alcohol and a dissipated life. He was 54 years old.
The miltary's methods have included the use of drugs, hypnosis and sensory deprivation.
It was in 1960 that the first allegations of brainwashing by the UK military were made.
These followed a lecture referring to wartime brainwashing techniques.
The lecture was given by Alexander Kennedy, professor of Psychological Medicine at the University of Edinburgh, who had been in British intelligence during the war.
Prime minister Harold Macmillan said: "The techniques to which these questions refer have never been used by any organisation responsible to Her Majesty's government."
Professor Kennedy died just three months after making his speech.
Three years later, MP Francis Noel-Baker, who had been in military intelligence, wrote the following letter to Mr Macmillan:
"It is within my own personal knowledge, and that of people with whom I served during the war, that a technique of brainwashing certainly was used by Major Kennedy, as he then was, and other interrogators at the Combined Services Detailed Interrogation Centre (CSDIC), outside Cairo, during the last war."
This contradicts the prime minister's denial that such methods were never used by British interrogators.
This is an MK ULTRA victim.
In the National Archives there is a report written by Dick White, who later became head of M16.
It refers interrogation methods that he saw being used by British officers in Cairo during the war.
Professor Kennedy, then Major Kennedy, guided some of these interrogations.
A former senior British intelligence officer, Col John Hughes-Wilson, said: "MacMillan was seeking to deceive. In fact, to use un-Parliamentary language, he was telling lies."
Professor Kennedy was a leading member of the Eugenics Society.
The CIA’s Allen Dulles gave millions of dollars to organizations headed by Cameron.
Cameron carried out experiments on people at several locations in Montreal, mostly at McGill University, St Mary’s Hospital and Allan Memorial Institute.
Cameron used the technique of "psychic driving."
This meant the unsuspecting patients were kept in a drug induced coma for several weeks and given electroshocks, while electronic helmets were strapped to their heads and repetitive auditory messages were transmitted at variable speeds.
Many of those exploited were abused children from the Roman Catholic orphanage system.
"Dr Ewen Cameron, a graduate of Glasgow University, became one of the most eminent psychiatrists in the world.
"His work in Canada in the 1950s was radical and groundbreaking but now some of his patients are finally receiving compensation...
"Cameron subjected his unsuspecting patients to massive electric shocks and a cocktail of powerful drugs in a "brainwashing" programme funded by the CIA."
Project Monarch is part of the CIA's Project MK Ultra which is about mind control.
The original idea for this project came from research carried out by top SS German Nazi scientists (1927-1941) .
The leader of this research was Himmler.
Project MK Ultra was exposed in 1970 due to law suits filed by Canadian survivors and/or their surviving families.
These survivors received the cooperation of Canadian Intelligence individuals and others who uncovered one of the CIA's original mind control research mental health facilities based in Montreal.
The CIA and Canadian government settled the lawsuits out of court.
Josef Mengele, known as "the Angel of Death", was one of the approximately 900 military scientists and medical researchers secretly smuggled into the United States after World War II.
Dr Ewen Cameron's “depatterning” and “psychic driving” destroyed a patient’s personality by repeated shocks up to forty times the intensity considered safe.(http://www.cchr.org/ect/eng/page18.htm)
In the 1950s, the CIA paid Cameron $69,000 to do this as part of their mind control operation code-named MK-ULTRA.
John Marks, author of The Search For The Manchurian Candidate, tells us: "The frequent screams of patients (usually women) that echoed through the hospital did not deter Cameron or most of his associates in their attempts to ‘depattern’ their subjects completely."

6. On 27 February 2008, alleged terrorist Mas Selamat Kastariescapedfrom the Whitley Road Detention Centre, in Singapore.
The detention centre has armed guards, high wire fences and CCTV cameras. Singapore is a country where "security breaches are virtually unheard of",[18][19]
Kastari is the suspected Singapore leader of the Southeast Asian 'terrorist network' Jemaah Islamiyah.
Singapore authorities have alleged that Kastari planned to crash seven bomb-filled trucks at various locations around Singapore.[2]
In January 2006, Kastari was arrested by Indonesian anti-terror squads in Java and deported to Singapore.
He was suspected of plotting to bomb Singapore Changi Airport in 2002,[3] and, according to the Singapore Police Force, he had initially planned to do so by crashing a plane into the airport.[2]
However, Kastari has never been formally charged with any terrorism-related offences;[4] instead, he was detained under the country's Internal Security Act, which allows indefinite detention without trial.[5]

"Imagine my surprise when, in the Scotland section of the Times, a header 'We wish you a merry Christmas (but not in Dundee)'.
"Yes, I did have to read it twice.
"Dundee, the place of my birth, the once thriving centre of industries such as ship building, jute making, Smedleys, Timex, NCR, has finally been consumed by the Righteous brigade and in the first year of an SNP council to boot.
"I've heard of labour councils playing this silly game but it never crossed my mind an SNP council would be so accommodating to the Righteous.
"All references to Christmas have been dropped from the switching-on ceremony, on 27 November, for the city's festive lights and the occasion will be now known as 'Dundee Winter Light Night.'
"Council officials have also decided that rather than a retelling of the Nativity story there will be a disco, a contemporary circus, a continental market and a 7 foot fairy on stilts."
"Yes the SNP in Dundee have been a massive let down.
"Cancelling the hogmany party in the City Square after all the promises before they were elected was disgraceful. And now this nonsense with the winter lights.
"The SNP have been helpless while NCR, Tesco Distribution, Foreman Construction, Waterfront housing projects and many other small businesses have closed or shed jobs.
"If this is the best that the SNP can do then I think many people will desert them.
"I'm now a floating voter and don't see the SNP giving me much to hang onto.
"Independence doesn't look too good if we stay part of the EU so the SNP's slogan of Independence in Europe doesn't appeal to me.

1. Sand’s book is directed against those who assume "that all Jews are descended lineally from the single racial stock of ancient Hebrews – a position no one who has thought for a minute about the history of the Jews would dream of taking."
2. Sand refers to the Khazars, the central Asian kingdom which, around the 10th century, converted to Judaism.
3. Sand relates that, in the 19th and early 20th centuries, Jewish historians wrote about a forced dispersion of the Jews from Israel.
Sand explains that there was no mass forced 'exile' so there can be no 'return'.
Schama writes that "it is a long time since any serious historian argued that following the destruction of the Second Temple, the Romans emptied Judea."
"Sand asserts, correctly, that an unknowable number of Jews remained in what the Romans called Palestina. The multitudes of Jews in Rome had already gone there, not as a response to disaster but because they wanted to and were busy proselytising.
"All this is true..."
4. Schama agrees that "the post-David kingdom of the 10th century BC may have been a pastoral warrior citadel..."
5. As well as Khazar Jews there are Ethiopian Jews and Indian Jews and others.
6. Sand suggests that a home for the Jews could have been in somewhere other than Palestine.
Segev tells us about historian Shlomo Zand (Sand) of Tel Aviv University.
Zand (Sand) has written "When and How Was the Jewish People Invented?" - published by Resling in Hebrew.
According to Zand (Sand):
1. There never was a Jewish people, only a Jewish religion.
2. The exile of the Jews never happened.
The Romans did not generally exile whole nations; most of the Jews were permitted to remain in the country; the number of those who left the country was at most tens of thousands.
3. Most of the Old Testament Bible stories about the Jewish people, including the exodus from Egypt and the conquest under Joshua, are fiction and myth.
4. When the Arabs conquered this area, many of the Jews converted to Islam.
The Palestinian Arabs probably have Jewish origins.
David Ben-Gurion, and others, believed this.
5. There are millions of Jews in the world.
In 1914, in Israel-Palestine, there were 731,000 Arabs but only 60,000 Jews. The Jews were only 7% of the population.
Why, in 1914, were most Jews living in places like Europe and America?
Zand says Jews emigrated from Israel of their own free will.
And many people, outside Israel-Palestine, converted to the Jewish religion.
According to Zand, the Jews in Spain were originally Arabs and Christians who converted to the Jewish religion.
People from the Khazar Kingdom in the Caucasus converted to the Jewish religion and became the first Jews of Ashkenaz (Germany).
6. Zand believes that Israel should be a "state of all its citizens" - Jews, Arabs and others.
