So you became a communist over the talentless Robeson?
One little quote -
Mr. SCHERER: Why do you not stay in Russia?
Mr. ROBESON: Because my father was a slave, and my people died to build this country, and I am going to stay here, and have a part of it just like you. And no Fascist-minded people will drive me from it. Is that clear? I am for peace with the Soviet Union, and I am for peace with China, and I am not for peace or friendship with the Fascist Franco, and I am not for peace with Fascist Nazi Germans. I am for peace with decent people.
Talentless - rubbish! Where do you get your information?
He rose above vicious colour prejudice to become a star in every field he entered. He loved people - including Welsh miners & Russians & never forgot his family roots - his father was an escaped slave. He was accused of being a communist, his passport was taken away illegally for 8 years during the evil McCarthy era. He survived attempts to sabotage his car.
He was enjoying a visit to post Stalin Russia when all the evidence indicates he was drugged (by the FBI whose files were destroyed) & attempted suicide. He recovered despite 50 shots of electroconvulsive therapy in England. But never resumed his career.

Er...i think you'll find that Winston Churchill, a Conservative, was our Prime Minister in 1944. But please don't let the facts bother you.
And what is this 'international agreement' of the Labour Party of which you speak? If you mean the Balfour Declaration, that was drawn up by a Conservative former Prime Minister who was serving in a predominantly Liberal coalition government (nothing to do with the Labour Party). But, since we are talking about it, let's look at the wording or the Declaration:
"His Majesty's government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country."
100 years on, we are still waiting for the part I've italicized to be honoured...
It's a controversial topic and one which is unfortunately linked by some people to anti-Semitism. Therefore you will find plenty of material (genetic and historical) on the internet both for and against the theory but beware that the stuff in favour has often been hijacked by far-right groupsNever heard that...any support document to read up on?
You were the one who mentioned 1944 not me, so you are best placed to answer your own question. And the League of Nations mandate incorporated the text of the Balfour Declaration in its preamble, including the parts I italicised.Oh, he took over in 1945 but 1944 refers to Israel, I suppose. Is that when the Jews began to fight back against British injustice?
No, I am not referring to the Balfour Declaration. You yourself seem to totally reject that concept, huh? The British had a mandate from the League of Nations, which Labour also ignored. Labour should beg the British government to take all of the people in Gaza and settle them in London and let the Jews have Gaza. It seems that Dubai does not want the Palestinians in their town.
Zechariah 12:2 (KJV) Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah [and] against Jerusalem.

Why are you so obsessed with the British Labour Party in the 1940s?
Ok.... but I’d like some info from a really credible source. The Orthodox Rabbi’s will be my 1st point of contact.It's a controversial topic and one which is unfortunately linked by some people to anti-Semitism.

It's disputed; Wikipedia is a good place to start Khazars - Wikipedia
Something happened to the Khazars; they can't have just vanished. Dispersal among Karaites, Krym Jews and Ashkenazim seems the most likely explanation.
Why do you lot hate Jews?
