program-minimum: the accumulation of initial capital through the capture of the
parasitic economic niches. When they took real power in Khazaria, the Israelites con-
verted it into a state-parasite. Controlling the caravan roads and, primarily, the Great
Silk Route, the Khazar Israelites completely took into their hands the trade between
the West and East, South and North, that is, all trade-routes which passed through
Khazaria. Exactly this was the reason for the Israelites arrival:

th
“ … By the 9 century the Jews, unlike the Khazars, had actively entered the
system of international trade. Caravans that ran from China to the West belonged
th
th
mainly to Jews, and the trade with China in the 8 -9 centuries was the most profita-
ble business. The Tang Dynasty, aiming to fill up the empty treasury because of
enormous expenses spent on the maintenance of the large army, began to export silk,
which became the main object for the Jewish caravans. The route passed through the
steppes of the Uyghur and farther through Semirechye 162 , by Lake Balkhash, to the
Aral Sea, to the city of Urgench. The Ustyurt Plateau was very difficult for transition.
Then the caravans crossed the river of Yaik (now the Ural) and went out to the Volga.
Here the tired travellers could find some rest, abundant food and entertainments.
Wonderful fish and fruits, milk and wine, musicians and beautiful women delighted
tired travellers. Treasures, silks and slaves were accumulated in the hands of Jewish
merchants who controlled the economy of the Volga region. Then the caravans went
further, getting into Western Europe: Bavaria, Languedoc, Provence and, crossing
the Pyrenees, finished a long way away at the Moslem sultanates of Cordoba and

The almost complete control over the caravan routes that passed through Khaza-
ria allowed the Israelites to create a trade monopoly. They began to control the pur-
chase and selling prices. The Judaic “trade cartel” allowed agreement on the prices
between them. As a result of this, both the producers and buyers of commodities
were forced to accept their terms. Naturally, the purchase prices were minimal,
while their selling prices were maximal. As a result of this kind of “trade policy” the
Israelites got super-profits owing to their robbery of both producers and buyers.
Trade turned into a parasitic occupation in the hands of the Israelites. Moreover,
Judaic merchants created their trade settlements in these countries moving with the
merchandise from one country to another, which became their future bases for the
economic enslavement of these countries. Slowly the Israelites began to trickle
through them into the socio-economic systems of the empires and states they were
interested in.

It was exactly they who inculcated corruption everywhere they appeared, cor-
rupting officials by their lavish “gifts” which got them special privileges, which, in
their turn, gave them additional super-profits. Having almost unlimited financial re-
sources, they gave these kind of “gifts” in such quantity that local social parasites

162 Semirechye is also known as Zhetysu meaning “seven rivers”; also transcribed Jetisuw, Jetysu, Jity-su, etc. It
owes its name, meaning "seven rivers" (literally "seven waters") in Kazakh, to the rivers which flow from the south-east
into Lake Balkhash.
