Conservative media personality Candace Owens has sparked yet another controversy with her recent podcast discussion about the origins of the Khazar Khaganate.
In her latest live episode, titled "The Olympics Exposed Brigitte Macron," Owens primarily addressed the controversial depiction of "The Last Supper" in the Olympics opening ceremony and expressed her belief that a satanic cult rules the world. She then encouraged her audience to research their origins, stating that most people "don't know where they come from."
When a follower suggested, "You should look into the Khazars and the origin of the Ashkenazi Jews," Owens responded by claiming that many award-winning historians, including Israelis, assert that "the people inhabiting Israel today are not biblical Jews." She contended that these people are descendants of Khazars who were forced to convert to an "acceptable faith" by Russia and Persia (former Iran) in the 8th century due to immoral behavior, including cheating and "sexual stuff," leading them to convert to Judaism.
Owens then stated that the Khazarian Empire originated in what is now modern Ukraine, emphasizing, "It all goes back to Ukraine." She claimed that despite their conversion, the Khazars – whom she identified as the ancestors of modern Ashkenazi Jews – "carried on their corruption, carried on their sexual deviancy," leading Russia and Persia to "team up and crush the Khazarian Empire." Owens further asserted that, according to a recent theory, the Khazarians are now seeking revenge, suggesting, "Kind of happening right now." She added, "The elite really wants a war with Russia and Iran."
Additionally, Owens linked Sigmund Freud's theory of psychoanalysis to the Kabbalah, claiming it serves as a form of protection for elites who practice pedophilia.
Ben Shapiro, an Ashkenazi Jewish-American and Co-Founder of the right-wing media outlet The Daily Wire, has previously criticized Owens' antisemitic rhetoric as "faux sophistication." Notably, Owens was recently fired from The Daily Wire.
