Summary
This article argues that Israel's 1950 Law of Return, as amended in 1970, recognizes converts as fully Jewish, which defeats the claim that Ashkenazi Jews are 'fake Jews' descended from Khazar converts. It traces conversion through mikveh, circumcision and acceptance of Torah from Abraham, Moses and Ruth through the Talmud, the Khazar conversion and modern cases. It concludes that rejecting converts rejects Torah's 'one law' for the stranger and amounts to antisemitism.
