Wrong, Karaites call themselves Jews, and view Karaism as a sect (the original sect, in their view) of Judaism. That's what they've always believed, and what you'll see on any Karaite website or pamphlet.
If they call themselves Jews, why would they call themselves Karaites? Do you know any Karaites? The ones in Israel aren't considered Jews and would have to convert in order to be Jewish. So again, it really doesn't matter what a pamphlet or website says. THEY AREN'T JEWISH. Are you Jewish, ChicagoHebrew?
