The result of the Assyrian invasion of the Kingdom of Israel was that the Assyrians conquered the Kingdom of Israel, leading to the fall of the northern kingdom in 722 BCE. The Assyrians deported many Israelites and resettled other peoples in the region, which significantly diluted the Israelite population. This event ultimately marked the end of the Kingdom of Israel as an independent entity. Therefore, among the options provided, the closest accurate outcome is: The Assyrians conquered the Kingdom of Israel and outlawed Judaism. However, it's worth noting that while the Assyrians did not specifically outlaw Judaism in a comprehensive way, they did lead to significant changes in the religious and cultural landscape of the region.
