There is no doubt that they were lying because they feel more attachment to Palestine than the average Jew in Palestine. Today when DNA has confirmed that they are actually 100% European, they insist that they are Hebrew people. But the problem for then is is that DNA is never wrong. I also get irritated when they talk about how they had always lived with the Muslims in peace – but that statement is only partially true – because it only applies to the Jews of Middle Eastern origin such as the Yemeni Jews or Moroccan Jews and so on. The entire Jewish population of the Middle East in 1939 was only 2% of the entire Jewish population of the world and the Ashkenazi in 1939 made up 95% of the Jews of the world. The truth is that there was never a time that the Arabs and the Ashkenazi had ever met before 1882 when the Zionists began to arrive. There is not a single document that anybody can show me that any Jews (white, black or brown) were living in Palestine before 1882.
