Whenever the Ashkenazi were claiming to be the Hebrews, people should have been laughing at them, because it is quite apparent that the Ashkenazi could never be the Hebrews considering the way they look and also considering the fact that everything about them is alien to the Middle East. There is no history of the Ashkenazi having ever set foot anywhere in the Middle East before 1882 when they began to arrive in Palestine. The Ashkenazi are a people of the West and they were completely dependent on the Western governments to help them to remain in Palestine and that is exactly what has happened. Today, America is the biggest protector of these Europeans in Palestine and without American assistance, the entity would have been dissolved a very long time ago.
