There was not a single European country that did not consider the European Jews to be a foreign enemy from within always looking for ways to harm the country. They considered them to be such a threat that they were always looking around for a place to get rid of them and unfortunately, Palestine became that place where they would get rid of them. The reason why the European Christians considered the European Jews to be foreigners in their countries was because the people today known as the Ashkenazi used to be known as Khazars and they used to live in what is today Southern Russia and after adopting the religion of Judaism, they went to all countries of Eastern and Western Europe.
