Before arriving in Palestine in 1882 claiming to be the Hebrews, the Arabs and theAshkenazi never met because they had always lived thousands of miles apart! What the Ashkenazi knew about the Middle East was what they read in the books or the bible. But today they consider themselves to be experts on Middle Eastern affairs. They even gave up eating their very own Ashkenazi dishes and began to eat only Arabic foods and they even began to sell Arabic foods in America. The Ashkenazi simply need to admit that they made a mistake when they were claiming to be the Hebrews because they should realize that at 100% European which is always the DNA of the Ashkenazi that the chances that they have ancestry links to the Middle East is zero.
