The Ashkenazi = 100% European according to their own DNA.
The Arabs = Middle Eastern people.
These two groups of people never knew each other and they never met – that is – until 1882 when a bunch of white European people began to arrive in Palestine claiming to be the Hebrews and yet they have absolutely nothing in common with the people of the Middle East. If anyone refers to these Europeans as European, they get very scared because they would have no way to claim Palestine unless they claim to be the Hebrews.
