If you bothered to read rosends, he actually did answer your question if you actually bothered to try comprehending it.

As is the case, in a related topic which I answered, you completely perverted what I said to come to the opposite conclusion of what I was saying.

Therefore, I will try again.
Ashkenazi Jews are called that because Ashkenaz was and old word for Gemany. It does NOT mean that Ashkenazi Jews are descended from the original Ashkenaz in the bible as you attempted to conclude from what I said originally.
It rather means that the Jews originally came from the geographical area of Germany much like the Sephardi Jews came from the geographical area of Spain. Similarly, Ashkenazi Jews came from other countries such as France, England, and later in comparitive history, Poland, Hungary, Russia, etc. etc. Ditto for the Sephardi Jews and surrounding countries.
Thus, rosends is correct in saying that it doesn't really have anything to do with actual geographical markings and is more of a cultural identifier.

Therefore, your "suggestion" for the middle east "crisis" to make the Middle East Judenrein (no, I'm not choosing that label unintentially) and send all the Jews to Gemany doesn't make sense since an majority of ashkenazi Jews do not originally come from Germany itself.

And for the record, I know rosends from the now defunct Askme.com forums and can assure you that he is not a spy. (What the he__ does that mean anyways? Are you paranoid or something?)

Update:
You originally wrote:
"Thank you! you have helped me prove two important points. the first being if Jews are descendants of Ashkenaz then therefore they can not be descendents of Abraham and two that Ashkenazi are from Germany therefore they have no claim on Palestinian lands. thanx again! "

My point being was that not only did I not "prove" the first point, but I said the exact opposite.
Jews are not descendants of Ashkenaz.
As to your second point, I also did not prove it. Just because Ashkenazi Jews hail from area of Germany (actually, to be precise, central Europe) that does not mean that they originate there.
Before Jewry was subdivided into two groups there were no Ashkenazic and Sephardic identifiers. If one goes back farther in history, both Sephardic and Ashkenazic Jews hail from the same place.
So, your suggestions are somewhat pointless being that they are based on gross misunderstandings of Jewish history and culture.
Others have give you references that more fully explain this history. I suggest you read it and understand it before coming to ridiculous conclusions and pervert everything I write.

you are very ignorant. the majority of jews in america are ashkenazi. The majority of jews in israel are actual sphardic. do some research before posting your ignorance. not to mention that just because the ashkenazi comes from western europe doesn't mean that israel isn't their homeland.

next you'll be telling black people to go back to africa....loser!

where do you guys come from. to another answer, sphardic jews originate in spain but are in several parts of europe and many north african countries. while there are some in mexico it surely isn't "most".

i don't like people who read half a book and become experts on something.

This is about 60 years too late to be an alternative. There are solutions to the problems in the middle east, but they qualities of leadership that are in short supply.

Most of the Sphardic Jews were assimilated into Mexico.

The ez suffix in Spanish names denotes Jewish heritage. Like Perez Sanchez Diaez

Should Mexico and Germany unite?

well, actually, the jews you refer to are ashkenazi, but not all from ashkenaz, in the same way the sephardic jews aren't actually from sefarad. the words have a cultural meaning which transcends the geographic marker...it has to do with connotation and denotation, but i'll wait while you look up "transcends".

let me know when you're ready.

Here are a few other links, my friend. I think, as far as I know history, you are far off base in a lot of areas. This is just in answer to your inference in your question.
