Israelites are the ones God made a circumcision covenant with, which are the generations of Abraham. Ashkenaz are the generations of Gomer. So modern Jews are doing the Stolen Valor thing. I don't think Moses was even circumcised because he was raised by the Pharaoh's daughter, killed a man, yet was still chosen by God to save the Israelites (Bloodline of Abraham). Has nothin to do with the current Land of Israel.
