1. Introduction. Ivanka (Trump) Kushner
Ivanka Trump Kushner (born 1981) is the wife of Jared Kushner and daughter of President Donald Trump from his first wife, former model Ivana Trump.
Donald Trump is German (possibly partly Jewish) on the side of his father and Scottish on that of his mother.
The mother of Ivanka, Ivana Marie Trump, was born in Czechoslovakia and is half Czech and half Austrian.
These are all non-Israelite areas but they border Israelite regions and Israelites were settled in those laces before moving onwards.
As we have explained elsewhere it appears that many immigrants to Israelite areas, including the USA, are in effect Israelites who are separating themselves from their non-Israelite surroundings and re-attaching themselves to Israelite stock.
Amos (NKJV) 9:
9 For surely I will command,
And will sift the house of Israel among all nations,
As grain is sifted in a sieve;
Yet not the smallest grain shall fall to the ground.
Ivanka (Trump) Kushner is a well-known personality in her own right, a close friend of Chelsea Clinton, a former model, and businesswoman.
She is also involved in politics, statesmanship, and philanthropy.
Due to her looks, personality, relationship to her father, activities, and numerous well-publicized Media Interviews she has become quite well-known to the general public.
Ivanka converted to Orthodox Judaism in July 2009. The conversion was connected to her involvement with Jared Kushner whom she later married in October 2009.
As of now (October, 2017) the couple have three children, two boys and a girl.
The question was posed on the Quora Forum,
"Has Eretz Israel become the ancestral land of Ivanka Kushner nee Trump?"
This question may have been one of genuine curiosity OR it may alternately (like many other such queries) have been loaded with anti-Israeli anti-Jewish sentiment.
The claim is often made that most Jews are descendants of non-Jewish converts and therefore their ancestors did not come from the Land of Israel and therefore they should all leave and give the area back to the Palestinians.
All these claims are wrong.
In the following article we shall answer some of the claims and questions and also (hopefully) supply additional information of value and interest.
==============================
2. Conversion to Judaism and the Land of Israel
By becoming part of the Jewish People the ancestral Land of Israel is that of Ivanka.
 The Land belongs to God. He gave it to the Israelite nation.
 Included within that nation is any outsider who attaches themselves to them and is accepted by them.
Exodus 12:
 49 One law shall be for the native-born and for the stranger who dwells among you.
==============================
3. Palestinians Also Not Native to Israel and Mostly of Recent Arrival!
Similarly a foreigner who becomes a citizen of the USA partakes of the American Heritage.
 So too, an Egyptian whose parents became Palestinian is considered Palestinian.
 For example:
 A bombing on August 9, 2001, at the Sbarro restaurant in Jerusalem resulted in 15 killed and total casualties of 145.
 The perpetrators were Izzidine al-Din Shuheil al-Masri, and Ahlam Tmimi.
 Al-Masri was killed in the attack while Tamimi now dwells in Jordan and is protected by the Rulers of Jordan.
See:
 Tamimi Who? The Struggle for Justice
 http://hebrewnations.com/articles/zionism/malki/
 # The family name "al-Masri" indicates that the family came from Egypt, probably not that long ago. Many Palestinians are descended from Arabs who came to the land well after the Orthodox Jews and Zionists had begun to seriously return to it. There is nothing wrong in itself with most Palestinians having been recent newcomers, but it is worth noting.] #
Joan Peters, "From Time Immemorial," documents in detail the relatively recent outside origin of many of the so-called Palestinians. No-one seems to be calling upon them to return to Egypt and the other Arab places they came from. Even we are more considerate than that and suggest they be accepted en masse into Bavaria.
=============================
4. An Obligation to Keep the Commandments
Â
 Ivanka Trump may be physically descended from the Ten Tribes or from Jews or she may not.
 Whatever the case she has taken the step of formal obligation.
 By taking upon herself the duty to identify with Israel and keep the commandments Ivanka has become an integral component of what the Jewish people is.
She, like every other Jew, should abide by Torah Law.
If she does so it will be better for everybody. AÂ great reward will follow.
If she does not keep the commandments then she will be liable for the same punishments that every other Jew is liable for.
She has the same rights and the same obligations.
The Ten Tribes on the other hand are not obligated by the commandments though they will be in the future.
So too, the Ten Tribes do not at present have to come to the Land of Israel.
 In the future they will do so and most of the Lands they now dwell in WILL ALSO become part of Israel!
=============================
5. Living in Israel, the Tribes of Israel, and the Stranger who Becomes an Israelite
 The Right to live in Israel is a combination of Ancestry, belonging to the Community,and Keeping the Commandments.
 When an outsider is accepted then the acceptance is not conditional. Everything that accrues to the community also belongs to the single member.
 Living in the Land of Israel should be accompanied by Keeping the Commandments.
At all events,
 The Land of Israel from the Nile to the Euphrates belongs by right to the Tribes of Israel.
This includes the stranger who lives with Israel and identifies with them.
Ezekiel (NKJV) 47:
21 Thus you shall divide this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel. 22 It shall be that you will divide it by lot as an inheritance for yourselves, and for the strangers who dwell among you and who bear children among you. They shall be to you as native-born among the children of Israel; they shall have an inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel. 23 And it shall be that in whatever tribe the stranger dwells, there you shall give him his inheritance, says the LORD God.
============================
6. Living in the Land of Israel Requires Keeping the Commandments
 Ten of the Tribes were lost. Even if individuals from the Ten Tribes are certain of their Israelite ancestry
 they cannot be considered Israelites at present in the full sense of the term.
 They need to identify themselves to a degree that would obligate them to keeping the Laws of Moses i.e. the Jewish Religion.
See:
"The Land of Israel" by Yehonatan Davidiy
 http://www.britam.org/Yehonatan.html
 The benefit of living in the Land of Israel is so great that the Sages said, Someone who dwells in the Land and serves the Almighty is different from someone who does not dwell in the Land.
 "TO GIVE YOU THE LAND OF CANAAN, AND TO BE YOUR GOD" [Leviticus 25:38]: From this verse they deduced, Every Israelite who dwells in the Land of Israel receives upon himself the Yoke of Heaven. Anyone who goes outside the land is as if he worships idols. So too, we find that David said, CURSED BE THEY BEFORE THE LORD; FOR THEY HAVE DRIVEN ME OUT THIS DAY FROM ABIDING IN THE INHERITANCE OF THE LORD, SAYING, GO, SERVE OTHER GODS [1-Samuel 26:19]. Can we imagine David serving other gods? Rather [since David was being forced to leave the land of Israel] David expounded and said that whosoever dwells in the Land of Israel accepts upon himself the Rule of Heaven, and anyone who leaves the Land of Israel is as if they worshipped foreign gods. (Sifrei, Devorim, p. 80).
Re
Leviticus (ESV) 18:
 25 and the land became unclean, so that I punished its iniquity, and the land vomited out its inhabitants.
Nachmanides (1194-1270) commentated on the above verse (extracts):
And it says,
 Leviticus (ESV) 20:
 22 You shall therefore keep all my statutes and all my rules and do them, that the land where I am bringing you to live may not vomit you out.
 Leviticus (ESV) 20:
 24 But I have said to you, You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am the LORD your God, who has separated you from the peoples.
# God separated us from all other peoples who have [only] guardian angels over them.
 God separated us by giving us His land and by He being the only spiritual entity in charge of us [without any intermediary].
 The Land of Israel, which is the inheritance of Almighty God, will vomit out those who pollute it.
 The Land will not tolerate the worshippers of idols, or they who commit severe sexual offences, etc. #
You may ask (as some of the Arabs do), Since the present day Jewish inhabitants do not keep the Torah what right do they have to the Land?
 The answer is that many more than is known do keep the commandments, do learn, and even among though who do not many are basically faithful.
 What is more, it is not the lack of faith is not entirely their fault and they may yet be cured of it.
It may be that for time being it is enough that they have the obligation, do not deny it, and may soon return to keep it.
============================
7. Will the Exiles Repent Only After Their Return?
Ezekiel 11 says that first the exiles will return to the Land of Israel and after that they shall cease their evil practices and keep the Law.
Ezekiel (KJ) 11:
 17 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel. 18 And they shall come thither, and they shall take away all the detestable things thereof and all the abominations thereof from thence. 19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh: 20 That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
The answers to several questions raised by this article may not be known until the future.
Nevertheless the first step is ascertain who the Lost Ten Tribes are and where they are to be mainly located.
That is what Brit-Am/Hebrew Nations endeavors to do.
