""Why would these people not be exposed as phonies?"
And how are you suppose to do this?
Someone can claim that his/her grand grand mother on the mother side from some god forgotten Russia/Ukraine village was a Jew (And that according to the rule that makes that person a Jew). How does you thing Israel would argue that claim?
Like : ”” we know for sure this grand grand mother of yours was catholic?”
Can be embarrassing for the country build on the idea family reunification . There are also much benefits for Israel in close economic ties with Ukraine
And After WWI, revolution,
WWII there is no written records left so everybody can claim to have his Jewish Grandma when he/she sees it convenient
Some people used it to immigrate to Israel or have double citizenship – very nice thing in case you want escape prosecution for financial crimes
