Traditional genealogies, according to ancient chronicles of European peoples:

The British, Irish, Scots and Anglo-Saxons, that are commonly considered part of the descent of Gomer and Tiras, trace their own genealogies to Magog, as follows:

An alternative (though legendary) Milesian genealogy passes through Gomer instead of Magog, even though acknowledging a Scythian origin:

Even though these genealogies of European chronicles are legendary and cannot be considered reliable for a serious historic research, they are anyway valid to trace the origins of British, Irish, Scots and Anglo-Saxons to a fully Japhetic origin, certainly Celtic and likely also Scythian. These peoples kept memory of their origins through legends that recall the actual migrations performed by their ancestors from the near East and the Eurasian plains. The presence of Japhetic peoples in the British Isles is proved in ancient times, and there is not the slightest evidence of any alleged relationship with ancient Israelites, as some religious movements claim. There are admittedly phases of Germanic history that are vague; but to suggest that there ever was a time when the Germanic races of all people wished to propagate the view that they were Semitic is truly extraordinary. Anti-Semitism has been an inherent feature of Germanic culture since time immemorial, and to accept such a proposal we would have to fly in the face of all that we know about Saxon and Germanic culture. We would, moreover, have to ignore the fact that there exists not the slightest etymological link between the names recorded in the Germanic/Anglo-Saxon genealogies and any Semitic name.
These "American-Euro-Israelite" movements are indeed anti-Semitic and anti-Jewish, since they pretend to be the true Israel, dispossessing the only genuine Israelites, the Jews. Maybe they undergo a complex of inferiority because of their Japhetic origin? They certainly ignore the Noachic blessing "Let Elohim enlarge Yephet, and let him dwell in the tents of Shem" (Bereshyit 9:26) - notice, it is not Shem to dwell in the tents of Yephet, and is not Shem the one to be enlarged; on the contrary, to Avraham's offspring was given a promised Land in Canaan (not in Europe or America), while Yephet has been enlarged to populate the whole world, and even to dwell in Shem's territory.
