Well he wasn't entirely correct. For instance M33c may be of Asian origin but it was present in Syria
U3, K1a, N1b, X2, R0a, T1a, T2b, W1, H, H5, J1 and J1c are all known from the ancient Middle East.
Of course, X2, T1a, T2b, J1c, K1a, H, H1, HV, even U3 etc. are also known from Europe.
He claimed all of the Ashkenazi clades were European, it is likely that not all were. Certainly the U5, U4 and V groups are European in origin though. K1a1b is most likely European (known from ancient finds in Spain 6,000 years ago, at least four separate individuals), N1b2 is most likely Middle Eastern, etc.
