Did the US send a lot of Jews to Israel?
No, at least not from a governmental position. The United States, unlike many countries, has never forcibly deported its Jewish citizens or put them in a social, political, or economic climate where leaving the United States was the only viable option. On the flip side, the United States has never incentivized (monetarily or politically) for American Jews to go to Israel. The only Jews that America assisted to get to Israel were a small minority of Holocaust survivors. Most Holocaust survivors who did get to Israel did so without American assistance. While there are many American Jews in Israel, this is more of a function of how many Jews in the world there are in total after the Holocaust destroyed much of European Jewry. There are larger Israeli communities of Russian, Moroccan, and Iraqi Jews than American Jews.

Are the European Jews descended from the biblical Jews?
Israelis are a Middle Eastern people. This is the proper consideration, especially when you take into account that even the majority of Israeli Jews (ignoring the 20% of Israelis who are ethnic Arabs) are from the Middle East and North Africa. Israel has an ethnic European minority, but that is it, a minority and most of those ethnic Europeans were born in Israel anyway.Some people consider Israelis to be European, but this consideration comes primarily from the patronizing view that Israel's embrace of human rights and democratic norms is a "European" mindset as opposed to a "Middle Eastern" mindset (which is implicitly a theocratic and authoritarian behavior). It is because of Israel's embrace of many of these norms that Israel functions and operates much more like a European country than its Middle Eastern neighbors. However, if this is the definition of European, then Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Singapore are also "European" countries since these countries embrace many of these norms and behave more like European countries than autocratic neighbors like China and North Korea.
