Tbh this is a dramatic oversimplification which neglects the later history post-Babylonian. The ten “lost tribes” seem to have assimilated following their dispersal by the Babylonians, though the Samaritans may be a group who successfully remained in the mountains. But that’s not where the history ended.

Following the end of the Babylonian captivity, many Jews returned to Judah (though not all, the modern Iraqi Jews just stayed in Iraq). There, they re-established themselves and Judaism culturally expanded to assimilate neighboring Canaanite cultures. This was particularly amplified during the Hasmonean dynasty, who revolted from the Selucids and forcibly converted many neighboring groups to Judaism (including King Herod’s ancestors).
It is correct to say that Israel is attempting to conquer and settle areas that were never historically Jewish. The Negev, the Sinai, Gaza, South Lebanon. These were never historically Jewish regions. But they were or are being opportunistically seized by the government of Israel.
