#3. "The picture you have of Patton is not Patton"
The URL we referred to should have been:
http://britam.org/HebrewTypes3.html#Recent
This is the second (or third) mistake we have made on this point.
General Patton seems to be causing us some confusion of late.

Your post involved the following matters.
a) The term "Angle"
b) the term Saxon
c) the term anti-semitic
d) "Israelites" being anti-Israelite
e) the mistake automatic assumption of belonging to Israel
f) the probable disqualification of anti-Semites
Answers:
a) a) The term "Angle"
There is no proof that the ethnic name "Angle" derives from "hook"
or
(as others have claimed) the shape of their homeland.
Even if there was some evidence (and there is not) to that effect it
would not necessarily
disallow other interpretations since Ancient Peoples (like modern
ones) interpreted existing
names in terms of words whose meaning they understood at the time
and not according to the original meaning.
The terms "Angle" and "Aegel" were interchangeable in Europe.
In Hebrew "Aegel" could be pronounced as "Angle".
"Aegel" is the name given in the Hebrew Bible (Jeremiah 31:18)
to Ephraim.
"Aegel" means "bull-calf".

#1. Betty Rhodes: The name "Aegel" was common amongst Saxons.

b) the term Saxon
The Scythians, Saxons, and Franks all had weapons named after them.
Peoples gave their name to weapons not vice versa.
See our work "The Tribes" where we prove that the name "Saxon"
is a
form of "Isaac".
c) the term anti-semitic
"Anti-Semitic" means anti-Jewish. The term was coined in Germany
by scientific racist Jew-haters who fancied that it sounded more respectable
than Judeophobes, Jew-haters, or the like.
"Anti-Semitic" has nothing to do with the Semitic Race since Edomites,
Amalekites, Arabs, and so on are in part descended from Shem or speak
a Semitic language yet they frequently hate Jews more than anybody else.
d) "Israelites" being anti-Israelite
A Jew can be anti-Jewish (i.e. anti-Semitic) just as an Englishman
can be anti-English, a German anti-German, etc.
e) the mistake automatic assumption of belonging to Israel
Brit-Am says that the majority of Lost Israelites belong to certain nations
and that a significant proportion of the population of those nations
could be of
Israelite descent. This does not mean that just because someone
belongs to one of
those nations that we can be certain that they are Israelite though
they may well be.
Other Criteria are involved"
See our article on this subject:
http://www.britam.org/criteria.html
f) the probable disqualification of anti-Semites
The Jews are identified as Israelites and maintain Israelite culture, language,
and law.
Someone who is anti-Jewish is by definition also anti-Israelite.
They may still themselves be of Israelite descent but the probability
is lower.
If they are of Israelite descent then they are traitors to the
Israelite nation.

Reply:
For the moment DNA studies cannot be taken as proof of anything
since certain questions remain unanswered.
These studies can however be used as indicators of value in some respects
and this is why we often quote from them.
Some points we have against DNA:
a) internal contradictions
b) obvious influence of environment and sporadic
events such as bursts of radiation etc.
c) time -scales are ten or hundreds of times too great.
d) inter-connections of different haplogroups in some cases may
have to be revised.
