1. Ron Fraser: Motto of Wingate
Subject: RE: "Brit-Am Now"-374
Greetings Yair!
Concerning that masterful general, Ord Wingate, I understand that he
adopted a motto which, since learning of it, I have had occasion to
remember and in which, on such occasions, I have found a degree of comfort.
From memory it goes something like this -- "Illegitimati nil carborundum!"
A loose translation being, "don't let the illegitimates wear you down!" I
have avoided that which may be taken as a profanity within the translation,
but I think you get the point.
Keep up the good work.
Ron Fraser
2. David Ben-Ariel: Blessing and Suggestion

Shalom Yair,
Orde Wingate is one of many Christian-Zionists who helped make history,
undoubtedly raised up by God for such a purpose. May you continue to share
with us such encouraging examples that one person can make a difference with
God's blessing upon their efforts, that faith put into practice (works) has
awesome results!
I would encourage Charles Robert to donate his extra copy of The Tribes to
his local library with a prayer that it bless and serve others.
Some Brit-Am Israelites may consider, if they can afford it, to purchase
copies for their local libraries or at least request their library purchase
such books to benefit all and hasten the process of redemption by further
restoring our Hebrew roots.
Kol tov,
David Ben-Ariel

Subject: [origin of nations] The U.S. Global Empire
Reply-to: origin@yahoogroups.com
America has been blessed more than any nation in history. This article is
interesting as it shows the extent of American influence in the world. The
American Empire is the greatest empire the world has known. Sadly, this
empire is about to collapse, as punishment for the rejection of God's Laws.

The U.S. Global Empire
by <mailto:vancepub@juno.com>Laurence M. Vance
by Laurence M. Vance
There is a new empire in town, and its global presence is increasing every day.
The kingdom of Alexander the Great reached all the way to the borders of
India. The Roman Empire controlled the Celtic regions of Northern Europe
and all of the Hellenized states that bordered the Mediterranean. The
Mongol Empire, which was the largest contiguous empire in history,
stretched from Southeast Asia to Europe. The Byzantine Empire spanned the
years 395 to 1453. In the sixteenth century, the Ottoman Empire stretched
from the Persian Gulf in the east to Hungary in the northwest; and from
Egypt in the south to the Caucasus in the north. At the height of its
dominion, the British Empire included almost a quarter of the world's
population.
Nothing, however, compares to the U.S. global empire. What makes U.S.
hegemony unique is that it consists, not of control over great land masses
or population centers, but of a global presence unlike that of any other
country in history.
The extent of the U.S. global empire is almost incalculable. The latest
"<http://www.defenselink.mil/news/Jun2003/basestructure2003.pdf>Base
Structure Report" of the Department of Defense states that the Department's
physical assets consist of "more than 600,000 individual buildings and
structures, at more than 6,000 locations, on more than 30 million acres."
The exact number of locations is then given as 6,702 - divided into large
installations (115), medium installations (115), and small
installations/locations (6,472). This classification can be deceiving,
however, because installations are only classified as small if they have a
Plant Replacement Value (PRV) of less than $800 million.
Although most of these locations are in the continental United States, 96
of them are in U.S. territories around the globe, and 702 of them are in
foreign countries. But as
<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0805070044/lewrockwell/>Chalmers
Johnson has
<http://www.nationinstitute.org/tomdispatch/index.mhtml?pid=1181>documented,
the figure of 702 foreign military installations is too low, for it does
not include installations in Afghanistan, Iraq, Israel, Kosovo, Kuwait,
Kyrgyzstan, Qatar, and Uzbekistan. Johnson estimates that an honest count
would be closer to 1,000.
The number of countries that the United States has a presence in is
staggering. According the U.S. Department of State's list of
"<http://www.state.gov/s/inr/rls/4250.htm>Independent States in the World,"
there are 192 countries in the world, all of which, except Bhutan, Cuba,
Iran, and North Korea, have diplomatic relations with the United States.
All of these countries except one (Vatican City) are members of the
<http://www.un.org/Overview/unmember.html>United Nations. According to the
Department of Defense publication,
"<http://www.dior.whs.mil/mmid/M05/hst0309.pdf>Active Duty Military
Personnel Strengths by Regional Area and by Country," the United States has
troops in 135 countries. Here is the list:
Afghanistan

This means that the United States has troops in 70 percent of the world's
countries. The average American could probably not locate half of these 135
countries on a map.
To this list could be added regions like the Indian Ocean territory of
Diego Garcia, Gibraltar, and the Atlantic Ocean island of St. Helena, all
still controlled by Great Britain, but not considered sovereign countries.
Greenland is also home to U.S. troops, but is technically part of Denmark.
Troops in two other regions, Kosovo and Hong Kong, might also be included
here, but the DOD's "Personnel Strengths" document includes U.S. troops in
Kosovo under Serbia and U.S. troops in Hong Kong under China.
Possessions of the United States like Guam, Johnston Atoll, Puerto Rico,
the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, and the Virgin Islands are
likewise home to U.S. troops. Guam has over 3,200.
Regular troop strength ranges from a low of 1 in Malawi to a high of 74,796
in Germany. At the time the most recent "Personnel Strengths" was released
by the government (September 30, 2003), there were 183,002 troops deployed
to Iraq, an unspecified number of which came from U.S. forces in Germany
and Italy. The total number of troops deployed abroad as of that date was
252,764, not including U.S. troops in Iraq from the United States. Total
military personnel on September 30, 2003, was 1,434,377. This means that
17.6 percent of U.S. military forces were deployed on foreign soil, and
certainly over 25 percent if U.S. troops in Iraq from the United States
were included. But regardless of how many troops we have in each country,
having troops in 135 countries is 135 countries too many.
The U. S. global empire - an empire that Alexander the Great, Caesar
Augustus, Genghis Khan, Suleiman the Magnificent, Justinian, and King
George V would be proud of.
