Brit-Am Now no.1893
Ten out of the Twelve Tribes of Israel were exiled and lost their identity. Their descendants are now to be found amongst Western Peoples. They are the Lost Ten Tribes. This is proven from the Bible, Talmud, and Rabbinical Sources as well as from Secular Studies in Ancient History, Archaeology, Mythology, Linguistics, and related fields.
In the notes below we bring news, queries, and updates related to these issues.This is a service provided by Brit-Am, Movement of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel.

Dear Reader:
We write to request your financial support for Brit-Am/Hebrew Nations, the
Movement we formally founded in 1995 (though it had actually begun before then)
to prove and spread knowledge of the Israelite Ancestry of Peoples in the West
and to Promote Reconciliation between them and the Jews of Judah.
U.S. and U.K. interests in the Middle East and the world should be those of
Israelite Nations in general.
The State of Israel should be encouraged to settle Jews wherever possible in the
Land of Israel.
All Israelite Nations should be encouraged to return to Biblical Values.
Learning the Bible needs to be encouraged.
These aims are not just desirable goals but vital ones. Our survival could
depend upon them. Times have changed. There may not be that much time left. This
knowledge needs to be made known and the practical applications we recommend
need to be adopted.
Brit-Am/Hebrew Nations does what it can. Relatively speaking with what we have
we often merit to do much.
We however are the same as everybody else; we need to function and this requires
funding.
We believe that the work of Brit-Am/Hebrew Nations is in accordance with Divine
Will.
Whosoever aids us will be blessed.
Providence has so decided that we are in need of your contributions.
God be with you,
Yair Davidiy
2. Google Gaggle Continues. No
Explanation has been received.
Recently we had a question about Sinim. On our web-site we have several
articles concerning Sinim and Australia. The articles by Dafyd and by Yair
Davidiy are not bad. They also contain historical references not found
elsewhere. We illustrate our point with valuable Bible Code analysis. Our point
of view is respected by other researchers even when they disagree with us they
make references to our article. On Yahoo an entry for Sinim gives two results on
the first page, one in the fifth place and the other in the tenth.
Our YouTube video clip on the subject of Sinim is on the second page of Yahoo
Search Results.
For Google under the entry Sinim we are not on the first page, nor on the 2nd,
3rd, 4th, or 5th and probably not anywhere else!
The figures for Yahoo are probably repeated by all the other Search Engines.
Only Google ignores us but Google accounts for ca. 80% of the traffic.
It appears that the Google blacklisting of Brit-Am may extend beyond our
web-site and be directed at Brit-Am in general.
A recent incident involving Brit-Am and Google has led us to suspect homosexual
activists in Google to be behind the anti-Brit-Am attitude.
3. Brit-Am Statistics. New Revelations.
Lies, damned lies, and statistics
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Lies, damned lies, and statistics" - Benjamin Disraeli.
Mark Twain popularized the saying in "Chapters from My Autobiography", published in the North American Review in 1906. "Figures often beguile me," he wrote, "particularly when I have the arranging of them myself; in which case the remark attributed to Disraeli would often apply with justice and force: 'There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.'"
In the past we were under the impression that the number of those visiting our web-site was much higher than it actually was.
This mistake was not really our fault since we were relying on a service provided by our Server which we misunderstood.
In addition the number of our subscribers was also estimated to be slightly higher than it actually was.
Below are the updated figures according to what we know. These too may also turn out to be mistaken.
Nevertheless these figures are what we now have; they are probably more or less correct; they are of interest.
(a) Total Number of Subscribers to Brit-Am e-mail List.
About 1500 (less than had been previously supposed) receive a copy ofd
each Brit-Am message sent out by e-mail.
(b) Visits to our web-site and other
characteristics.
Previously we quoted statistics from the Numerator supplied by our Server.
This would show about 1500 visits per day.
For the month of May 2012 it showed a total of 43,014 visits and 525107 hits.
Recent clarification has shown that these figures are MISLEADING, in part.
They included those who returned several times per day who were numbered as
different visitors and it also included visits from Crawlers of Search Engines
and other monitors.
When we spoke to our Server Technical representatives we were advised in effect
to ignore the total figures but concentrate on relative tendencies.
The tendencies indicate a plunge of ca. 20% possibly as a result of the Google
Gaggle.
We were also advised to accept figures supplied by Google Webmaster Tools and
Google Analytic.
Google Analytic shows that in the period May 18-June 17 2012, our site received
1,355 different visitors.
[We think this is too low, but who knows?]
56% of our visitors are new ones.
43 % are returning visitors.
Average pages per visit 1.54.
56% of our visitors are from the USA, 9% from Israel, 7% from the UK, 4% from
Canada, 3% from Australia, 2% from the Netherlands.
After that came Czech Republic, Norway, South Africa, Switzerland.
Within the USA we had 154 visits from California, 139 from Texas,
Illinios 76
Pennsylvania 76
Florida 64
New York 57
North Carolina 54
Ohio 54
Georgia 52
Kentucky 51
Washington 42
Anyone see a pattern here?
(c) Brit-Am YouTube Viewing.
YouTube is also now owned in effect by Google.
We entered this YouTube business somewhat haphazardly and without putting much
hopes in it.
Nevertheless if the statistics are correct it may show promise.

Analysis:
The Number of YouTube Viewers is higher than visitors to the Web Site.
[I think the number given by Google for visitors to the web site is too low.]
Number of YouTube Viewers also shows a high proportion from the UK which is in
second place. This is heartening since in the past we thought it was very low.
70% of the viewers from the USA are over 45 years old.
83% of the viewers from the Israel are over 45 years old.
In the UK they are somewhat younger but still overwhelmingly more than 35 years
old.
In the USA, Israel, and New Zealand the majority are males.
In the UK it is ca. half male, half female.
In Belgium all 19 viewers were female and all 13 to 17 years old [Maybe it was
the same young girl who came back 19 times?
We have ca. 64 clips, so she looked at 19 of them. I hope it did not affect her
homework!]
20% viewed the clips through embedded clips, possibly all our own britam.org
URLs.
4. Requests to Lower Volume of Background Music on YouTube Clips.
(a) Darda
Yair, i am so blessed listening to your teachings. Thank you. I have read your
books on the lost tribes of Israel...profound!. May i make a suggestion on the u
tube, the music is very nice, and i would love to really hear what you're
teaching with a little more subtle 'background' . just a suggestion..shalom

Thanks. Someone else said the same. In future I shall turn it down a
little more.
Observations like you just made alert as to when improvement is needed.
Without this we probably would never have known.

5. Jackie Bourg: Descendants of Jews
from Majorca Amongst French Canadians.
Shalom Yair Davidiy,
You have listed that France contained the Tribe of Reuben.
I have a valid question for you:
1) "why do you keep refusing to believe that we, the French
Canadians (originally from Southern France) were originally from Spain?
2) Where do you suspect the Jews mentioned in Obadiah disappeared to?
3) Why do you keep ignoring my ancestors who originally came from Spain
and into France during the Inquisition? After all, our surnames are
all translated into Jewish and moreover, we have the J2 Haplo type as
researched with
www.FamilyTree.com/dna
~ I have my maternal ancestral research....and we are
from Majorca Spain....
Why do you suppose we ended up in Southern France during the Inquisition.
With all due respect ..., I would ask you to remove your dark glasses and
smell the smoking gun, that YES, we are lost Jews from Spain. We are Levites,
whether you like it or not. Pls forgive me for sounding this way, but I am very
fed up that NOBODY wants to look into our Jewish heritage. You once told me
that "it was so long ago and that we had mixed with Gentiles that we surely
lost our heritage".
Judaism is very much alive in me...and I arduously fight the good fight of Faith
that we are indeed GOD's Chosen people.
To my knowledge, your book on the Lost Tribes is not complete without us, the
French Jews of "Spain".

7. Esther: (a) Query about the Lost Tribes and Aliyah. Brit-Am Answer.
"Shalom Yair!
I was wondering is any of the ALIYAH officials for Israel are considering The
European Lost Tribes? I am sure there is many of us who would like to "come
home" if they opened the doors for us. Many do not follow Rabbinical Law
(Talmud) but Pure Torah. Most Europeans are under a Patriarch society, so they
would consider the Father's lineage as well as the mother's. But "Papa Bear" is
to be the spiritual Leader of the home. Why is Israel only considering Maternal
rights?"
Brit-Am Reply:
Esther Shalom,
We get questions like this all the time.
It should be clear what Brit-Am does and does not do. We show where the Ten
Tribes went in general thousands or sometimes hundreds of years ago.
We can say with a reasonable degree of confidence where most of the Tribes are.
We can even say what specific tribes were to be found in particular areas.
We cannot be sure however what proportion of the people in a certain area in our
time are of Israelite descent. Even if we may be reasonably sure that a high
percentage
are probably of Israelite origin we cannot be sure. Regarding individual
families no-one knows. The Messiah will inform us.
People from groups whom we identify as Israelite may be reasonably sure that
they are of Hebrew origin and they probably are.
This however is not enough. More proof is needed.
The people in question however should realize that Divine Providence has placed
them in this situation for a reason.
Even though they cannot be certain that they are Israelites they have an
obligation to know of their probably Israelite origins and to act accordingly.
The Almighty did not want them to know for certain at this stage but HE did want
them to be aware of the strong possibility.
This means they have something to work out from where they are.
As for Jews counting Judaism through the mother. We have explained this
elsewhere. It has Biblical Sanction.
Nevertheless concerning the Ten Tribes it does not matter, at present.
Whatever the case their task on the whole must be worked out in their places of
Exile.
God bless you
Yair
(b) Further Comment by Esther: Greek Christians Would Murder Circumcised Children!
Well Put! Most of us do say "it's not [the ALMIGHTY]s time" Perhaps there will
be a day when doors open. I have found that most of us would say we are of
Hebrew or Israelite descent, but when asked are you a JEW, feel cautious to
respond "yes", for ...that may be only the tribe of Judah. Also all of our
families view [the Christian Messiah] as Messiah and many have said if you
believe like that you are no longer JEWISH. We feel if we are HEBREW, we are
HEBREW. One thing I have noticed, is "follow the circumcision trail". Most of
the Hebrew people were reanmed Gentiles, but are militant about circumcising,
because that's what's always been done in their families for thousands of
generations. Gentiles (Japeth's lineage) don't circumcise. Here in the states,
that's a big deal. If you are white and uncircumcised, it is considered somewhat
unusual. The Universal Church was determined to change their identity. If they
could force the people to abandon all Hebrew practices, they would be more loyal
to the new religion. I read that in some Greek villages if a child was found
circumcised both he and his mother were killed, because this was carrying on the
Hebrew tradition. Thanks Again for all your hard work and research. Many of the
people in our fellowships have enjoyed your teachings!
8. Pam McCall: Judah to Arrive first!
Pam wrote: "From what I read in Scriptures, Messiah will hiss/whistle for Israel, and they will be taken up, then over to Israel. I believe many are "jumping the gun" on this matter. Messiah has His time. Scripture tells us the house of Judah will arrive first, and they have and are."
Brit-Am Reply:
Very Good Point!
It is also worth looking at this verse and the other verses around it.
It is definitely speaking of Ephraim. It mentions an initial settlement in
Gilead (Syria) and Lebanon.
Zechariah 10:
7 Those of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man,
And their heart shall rejoice as if with wine.
Yes, their children shall see it and be glad;
Their heart shall rejoice in the Lord.
8 I will whistle for them and gather them,
For I will redeem them;
And they shall increase as they once increased.
9 I will sow them among the peoples,
And they shall remember Me in far countries;
They shall live, together with their children,
And they shall return.
10 I will also bring them back from the land of Egypt,
And gather them from Assyria.
I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon,
Until no more room is found for them.
9. Enough Lack of Response to Brit-Am.
Two days ago we sent out a
Request for your financial support from Brit-Am/Hebrew Nations.
So far we have not seen any response whatsoever.
There may be something on the way but we have not yet seen it.
We are in need of funds.
If we were not in need we would not send out the request.
By the nature of what we are and do we will always be in need of funds.
Nevertheless when funds come in or are promised to do so we do not usually send
out requests.
At least not at present.
Brit-Am/Hebrew Nations has information and is in the process of acquiring more
concerning the identification of western peoples with Hebrew Nations.
We also have experience and the means to access, research, process, knowledge on
this matter and to publicize the findings.
Brit-Am/Hebrew Nations serves as a meeting point for those who are aware or
become aware of ancestral truths.
Those who come to us have a unique choseness of their own.
We wish to serve you and all the nations of Israel.
Divine Providence has not given us any independent source of funding.
In a sense we are both your Guide and your Employee.
Divine Providence seems to have conditioned our ability to do anything on what
you, our subscribers, choose to give us.
Even small amounts can help though obviously the more, the better.
Those who can should give something.
Whosoever gives to Brit-Am will be blessed from ABOVE.
