Answer:
Regarding e-mail addresses: In the past we used to show the e-mail
addresses of all our correspondents but then unsavory tapes started
spamming them so we generally keep the addressees anonymous unless the
people concerned appear to be interested in additional contacts.
Palestinian Reasons for Opposition:
This is where they were born. They often have no other place to go and
their attempts to go elsewhere are often discouraged by their kin. Most
would gladly leave immediately if they could. They should be enabled to
do so. It is inhumane not to transfer these unfortunates elsewhere. They
are told that the Jews stole their lands and they are led to believe that
through violence and aggression they will be able to take from the Jews
that which the Jews now hold. They are also taught to despise the Jews and
that the Jews are somehow "inferior" to them. Culturally (amongst their own
kind) they are used to oppression, exploitation, violence, incest and rape,
killing and/or exploiting the weak and the Jews are depicted in their eyes
as worthy of victimization and capable of being victimized.

3. Jeremy Birningham: Finding our way home
Brit-Am - 247 Anne wrote I just really want to know

who we are. God is awakening us. About three years ago I was asking myself
that very same question. "who am I where did my family originate" Yes, I
have an English last name and I obviously realized that my origins come
from the UK. However my thinking was there was no way people just sprung up
out of the soil of the UK to become the people of the Islands. We had to
come from some other place. I started researching and reading some of the
ancient history of the UK and the name Israel kept poping up. I bumped into
Yairs website in my research and all my questions where answered with
clarity. We are Israelite. I think that we are at the beginning of the
endtimes. Soon many lost Israelites will start asking "who am I."

4. Irish, Welsh, and Jews

Yair,
Thought this was very good information. It explains a lot of things ,
especially when I look at the Irish, Welsh, etc and I feel like they are
part of my people.

Brit-Am in the state of Israel takes a Jewish perspective from "Judah" but
identifies Joseph with the so-called "Anglos".
I guess we do support so-called "Anglo-domination" for other peoples as the
least of all evils if someone is going to be dominant at all.
"Anglo-domination" is preferable to Continental European, Russian, Arab,
Chinese, Japanese, or who ever else may be aiming to fill a power vacuum.
For some peoples "Anglo-domination" may be better than independence at
least from an international point of view.
At the same time both Judah and Joseph should strengthen their Biblical
belief and Joseph should identify more with Judah.
We may well be guilty of "ethnocentrism" but the point should be whether or
not the facts support our case or not.
If reality is "ethnocentric" what do you want from us?
In WW2 Britain and America did not turn their backs on the Jews. On the
contrary. Even so they should have done more.
We have discussed this matter at some length at the beginning of our book,
"The Tribes".
You said:
<<If we really were from Israeli lineage, then we are only angering YHWH
even worse by our lack of true worship.>>
This is partly correct.
On the other hand, we have shown that according to Scripture the Lost Ten
Tribes would lose knowledge of their identity
and worship in a mixed Hebraic-paganised form while at the same time
fulfilling their mission in world history
according to the Divine Will. This is what the Bible says. We do not
necessarily have to have all the answers.
At some stage towards the end times the Lost Ten Tribes will have to return
and accept a true worship.
We may be drawing closer to this era but we have not yet gotten there.
Our task, in Brit-Am, is restricted to informing Judah and Joseph and the
other tribes of the identity of the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel.
In this world you have carpenters, plumbers, doctors, and dentists.
They are expected to do their own tasks and stick to them.
