DEAR BROTHERS
I AM A WELSHMAN AND I CAN CONFIRM TO YOU THAT HERE IN WALES,THERE IS A REAL
BELIEF(AS A MATTER OF FACT) THAT WE ARE DEFINITELY ONE OF THE LOST TRIBES.
BRITAIN CAME FROM A WELSH WORD "BRYTHONIAID" IT MEANS BRITAIN IN ENGLISH.
WE WERE HERE BEFORE THE "SAXONS" IT IS BELIEVED THAT THE WORD SAXONS
ACTUALLY DERIVED FROM ISACSONS "THE SONS OF ISSAC ETC...WHO WAS THE
PROMISED CHILD AND BORN BY A MIRACLE OF GOD.HE REPRESENT ISRAEL IN THE
BIBLE AS MUCH AS JACOB
SHALOM DEAR BROTHERS

2. Brit-Am and Optimal parenting?
Hi, this is Trish from optimalparenting.com.
I really liked www.britam.org,
so I placed a listing for you on my site. It's on the
familytree page. I'm trying to build a really complete
Directory.
If you'd like me to make any changes to the listing,
just
say so. You can see it at

4. New Brit-Am Symbol?
The present de facto Brit-Am Symbol is the red, blue, and white Magen David
seen on the spine of our books.
For various reasons not everybody is happy with this symbol.
Some have requested that we use a menorah but we have decided not to.
On the back of our book "Origin" you will see a picture of the Tudor Rose
with ten petals (five white and five red).
This is one of the symbols of Britain. According to the Zohar the same
symbol but with twelve petals (6 red and 6 white)
represents the Community of Israel. This is explained at length in our work
"Ephraim".
We may use such a twelve-petalled symbol as an alternative symbol of Brit-Am.
5. Another Reply from South Africa and an answer by Brit-Am
From: Benjamin Fourie
Subject: Re: "Brit-Am Now"-462
The individuation of spiritual values has been the most striking quality of
many of the Afrikaner leaders, which make them very well epuipped to inherit
a "new world". This is probably one of the reasons why they have been
maligned by the British and why you perhaps seem to be biased about their
history.
No sensible person will agree to the immoral exploitation of cheap labor in
South Africa, but few have realized that you find Huguenot descendants in
all spheres (from ultra-conservative to ultra-liberal) in the political life
of South Africa.
Again, chacun a son gout.

Brit-Am Reply: Just for the record we went out of our way in every edition
of "The Tribes"
to speak on behalf of the South Africans even though by doing so we were
liable to alienate true
friends of ours and be misunderstood by others.
I have no wish to criticize anyone unnecessarily.
Exactly what happened is not clear to me but AT THE TIME IN QUESTION
ANTI-SEMITISM
WAS ACCEPTED and was espoused by people who later changed their minds.
Historically the British fought a war against the Boers who used guerilla
tactics with great success.
The British placed the Boer women and children in camps where a third died
from sickness.
The British claim it was not their fault but some of the Boers believe it
was deliberate.
Later great Boer leaders, such as Jan Smuts worked for a reconciliation
between the Boers and British.
General Smuts apparently believed that both his people and the British were
of Israelite descent.
I asked a South African visitor who may be in a position to know if in her
opinion, the South Africans of British and Boer descent
would be able to rectify the present bad situation they find themselves in.
The answer was, No, because they are divided amongst
themselves.
We recognize the Boers of South Africa and the British (and the Irish) as
primarily descended from the Lost Tribes of Israel
and as brother Israelites to the Jews of Judah. We think that everyone
should be aware of this.
This is the first and most important step and what we are really concerned
with.
Everything else is subsidiary to this cause.
If I was wrong I apologize.
If I was not wrong but spoke inadvertently I also apologize.
6. Under the Weather
I have a bad case of the flue, An unusually heavy workload, and a few other
problems
you either don't want to hear about or I would prefer not to tell you..
Some things are not be being dealt with as they should but give us a few days
and hopefully things will improve.
7. Jan Christiaan Smuts
Jan Christiaan Smuts, (May 24, 1870 - September 11, 1950) was a prominent
South African statesman and soldier. He was born in Malmesbury in the Cape
Colony and was educated at Christ's College, Cambridge.
www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk%2FFWWsmuts.htm
He returned to South Africa where he became the state attorney of
Johannesburg and a member of Paul Kruger's government. In 1899 Smuts
contributed to A Century of Wrong, a pamphlet that explained the Boer case
against Britain.
During the Boer War (1899-1902) Smuts established himself as a guerrilla
leader of exceptional talent. Smuts was also one of the leading negotiators
involved in the production of the Vereeniging Peace Treaty (1902). An
opponent of extreme nationalism, Smuts argued that South Africa's future
lay in co-operation with Britain.
Smuts held a succession of cabinet posts, including defence minister, under
President Louis Botha but on the outbreak of the First World War, Smuts
rejoined the army and led South Africa's successful campaign in German
East-Africa.
In 1917 David Lloyd George invited Smuts to join the Imperial War Cabinet
in London. He soon obtained a high reputation and was an influential figure
in devising Allied war strategy. While in England he played a leading role
in establishing the Royal Air Force.
At the Paris Peace Conference, Smuts worked closely with Woodrow Wilson, in
advocating a League of Nations. Smuts returned to South Africa after the
signing of the Versailles Treaty in 1919 and soon afterwards became prime
minister. Smuts lost power in 1924 but later returned to office as deputy
prime minister (1933-39) and prime minister (1939-48).
(1) Arthur Harris, Bomber Command (1947), speaks of Jan Smuts
There are many outstanding things about Smuts, the brilliance of his
intellect, his immense physical hardiness and toughness so that you cannot
believe you are looking, not at a man of forty, but of seventy, his great
personal bravery, and his delightful sense of humour. Speaking in a clear,
high-pitched voice, he will give you the answer to almost any proposition
that you put before him. A practical answer, and a better one than most.
Smuts of course puts the welfare of his country first. But he undoubtedly
believes that the best thing for the world is the extension of the ideas
that have produced the British Commonwealth. The most brilliant, if not the
most bitter opponent of ours during the Boer War, he has never forgotten
the aftermath, when the Transvaal and the Orange Free State were handed
back, and indeed the whole of "South" Africa including such predominantly "
British" places as Natal and the Cape, and the Union of South Africa at
last brought into being. He regards that as a most extraordinary example of
far-sighted statesmanship, as indeed it was; not only because it brought
into the Commonwealth such great Boer patriots as Smuts and Botha, but it
healed also to a large extent the spiritual wounds of Boer and British in
South Africa.
Jan Smuts supported the Balfour Declaration and Zionism
www.foigm.org%2FIMG%2Fvarner6.htm
Another member of the cabinet, Jan Christian Smuts from South Africa,
earlier had fought the British in the Boer War. Steeped in the Bible, Smuts
strongly supported the Zionist ideas. He later wrote in his personal
memoirs, "The people of South Africa have been brought up almost entirely
on Jewish tradition. The Old Testament has been the very marrow of Dutch
culture here in South Africa." He had been brought up to believe that "the
day will come when the words of the prophets will become true, and Israel
will return to its own land."
Jan Smuts believed the British and Boers were descended from Israel.
Quote from a British Israel publication (that I no longer have) as well as
personal communication from a descendant of the general.
