Ethiopian Jews are pro-Israel!

<< < (3/5) > >>

Nonny:
The Falashas are of pure Ethiopian stock, part of the Agaw group of tribes of Cushitic origin, indistinguishable physically and genetically from their fellow Ethiopians. Most of the great Ethiopicists of the last century, especially Conti Rossini of Rome, Cerulli of Milan, Polotsky of Jerusalem, Leslau of California, Rodison of Paris, Ullendorff of London, and Rabbi Dr Maurice Gaguine of Manchester, rejected the concept of an authentic Jewish source for the Falashas as being historically unwarranted

There is evidence that Jewish merchants from Arabia spread a form of Judaic culture throughout Ethiopia during the pre-Christian Aksumite era. The available historical, linguistic, cultural and semantic evidence suggests that the Falashas are probably descended from those pockets of resistance that clung to this Judaic culture against the fierce Christian penetration of Ethiopia.

Claiming filiation from Jews is a fairly common phenomenon whereby colonised minorities tend to identify their plight with that of Ancient Israel e.g. the African-American "Black Hebrews" of Dimona, who claim to be the real Jews, with Ashkenazim and Sefardim as the impostors!

Some claim that the Falashas are connected to the Tribe of Dan.

Yet The Talmud rules that because they lost contact for so long with the spiritual leadership of the Tribe of Judah, all the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel are Halachically goyim (Yevamos 17), but that in Messianic times they will return, convert and accept again the Torah of Moshe.

Rabbi Kahane, who was not a "racist", despite being labelled as such, held the Falashas to be our brother Jews, once the Halachic conversion requirements have been fulfilled.

Otherwise: "The Falashas are not our brother Jews. They are plain Ethiopian blacks who have brought a mageifoh of AIDS into Eretz Yisroel!" (Rabbi Avigdor Miller).

Notice: that the ones who were initially keen in bringing them to Israel were the leftists. Yossi Sarid wanted to bring in 1 million Ethiopian blacks immediately.

But once the leftists saw that the Falashas and Falash Mura are quite right-wing, they've now clamped down totally: the last 6000 are on their way.

After that: not one Ethiopian will be allowed in. אנחנו לא רוצים להיתכושן המדינה "We don't want to negrify the State" (Mayor of Mevasseret Tziyon Carmi Gillon, former head of Shabak, after seeing new Falash Mura immigrants picking through the municipality trash receptacles!).

"We have not done anyone a favour by bringing the Ethiopians to Israel: not to them, nor to us!" (Natan Sharansky).

Lewinsky Stinks, Dr. Brennan Rocks:
Yacov, what is the difference between the Oral Torah and the written Torah?

Nonny:

--- Quote from: Yacov Menashe Ben Rachamim ---Chaim says that The LOST Tribes won't be back when The Mashiach comes except for the ancient Ten Tribes from before The Assyrian Exile, in Resurrection of The Dead.
--- End quote ---

Yair Davidy of Britam is an Orthodox right-wing Australian fellow in Jerusalem who brings interesting evidence that the 10 Lost Tribes are to be found amongst the white European, Celtic, British, US & Australian peoples!

Whilst this sounds like a rehash of the Victorian "British-Israelite" theory, Davidy is often interviewed on Arutz 7 and his site www.britam.org is well worth a serious study.
 


Remember: the Talmud states that although the 10 Lost Tribes are of Israelitish stock, they have the status of gentiles!

Nonny:
Whilst it may be hard to accept that your average uncircumcised, beer swilling, swine scoffing, red nosed, cussing Englishman/Dutchman/Swede/Australian/Scotsman/American could be from the ancient Am Yisrael, and I myself are not fully convinced, but in light of the historical and geographical evidence and the prophecies about the Ten Tribes' worldwide dispersion, numbers and power around the world, and their ultimate return, Davidy cannot be dismissed without study, which I doubt that you or Chaim have done.

In particular wrt the claim that the Anglo-Americans are Ephraim-Menassites, in the light of current events, and their opposition to Judah (Israel) and ultimate reconciliation, as predicted.

No one to date, let alone any scholar, has refuted Davidy's claims. (BTW: Davidy is v.right wing, opposes territorial withdrawl, is very expansionist, and is basically a closet Kahanist-JTFer!).

He has much support from v.wealthy Anglo-American goyim and Noahides, which could be a source of funding for JTF.

This from his site:

http://www.britam.org/Proof/ProofsSummary.html

"Our studies have shown concerning the location of the Lost Ten Tribes in the Latter Days that the Bible gives us a great many indications.
From the Geographical Perspective they would be at the geographical extremities (ends) of the earth and in the best physical locations. They would have their major centers to the north, northwest, and west of the Land of Israel, in Isles of the Sea and on peninsulas (thighs). They would be seafarers, and especially linked with the Atlantic Ocean (Tarshish) area. They were to be seafarers. The Tribe of Zebulon would dwell on the Shores of the Sea as the Dutch (some of whom were named "Sabalingoi") indeed do. They would also have a major center in Zerephath meaning the areas of France and the North and the British Isles. They would be found in several different Oceans. One of their major colonies would be in the Land of Sinim which is the Continent of Australia.

Blessings
The Lost Ten Tribes were to enjoy agricultural pleny, vast mineral resources, very large populations, and the "Gates" or straegic thoroughfares of the world.

Joseph
The Blessings were to be found in an especially increased measure in the offspring of Joseph whom we have identified chiefly with the English-speaking peoples.
The figure of Cyrus in Isaiah represents Joseph in the Latter Days. They were to rule over India and much of Africa and the thoroughfare (Suez Canal) of Egpt and to cause large-bodied Africans to be brought over to them in chains at first to serve them and to eventually acknowledge the G-d of Israel with them. Joseph was to be the Dominant World Power, the Greatest International Military Force, and to Rule over others. Joseph was to prove himself capable of defeating in war the major warrior nations of Europe. Ephraim was to symbolize the principal of Nobility or Aristocratic Privilege as Britain does. Manasseh represents the Principles of Responsible Representation and Capitalism ("Machir") as found in the USA. The unicorn and "John Bull" were to be major symbols of Joseph.

Prophesied Roles and Attributes
The Lost Ten Tribes were to become a Blessing to other Peoples and a Light to the Nations. They were to be ruled by descendants of King David and also to be drinkers of alcohol often to excess. They were to be Separate from Judah and not recognizable by Judah according to the criteria with which Judah had become familiar. Their major religion was to be Christianity. They were to be historically associated with and influenced by the descendants of Gomer meaning the Turkish, Germanic, and Celtic-speaking peoples. A trail of megalithic monuments from the Land of Israel to their places of exile in the future would enable them to determine their Israelite origins. Their generic names were to reflect their ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The Tribal and Clan Names of the seventy family members of Jacob who went down to Egypt were to be recalled in historical appellations applied to their own Tribal and Clan groups.

ALL OF THE ABOVE are to be found in peoples identified by Brit-Am as having an overwhelming majority of the Lost Ten Tribes amongst their peoples. These nations include Canada, the USA, Ireland, Britain, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, and possibly Switzerland along with part of South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand.

ONLY these nations fulfil ALL of the required Biblical signs. These nations are also today similar to each other in basic outlook and share a recognized common ancestry. In ADDITION to all of the above ONLY these nations fulfil in a general sense the Ten Criteria we have found as valid for determining which national groups belong to Israel.
In addition to the described Biblical Proofs that are understandable almost immediately from the simple meaning of the verses even in English Translation more Scriptural and Scripture-derived evidence exists in the form of Biblical Codes, Rabbinical Exegesis, and a close analysis of the Hebrew Verses. Examples of these additional sources of evidence are given in articles on our Web Site. They also constitute valid Proofs and help confirm our conclusions.

These Biblical and Biblically-Related Proofs are complemented and strengthened in their impact and the comprehension of them through secular studies in history, archaeology, linguistics, mythology, sociology, and in every field of any pertinence to tracing the ancestry of present-day nations.

These proofs reflect the truth. All of them are correct and all of them valid though evidence derived from the Bible is the foundation for all the rest. It may be that due to individual predilections or parallels elsewhere that some of this evidence will not be immediately accepted by they who peruse it. Nevertheless the evidence needs to be taken as ONE COMPREHENSIVE WHOLE each part supplementing, complementing, and reinforcing the other. When seen as a unitary body of evidence these proofs to our understanding are irrefutable. "

MassuhDGoodName:
I personally consider the "proofs" set forth by BritAm as "just so much ridiculousness", and I indeed refuted Davidy's "findings" directly well over a year ago.  I was particularly struck by the fact of his being totally ignorant of the fact that the entire "Christian Identity" Movement as well as Aryan Nations and others all use their claim to being the true Israelites, to justify their call for a final holocaust against the Jewish People.

However, for the sake of curiosity, let's hypothetically assume that BritAm's theories are solid documentable facts of history...

What would or could result by such proofs being commonly accepted; to the extent that any changes in international geo-politics might result?

I can only imagine the result being intensified calls for the annihilation of the Jews; only now coming from a much larger population.
