Title: Introducing Uziyahu
Post by: Uziyahu on November 13, 2007, 08:08:44 PM: Shalom, everyone!

I was convinced to visit this forum by a video on YouTube uploaded by Mills.

I gave up Yeshu back in 1998, while reading "James, the Brother of Jesus", by Robert Eisenman, and relearning the Bible from scratch, putting away all of my preconceived notions. I don't think I got all of the way through the Torah before I realized just how anti-Jewish the so-called "New Testament" is.

(I believe that if a born non-Jew Christian wants to TRULY support the State of Israel, they should give up their false god/messiah and start observing the Torah, whether as a Noachide or a convert to Judaism.)

In the late 80's, I served in the United States Army in Alaska, the 6th Infantry Division (Light), the "Arctic Star", which is actually a red Magen David. We were also jokingly called "the Screamin' Hebrews". I went on to serve as a Mormon missionary in Utah, of all places, where I discovered how false Mormonism is. (Mormons believe they are of the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel.) I went on from their to learn more about the Bible from Jehovah's Witnesses, so-called Messianic Jews, the Sacred Name/Torah-Faith movement, the Ebionites, and Karaite Judaism. I am not a convert to Judaism, according to Rabbinical halachah, but I am circumcised and observe the Torah, without Yeshu, so that makes me a Noachide, according to the Rabbis. I identify myself as Jewish, based on the 1st Century standards for conversion, as evidenced in Flavius Josephus. I'm reading the Mishnah, now, so Rabbinical conversion is still a future possibility.

I am pro-Israel and a big fan of the IDF. I had a wargaming group online called "the IDF Squad" for a number of years. That website is now used to host virtual recreations of modern Israeli soldiers in the Tzahal that are used in a highly-realistic combat simulation series called "Operation Flashpoint" and "Armed Assault".

Here's a picture of some of the units in-game...

The IDF was using this game series to train its soldiers, but I don't know if they still are. I imagine daily life in Israel provides enough training.

I upload counter-missionary videos on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=uziyahuidf) and often hang out in the Islam Talk room on YouTube, though any talk of the State of Israel tends to get things heated. We REALLY need a Jews & Noachides room going round-the-clock on Stickam.com!

Well, that's it for now, I guess.

I was one of the external beta-testers for both "Operation Flashpoint" and "Armed Assault". My computer system that I have now didn't run ArmA so well, so bailed out of beta-testing ArmA. It was obvious the game was in good hands, anyway.

I only served one term in the Army, but I'm still interested in the technology and the tactics. I'm pretty darn pissed-off that the IDF thought that you could use a Merkava tank for hostage rescue. Why are military leaders so brain-dead, sometimes? Are they just playing a board game with soldier's lives?

Yeah, don't worry. I had already read "James, the Brother of Jesus" by Eisenman when I finally got around to reading Josephus.

Joseph Atwill seems to be asserting, these days, that Josephus was a fictional character created by the Flavian court.
