1. Bronze Age Artefacts in Sweden
Johan Ling, Gothenburg university:
Isotope analysis shows the raw material to Swedish bronze artefacts origins from mining
in Wales and the Mediterranean area, but artwork done here [in Sweden].

2. Hebrew Scripts by Yair Davidiy. Edomites in China: Ancient Script in China Mistakenly Identified as Greek is Probably Hebrew or Edomite
In our work "Esau"
http://hebrewnations.com/publications/books/esaubook.html
we discussed the possibility that Edomites had helped found the ancient civilizations of China and Japan.
Ancient vessels have been found in China dating from ca. 1000 BCE. They are adorned by symbols similar to those of Ancient Greek.
The problem is that "Ancient Greek" is in effect Phoenician.
Let us explain.
The present Hebrew Script is not that mostly used in Ancient Times. The present script began to be generally used mainly for religious purposes from the time of Ezra (ca. 480-440 BCE). There are differences of opinion regarding the present script. One opinion says it was the original script but fell into disuse and was replaced by that of the Canaanites. Another says the script used by the Canaanites was that originally used by the Hebrews as well as by other peoples including the Edomites, Moabites, and Amonites. When the Jews returned from the Babylonian Exile they found the Canaanite Script being used by other peoples who were attributing different sounds to the same letters. In order to avoid confusion they adopted the Babylonian text about whose correct pronunciation there was less chance of misunderstanding.
The Canaanite script is attributed to the Canaanites meaning the Phoenicians who came from Canaan. One opinion says that it should actually be called "Israelite" since most examples and the oldest ones are Hebrew. From an archaeological viewpoint it therefore deserves more to be called the "Israelite" script. Nevertheless, even the Sages attributed this script to foreign sources. The Phoenicians took this script to the Greeks. Early Greek and early Hebrew script could both be read either from left to right or from right to left. It follows that inscriptions that have not been deciphered but which look "Greek" could usually just as well be Canaanite, or Hebrew, or Edomite, or Moabite, or Ammonite.

Last but not least. The Zhejiang Ceramic Museum in China has a number of nearly 3000-year-old ancient potteries, each carved with an unknown symbol, with a total of 23 different symbols. Later on realized they look strikingly similar to Greek characters.

3. Peoples who Claimed Roman [i.e. Edomite] Descent
Did Greek people see themselves as Romans before the destruction of the Ottoman Empire?

by Dimitris Almyrantis
Extracts:
The modern Greeks, Romanians and Aromanians, the latter two also called 'Vlachs' by Latins, all used the name 'Romans' - 'Romanian' and 'Aromanian' are both merely different regional pronunciations of the word.
... A note on the Ottomans. Mehmed Fatih adopted the title of Caesar and very large amounts of the 'Byzantine' court ceremonial, as well as some cherrypicked elements of the Classical (i.e. Republican-Consular) Roman tradition in the Renaissance environment, in which most European rulers (including the Spaniards, Germans and Russians, to name a few) were making conscious claims to the heritage of Rome as a universal empire.

4. The Under-Appreciated Military Glory of France
There is a respectable opinion that France has enjoyed the most military success of any European country:
Which country is the most successful military power in European history?
https://www.quora.com/Who-is-the-person-most-responsible-for-France%E2%80%99s-bad-reputation-in-regards-to-its-military/answer/John-Bartram
According to the historian Niall Ferguson, of the 125 major European wars fought since 1495, the French have participated in 50, more than Austria (47) and England (43). Out of 168 battles fought since 387BC, they have won 109, lost 49 and drawn 10.
The British tend to be rather selective about the battles they remember. Every English schoolboy was once able to recite the roll call of our glorious wins at Crecy (1346), Poitiers (1356) and Agincourt (1415), but no one's ever heard of the French victories at Patay (1429) and (especially) at Castillon (1453), where French cannons tore the English apart, winning the Hundred Years War and confirming France as the most powerful military nation in Europe.
And what about the Duke of Enghien thrashing the Spanish at Rocroi late on in the Thirty Years War in 1643, ending a century of Spanish dominance? Or the siege of Yorktown, Virginia, in 1781, when General Comte de Rochambeau and American forces prevailed? The British always prided themselves on superiority at sea, but knew they could never win a land war on the Continent.
France's achievements help to explain another French 'military victory'. Whether it is ranks (general, captain, corporal, lieutenant); equipment (lance, mine, bayonet, epaulette, trench); organisation (volunteer, regiment, soldier, barracks) or strategy (army, camouflage, combat, esprit de corps, reconnaissance), the language of warfare is French.
Consider the Napoleonic Wars, for example - how many European powers were able to stand up to Napoleon on the battlefield? They were all defeated, even Russia until after Moscow; to defeat him at Waterloo, the whole lot had to gang up. Wellington faced just his marshals until that point and even then it was a 'close run thing'.

5. What did the Nazis do with half Jews?
https://www.quora.com/What-did-the-Nazis-do-with-half-Jews/answer/Gilad-Sabo-1
by Gilad Sabo, I'm Jewish
Extracts:
Until 1940 first degree Mischling , or impure Germans who were half Jewish, were recruited to the Wehrmacht (yet, not to the SS). However, mostly they couldn't serve in commanding position. In some cases, as described in many historical books about the war, Wehrmacht soldiers were executed days before the defeat of Germany, because at that point their service couldn't change nothing but still they were half Jewish. In the 1942 Wannsee Conference it was discussed whether they should be exterminated or sterilized. However, though decisions were made (basically to sterilize them all, send to death camps those of them who refuse sterilization and give exempts of racial laws in special cases on individual basis) in practice they were not observed and there was not unified policy as for Mischlings.
In 1943 Fritz Sauckel, the General Plenipotentiary for Labour Deployment, who was in charge on slave and forced labor in the third Reich and had unlimited authority in this position, decided that all Mischlings who are not soldiers or employed in jobs with importance for the German army, would be taken to forced labor.
In special cases, first degree Mischlings were allowed to marry Aryan person (needed special approval to do that) and then the children were considered Aryan.
Mischlings who died in the war while serving in the Wehrmacht been declared Arians after their death. Those of them who excelled in their occupation or been severely wounded in the war could ask exempt from the racial laws. Their request could only been approved directly by Hitler who personally examined their profile picture (they had to look Aryan) and their CV. If approved, they were declared honorary Aryans (in difference from Aryan).
Mischling whose mother wasn't Jewish (therefore not Jewish according to the Jewish law) could been reclassified as Aryan if their mothers declared that they been born from an affair outside marriage with Aryan men.
