1. New Answers Posted to Quora by Yair Davidiy
Why are there so many English surnames basically Jewish Cohen, Koen, Levy, Lewis, etc.? Is that because the English and Jews are interbred and basically the same people?

According to Torah, if a man steals an item and later pays for it (by sending a donation to the store, for example), can he keep the item?

3. Correspondence with Yair Daviidy on the Subject of Hebrew "Identity" Belief and Anti-Semitism.
W: (on another issue) said:
.... it sounds a lot like the old antisemitic claims that the English are descended from the Lost Tribes.
Yair Davidiy Replied:
The belief that the British and kindred folk descend from the Lost Ten Tribes is an ancient phenomenon.
Its followers may be divided into those who are pro-Jewish and they who hold anti-Semitic notions.
The pro-Jewish section are the majority and always were. Famous champions of the Jews and of Zionism such as Orde Wingate (who helped consolidate the Hagana for defense of Jews in Palestine), John Henry Patterson (commander of the Jewish legion in WW1), and Colonel Richard Meinertzhagen (British Soldier and Zionist in Palestine in WW1) all believed the British were from the Lost Ten Tribes and a brother nation to the Jews. There were numerous others.
It is somewhat disconcerting and offensive to hear people automatically assume that belief in the British are from the Ten Tribes means a concomitant anti-Jewish bias. This is not the case. On the contrary.
In fact upon examination they who say they have such a belief and are also anti-Jewish often prove to hold other notions inimical to both the British and Jews.
W. answered:
I'm an American Jew and I have never found a non Jew with an opinion on the Lost Tribes who wasn't also wildly antisemitic. It is often wrapped up in philosemitism but it is antisemitism nonetheless. Do not mistake Zionism for actual support of Jews. In fact, my experience is that Christians with strong opinions on Zionism (pro or anti) will turn out to be antisemitic.
Yair Davidiy:
I disagree. I have been involved in this subject one way or the other for most of my life. An extreme opinion would say that all Gentiles are anti-Jewish. This is not so but if a very stringent appraisal is to be applied then many Jews might also not reach the mark. At all events, compared to other Gentiles and even compared to some Jews, there are non-Jews who in effect are pro-Jewish. Some of these also believe that a portion of peoples in the West are themselves also descended from Israel. I am active in this field and head an organization (Brit-Am/Hebrew Awareness) promoting it. I would say that all, or at least nearly all, the several hundred in number connected with us are pro-Jewish. Similar groups, sometimes rivals of ours, also exist. None of these are overtly anti-Semitic though a few individuals may (or may not) be and then only to a relatively mild degree.
