Extract concerning President Ronald Reagan:
Yehonatan David White testified that together with his father, Rabbi Julian White, he had once attended an audience with President Ronald Reagan. President Reagan said he was descended from Irish Kings who had come from Israel. He related the name Tara (an important center in Irish History) to the Hebrew word "Torah".

2. Clifford Riley: Notes on Robin Hood
Re Brit-Am Now no. 2132 Ten Tribes Studies.
#1. Cristian Sildan: A Jewish Robin Hood in East European Galicia. Was Robin Hood Jewish? Reuben Hod?
Dear Yair,
Â
I'm writing you in relation the claims that Robin Hood was Jewish. With respect to all concerned such a claim is flawed on so many levels. During the period of history concerned many outlaws used the name Robin Hood as an alias, a kind of John Doe, so if they got caught they'd try and blame someone else. Whilst the image have of Robin Hood is a composite of many different people but mainly on three people in particular, each from differing periods of history.
The name 'Robin Hood' originated as 'Robin in the Hood' as during the Middle Ages 'in the Hood' was one of many terms such as 'wolves head' used to describe someone who had been branded an outlaw. Whilst 'Robin' was a shortened version of 'Robert', so in a sense 'Robin Hood' really means 'Robert the Outlaw'.Â
The first Robin Hood was a peasant robber who scammed travellers, but took sympathy on a knight. The Robin Hood who was a noble who lost his land and titles, fought against King John, etc. was based on the real life Fulk Fitzwarine. Whilst according to some historians Fulk Fitzwarine was descended from Owain Ddantgwyn
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Owain_Ddantgwyn
 and if you don't know who he was believed to be I'm not telling you, it'll only ruin the surprise.
Whilst the Robin Hood who took part in the competition for the golden arrow, in which Robin splits an arrow with another is based on the actions of the Carlisle outlaw Adam Bell. The existence of the largely forgotten Adam Bell not only predates that Robin Hood of the King John period, but his existence is matter of historical fact as Adam Bell and his friends Clym of the Clough and William of Cloudesly, were caught, arrested, put on trail and I think escaped (I writing this from memory so I might be wrong about their fate), but the records for their arrest, trail, etc.still survive. Equally, medieval records survive proving that a outlaw called Friar Tuck did exist.
On the whole evidence shows that Robin Hood was a composite of many people. It is possible that one or more might have been Jewish, but the others would have been Christian, Pagan or even atheist.
Yours Cliff

(1)Â Problems with the Swiss and General DNA Findings in Europe

Can't say I Blame you for not mentioning the Germans and Austrians, But the Swiss are pretty much the same people as the Germans/Austrians. Also DNA studies have show that the People of Great Britain are genetically identical to Germans. Also, it has recently been found through Genetic studies that the people in the South West of Germany are DNA Celts.

Brit-Am Reply:
OK. Despite a lot of problems with the Swiss attitude in history, Switzerland still fits our Ephraim Criteria for deciding who is Israelite and who is not.
See Ephraimite Criteria
http://www.britam.org/criteria.html
As for DNA, it is impossible to deny that DNA supplies many answers to questions of ancestry.  We ourselves use it on occasion.
There is however a problem of geographical determination. A look at a map of Y(amle)DNA haplogroup distribution indicates determination by location. It has already been admitted that environment influences mt(female-determined) DNA haplogroups. We believe that eventually similar conclusions will be reached for Y(male transmitted)DNA haplogroups.
In other words some kind of combined both environmental and inherited factors are at work, similar to to conclusions already reached about racial head shapes.

The number should also include those who have already lived and died since the prophecies were given. A staggering number!!

Brit-Am Says:
Good point. Here are a few extracts from the source you referred to followed by our Brit-Am Reply:
Deuteronomy 28
1 If you will only obey the Lord your God, by diligently observing all his commandments that I am commanding you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth; 2 all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the Lord your God:
3 Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the field.
4 Blessed shall be the fruit of your womb, the fruit of your ground, and the fruit of your livestock, both the increase of your cattle and the issue of your flock.
5 Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading-bowl.
6 Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out.
7 The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before you; they shall come out against you one way, and flee before you seven ways. 8 The Lord will command the blessing upon you in your barns, and in all that you undertake; he will bless you in the land that the Lord your God is giving you. 9 The Lord will establish you as his holy people, as he has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in his ways. 10 All the peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they shall be afraid of you. ....
15 But if you will not obey the Lord your God by diligently observing all his commandments and decrees, which I am commanding you today, then all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you:
16 Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the field.
....65 Among those nations you shall find no ease, no resting-place for the sole of your foot. There the Lord will give you a trembling heart, failing eyes, and a languishing spirit. 66 Your life shall hang in doubt before you; night and day you shall be in dread, with no assurance of your life.... 68 The Lord will bring you back in ships to Egypt, by a route that I promised you would never see again; and there you shall offer yourselves for sale to your enemies as male and female slaves, but there will be no buyer.

Brit-Am Reply:
These Prophecies were fulfilled by the Lost Ten Tribes in the West and the Jews of Judah throughout their places of dispersion. The two halves of the Israelite Nations need to be considered as a whole.

Very VERY impressive. From what I have seen in his other videos, what he teaches is well supported in the Bible. '
