1. David Jackson: Are Kerry and Obama Inciting World leaders Against Israel?
Yair:
Very disturbing choice of words by US Secretary of State...
Article:
If there's no two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict soon,
Israel risks becoming "an apartheid state," Secretary of State John Kerry
told a room of influential world leaders in a closed-door meeting Friday.
Senior American officials have rarely, if ever, used the term "apartheid" in
reference to Israel, and President Obama has previously rejected the idea
that the word should apply to the Jewish state. Kerry's use of the loaded
term is already rankling Jewish leaders in America-and it could attract
unwanted attention in Israel, as well.
... Is this just public posturing and an empty threat by the Catholic Kerry,
who is of partly Jewish lineage, or does this signal a move by the Obama
administration to make Israel the next South Africa?
My initial reaction to these kind of comments is to consider them mostly
bluster intended for public consumption and to make one side, the
Palestinians in this case, more apt to see the US as an honest broker.
Hopefully so. But in my opinion the people of the Hebrew Nations should not
be completely dismissive of this. Small, unlikely movements can grow fast.
Witness the reunification of East and West Germany.
Israel is by its own acknowledgement a racially-defined state. The same
forces that are undermining US demographics are zeroing in on Israel next.
The gentile nations have the whole world to choose from, but this tiny strip
in the Eastern Mediterranean is the only homeland the Jews have. Where else
can they go and not be assimilated out of existence?

3. Query: Since Moses was described as an Egyptian was he not Black?

Time-Line: The Sons of Israel

Jesus Black
I have a question. Didn't Moses pass for an Egyptian? Wasn't he raised in Pharaoh home. What color were those Egyptians? Black People right? So at what point did Moses off springs turn into white people. Every Rabbi I know can never answer this question. Can U? I'm interested in Judism but it seems something Is not right with the history told to us about these 12 tribes. About their original identity. At what point did all these black people of the bible turn black?

Brit-Am Reply:
Moses was described by the daughters of Jethro as an Egyptian (Exodus 2:19). Jethro was a foreigner, a Midianite. At that time there were many non-Egyptians in Egypt. The Hebrew-Canaanite-Egyptian combination known as the Hycsos had ruled over the country just beforehand. The Israelites were now enslaved in Egypt but not necessarily that distinguishable in dress, etc, from the others. This would apply especially to Moses who had been raised by Egyptians in the Egyptian manner.
Moses had been brought up in the House of Pharoah BUT was as an infant had been recognized immediately as a Hebrew,
"This must be one of the Hebrews' children," (Exodus 2:6)
In modern times,
King Farouk (Monarch 1936-1953) was of Albanian ancestry and was quite fair.
Then came Naguib (1953-54), Gamal Abdel Nasser (1954-1970), Sadat (1970-1981), Hosni Mubarak (1981-2011), Morsi (2012-2013),
Abdul Fatah al-Sisi (2013- ).
Sadat had a Sudanese mother so he was rather darkish. All the others had dark hair and eyes but white skin on the whole.
It may be protested that these are all descendants of Arabs and others and not real Egyptians. Personally I doubt this but let us take the Copts who are believed to be truer in type to the original Egyptian populace. Make a Search-Engine entry for Pictures of Copts. They seem to be mostly white though with dark hair and eyes. Some however have light brown hair.
Judging by archaeological remains,
The Ancient Egyptians were on the whole not black but rather mainly of Mediterranean Type. Egypt is on the fringe of Africa passing into Asia. Due to climate AND environment the further south you go in Egypt the darker the people become. Some of the Egyptians could be quite fair, others very dark. This applies today and it applied then even though the racial stock may have changed somewhat.
See the pictures of Ancient Egyptians on our site.
You will note most have dark hair; some are darkish, some of brown or yellowish complexion, others light skinned. There are a few women of blondish and light brown-haired appearance, etc, and these may have been of foreign origin.
Or they may not.
Blondish types elsewhere, without outside admixture, account for ca.15% of the Mediterranean physical type. It is a natural phenomenon. Also, amongst the Ancient Libyans, and the modern Hamitic Berbers both of whom were close of kin to the Ancient Egyptians blondish types are found.
It is admitted that most Ancient Egyptians where darkish when compared to modern Westerners. Some more fair haired types however were also present. These too, in the eyes of outsiders, would have been considered Egyptian.

Incidentally, the people of Jethro, the Midianites, were very dark according to a Rabbinical Source (Safer HaDorot).
Later Moses did get in trouble with his family for marrying a black woman. The intention may have been to Zippora the daughter of Jethro.

4. YouTube Clip. Time-Line: The Sons of Israel
Duration: 12.46 minutes
This Time-Line authored by Sylvia Halpert and explained by Yair Davidiy continues Israelite history from the beginning. Abraham begat Isaac and he begat Jacob who was renamed Israel. Israel had 12 sons. Together with his sons and grandsons they numbered 70 souls. Descendants of these 70 are identifiable as Tribal Groups in History. They are destined to rule over the 70 nations into which all mankind is divided.

5. Proverbs 17: 26-28. Keep Calm in an Emergency and Silence is Golden
http://hebrewnations.com/articles/bible/proverbs/proverbs17.html
Proverbs 17:
26 To impose a fine on the innocent is not right,
or to flog the noble for their integrity.
Alternative translation:
# Also to punish the righteous is not good; to strike the generous due to their honesty. #
The Commentators (Metsudot) opine that this refers to evil people who resent goodness in others.
Another possibility is that:
In general it may be said that in our public and private life we should avoid penalizing those who have acted correctly
just because others have not.
27 One who spares words is knowledgeable;
one who is cool in spirit has understanding.
Keep calm. Hold yourself back and weigh matters with due consideration.
Even when in a hurry and/or under pressure keep calm and keep thinking. Do not let others or the situation fluster you.
28 Even fools who keep silent are considered wise;
when they close their lips, they are deemed intelligent.
This is obvious. If you have nothing to say, do not say it.
