	British Israelism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Some strands of British Israelism are based on the idea that large numbers of the tribes were deported by Sargon, king of Assyria, on the fall of Samaria in 721 BC.
		British Israelism was seen as amusing to some, fascinating to others, but it seems it was not crucial enough to form any type of organised structure until the late half of the nineteenth century at the hands of two men, Edward Hine and Edward Wheeler Bird.
		British Israelism often coincides with British Unionism, but it is worth noting that the Declaration of Arbroath, which declared Scottish independence in 1320 not only mentions a Scythian origin for the Scots, but also a Biblical one, which is used to justify Scotland's sovereignty over itself.

	[No title]
		British Israelism goes on to teach that only Anglo Saxon English peoples are Israel, thus negating the biblical truth that the descendents of the ten tribes are all over the west and even in the east in such nations as Iraq, Iran, Japan and China.
		Thus British Israelism is highly racist, as it refuses to recognize the global dispersion of the lost sheep of both houses of Israel, limiting it to the British Isles and to just one of the two houses.
		Historic British colonialism in the 1900's, with its stifling gag on human freedoms, was also a byproduct of a theology that claimed that since Israel was prophesied to be a possessor of the gates of all her enemies, that therefore world domination was their birthright as Joseph.

	"The Legend Of British-Israel" by C.T. Dimont, D.D.
		The movement bearing this name is so called because it maintains the theory that the British people are the descendants of the Ten Northern Tribes of Israel, commonly referred to as the Lost Ten Tribes.
		The British cannot be the descendants of the Lost Ten Tribes, because no such body of lost tribes exists or ever has existed.
		Equally unhappy is the suggestion that the name British is compounded of the Hebrew words berith and ish, meaning "man of the covenant." A glance at any philological dictionary will be enough to dispose of this absurdity.

	By Common Consent » British Israelism
		By the 1870s, British Israelism had become a formal movement among protestant Christians, complete with societies, chapters, and monthly magazines in both England and the U.S. Many Mormons who had already come to view themselves as Israelites were receptive to the movement.
		The teaching one might call “Mormon Israelism” was that Ephraim’s descendants were scattered among all nations, but that almost all Mormons were Ephraimites (for some, even “pure” Ephraimites) because the people that had responded to the missionary message were the select few with Israel in their veins.
		On the issue of to what extent is Israelism still among us, Armand Mauss wrote.“The final decades of the twentieth century brought a virtual end to the LDS focus on lineage and ethnicity in interpreting the spiritual histories and destines of the various peoples of the earth.
