There must be some very important reasons why this trivial topic of The Lost Tribes of Israel rises to such signifance.

Do you suppose it is because so many very large institutions are built on a foundation of sand? If not, why should they worry so? The winds of change have begun blowing again putting every house of cards in peril.

Can you elaborate on this a little?
What are the very large institutions that are built on foundations of sand?
What are the houses of cards that are imperiled by the winds of change?
What exactly are these "wind of change?"

Thanks in advance.

It's so difficult for a mere lurker to determine who is making more sense here. You keep providing links to what seems to be solid scholarship, while exposing the false credentials of the "scholars" for the other side. That's impressive. However, the other side keeps ignoring your evidence and they claim that you're an idiot. So who is a lurker to belive?
