Your posts are very good on this thread.

It’s my belief that the Phoenicians taught members of the tribe of Dan to sail the open seas and that Dan then colonized the British isles and the other Northern lands in the vicinity with members of the other tribes at around 1000BC to mine for tin and whatnot. It’s interesting looking at the old names: Danemark (Dan), Juteland (Judah), etc. Of course when the promised land upheavals took place at around 700BC and 600BC these people that migrated out to these isles hundreds of years earlier would have avoided those troubles with the Assyrians and Babylonians...and later the Romans in 70AD. They would have been intact until the Anglo Saxon invasions hundreds of years later...and even then the Anglo Saxons were probably their long lost brothers...when one reads the Assyrian cylinders and puts two and two together.

That's pretty funny on so many levels. The Phoenicians were already trading with Briton for tin before 1000 BC. Jumping to assumptions based on names is rather unscientific -- Danemark to Dan; what about the fact that the GReeks were called Danoi during Mycenean times and that the tribe of Dan was originally next to Philistia, would you then guess that the tribe of Dan was not of Hebrew origin but of Danoi/Greek/Sea Peoples origin?

Secondly, the Phoenicians would not want to help them. And why would the phoenicians not want to help the Israelites? Well, if you start calling the phoenicians by the name they call themselves, not the name the GReeks/Roman gave them (Punic). The Phoenicians called themselve CANAANITES. How could they forget the genocide of their relatives that had occured barely a couple of centuries earlier?

Thirdly, there is no proof for Israelite settlements by sea, on the other hand there is so much proof for Canaanite settlements like Sicily (Syracuse), southern Italy, CArthage, Cadiz (Spain) and for Greek settlements around the Black sea and into Sicily. Both the histories for this date back to the second millenium BC -- why is there no evidence for Israelites?

The earliest evidence starts from the Judean era when the Jews use the great Persian Empire as a roadway for them to travel

The Anglo-Saxons (Saxon from the Germanic word saxe for curved knife) are Aryans, just like the Celts, just like the Romans, Greeks, Indians, Persians, Armenians, Slavs -- and there were documented Aryans dating from the 2nd millenium BC (Hittites in Anatolia, Tocharians in Central Asia and Xinjiang, Indo-Iranis in Iran, northern India, the southern Russia steppes etc.
