This is World Nut Daily at it’s dishonest worst. Farah’s obsession with nutbag “prophecy” ruins his credibility, which is sad because he sometimes has some significant scoops.
All the article says is that the Roman armies of the time were no longer composed of Roman freemen but largely of non-Roman “auxiliaries.”
This has never been a secret. Everyone who has a smattering of knowledge of Roman history knows this. The Romans drew on the peoples outside the Empire to fill the ranks of the legions. They had to, and not just in the late stages of the Empire but at this time period because there just weren’t enough old-Roman-Republic-type free men to staff the kind of army required to defend the Empire. And people wanted to enter Roman army service because it was a path inside the empire, a path to Roman citizenship.
But under whose command did these “auxiliary” troops destroy Jerusalem? Roman command.
The Empire had been multi-ethnic for centuries. People from “outside” ethnic groups had always served as provincial administrators and governors. They had always been recruited into the armies.
And the British did the same in India and throughout their empire and the French did the same and so on and so forth.
Farah’s a fool to publish this as breathless discovery.
Then again, he’s not a fool. It’s his niche and it drives web-traffic to his site, web-traffic of a certain credulous “prophecy”-drunk Bible-thumpers.
Farah is nothing if not sensationalist.
We saw this coming years ago when Farah added prophecy nutjob Hal Lindsey to the WND stable.
