When I heard of it I could not belive my ears.
When I read about it at Wiki I could not believe my eyes.

The Britains consider themselves as one of the lost jewish tribes ????
Ok, they might have a little crisis when it comes to their identity (romano-celts, just celts, anglo-saxons, danes just saxons, other germanic tribes, roman auxiliaries rome sent there) but JEWS ?
In ancient times they considered themselves as noble celts fighting the romans.
In arthurian legends (when the anglo-saxons invaded the land) they consideres themselves as noble romano-celts or just romans.
A few centuries later they consideres themselves as noble anglo-saxons fighting the normans arrived.
Damn there was even a time when they thought of themselves as danes fighting saxons.
After that they felt beeing very french-like (got a king who lived in france most of the time and who gave a french fuck about britain).
OK, such things *can* happen...
But wtf causes people to consider themselves as jews ?
WTF has gone wrong on this island ?
Discuss !
