That is simple, the Gymri or House of Omri migrated to Whales from Northern Israel shortly before the Assyrian deportation. They are pure-blooded Israelites. Not only is the evidence for this amazingly good, but there is no evidence at all that indicates otherwise.

Dear Jonathan:

You say that the Gymri or House of Omri, by which terms you appear to refer to the people of Wales (please, no Wh- in Wales!) in general, "are pure-blooded Israelites". Which naturally leads to the question of "blood": What evidence can you put forth as regards the genetic composition of these pure-blooded Israelites? Y-chromosome of the J haplogroup? What kind/s of mt-DNA? Please remember that you are making quite controversial claims here; you will need to be able to match this strong claim up with logical, coherent and scientifically sound arguments -- including a high correlation with the genetic data of Jewish kohaním and with Samaritans -- as well as actually showing this evidence (rather than just implying its existence), *including actual references* to reliable and publically available scientific sources, in order to be able to be taken seriously.


Kol tub,
