Lost tribes of Israel?

I thought that how this is the Leftist's "hate the Jews" week, I would write more about Israel and Jews to try and negate, at least for the sake of appeasing my own conscience, the unreasonable hate emitting from the lefty quarters of Universities around the world.

Recently I had the pleasure of a long revealing discussion with a Jamacian lady who is Jewish and who claims that she can trace back her Jewish heritage to the time of Christ. Maybe it's a tall tale, but her Jewishness is not. According to her, Jamaica has a strong thriving Jewish community.

Now a recent BBC report here   draws a parallel between the Zimbabwan and South African tribe Lemba  to  Semitic origins.

.....The Lemba have many customs and regulations that tally with Jewish tradition. They wear skull caps, practise circumcision, which is not a tradition for most Zimbabweans, avoid eating pork and food with animal blood, and have 12 tribes.

They slaughter animals in the same way as Jewish people, and they put the Jewish Star of David on their tombstones. Members of the priestly clan of the Lemba, known as the Buba, were even discovered to have a genetic element also found among the Jewish priestly line.

"This was amazing," said Prof Tudor Parfitt, from the University of London. "It looks as if the Jewish priesthood continued in the West by people called Cohen, and in same way it was continued by the priestly clan of the Lemba.

"They have a common ancestor who geneticists say lived about 3,000 years ago somewhere in north Arabia, which is the time of Moses and Aaron when the Jewish priesthood started." Prof Parfitt is a world-renowned expert, having spent 20 years researching the Lemba, and living with them for six months.

The Lemba have a sacred prayer language which is a mixture of Hebrew and Arabic, pointing to their roots in Israel and Yemen.....
