You are wrong and btw British Israelism is misnamed it should be Anglo Israelism as it was the Anglos that first started it off and their desire to prove that Anglo Saxons were Royal Scythian and that the Scolotai which is one of the Scottish tribes were also Royal Scyths hence Anglo=Scot. For those of us who have grown up all our lives lol with wanna be Celts in Witchcraft and other trying to horn in why would this attempt surprise us? The scientific Gallic past and this movement are not connected at all. Some in this movement try to use the Gallic finds to trot out their beliefs but that does not in any way minimize the value of the original findings...there will always be wanna be druids and stuff....most of it is annoying ...though some lol! say at least it keeps putting the Celts top of mind....whatever floats ones boat I guess....at any rate we were enjoying this thread till you attempted to crash it lol! I would prefer to hear from fellow Celts like Eleana and such who this does truly concern and not just turn it into another fiasco thread which usually happens when you are around....lol!
Actually I was a bit wrong the Protestants were the ones that drove it along and one of the guys that started it was mentally ill.......note click on Scythians in Wiki in this Anglo thread and you will see that indeed Gaels are to be included as those with Scythian ties and they did have Celtic Scythian ties and intermingling.......but for the Anglos to drag the poor Scots into being the same stock...well again back to Scientific finds and future digs.....sigh.....of course many Anglos have since married into our people so this is another thing we will have to put up with lol!.....

The idea that they are one and the same is flat out rejected because there is too many holes in that theory.
