4. It's not anti-semitic.

I know it’s controversial. I was raised a Southern Baptist AND a Preacher’s Kid, so you can imagine my first, second and third reaction. However, geology and archeology do NOT support the idea that Palestine was ancient Israel. Geology DOES support the idea that the Jews were originally from Yemen and Arabia. Doing any archeological work there is impossible because it’s too dangerous. Yemen is under attack from ISIL, being bombed by Russia and the USA, and who knows who else.

I'm sure there are "terrorists" there. They've always been there.

All I'm saying is, instead of just rejecting the author's conclusions, LOOK AT THE EVIDENCE! If the evidence doesn't hold up, then you can dismiss it.

BTW, thanks for the links.
