Check it, the book of Deuteronomy 28 goes into the blessings he'll bestow on Israel if they are obedient, and the curses if they half step. For example...
Deut. 28:49-50
49 The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;
50 A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young:
Deut. 28:64-68
64 And the LORD shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.
65 And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind:
66 And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life:
67 In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.
68 And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.

Now ask yourself, which nation(s) have had the eagle as their symbol?
When was Israel sent to Egypt in ships AGAIN! and sold into bondage and no one saved them?
---------
There have been several captivities for Israel, one was Egypt, another was Babylon, another was Assyria. Each time God put them in the hands of their enemies for being so damn hard headed.
2 Esdras 13:39-48, goes into the some of the tribes departing to the Americas and setting up shop there...while I believe three tribes were left in Jerusalem. Anyway, these are the native americans, "indigenous" peoples of latin america and others...
There's also a book about the history of the Native American by James...I want to say Deer...anyway, he notes similar customs and believes them to be descendents of the Israelites.
That last Christopher Columbos movie that came out (the boring one) showed CC using the scriptures to prove there was another land and convince her to let him sail (I think these were the Solomon txts he used, Solomon had ships going all over).
------------
Check out the book from Babylon to Timbuktu. There is an excerpt regarding the Israelites fleeing Roman persecution and hiding in West Africa...which also explains some of the reasons for the slave trade by who we ignorantly believe to be our own people.
-------------
It's a lot of information to digest - Israelites are up and showing everyone that, negroes, native americans, cubans, dominicans, puertoricans, seminole indians, mexicans, west indians, are descended from the 12 Tribes. And that's true, but again, you're going to have mixture, it really is all based on your family line through your father...if you have some color on your pop's side of the family tree, consider yourself fortunate.
Damn, I gotta roll now. Just do some searchin' online, grab some books. You'll figure it out.
