British-Israel-World Federation

For general information about Anglo-Israelism see the article by that name.

The British-Israel-World Federation is a an organization that was founded in London during 1919, although its roots can be traced back to the Nineteenth Century. At one time this organization enjoyed the patronage of members of the British Establishment including HRH Princess Alice of Athlone, the Duke of Buccleuch Kt.; the Rt. Hon. the Earl of Dysart; the Rt. Hon. the Countess-Dowager of Radnor; the Rt. Hon. Lord Gisborough and the Rt. Hon. W F Massey, Prime Minister of New Zealand.

Background

Now seen as a fringe organization with a cloudy past, the British-Israel-World Federation was born in the 19th Century during the days when the sun did not appear to be setting on the British Empire. For many years the organization maintained an office near Buckingham Palace. It later moved to the area of the renovated docklands of London until it finally removed itself from England.

The history of the organization closely follows the rise and fall of the prestige of the British monarchy and the power, majesty and might of the British Empire.
