“Hayovel Ministry”- Candid Reflections from the Haaretz Article


Let me be clear. Haaretz is a vile left-wing rag fit to use as kittie litter. Yet like many writers and researchers, I frequently scour the sewer of the web to see what’s out there, and to stay abreast of issues from different perspectives, including the worst expressions of self-hating Jews. In a similar vein, back in the day, I would occasionally pick up a copy of the virulently anti-Semitic NY newspaper, “The Amsterdam News” to stay abreast of what black supremacists of urban America/New York had to say about Jews. It was a mouthpiece for the Khalid Muhammads, the Louis Farrakhan’s, the Al Sharptons, and the Jesse Jacksons of the world. After scouring the paper and clipping out any pertinent data, the paper itself was good for lining a gerbil cage or creating a Millwall brick.

And so it is with Haaretz. Fortunately, we can read many of these rags online today which saves us from having to purchase such filth. Haaretz offers a window into the twisted brain of extremist left-wing Jews. I forced myself to read a curious article in Haaretz about the notorious “Hayovel Ministry” and other evangelical missionary groups who contribute so much money and voluntarism in Judea and Samaria. The import of the Haaretz investigative article, Inside the Evangelical Money Flowing into the West Bank by Judy Maltz, is NOT the author’s leftist biased positions. The bias is nakedly apparent. More interesting were the statements and perspectives of several of the key Jews and gentiles involved in this madness. In large measure, the article confirmed many of the troubling things we have been saying for years, both in the candor of responses as well as the lies, distortions, and gross generalizations. 

Ten Things We Learned from The Recent Haaretz Article on “Hayovel Ministry” and other evangelical organizations.

1. Perverted Priority: The article illustrates that Haaretz doesn’t give a damn about Jewish souls or the spiritual dangers of evangelism. They are bothered that so much money is going to communities they deem outside of Israel, in what they disgracefully believe to be “occupied territory”. This is nothing new. Haaretz is the voice of Jewish secular Hellenism. Yet as the cliché goes, a stopped clock inadvertently records a truth twice a day. The writers of Haaretz hate Jews who live in the liberated areas. They care what the Jew-hating world thinks of us. They care as much as the Torah account of events or our claim to the land, as I care about whatever upcoming transgender festival may be coming to Tel Aviv in the spring. And they hate Torah values which oppose the morality of the swine. The real tragedy is that a dozen religious newspapers should be regularly investigating and writing about these issues from a proper Torah perspective. 

2. Normalization: Jews and Christians admit that their efforts to normalize have removed much of the past public opposition. Yet their assurances that MOST rabbis in Israel support such interfaith relationships and activities are inaccurate. Let’s be honest for a moment. Most Jews (including Rabbis) in Israel don’t even know about these issues. Those that have a vague sense cannot comprehend the full extent of the problem, certainly not these new peculiar marriages, and when they are apprised, they often express horror. Furthermore, such people often lack the temperament or the ability to research the issue and take steps to address the problem.  

It is equally inaccurate to say that MOST rabbis in the Shomron support such measures. To my knowledge, there are only two very prominent personalities who have taken an open position on these issues. Many prominent Rabbis in Israel have issued rulings in opposition to accepting funds or forging relationships with Christians. For an excellent compilation of classic and more recent Torah positions, check out: https://jewishisrael.com/page/halachic-rulings-opinions-and  Nevertheless, it is true that a terrible normalization has occurred over the years through a savvy campaign of hiding information from the public, abrogating basic halachic/hashkafic mores relating to interfaith dialogue, sanitizing "Hayovel" and other groups, isolating rabbis from missionary experts, and demonizing the few vocal activists on the scene.

FACT: Tommy Waller has a better chance of speaking with Har Bracha’s Rabbi Melamed than good Jews on the scene who were denied an audience with him over the years. 

FACT: Several of the most knowledgeable experts on the scene are righteous converts to Judaism who lived as evangelicals for years. The attempts to destroy their reputations by certain people is a chillul Hashem and a blatant violation of the biblical prohibition. 

3.Our Tax Dollars: The government will now be gifting Hayovel $16, 000 a year. This number will surely grow in the coming years. The government doesn’t GIVE anyone money. We Jews in Israel are now funding Hayovel with our tax dollars. An absolute outrage. Sixteen thousand annual dollars is merely the beginning of what will become a pot of gold for them. It will also free up their own capital for other nefarious projects.

4. Unscrupulous Business: Many Jewish businesses who profit from Hayovel Ministry’s free agriculture labor are doing very well financially. Not only are they involved in halachically prohibited labor, but they are also denying their fellow Jewish citizens employment, and affecting the businesses of any Jews who might refrain from such free labor. Being profitable businesses, they could pay Jews today, but greed has taken over. Call them out and they get defensive. When the author of the article asked the owner of Tura Winery some probing questions, he got defensive:

To hear it from (Nir) Lavie, there is no reason to take pity on him or his business.

Asked if the winery was profitable, he responds: “Baruch Hashem” (“Thank God”). He becomes more defensive, though, when asked how much money he saves from all the free help. “And what about the kibbutzim?” he responds angrily. “They didn’t save money with all their volunteers from Holland and Sweden?” 

He has a point, of course, except that volunteers on kibbutzim traditionally received room and board in exchange for their work. Hayovel volunteers do not; they are required to cover all their expenses on their own. 

This is big business. Many self-appointed leaders, rabbis, and organizations have made lucrative businesses and are earning large salaries courtesy of these obscene relationships with evangelical missionaries. “Lipkin Tours” dominates a peculiar form of Christian tourism, catering largely to some of the most aggressive missionary organizations in the world.

5. Pious Frauds: Hayovel likes to play the righteous card about how they are fulling their part to bring "restoration" (keyword for their nefarious missionary agenda). When asked if they would take money from vintners who are profitable, they play the pious card about not wanting to take their money. The truth is that they already profit with percentages of sales from the wine purchases going to Hayovel. The image of pious pilgrims is a farce. The Waller family are doing very well. It is the foolish pilgrim who pays for his volunteerism.

6Open Purses: Jews know that for every program or business they want to start in the liberated areas, they can easily reach out to any number of prominent organizations to get the money that would be otherwise harder to procure. Evangelicals are brilliant when it comes to finding niches to peddle their charitable wares. From preying on forgotten vulnerable Jews living in depressed regions to purchasing MRI machines in a country which until recently had so few of them (shame on Israel!), they know that Jews want beautiful parks and need ambulances. In a country which may deprive them of niceties and necessities, the lure of Christian generosity is too tempting for many people.

7. Arrogance: Hayovel and evangelical groups are brazen, a clear reflection of how Jewish leadership dropped the ball. It is also true that many good individuals abandoned the fight after frivolous lawsuits from powerful Christian interests, or because they were tarred with libel and slander from many of the Jews involved in this sin. As Rabbi Meir Kahane often stated, “those who can’t debate, defame”. Much has changed since the days when the Waller’s had to look the other way each time they met a fellow Christian for coffee or visited their notorious friends, the messianic Ortiz family in Ariel.

8. Not Only Anglos: It is not only those Jews with an Anglo background who enable these predators. Many of the most prominent players in Israel are native-born Israelis who discovered the evangelical cash cow. All that was required was a willingness to tread on the forbidden ground for money and other interests, and to close their ears to the religious hymns being sung/played while the harvesters picked away at the vines. As Maltz notes in the article:

“On Haaretz's visit to Har Bracha, volunteers from the United States, Sweden, Norway, Hong Kong, Austria and New Zealand could be heard singing Christian hymns as they picked grapes in the vineyards owned by Tura Winery. Some of the women had babies strapped to their backs as they moved up and down the rows.

9. Clever Tactics: Hayovel’s normalization is s tragic illustration of just how effective "Relational Evangelism" can be. It is the most pernicious and successful form of evangelism since it opened doors with religious Jews; an unprecedented thing in Jewish history. Missionizing is more than baptizing people. They are breaking down barriers, changing the mindset and values of Jews on the issue of Jesus, and planting roots within the framework of “restoration”. In truth all evangelicals had to do was exchange the thirsty sword for the sweet nothings of a forked tongue, and Jews would bite the bait. Who knew that the tongue could do what the sword could not?

10. Unspoken War: Most Jews don’t know what is happening with the evangelical incursion. Many don’t care. Many lie to themselves and speak of “pragmatism” and “righteous allies”, neither of which applies to these evangelical opportunists. Perhaps Jews need to start researching some of the wines they drink on Shabbat and get a history of the process. Besides the uniquely crafty tactics of Hayovel, the impact of the millions of evangelical dollars coming into Israel is impossible to calibrate, and those Jews who have the most to lose are those most vulnerable to the toxic sweetness. These would be those who draw near to the church for psychological, financial, and cultural/religious reasons. Some of the more outrageous street missionaries of Israel’s depressed area are experts at preying on the destitute and the elderly. Evangelicals spread their money everywhere, from the coarse street performer Jacob Damkani types to the more respectable outlets who zealously avoid such garish tactics. 

We have three threats exhibited in the article: 1) biased Jewish Hellenists who don’t like religious Jews or evangelicals because neither has a tolerance for abortion on demand or gay rights. 2) enabling Jews who flout Halacha and halachic precedent to form forbidden relationships. 3) Brother Esau types who play the part of Santa year-round. 

Chanukah and Purim epitomize the two types of war Jews face throughout history. The threat of physical and spiritual extinction. Every G-d fearing Jew knows that missionaries deserve the same fate as physical Amalekites. This is basic Torah, despite what spokespeople for Israel365 may say on the matter. Evangelicals and Jews are not natural allies. We are the most natural of enemies. They wish to replace us, and when that term became provocative, they developed/evolved the doctrines of restoration (Esav Exposed) to say what they really want to say in nicer ways. 

Chanukah may be over, but as I noted recently, the war for Chanukah is never over. It is a lifelong war until the arrival of the true Jewish Moshiach; a figure who will be a man of flesh and blood and not some made-up "reincarnated" composite of ancient pagan religions.

Hashem, give us the will and the wisdom to combat and destroy our enemies. Whether it be the sword-wielding crusader, the smiling apostate, or the Ishmaelite fiend with a vest of explosives strapped to his person. Or the grinning “Brother Esau” who wishes to hug us with a deadly embrace. Beware his teeth

Hayovel Ministry-The Poison Apple of Relational Evangelism (AUDIO)


Reflections on the infamous "Hayovel Ministry" in Israel. Despite patriarch Tommy Waller's insistence that he did teshuva (repentance) from what he now acknowledges was a missionary past, he exposes that he and his organization are still committed to evangelizing Jews. It is 2018, and Hayovel still associates with overt missionaries and sells messianic material on their online shop. Below are screenshots of a messianic daily planner, "Daily Bread" which can be purchased on their website. A cursory glance of the screenshots says everything you need to know. Given the naked agenda, it is clear that Jews who continue to defend Hayovel are either insane or liars. Only a fool denies what is evident to anyone with even a rudimentary mass of grey matter. 

The article referenced in the audio: Anatomy of a Missionary

Screenshots from the "Daily Bread" planner:


One of many "goodies from the Hayovel shop. The fact that Hayovel's webpage features such an obvious messianic text reflects the degree which they no longer feel that they have to hide their beliefs and associations from their Jewish defenders. I doubt that most of Hayovel's Jewish supporters even glance at the website. Tragically, one wonders if the presence of a messianic journal would bother them. Personally I doubt it.More importantly, what does this say about Hayovel? Would any xtian organization truly opposed to missionizing sell such material? 

Tommy Waller is crafty. He has a knack for duping Jews and the many silly pilgrims who enrich him and his family, under the guise of doing "the Lord's work." The ability to travel across the world with ease and to be able to purchase a million dollar plus complex in Missouri shows that this isn't merely about following what he believes to be the bible. Like many before him, he has discovered the golden goose of evangelical enterprises.


Consider how low these predators go to infiltrating the Jewish world. On the left we see an example of messianics usurping the holy blessing which traditional Jews make prior to studying Torah, followed by a messianic style blessing which invokes the name of "that man".

They dont care. Hayovel knows that anytime some heat is placed upon them, they need only send out Tommy Waller to make a video where he sheds crocodile tears for the Jewish people. Yet the presence of such ideological religious materials in their shop shows precisely where they stand. Nothing has changed. Hayovel has simply mastered the rhetoric of apologetics and explanations, after years of making crude mistakes. It also helps that "yeshivas" run by religious Jews feed them with the education of learning about Jewish mores, lifestyles, and distorted interpretations of Judaism; which aid them in their ability to speak a more kosher tongue when dealing with Jews.



The messianic blessing above is grotesque. Perverting our sacred blessings on Torah to include idolatry.



In the screenshot on the left, we see another favorite tactic. Messianics often cite and use standard texts used by traditional Jews. This allows them to throw out terms such as "Artscroll" and "chabad", and share the lingo of those whose lives are immersed in Jewish Torah study. This bizarre usurping and usage of conventional Jewish names and organizations reflect the attempt to normalize the pagan with contemporary Jewish experiences.


Let me be clear. Any Jew who associates with Hayovel or defends them will have to answer for their sins one day. Once upon a time, such a statement would be obvious since this kind of madness was impossible to fathom in supposed Torah circles. We live in lunatic times, where the ignoramuses do as they wish without fear of Rabbinic reprisals or being socially ostracized.

"Zehut": Soft On Missionaries?

Monday, June 18, 2018

Who Let Them In? Part I (Podcast)

My reflections on the sudden feigned concern about missionaries, coming from certain "hasbara" circles. Ironically, some of the loudest voices come from those self-appointed religious voices who collaborated with evangelical missionaries. A foundation for a series of future audio posts providing further analysis. Warning: No quarter will be given. Part II will address Moshe Feiglin's (Zehut party) April article which addressed this outrage. My problem with Feiglin is one of intellectual honesty and integrity. Is Zehut's house really clean itself? https://www.zehutinternational.com/single-post/2018/04/27/PM’s-Serious-Identity-Blunder

Our Orphaned Generation

“Woe to our orphan generation.” -Rabbi Meir Kahane

The following meme was  recently circulated on Facebook, following the outrageous spectacle of religious Jews "studying Torah" with evangelical missionaries in the Knesset. Fortunately, the meme's simple message was right on target and it was perceived as such by many sensible Jews who shared it widely on social media. Sadly I cannot give kudos to the anonymous person who created it, but I can share it and provide some additional context. I feel confident that the meme's creator would agree with my sentiments.

In the past, Yishai Fleisher and a host of other self-appointed religious Jewish advocates slandered those of at the “Stop Hayovel” blog who fight the missionary menace. Our crime? We pointed out their public associations with evangelical missionaries. We made no accusations that THEY themselves are missionaries, but we correctly pointed out that they are aligned with some of the most dangerous evangelical missionaries on the scene today.

There is no choice for any Jew who is concerned with this menace. We cannot remain silent while these outrages persist. So we must be aggressive and uncompromising as we publicize ugly truths. With this in mind, it must be said that the recent “Torah session” in the Knesset with notorious missionaries constituted an unprecedented chillul HaShem

Fact: Hayovel are a missionary organization. We have documented it ad nauseum for years now, along with other activists, who’ve documented Hayovel’s clever journey to plant roots in Israel. The evidence is overwhelming. 

Fact: Dr. Jim Garlow and Rosemary Schindler of the missionary Skyline Church are spiritual predators. 


To be blunt. This was indeed a “Torah” session with missionaries. This was worse than mere interfaith-dialogue, which is halachically prohibited. Yet Fleisher boasts and speaks of dreams in his Facebook post (see image on left). His dream is our nightmare. Research Skyline Church, Dr. Jim Garlow and Rosemary Schindler, yemach sh’mam v’zichram.

This abomination in the Knesset was nothing less than the fusion of baal with Torah.Something to tear kriya over, and not something to celebrate. Something against Torah and sanity. Something which trampled on Rav Soloveitchik’s ironclad ruling opposing interfaith dialogue, as found in his classic essay “Confrontation”

Funny how Fleisher mentions the “Schindler Society” but neglects to mention their leadership of the missionary Skyline Church, which is merged with a messianic “Jewish” congregation targeting Jews. The Tree of Life Messianic Jewish Congregation. 




So enough of this nonsense of denying what is apparent. Shame on Tuly Weisz, Yishai Fleisher, Yehuda Glick, and any other Jewish attendee. Those who wear head-coverings and purport to speak in the name of Torah will have to answer for this public abomination. Truly, we are an orphaned generation. 
  • When will good Jews, both the religious leadership and laity, speak out against this outrage? 
  • When will religious Jewry unite with an uncompromising voice of outrage, on an issue which should resonate across the religious continuum? 
  • And when will those Jews who have the chutzpah to flaunt these associations, be excoriated and ostracized for this egregious behavior?
In the interim, I hear crickets, as Achashveirish’s feast is re-enacted with Brother Esau. The recent Knesset abomination and like-minded outrages will surely bring upon us the Divine retribution promised by the neviim. The land can only tolerate so much filth before a terrible purging occurs. And these outrages are perpetrated in large measure by those who claim to be religious Jews. 

Where There Are No Men
Indeed there are no men, or very few of them, fighting this battle. There are few women also, but in a battle where only few fight, men are outnumbered by a handful of women. The silence of the Nation is staggering. The willful blindness of others a thing to weep over. Most tragic of all are those good Jews who agree with us, but are afraid to open their mouths. Sadly, this includes some very prestigious Torah scholars.

StandWithUs? The clarion call of hasbara impotence.  I disagree.
  • Don’t stand with those who enable and empower our physical and spiritual enemies with weak-kneed shtadlanus
  • Don’t stand with those who wouldn’t know how to defeat the Arab/Islamic savages if the solution hit them in the head. 
  • Don’t stand with those who align with our spiritual enemies out of fear of Islam and Arabs and a desperate need for friends. Even those of a false persuasion.
So what does one do if he gives a damn about preserving Jewish Identity? 
  1. Start by sharing this post and getting involved in educating Jews about what is occurring with our tax dollars in the Knesset, and the general spiritual violence occurring in the vineyards of Samaria.
  2.  Let it be known that the most recent phenomenon of relational evangelism throughout Eretz Yisrael is being aided and abetted with the help of religious Jews. Educate yourselves and spread the message. Inform your local Rabbis and religious leaders. Demand that they get involved.
  3. Above all, name names! This is not an amorphous vague faceless sin. The active players are often well-known, their personal involvement a badge of honor for them. If they wish to be known, let the public know the full story. A terrible tale of Jewish complicity and collusion with today’s clever evangelical missionaries.
So much more to come. Purim Sameach!

No Place For Slander (AUDIO)





These are my latest reflections on evangelicals who smile at Jews while sharing sushi with them in Hebron. And on the misguided Jews who repeatedly fall for their ruse. This is also a statement of clarification in response to those Jews who falsely accuse us of slander, and claim that we believe that THEY THEMSELVES (these Jews) support "missionary activity". Lies repeated often enough remain lies regardless of what people believe. Had any of these people actually read or listened to anything posted on this blog, they would know that no one has accused them of being missionaries themselves. Only of being friends with missionaries.

Most of these misguided Jews either naively believe that these people and groups are harmless, or have the arrogance to believe that they can play a dangerous game of "strange bedfellows". Some hasbara types are indeed corrupt, and more than a few are corrupt in terms of their warped Torah perspective. One often hears the refrain of "good intentions". Good intentions? Good intentions have destroyed better men than these. 

Our detractors glibly hurl the charge of "slander/libel" at my colleagues and I, whenever we tackle these troubling issues. They avoid addressing our questions or the evidence we produce. Their usage of the term renders them guilty of the crime themselves, since none of us are involved in any form of slander. Nor are we attacking "good Jews", which is a clever way to evade responsibility for one's actions. We are simply calling out public Jewish personalities for what we believe are dangerous alliances with the enemies of Am Yisrael. No personal animus fuels us, nor is there any personal gain from addressing these upsetting issues. On the contrary. Speaking unpleasant truths usually comes at a cost.

I regularly use the term "enemies" to paint evangelicals, precisely how a proper Jewish approach would deem any group harmful to us. Evangelicals are indeed our enemies, and no amount of "Israeli" support can detract from their insidious spiritual warfare on our sacred Torah. Stating truth and exposing the irresponsible public behavior of public people does not constitute slander/libel.

Once upon a time, religious Jews recognized that Esau's kiss was the kiss of spiritual death. Yet today, we have "religious" Jews meeting and greeting, and befriending and breaking bread with these vipers. Teaching Torah to missionaries. Giving tours to messianic congregations in Israel. Giving them a foothold in Jewish communities on Jewish land that should be used to house other Jews.

I choose to not remain silent, regardless of the threats of bullies. If I am engaged in slander or libel, the logical thing to do would be to hire a lawyer and serve me my papers. If nothing else, have the attorney clarify the precise nature of the supposed libel/slander, and if I find your arguments convincing or I recognize errors on my part, I will publicly apologize and make the appropriate corrections. I have never been afraid to apologize if I am wrong. But just to hurl the terms around doesn't make it so, even if one hopes that something will stick. 

Contrary to the lie that many Jews espouse, evangelicals aren't our "brothers" or righteous gentiles. They have the same agenda that their forebears had hundreds of years ago. But they are wiser today and they've discovered clever ways to earn the confidence of Jews. Consider the fact that "Hayovel", a veritable missionary organization, is well-entrenched in Har Bracha today, with the blessings of the town's rabbi. Would such a thing have even been possible twenty years ago? Jews argue that they are friends, and yet they arrogantly hawk messianic bibles on their website. After Tommy Waller's supposed and much heralded recent "repentance"!

Jews can ignore this perversion as long as they wish. At the end of the day, chareidi, daati leumi, and chiloni will all pay the price. One day soon, we will all suffer the consequence of these dangerous alliances.

Don't Give Me Facts! Portrait Of A Jewish "Hayovel" Supporter


This could be any number of Tommy Waller's Jewish friends. You could show them footage of Tommy Waller dunking a Jew for a baptism, and they would argue that he was teaching him to swim. The problem isn't a lack of evidence. The evidence is overwhelming. These sad Jews just don't give a damn. Facts mean nothing to them. And in the face of reasonable questions, the response is defamation.

When Blessings Become A Curse


H/T Tomer Devorah for sharing this video: Portrait of "Hayovel" missionaries perverting our sacred Sukkot with pagan mockery, all in the worship of their man-god. A grotesque spectacle of xtian women co-opting the dress and head-coverings of religious Jewish women. Bearded men waving lulavim, flailing them about with fervor, as they sing their songs of praise for idol worship. All under the confines of a Sukkah, nestled in the confines of the closed religious community of Har Bracha. Funny, how the Har Bracha website makes no mention of missionaries dwelling in the yishuv.

Pagans love garish, outlandish, spectacles. This immediately comes to mind:



  • How many religious Jews in Israel and abroad know what is happening in Har Bracha and the greater Shomron region, as evangelical missionaries plant their roots and work on forming "relationships" with Jews?
  • How many religious rabbis are aware of this sin? How many open their mouths and scream out in outrage?
  • Does anyone really give a damn?
Who would have thought such a thing possible? 

As always, we ask the question: Who let them in? In this particular case, the town's Rabbi, R Eliezer Melamed, gave Hayovel permission (and his blessing!) with his radical halachic psak (hebrew original) English version). JewishIsrael's Rabbi Sholom Gold's excellent response can be found here: http://jewishisrael.ning.com/profiles/blogs/jumping-the-geula-gun-a-response-by-rabbi-sholom-gold-to-rabbi-el

Daati-Leumi Gone Wild? Or are they just plain mad?

Shabbtai Tzvi would have a field day with this unbridled messianic fervor,which has much more in common with xtianity than anything remotely Jewish. Spitting on G-d's miracles and the miracle of Eretz Yisrael. Brother Esau sure knew what he was doing when he put down his bloody sword and put on his cowboy hat. All he needed were unscrupulous Jews, and a big sack of gelt

And then the enablers of these evangelical asps have the nerve to complain to us about our website featuring a "Wall of Shame"! What would King David and Hezekiah have done with Hayovel, and how would they address those Jews who gave them a foothold in the land? What about Elijah? The early Chashmonaim? What would the Gaonim, Rishonim, and Acharonim say? This is an unprecedented chillul Hashem in Jewish history. Where in our history did religious Jews allow missionaries to set up shop in a Torah community?

"They aren't missionaries, our detractors claim." They need to open their damn eyes already. Stop playing games with us. The evidence is overwhelming. Hayovel are spiritual predators.

"Wall of Shame"? Appropriately titled. And to those who have a problem with it, if the shoe fits, hit yourself in the head with it. The Wall of Shame is for those with zero shame. Zehut's new golden-boy Yishai Fleischer recently came on this blog to hurl insults and lies, without addressing the issues we raise. Evidently, he would rather rail against JewishIsrael and others (including us) who call out everyone who has a hand in this sin. 

Yishai Fleischer seems upset. Perhaps he deemed the #8 slot in the Zehut primaries to be an insult? Perhaps he wants to skate from his associations? Perhaps he is unhappy that there are cracks in Zehut's camp? In any event if Zehut's Moshe Feiglin wants to prove that he cares more about the missionary issue in Israel than the ever pressing issue of cannabis legalization, the public needs to know why a supporter of Hayovel and Mike Huckabee is even in the party.



As I always say, it isn't personal, It's just halacha. I am pleased to hear from inside sources that there is discontent in the ranks of Zehut's followers. Some are wondering the very same thing. And many are bothered. It won't go away by itself. And perhaps the Zehut stage will be another vehicle to expose the evil Waller family and their nefarious agenda.

May the names and memories of the Waller family be obliterated.

When Blessings Become A Curse


H/T Tomer Devorah for sharing this video: Portrait of "Hayovel" missionaries perverting our sacred Sukkot with pagan mockery, all in the worship of their man-god. A grotesque spectacle of xtian women co-opting the dress and head-coverings of religious Jewish women. Bearded men waving lulavim, flailing them about with fervor, as they sing their songs of praise for idol worship. All under the confines of a Sukkah, nestled in the confines of the closed religious community of Har Bracha. Funny, how the Har Bracha website makes no mention of missionaries dwelling in the yishuv.

Pagans love garish, outlandish, spectacles. This immediately comes to mind:



  • How many religious Jews in Israel and abroad know what is happening in Har Bracha and the greater Shomron region, as evangelical missionaries plant their roots and work on forming "relationships" with Jews?
  • How many religious rabbis are aware of this sin? How many open their mouths and scream out in outrage?
  • Does anyone really give a damn?
Who would have thought such a thing possible? 

As always, we ask the question: Who let them in? In this particular case, the town's Rabbi, R Eliezer Melamed, gave Hayovel permission (and his blessing!) with his radical halachic psak (hebrew original) English version). JewishIsrael's Rabbi Sholom Gold's excellent response can be found here: http://jewishisrael.ning.com/profiles/blogs/jumping-the-geula-gun-a-response-by-rabbi-sholom-gold-to-rabbi-el

Daati-Leumi Gone Wild? Or are they just plain mad?

Shabbtai Tzvi would have a field day with this unbridled messianic fervor,which has much more in common with xtianity than anything remotely Jewish. Spitting on G-d's miracles and the miracle of Eretz Yisrael. Brother Esau sure knew what he was doing when he put down his bloody sword and put on his cowboy hat. All he needed were unscrupulous Jews, and a big sack of gelt

And then the enablers of these evangelical asps have the nerve to complain to us about our website featuring a "Wall of Shame"! What would King David and Hezekiah have done with Hayovel, and how would they address those Jews who gave them a foothold in the land? What about Elijah? The early Chashmonaim? What would the Gaonim, Rishonim, and Acharonim say? This is an unprecedented chillul Hashem in Jewish history. Where in our history did religious Jews allow missionaries to set up shop in a Torah community?

"They aren't missionaries, our detractors claim." They need to open their damn eyes already. Stop playing games with us. The evidence is overwhelming. Hayovel are spiritual predators.

"Wall of Shame"? Appropriately titled. And to those who have a problem with it, if the shoe fits, hit yourself in the head with it. The Wall of Shame is for those with zero shame. Zehut's new golden-boy Yishai Fleischer recently came on this blog to hurl insults and lies, without addressing the issues we raise. Evidently, he would rather rail against JewishIsrael and others (including us) who call out everyone who has a hand in this sin. 

Yishai Fleischer seems upset. Perhaps he deemed the #8 slot in the Zehut primaries to be an insult? Perhaps he wants to skate from his associations? Perhaps he is unhappy that there are cracks in Zehut's camp? In any event if Zehut's Moshe Feiglin wants to prove that he cares more about the missionary issue in Israel than the ever pressing issue of cannabis legalization, the public needs to know why a supporter of Hayovel and Mike Huckabee is even in the party.

And many are bothered. It won't go away by itself. And perhaps the Zehut stage will be another vehicle to expose the evil Waller family and their nefarious agenda.

Yishai Fleisher calls Hayovel "Settlers in the land of Israel"

Flattering Hayovel missionaries several months ago.
Yishai Fleisher on his show on the Land of Israel Network (starting at 26:37):
"Then, after that, I went to see our good friends, our gentile friends, who have become settlers in the land of Israel. 
I'm talking about the Hayovel organization, and the volunteers who come, the christian volunteers who come to till the land, and to pick the vines of Judea and Samaria to make Jewish wine in the land of Israel, and to fulfill biblical prophecy. 
I got to see the Waller folks, and all of their amazing volunteers, and to address them a little bit, Malka did as well, and to see their beautiful community right next to Har Bracha in Samaria. Har Bracha is Har Gerizim, the Mount Gerizim. 
And check out Hayovel, H - A - Y - O - V - E - L, to connect with them. If you're not Jewish and you're listening to the show, you've gotta come on a Hayovel tour, working tour, believe me you're gonna be getting up at four in the morning to work the fields of Samaria, and you will love every minute of it."

Pagans In The Field

Evangelical pagans harvesting the fields of Samaria. Striking similarities with the pagans of other places who sacrificed and danced for their pagan deity. Strange fires, strange wine, & strange practices. All of this comes with a heavy cost, which the average Jew cannot even fathom. What is happening in the Shomron today, where religious Jews opened the door to missionaries for greed and power, provides further proof that the attraction to idolatry (of one form or another) still resonates in the hearts of many Jews.

Har Bracha: Pagans Welcome

Possible promotional options for Har Bracha, the religious yishuv in the Shomron where Hayovel's evangelical missionaries keep as their home base in Israel. All with the blessings of the town's rabbi and the yeshiva's Rosh HaYeshiva, Eliezer Melamed. You can't make this stuff up. Truth is indeed stranger (and scarier) than fiction.

Snakes In The Grass


Who is that bearded man, you ask? Why that's David "the Hebrew" Axelrod, back when he still kept his beard and peyot. Evidently an allergy or something compelled him in his mid-middle age years to suddenly get rid of it. I suspect it was a different kind of allergy. 

In any event, this 2013 video features a shameless Axelrod calling for more evangelical missionaries to come for the "harvest". Since then, David has never let up and today he continues to facilitate our spiritual enemies by teaching missionaries "Torah" at Root Source. He is one of many Jews who feed from the hand of Brother Esau, and teach them the kinds of tools, mores, and perspectives that allow them to entrench themselves in Jewish life under the pretext of discovering "Jewish roots" of their faith.

There are many words to describe people like David Haivri. Ironically, many of those who defend him today, would have excoriated him some 15 years ago when he still identified with Rabbi Meir Kahane's teachings. Having betrayed those beliefs, they now view him as a friend. 

Organizations such as Root Source mastered the art of using unprincipled, ignorant, naive, shameless, and corrupt individuals to further their goals. As dangerous as "Jews for Jesus" is, they aren't a fraction of the threat that groups such as Hayovel and Root Source present to the Jewish community. Jews for Jesus doesn't have a headquarters in Har Bracha and the blessing of the town's rabbi. Such a thing would never be. Nor do they have a staff of Jews acting as teachers to missionaries, as Root Source can boast, so that they can teach these predators more tricks to be more comfortable with Jews.

It's time for people to learn that people like David Haivri are not noble Jews fostering relationships with x-tians. These "x-tian friends" as they would have it, are missionaries, whose agenda is naked. 

How many videos do we have to post of Hayovel showing their true agenda, until Jews open their eyes? 

How many screenshots of Hayovel's connections with messianic organizations do we have to document, even after Tommy Waller's supposed 2011 teshuva process?

With all the evidence out there, anyone who defends these unscrupulous sorts will have to answer to G-d one day. Remember, even activist David Wilder from Hebron (whose views on evangelical relations are certainly different from the ones we espouse) was honest enough to admit his mistake, and declare that Tommy Waller, Hayovel's smiling, bearded, patriarch; was indeed a missionary: http://jewishisrael.ning.com/page/david-wilder-retracts-on-cufi-article


Those of us who contribute to this forum don't hate goyim, G-d forbid. We don't hate all x-tians as our Jewish detractors falsely claim, even if we believe that according to Torah, all gentiles need to embark on the true path of the Noachide Laws which necessitates a rejection of their current beliefs. These xtians are missionaries and such individuals we do indeed hate. Soul snatchers with smiles. Snakes in the grass. And so, we are unrelenting in exposing them. Along with their Jewish enablers. 

Collaboration with the enemy is an egregious sin. 

"Hayovel" and the Wallers
