“No soup for you,” says Ben & Jerry’s

20 Sept 2022, Samaria: If you’re in Samaria while Jewish, then you don’t get any ice cream.

That’s the message from Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, of Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream.

 

If you’re Jewish while in Samaria, then you don’t get any ice cream, say Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield of Ben & Jerry’s. Jerusalem Post, 20 Sept 2022 pg 6.

Living here in Samaria, I must say, it sure is nice to have the freedom to choose Ben & Jerry’s branded flavors in the local supermarket from time to time.

Even though Ben & Jerry sold their company to Unilever, they retained control of the brand’s “social mission,” and on that basis, they sought to manipulate Unilever to pull the brand license from the Israeli company which holds the rights to produce the ice cream here.

However, Unilever said this is not social, but an operational issue, and Unilever has completed the sale of the rights, in Israel.  So now the courts will have to decide.

Ben & Jerry’s was a Jewish American company until its sale to Unilever, and apparently, Ben Cohen, Jerry Greenfield, and their board, wish to use their brand name to protest.

In Israel, the brand is licensed, manufactured with Israeli ingredients, sold and distributed by a Jewish Israeli small business owner.  That is, unless Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield in the USA get their way.

Highway Sinkhole on Shabbat

18 Sept 2022: Sinkhole opened up in one lane of the Ayalon Highway on Shabbat, the 17th of September.  While religious Jews generally do not drive on Shabbat, secular Jews, Muslims, and Christians who do not observe Shabbat use cars as they wish. This sinkhole in a Tel Aviv highway suddenly appeared during Shabbat; thankfully, no cars fell in.  Generally, each town and city passes zoning laws which determine how many shops (if any) or restaurants are permitted to open on Shabbat; there is some variety place to place because of the different religious views which people hold.

40 New Sponsors Requested ($5 to $100 monthly)

15 Sept 2022:  Jerusalem Tabernacle of David has a prayer group of supporters and intercessors who have seen the need for more sponsors to come on board.  There is a gap between the regular monthly donation level and the monthly costs to fulfill contracts and expenses to operate in the Land.
New donors are invited to commit $10 per month, $100 per month, more or less, as each one is individually led by YAH.
Here is a potential line-up:
10 supporters giving $5 regularly;
9 supporters giving $10 USD each month;
7 supporters giving $20 per month;
7 supporters giving $50/mo;
7 supporters giving $100 USD per month;
(That’s 40 people, $1330 total extra, which covers the gap)
Dear Reader, a few questions raised in the prayer group:
“Who can commit which amount of monthly support?”
“Who is going to pray to get those 40 supporters?”

Donate now.

Get in touch.

Germany apologizes for its part in 1972 Olympics disaster

6 Sept, 2022:  Germany apologized for failing to keep the Arab killers away from the Jewish athletes; while the leader of the Palestinian Authority government utterly failed to apologize for these murders committed by people from his movement.

 

Portraits of the victims of the 1972 Munich Olympics Massacre are displayed at the Fuerstenfeldbruck airfield in Bavaria yesterday (5 Sept 2022). Germany aplogizes for failure to protect Israelis in 1972 Munich Massacre (in which Arabs snuck into the housing where Jewish athletes from Israel sayed). Source: Jerusalem Post, 6 Sept 2022 pg 1.

 

Less than one month ago, PA leader Mahmoud Abbas had the platform in Germany, and outraged Germans and Jews by trivializing the Shoah (Holocaust).  Link here:

Arabs Shoot Jewish Bus Driver In Face; Passenger Takes Over, Steers Bus to Stop

4 Sept 2022:  The three suspects, members of the same family from the northern Samaria PA-governed city of Jenin, drove a truck with Israeli license plates, and staged a moving attack on the loaded passenger bus traveling on the highway.

Security forces investigate a shooting attack on a bus on Rd 90 in the Jordan Valley on 4 Sept 2022. Source: Jerusalem Post, 5 Sept 2022 pg 1.

 

The driver holds Israeli citizenship (rather than Palestinian Authority) which might explain why the attack car has Israeli plates.  The driver is father of one of the other two militants.

The investigation is ongoing.

Two of the militants were captured by the IDF, while a third had escaped.

“The shooting on Sunday was the 11th attack in the past month… [and] the sixth terrorist attack in less than one week.”

African Cockroaches in Israel

23 Aug 2022: A Health and Wellness story:  Not only is Israel a part of the Middle East, it also borders Africa, along with everything: the flora and fauna, the crops, nations and people who are under economic oppression.

This creepy-crawly story is about the bugs.  And not just any old bedbugs or fleas.  When I lived in the Back Bay area of Boston, or in Los Angeles, both of these locations had cockroach issues.  The ones in the Back Bay were much smaller, and with the cold climate much of the year, not so prevalent.  Yet, there was a greater problem there since that part of the city was built upon filled marshland and the shallow bay.  In other parts of the city, and in other parts of the state, the roaches were not a problem.  In Hollywood and North Hollywood, the bugs were bigger and more numerous, with the warmer desert-style climate and year-round heat.  In such a place as that, with infestations “built in” to most apartment buildings, one learns quickly to never leave a dirty dish in the sink.  Ever.  It will become bait in no time.

But those were nothing compared to the African Cockroach which can also fly, in addition to being huge.

Update 25 Aug 2022:  This evening one of these roaches flew into the kitchen; landed on the floor; gained altitude again, and flew over my head towards the wall and crawled into hiding somewhere.  Mind you, all the windows and doors were closed or with bugscreens.  That one somehow managed to sneak through the cracks in the frame.

In all my time in Boston and Hollywood, I never heard of stories such as this.  Then again, maybe it’s because I had no newspaper subscription in those days.

Careful About Info Sources

Image credit: Ben Garrison. The games that tyrannical global bankers play with the population using the Main-Stream Media to spread their messages.

I encourage everyone to be prayerful and circumspect about how information and news is acquired.  If one tries to avoid it completely, chances are, the messages from the MSM will creep into the ears, like bugs, because those messages are flying around everywhere: the curated search results from web search sites, the background noise at the market or cafe, the radios, the tv sound, and the comments and opinions from all the people who are exposed to those noises.

It takes prayer and focus to actively search out news and commentary that is written with a level of honesty and a level of agreement with your own world view.  Clearly, the banksters have quite their own world view, and they are delighted with their ability to try to force it upon all others.
