Here is a quote from this David's personal website ( where the link actually goes)
I must fulfill my personal destiny as a Son of Jerusalem, publish my poems, chart called PRIEST-KING - The Twin Pillars of Israel, & book THE GRAND DESIGN [since published as Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall]. I must, Lord-willing, RESTORE our Jewish-Christian presence in Jerusalem & Israel, significant since I'm of Bet David [House of David].

Folks can read it in context at the site.

Glad you enjoyed the photos. :D

Here are some of my pictures of Kibbutz Reshafim volunteers on site and on various trips to Timna, Eilat, Bet Shean, Ein Gedi and Jerusalem, as well as some links to letters I wrote to an American friend about it all.

David, Shin Bet deported you from Israel in 1995 for your activities with the Temple Mount group. If you want to show 19year old photographs from 1989 of your friends in Israel go to Facebook. This is a scientific skeptic forum and not a holiday snap venue for fundamentalist looneys. People here simply hate you and do not want to see your snaps...you must be so lonely....

Did they? Why do you hatefully love to indulge in disinformation when you know better by now?

Is David Ben-Ariel a Terrorist?

The Temple Mount Faithful is not a terrorist organization!

Your sloppy swill of disinformation isn't too scientific. :roll:

Maybe some day you can manage to get out of your box and see the world too. Perhaps then you'll understand how all my pilgrimages to Israel and kibbutz stays were related, directly or indirectly, to my biblical beliefs.

[David Ben-Ariel]

After celebrating the Feast of Tabernacles with the Worldwide Church of God in Jerusalem, in 1982, I continued on to serve as a volunteer at Kibbutz Ramat Yohanan near Haifa in Northern Israel. Ramat Yohanan was the beginning of my kibbutz volunteer service, that ultimately included 8 kibbutzim, a moshav and precious months in Jerusalem! It was at Ramat Yohanan that I met Miriam Weiss, who "adopted" me and became my "kibbutz mother."

The following are pictures of my fellow kibbutz volunteers from Scotland, England, Sweden, France, Germany, the United States, Australia, the Netherlands, etc. at Ramat Yohanan, and on a trip to the Golan Heights, Akko, Rosh Hanikra; a few pictures of Worldwide Church of God member Simcha Gombo and her daughter, Michal, who lived nearby in Kiryat Ata, as well as pictures of Ilan Itzhayek and family (his mother baked a birthday cake for my 33rd birthday) from Kiryat Ata; pictures of Ilan and I in Jerusalem for Hanukkah (where I met Yitzhak Rabin), where, as *David Hoover, I was able to write the preliminary introduction to America Warned! - on the Temple Mount - that has since been published as Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall, as well as a picture of Ambassador College graduate Sylvia Owens, during a visit to the Jerusalem Biblical Zoo, and Jerusalem's Liberty Bell Park that includes The Children's Playground sponsored by the Ambassador International Cultural Foundation.

I can go to Israel whenever I want. You can never go there ever again. They threw you out. It is you who is restricted.

So go, what are you waiting for?

You can never go there ever again.

O ye of little faith! You're not being too "scientific" again with your careless assumptions. :roll: The Israeli government never said I couldn't return. Do you pretend to speak for them? Are you playing Mossad and checking your list twice? :lol:

The Israeli government said I wasn't "eligible" for a visa until 2005. Taking care of business, I haven't applied for a visa yet. Rest assured I will soon return to Zion and I won't bother sending you a post card.

Not eligible for a visa until 2005

I would love to go to Israel. Although your cult seem to focus on Israeli mythology there are real archeologists in Israel who are making lovely discoveries in the region as a whole.

You can never go there ever again.

Actually it is a Shin Bet department that "watches" foreigners who activities are against the state. Mossad and the DIOs deal with initiated activities by the state against other nations and nationalities. Interestingly, as you lodge visa applications the vetting process includes reading your current public posts. As Germany gave Israel two diesal submarines Israel's judicial review may not wish to have a profile foreign national who publicly states "Germany is about to launch a nuclear strike on the USA, UK and Israel". The German foreign service, the BND, may share this view. Your interview with the FBI concerning New York may also not help your application.

Perhaps your own activities are hindering your applications

Gee, David......Just post on this forum when you acquire a visa.

David. I don't hate you and I actually respect you. The only ones who hate you are the one's who haven't been banned because the admins agree with them. Unlike them you are brave enough to post pictures of yourself and your name. All atheists are cowards and these pricks just prove that. Keep up the good work David! p.s. I am not David, but if you watched the movie "Spartacus" consider me one of the ones at the end who says "I'm Spartacus"!

BRAVO! (Although the moderator has called in the dogs when they were barking out of line).

Actually, I knew an atheist in Israel at Kibbutz Ramat Yohanan, a fellow volunteer named Dirk from Scotland or England, but he wasn't fanatic about the religion of atheism as some sadly appear to be, their misguided missionary zeal to convert others offering some solace to their dead lives, some meaning and purpose to their hollow shells.

Yes, unlike my cowardly critics, I post with my real name and my real picture, because I'm a real man who stands up for what he believes in and doesn't hide.

I think I'll post this on a couple blogs... :lol:

THANKS for your inspiration.

[Matthew Ellard]

BRAVO! (Although the moderator has called in the dogs when they were barking out of line).

David, Painter is H M Armstrong supporter. You have probably met his at the PCG cult meetings. Of course he is going to support you on this site. No one goes to your own website including Painter......You will note that Painter has just been banned from this forum

Apart from all 28 fake blog names David uses that we discussed in an earlier post.

Please do. In fact I hope you do. You and Painter share many attributes and he may join you in your cult's crusade on another foum as Painter is banned from this one.

The rumors of war were intensifying when American friend John and I moved from Kibbutz Shoval in the Negev down south (not far from Gaza) to Kibbutz Dan in the far north, near the beautiful snow-covered Mount Hermon.

We had lived in the north earlier, on top of a mountain at Kibbutz Adamit on the border of Lebanon. At Kibbutz Dan we were next to Lebanon and Syria. We used to watch the military set off flares (see the picture with steps and the mountains in the background), on guard for terrorist incursions, and thought it would be beautiful, almost like fireworks in the United States, if it weren't so serious.

Donna (Skye) and I stayed at Kibbutz Ha'On right next to the Sea of Galilee (where I was a volunteer), and then rented an apartment there until I left for South Africa for 7 weeks (then I later returned for a short while before heading for the USA). It's at Ha'On where she met (and later married) our roommate Andrew from Australia!
