Herbert Armstrong was not antisemitic!

Deceptive Ad

You recently ran an ad for a book, Beyond Babylon, by "David Ben-Ariel."
This is a Christian radical theology fronting for offshoots of the Worldwide Church of G-d, Herbert W. Armstrong, representing the British Israel branch which has crossovers with other antisemitic groups.
I thought you would want to know.

SLR Responds: You are 100 percent correct we would want to know, and we are very grateful to you for pointing out our potentially severe error. We have no idea if this group is antisemitic (nothing we found out about them would indicate that), but they are definitely a Christian evangelical group, and their ad in our paper indicates that they were being deceptive. You can trust their ad will not appear again.

This exchange appeared in The Jewish Voice and Opinion magazine, May 2009, in reference to two full page ads that I, David Ben-Ariel, bought and paid for in full (January and April issues) - not any group or organization!

I sincerely hope that "Yitzchok Dovid Smith" knows more about Judaism than he does about Herbert W. Armstrong and the offshoots of the Worldwide Church of God, as those who are knowledgeable about Mr. Armstrong and those associated with him, having read or are familiar with his former magazine The Plain Truth, know that we are not antisemitic in any manner, shape or form and to attempt to discredit us by a faulty connection to some who are is as deceptive as linking all Jews with Bolshevism or other godless movements!

Mr. Armstrong was well known in Israel among the leadership for years, even honored in Jerusalem many times, and met every prime minister from Golda Meir on until his death in 1986. Ambassador College (Pasadena, California) worked with Hebrew University on many archaeological digs and Liberty Bell Park in Jerusalem honors Herbert W. Armstrong to this day with a monument.

Furthermore, I am not a member of any "Christian evangelical group" and neither Herbert W. Armstrong or offshoots of the Sabbath-keeping Worldwide Church of God have anything to do with traditional Christianity, which we consider baptized paganism: the Babylonian Mystery religion in Christian drag!

My two full page ads (they were my ads, representing my politico-religious concerns for Israel in light of the pope's campaign to undermine Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem, Europe's new crusade) in The Jewish Voice and Opinion were not deceptive in the least, as I have always focused on where I agree with Jews, as Torah-observant Jews can testify who have known me for years, like Gershon Salomon, chairman of the Temple Mount Faithful, and Ze'ev Bar-Tov; Aryeh Gallin, President of Root and Branch Association; Attorney Howard Grief; rabbis Yehoshua Friedman and Avraham Feld; Yair Davidiy of Brit Am Yisrael; Barry Chamish, etc.

Last but not least, my legal name is David Ben-Ariel. Again, nothing deceptive. Just the plain truth!

For Zion's sake,
David Ben-Ariel

Shimon Peres aids and abets Israel's enemies!

Christian-Zionist David Ben-Ariel's strong response to Shimon Peres' weak AIPAC speech, condemning the lying peace process, collaboration with the Vatican and warning about UN Resolution 181 as the Final Solution!





Isaiah 28
14 Therefore hear the word of the LORD, you scornful men,
Who rule this people who are in Jerusalem,
15 Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death,
And with Sheol we are in agreement.
When the overflowing scourge passes through,
It will not come to us,
For we have made lies our refuge,
And under falsehood we have hidden ourselves.”

Shimon Peres, the bloody vulture who initially came to power over Rabin's dead body, the perfidious president of Israel, has publicly wished president usurper Obama at the AIPAC Conference in Washington, DC, "full success" and "God speed." What a madman! Such success would mean death to the United States and death to Israel!

Shimon Peres' schizophrenic speech, with no basis in reality except for the clear and present danger Iran poses, continued to self-righteously push the delusional "peace" process as something desirable, rather than a miserable failure and fraud that should be declared null and void.

The irreligious Shimon Peres had the chutzpah to speak in the name of a god who "doesn't believe in war." Our Great Creator God, the God of Israel, the God of the Bible, instructs Israel to offer peace on our God-given terms, our God-given conditions, not based upon "painful compromises" or "painful concessions" Israel's sworn enemies dictate! And when such offers of peace are rejected, our Great Creator God, the God of Israel, the God of the Bible, demands Israel enforce peace through strength. Not to insanely keep trying to make peace with sworn enemies who must be defeated and driven out, as Meir Kahane courageously reminded the nation of what Moses taught (Malachi 4:4).

Shimon Peres condemned Iran funding and arming Hezbollah and Hamas, yet remained deathly silent about the United States and Israel funding and arming Fatah and Hamas, and aiding and abetting the terrorist PLO office to remain open in Washington, DC, and failing to move the United States' embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem where it belongs, as acknowledged by the Jerusalem Embassy Act.

Shimon Peres accused the Iranians of "trying to impose a foreign and violent ideology. Their agents target Americans, Europeans and Arabs alike." That's true. However, the same thing must be said about the Vatican's Crusade to undermine Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem, pushing illegitimate Catholic claims forward with the German pope's planned visit to the Holy Land of Israel, while continuing to hold the Temple treasures and Judaica hostage in Rome.

The Roman Catholic Church, backed by the German-dominated Europe, poses the greatest external threat to Israel's survival. However, the greatest threat to Israel is from within: the Jews' worst enemies are those Jewish collaborators with the accursed Vatican, who sell out Jerusalem and betray Israel.

Jewish Israelis must remember they are Jews first and Israelis second, return to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and go by the Book. Otherwise the German-Jesuit jackboot will stomp Jerusalem and peacekeeping troops pollute the Holy Land of Israel, imposing UN Resolution 181 as the Final Solution.

For Zion's sake (Isaiah 62),
David Ben-Ariel
