"Bigger Story" (Part 3)

14 Sivan 5785 

(Part 1, Part 2) 

Although this newest Gaza initiative by the United States, which I will remind you was already being planned as early as December 2023, may not last any longer than the floating pier debacle, I think it is worth looking deeper into the person who has been entrusted with its success.  As you will see before we've finished, there is a bigger story behind this.

The "Reverend" Dr. Johnnie Moore has been appointed the "Executive Chairman" of the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation which has been created (supposedly) to get humanitarian aid to Gazan civilians without interference or disruption by Hamas.  It makes use of private military contractors* to maintain order, while under the ultimate protection of the IDF.

He is no newcomer to the area as we showed you in Part 2.  Let's look further into his background and see with whom he is associated.  From his LinkedIn account...

Very "interfaith" and "humanistic" at the same time.  Clearly globalist in reach.  Let's examine the two I have highlighted a bit further.

The Aspen Institute and Aspen Institute Civil Society Fellowship

The Aspen Institute is a global nonprofit organization committed to realizing a free, just, and equitable society. Founded in 1949, the Institute drives change through dialogue, leadership, and action to help solve the most important challenges facing the United States and the world. 

• We bring together thoughtful people with diverse backgrounds and points of view. 
• We cultivate and support values-based, purpose-driven leaders in many communities. 
• We turn ideas into action and impact for individuals and society.

The Aspen Institute has earned a reputation for gathering diverse, nonpartisan thought leaders, creatives, scholars and members of the public to address some of the world's most complex problems. But the goal of these convenings is to have an impact beyond the conference room. They are designed to provoke, further and improve actions taken in the real world.

...The Civil Society Fellowship engages the next generation of national leaders—across political ideologies and other differences—to explore and forge solutions to society’s biggest challenges.

People like this are known as change agents:  "Change agents are the driving force behind successful organizational change, guiding teams through the complexities of transformation and ensuring that the desired outcomes are achieved."  (Source)

Remember that word - "transformation" - it's very important to identifying the forces trying to remake the world in man's image.

"Cultural" change agents might be employed in Israel to ensure its transformation from a "Jewish" State to a state of all its citizens.  There really is no other choice under the rule of a liberal democracy adhering to Western values, norms and laws.

And lest anyone think otherwise, this is what is driving the campaign to enlist yeshivah bachurim into the Western-oriented, pluralistic IDF; non-compliance to be punished with severe sanctions.  Where does this idea come from?  In the future world that they envision, there will be no Torah Jews left because Torah Jews will always refuse to assimilate.  

You can see why the media worldwide is so much at odds with the traditional norms of any population.  This is the main avenue for directing change and why this issue of the "shared burden" has been accentuated and accelerated here in Israel.  Everywhere there is a cultural bonfire burning, you can be sure that the WEF and their ilk are not very far away.

Global Future Council on Faith in Action : World Economic Forum

In a world increasingly divided by political, social, and economic fault lines, the moral guidance and ethical frameworks offered by religion and spirituality are crucial for fostering mutual understanding and a shared vision for a more inclusive future. Integrating these frameworks into leadership principles, as well as common values into collaborative efforts, can unlock new pathways to collective well-being and social progress.

The network convenes over 700 experts from academia, business, government, civil society and international organizations, operating as a time-bound think-tank, grouped in expertise-based thematic councils, to identify and disseminate transformative ideas with the potential for positive global impact.

...The world is undergoing deep, complex and accelerated transformations, and neither government, nor business, nor civil society alone can address our common challenges. Religion, values and spirituality continue to shape the societal transformations of today - economic, geopolitical, technological and cultural.

As part of its Civil Society Communities and across our Centres, the World Economic Forum engages over 100 religious leaders, faith-based organizations, interfaith groups, multi-faith networks, and experts of religion from over 10 of the world’s major religions and spiritual traditions.

In partnership with key global faith representatives, experts and community leaders,** the Forum has launched the Faith in Action Community. This multistakeholder community reflects on how global leaders can build innovative partnerships with faith actors – on the environment, moral economies and technology governance – and consider ways leaders can accelerate cooperation at a time of deepening polarization and distrust in societies.

Global leaders cannot afford to ignore the impact of religion and spirituality on today's interconnected challenges. Eighty-five per cent of people worldwide adhere to a religious or spiritual tradition, impacting how they define their values and participate in communities, workplaces and societies.

Faith actors, from traditional religious institutions and interfaith organizations to faith-motivated investors, are tackling common challenges through partnerships with businesses, government and other stakeholders, exploring original approaches to working for mutual benefit. 

We have no idea of the extent of internal enemies who are full-time fighting to destroy Torah Judaism and Torah Jews.

"Bigger Story" (Part 2)

13 Sivan 5785 

(Part 1)

* * *

On May 8, 2025, it was announced that "former executive director of the (UN) World Food Programme and Nobel Peace Prize laureate David Beasley" would head the newly established Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) whose aim is to provide aid to Gazan civilians.

Beasley, a former governor of South Carolina, was appointed as the WFP chief during President Trump's first term in office. He served in the job until December 2023, and is highly respected in the humanitarian community and within the UN system.

In December 2020 he received the Nobel Peace prize on behalf of the UN agency he headed.

Beasley's leadership of the new Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) would give it significant credibility and could convince the UN and other international aid organizations to work with the new foundation.

A source close to Beasley said he's negotiating the urgent reintroduction of aid in Gaza as a condition of the GHF's operations and his leadership.  

...the new foundation wants to partner with NGOs, UN agencies, and civil society organizations to facilitate the movement and distribution of their aid through the GHF's secure distribution infrastructure in order to ensure the aid reaches intended beneficiaries without diversion or delay.  (Source)

However, he is not now the head of the GHF and I cannot find any report on why not.  It isn't even mentioned on his Wiki entry, so in the end, maybe he never formally accepted the job.  

In any case, Jake Wood became the head of the organization, but he didn't last long...

Before I go on, I want to include some info that didn't make it into the introduction.  This is not a thing of recent invention.  It was already in the planning stages only a couple of months after the war started.

...According to a report by The New York Times, the idea of an Israeli-backed private food distribution program was discussed in December 2023. Throughout 2024, Israeli officials worked with private American security contractors, primarily CIA veteran Philip Reilly, to develop a plan. Reilly later launched the security company Safe Reach Solutions (SRS) in January 2025, which was tasked with securing food distribution sites in Gaza. The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation was registered in February 2025 in both Delaware and Geneva.  (Source)

So, American Marine veteran Jake Wood was head of the GHF beginning ??? - curiously no beginning date is mentioned anywhere, only that he served for "two months." He resigned on May 25, 2025, giving as his reason:

...he said, it had become "clear that it is not possible to implement this plan while also strictly adhering to the humanitarian principles of humanity, neutrality, impartiality, and independence, which I will not abandon."  (Source)

This is beginning to look like a bait-and-switch operation.  Who is the current executive [now "chairman"] of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation???  Since "June" 2025, that would be (Reverend Dr.) Johnnie Moore.  

Besides campaigning globally for the the rights of persecuted Chr*stians to proselytize as part of their religious obligation, he has been very active in efforts to make peace in the Middle East.  Here are some highlights from his Wiki entry:

...Moore played a key role in the release of the historic Bahrain Declaration calling for rights for religious minorities in the Middle East. Days after the move of the Jerusalem embassy, Moore led a multi-faith peace delegation from the Kingdom of Bahrain on a pilgrimage in Jerusalem.

As part of a group of evangelical advisors to President Trump, Moore met with the Saudi crown prince and discussed the death of Jamal Khashoggi as well as human rights issues. In 2018, with a group led by Joel C. Rosenberg, and invited by the UAE government, Moore met with senior government officials for four days. He also met with the World Council of Churches.

In 2019, he visited Saudi Arabia on 9/11 and is an advocate of the Crown Prince's Vision 2030 reform agenda, as well as advocating for persecuted Hindus in India. Moore praised the Kingdom of Jordan for its interfaith efforts as well as praising the president of Azerbaijan as a model of peaceful coexistence.

Moore referred to the ISIS threat against Christians in Iraq and Syria as a “once in a 1000 year threat to Christianity.” He helped raise money for and coordinate the evacuation of selected Christian refugees from Northern Iraq to Slovakia over Christmas in 2015. 

On September 11, 2019, he joined forces with Muhammad Alissa of the Muslim World League to issue a joint statement calling for cooperation between evangelicals like Moore and Muslims with a focus on protecting Christian holy sites. Moore is a critic of Iran and has called for the Iranian people to take back their religion from their supreme leader. He praised Pakistan's prime minister for the arrest of a leading terrorist and in 2019 his advocacy was credited for the release of an 82-year-old Muslim prisoner of conscience in Pakistan, Abdul Shakoor.

Moore was among an evangelical delegation who met with Egyptian government officials and was the guest of Egypt's president for the grand opening of the Middle East's largest cathedral.

He now serves on the ADL Task Force for Protecting Minority Groups in the Middle East. He participated in a panel as part of his work with the ADL on inter-religious tolerance in the UAE.

In June 2025 he was appointed the executive chairman of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.

And They Wonder Why...

13 Sivan 5785

People who post these things think these are badges of honor and wonder why the world does not judge us favorably as compared to our enemies because of it.  

They still don't get it.  When we follow Torah, the world still won't love us, but they

will respect us, and more importantly, we will have God's approval and protection. 

This Is A Bigger Story Than You Might Think (Part 1)

12 Sivan 5785

This story is already two weeks old, but it's buried among so many other things that I think we are missing the bigger picture here.  This may take a few blog posts to unpack. As an introduction...

Lapid: Israel may be secretly funding agencies involved in Gaza aid distribution

According to the opposition head, Gulf states were expected to fund the aid but declined, citing concerns about the companies’ structure.

By ELIAV BREUER

MAY 26, 2025

Opposition head MK Yair Lapid questioned the government about the source of funding for two agencies involved in the government’s plan to distribute aid in the Gaza Strip, during a Knesset plenum debate on Monday.

Lapid questioned whether Israel had secretly financed humanitarian aid to Gaza through two shell companies, Gaza Humanitarian Fund (GHF) and Safe Reach Solutions (SRS), established in Switzerland and the US. According to Lapid, Gulf states were expected to fund the aid but declined, citing concerns about the companies’ structure.

Despite this, $100 million appeared in the organizations' budgets, with GHF’s CEO Jake Wood claiming the money came from "a country in western Europe," though no nation has acknowledged it. Wood later resigned, saying the aid plan couldn't fully adhere to humanitarian principles.

Lapid: Government may be deceiving Israeli citizens on Gaza aid

“If this money is indeed Israeli and the government is concealing it, it would not only be a deception of Israeli citizens—whose taxes fund it—but also one of the greatest diplomatic blunders in the country’s history,” Lapid said.

“If our tax money is already purchasing humanitarian aid, funding food and medicine for children in Gaza, then let's at least gain international recognition for it. For once, let’s have global headlines highlighting something positive Israel has done in Gaza.”

“Perhaps [National Security Minister Itamar] Ben-Gvir and [National Missions Minister Orit] Strock won’t like it, and maybe Smotrich fears people finding out he authorized the transfer, but the money has already been sent. This benefits Israeli public diplomacy, strengthens foreign relations, and even aligns with Jewish values,” Lapid said.

“The Israeli government should proudly declare that it funds these two organizations and do what it hates most—take responsibility for its actions and accept the consequences,” the opposition leader concluded. 

Mystery funding for Gaza aid sparks further speculation of Israeli

Funding for a new Gaza humanitarian initiative remains unclear, with US officials confirming unidentified donors and speculation of Israeli involvement; Chaos erupted at distribution centers on the first day, raising concerns about the initiative's effectiveness and the source of the funds

Itamar Eichner|05.28.25

The source of funding for a humanitarian aid initiative in Gaza remains unclear, raising questions about transparency and Israeli involvement. While U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee confirmed that “several parties have committed to providing funding,” those parties have chosen to remain anonymous. Separately, a spokesperson for the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) claimed that a "foreign country" had pledged $100 million but declined to name said nation.

...When asked about the funding during the announcement of the new distribution method two and a half weeks ago, Huckabee responded: “It will come from wherever we can secure it. Several parties have already committed to assisting with funding, but they currently don’t want to be identified. When they’re ready, we’ll publish it, or they will publish it themselves.”

GHF, which has faced turmoil following an investigation in Switzerland regarding its activities, recently announced it would now operate through an American nonprofit with the same name. Last week, the organization’s spokesperson reiterated that a foreign country had pledged $100 million for future activities but refused to disclose which country.

...Avigdor Liberman, leader of Yisrael Beiteinu, alleged Mossad was funding the initiative. 

...Bezalel Smotrich, leader of the Religious Zionism party, described the opening of the distribution centers as “a turning point in the war that will lead to Hamas’ destruction.”

...Questions about Israeli involvement in the program have persisted, with reports suggesting that what was initially presented as an American-led aid initiative may have deeper ties to Israel. According to The Washington Post, as early as late 2023, the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) began promoting a “humanitarian bubbles” program, spearheaded by then-Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, which resembles the current initiative.

A secret document prepared by the GHF foundation, as reported by The Washington Post, outlined strategies to engage Western countries, identified Arab influencers to promote the program, and created messaging guidelines. The document noted, “We need to be ready to answer questions about how a nonprofit that no one had heard of received special approvals from the Israeli government.”

The New York Times reported that discussions about the program began approximately 18 months ago in private meetings involving military officers, businesspeople, and other individuals with close ties to the Israeli government. This group, referred to as the Mikveh Israel Forum, held its first gathering in December 2023.

The forum reportedly included Yotam Cohen, a strategic advisor who joined COGAT and is the son of retired Major General Gershon Hacohen; Liran Tankman, a tech entrepreneur and investor described as “well-connected”; and Michael Eisenberg, a prominent Israeli venture capital investor.

According to the report, Cohen quickly became an aide to Brigadier General Roman Gofman, then a senior commander in COGAT. Gofman was later promoted to major general and now serves as Netanyahu’s military secretary. In June, Cohen published an article in a journal affiliated with the IDF’s Dado Center for Interdisciplinary Military Studies, outlining a vision for humanitarian aid distribution in Gaza that closely resembles the current program.

Gofman’s name also appeared in a Haaretz investigation, which revealed that SRS was selected to manage the aid program through a secretive process that bypassed traditional channels, including COGAT. The selection reportedly excluded the IDF and the Ministry of Defense, and was overseen by Gofman alongside a team of reserve officers and businesspeople recruited to advance the initiative.

A separate investigation by Shomrim, published on Ynet, revealed that the individuals behind the Swiss GHF nonprofit, which had previously established a similarly named entity in Delaware, recently decided to permanently shut down both organizations. According to a GHF spokesperson, the foundation will now operate through a third entity registered in the United States in February 2024. This new entity, also named GHF, is expected to receive the donations for the foundation, though the sources of these donations remain undisclosed.

It's a delusion!  How out of touch can Jews be with the reality of their situation in chu"l?

The Youtube channel provides the following: "Rabbi Pinchas Taylor is the Director of the American Faith Coalition. ...[He] has been called the “Celebrity Life Coach” for his work with actors, athletes, and other public figures and founded “The Ark,” a successful faith-based study and coaching program for people of all backgrounds. Rabbi Taylor is also formerly a member of the Governor of Florida’s Faith advisory board, and often a contributor on national news outlets."

"Welcome to The Ark, the place where humanity comes together. The Ark is an ongoing Torah learning program focused on hashkafa, Jewish thought and worldview. It is open to all who want to better their lives through in-depth learning in Torah guiding philosophy. The novelty is that this group is open and encouraged for Jews, non-Jews, and everyone in between. Whatever your religious background may be, members of the Ark can help further shape their spiritual identity through study and our virtual community."

Really?!  There is something "between Jews and non-Jews???  Is this where the Judeo-Chr*stians go to find out where they are on "the spectrum"???

I think the vast majority of American Jews are in bigger trouble than they know.

...As I live, says the Lord God, surely with a strong hand and with an outstretched arm and with poured out fury, will I reign over you.  And I shall take you out of the peoples, and I shall gather you from the lands in which you were scattered, with a strong hand and with an outstretched arm and with poured out fury.  (Yechezkel 20.33-34)

The Latest Heresy - "On the Spectrum of Judeo-Chr*stianity"

This idea was launched at this year's Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast held on May 27 - 29, 2025.  Now it is being released into the public domain within the context of the Washington, DC murders...

...in the days following the heinous attack, new details emerged that added complexity to an already heartbreaking story. Lischinsky, who worked at the Israeli Embassy, was not a typical Jewish diplomat. He was a member of a Messianic Jewish congregation in Jerusalem—a community that is both controversial and unique, blending Jewish identity with a belief in Jesus as the Messiah.

"...Messianic Jews are well integrated into Israeli society, [Michael] Mistretta said, with more than 1,000 Messianic soldiers contributing to Israel’s war efforts. “They are in top jobs in the air force, intelligence and combat,” Mistretta said. “Some of them are very, very high up.”

...“I am firmly opposed to any effort to proselytize Jews,” said Rabbi Tuly Weisz, who runs an organization called Israel365, which aims to build bridges between Jews and Christian Zionists. “In my own experience with those on the Judeo-Christian spectrum, I have been surprised. Most of whom I have interacted with are second generation. Their parents were typical American Reform Jews who intermarried and found themselves in Messianic congregations, not accepted as Jews or Christians. The ones I have spoken to don’t identify as Messianic, don’t believe in classic Christian theology, and don’t proselytize.”

...Ultra-Orthodox lawmakers proposed a bill to ban all proselytizing, but in March 2023, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blocked it.

...Weisz said that the binary distinction between Judaism and Christianity is outdated. “In our complex world, we have a Judeo-Christian spectrum with literally millions of people, like Yaron, who fall somewhere in between,” he said. (Source)

(IMPORTANT to hear to the end.)

 

This comes from the same "Orthodox" rabbi who revealed to an interfaith meeting the first time in his life he broke Shabbat and it was for the hostages.

This is an attack on Torah Judaism and Torah Jews. This is what comes from tolerating interfaith activities. These are Jewish missionaries trying to convert Torah Jews into Judeo-Chr*stians.  At the very least, they should all be excommunicated.
