The (almost) complete South Africa slideshows!

After reading James Michener's book, The Covenant, I wanted to visit South Africa and while serving as a kibbutz volunteer in Israel I met plenty of white South Africans, some of British descent, others of Dutch, and a few colored girls. The one colored girl (mulatto), Celeste, was roommate of my best British girlfriend Donna at Kibbutz Sdot Yam and said, "You must visit South Africa" and invited me to stay with her family in Athlone, Cape Town.
My German roommates' girlfriend at Kibbutz Reshafim was Debbie, a white girl from South Africa. When I was staying at Kibbutz Ha'On and seriously thinking about visiting South Africa, I received a letter from Debbie saying I must visit South Africa and not to worry about where to stay and such, so I wrote and told them all I was on my way and was there for 7 weeks, three with Celeste's lovely family. Both gracious families took me around and showed me the sites!
I say almost complete SA slideshows because I misplaced a few of my favorite pictures that I remember but can't find. Such is life, eh?

Searching Koel Bay

Check out this site - Waves at Caves, Koel Bay - where I left this comment for Alan van Gysen:

Cool pics AvG ("AVG" reminds me of the antivirus).
I found your site by googling "Koel Bay" to make sure some tourist pictures I took in Dec.'91/Jan.'92 were correctly marked and I am happy to see they were. :-)

Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall

Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall by David Ben-Ariel

Mr. Ben-Ariel clearly has a God-given love for the Jews and the nation of Israel. His Israeli lawyer has stated that David's "future is linked with that of the Jews," and Gershon Salomon, chairman of the Temple Mount Faithful says, "God has some special task" for him. His sacred bond with the land and people of Israel has been strengthened over the years by his service as a volunteer on eight kibbutzim (collective farms) throughout the Holy Land, including during Operation Desert Storm. As a firm believer in the Israelite roots and responsibilities of the Anglo-Saxons and Northwestern European peoples, David works towards the ultimate reconciliation and restoration of Joseph with Judah. As a student of biblical prophecy, he is alarmed about Germany and the Vatican's increasing control of the European continent, remodeling it after the Holy Roman Empire. As the outspoken author of Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall, he is determined to do all he can to help wake up the world to the clear and present danger Germany poses to world peace, with a special emphasis on the Middle East.

None dare call it a coup

Obama's African Coup in America

How will the president usurper act when they come to take him away? When the Constitution is again upheld and the laws of this land he has shown contempt for enforced? The fraud and foreigner, the African Obama, aided and abetted by treacherous politicians, justices, and conservative cowards, has led a coup against the Constitution of the United States.

Usurper Obama's coup is a dark episode in our American history, a black day in America, but it will soon be history, as justice demands. If acting president Barack Hussein Obama is not a fraud and a foreigner, a usurper, let him prove he is a natural born citizen and settle this case once and for all. Otherwise he remains illegitimate and none of his decisions binding, but rendered null and void as unconstitutional.

Imagine the first presidential library where they refuse to show an original birth certificate but present a dubious copy or cheap certification! Obama's records in the United States and Kenya are SEALED. What's Obama hiding?

The Obama emperor has no clothes - and some of us won't let folks forget it! No justice, no peace. We'll cry aloud and spare not until the might of right prevails, so help us God.

Servicing the nuns

Years ago I took this picture outside the Carmelite Monastery on Mount Carmel in Haifa with the Mediterranean in the background. The voluteers from Kibbutz Sdot Yam were still chuckling about how the priest who gave us a lecture inside, when describing their duties, said it included "servicing the nuns."

I've lived throughout Israel (including during the Gulf War)

and grew up in Holland where "Joe the Plumber" hails from, and sojourn in Toledo now. If Mr. Wurzelbacher really wants to know what it's like living among folks from all over in Israel, Arabs, Jews, Christians, undecideds, secular, etc. he can feel free to check out my website or blogs and find plenty of ammo and kosher food for thought!

Kibbutz Ha'On volunteer pictures

Donna (Skye) and I stayed at Kibbutz Ha'On 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!

Here are 3 links related to Ha'On
