"Shopping...and the Support of Terror"

Westerners love a good cause to support and often boycott merchants on our own soil who are engaged in practices which violate the Scriptures.  Sadly, many people when touring Israel, are indiscriminate with how they spend their money and with whom, and wind up supporting merchants whose stated goal is to see Israel wiped off the map.  They actually wind up blessing those who are cursing Israel, not having considered that money which God gave to them in order to bless Israel might be used by vocal enemies of Israel to finance the taking of innocent Jewish lives.

We endeavour to bless the Jewish people with our spending by visiting Jewish merchants, eating at kosher restaurants and purchasing Israeli made products.  (For that matter, the practice of blessing the Jews is a biblical practice anywhere in the world).  In order to do this, it has meant a lot of homework for our tour coordinators, as they have researched various merchants to find those who honor the God of Israel in their product offerings and in their hours of operation.
