Will the Branch Davidians sue Gerald Furry and the PCG?

Re: Gerald Flurry's Outrageous Attack Against David Ben-Ariel

VERY strong, David. I don't know how David Koresh got into that article--I could hardly read it--or if he was saying you were a Branch Davidian... Koresh may have a bad name now, but it's really up in the air as far as I'm concerned as to whether he was an evil child molesting bigamist or an innocently maligned religious leader embroiled in writing his book on Revelation...
May God truly give him repentance.

From all that I've read and seen, the Branch Davidians were falsely accused of molesting children, of "stockpiling weapons" (and they were all found to be legally acquired), etc.

Flurry is such a HYPOCRITE it's amazing and sad, but I honestly have no ill will against him.

I am truly surprised at the PCG venom, however, when you are simply just one man! No organization, no millions of dollars to back you up, just a blogger. :)

Yes, as Stephen Flurry calls me in the PCG's first ad, I'm just a little known blogger and yet I knew about the Fox 25 Special Report on Philadelphia Church of God before they did.

Gerald Flurry rants and raves

Re: Is David Ben-Ariel A Terrorist?

Hi David,

I had no idea of all the "to do" that was going on about you! I've never read anything you wrote that would cause controversy. Some people look for trouble and interpret mild remarks in violent ways. I don't think people like that are worth bothering about.

You know you are a good person. You respect others and their opinions, so let whoever he is rant and rave. Surely no one will pay any attention to him.

Best wishes always

Dearest David,

A warm shalom from Jerusalem. I trust that you are well and that the blessings of G–d are upon you. It was so good to hear from you and to receive your book. It s always a privilege to hear from you. Thank you so much for sending the books which we received and read with deep interest. Unfortunately, I am still too busy to write my book but at least I have already started it. We pray that soon your desire to come to Israel will be fulfilled. We deeply appreciate and love you. You are a deep brother for all of us and all the people of Israel. Naomi sends her greetings as well as Ze’ev.

May the G–d of Israel bless you.

Your very good friend and brother in Jerusalem,

Gershon Salomon

Dear Mr. Ben-Ariel,
I finished reading your valuable book and appreciated its contents. I was already informed about the Worldwide Church of God and already had the opportunity to read books by Rev. Armstrong and issues of "The Plain Truth". Although from a religious point of view I obviously disagree with some of the beliefs which your Church preaches, I surely agree with your analysis of German and Vatican in creating as a new European anti-God Empire. I would like that Europeans understand what is happening under their eyes. Thank you very much for the copies you sent me. I hope many people will have the opportunity to read your book and reflect upon its contents.

All the very best,

Shaykh Prof. Abdul Hadi Palazzi Director

'Phased Destruction'

'Phased Destruction' John McCaslin Washington, D.C. (10/21/2005)

The Washington Times
Inside the Beltway
By John McCaslin '

Phased destruction'
American author David Ben-Ariel tells this column that he will soon release "Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall," describing the book as "staunchly pro-Israel/ American." As a result, he predicts, the book's subject matter "will become a national debate and an international controversy." Not surprising. Mr. Ben-Ariel of late has referred to the "mindless mantra that mesmerizes fools for peace at any price and rings hollow because the Jews are going again, slowly but surely, through the lying peace process of phased destruction." "The only ones (thank God for the precious few) who are making any fuss about it, dragging their heels rather than go like sheep to the slaughter, are roundly condemned by their own leaders and American administrations and worthless world opinion as 'enemies of peace,' 'obstacles to peace,' and other name brands because they don't want to 'rest in peace' but live and prosper."

David Hoover/David Ben-Ariel

Stephen Flurry makes mention, in Gerald Flurry's hateful Oklahoman ad against me (it corrects some errors in Fox 25 Special Report on Philadelphia Church of God, but falters when it goes on to engage in the same character assassination against me they cry was done to them, based on half-truths and downright dirty innuendos that I am a terrorist, which is what folks will remember - not the corrections), that "Ben-Ariel -- whose name used to be Hoover -- was detained by Israeli police and interrogated for six hours for allegedly plotting to blow up the Al-Aqsa mosque" and was later deported.

Flurry failed to report that the Israeli authorities acknowledged to The Jerusalem Post that they "lacked sufficient evidence" to convict me - because there was no plot except the one they conspired against me, due to an article published in The Traveller magazine in Jerusalem, as revealed within: Exposing the German-Vatican Plot to Occupy Jerusalem and Still at Large!

My name was David Hoover, but I legally changed it in 1989 for religious reasons, as I testify in
God-given Names and From Toledo to Jerusalem.

*****************

Can we expect an ad from the Philadelphia Church of God apologizing for their character assassination of me, misrepresenting me as some dangerous terrorist? Or do double standards and rank hypocrisy rule in the PCG world? Does Gerald Flurry admit it when he is wrong, or does he think he's infallible? I sincerely hope not, and that Gerald Flurry and Stephen Flurry just overreacted, failing to first check their facts, as responsible journalists do.
