JEWISH LIVES MATTER COALITION BIRTHED

UCLA: Second Pro-Israel Airplane Banner to Fly at Noon TODAY

202-241-2ACT (2228)

 

Faith2Action Ministries is joined by Andrew Wommack’s Truth & Liberty Coalition, MorningStar Ministries, Patriot Mobile, Transformation Michigan, churches, and concerned individuals, in taking to the airways to stand with Israel.


The second banner will fly over UCLA today from 12:00 noon – 1:00 p.m. Pacific with the message: “JEWISH LIVES MATTER. US,” the new website of the pro-Israel coalition.  It will then fly for another hour to proclaim our message of Jewish support over Hollywood.


“What started as an idea to stand with Israel has become a movement,” said Janet Porter, President of Faith2Action Ministries.


“Today’s banner exposes the hypocrisy of a racist movement on campuses that pretends to be against genocide while at the same time calling for it against Jewish people,” stated Porter. “Standing with terrorists on campus may be well-funded, but it will not be tolerated by a civilized society." 


“When we said, ‘Never Again,’ we meant it.” Porter added, “Israel doesn’t ‘occupy’ the land, they OWN it, and we stand with their right to defend themselves.”

 

“In addition to Columbia University and UCLA, our messages of solidarity with our Jewish brothers and sisters will also reach the University of Southern California (USC), Harvard, the University of Texas, and the University of Michigan.” Porter declared, “We’re just getting started!”


Below are statements from Jewish Lives Matter Coalition members who have joined together to be a voice of support, love, and encouragement to Israel and our Jewish brothers and sisters here at home:

 

  • “Abraham was promised that his descendants would be a blessing to all of the families on the earth, and they have been, but they've also been one of the most persecuted people in history. We must take this stand now, and never forget what has been done to the Jewish people, and never retreat from our stand with them,” declared Rick Joyner, founder MorningStar Ministries.

 

  • “God honors life from the womb to the tomb. In Genesis 12:3 it is obvious that God loves Israel and those who bless Israel will be blessed and those who curse Israel will be cursed. All lives matter and that includes the Jewish people.” stated Rick Warzywak of Transformation Michigan.


  • “In America, from sea to shining sea, we need to let our Jewish students know we love and support them and this project is one way to do that,” said Glenn Story, Patriot Mobile’s CEO. “We are thrilled to join this coalition that is boldly proclaiming our support for Israel and our Jewish brothers and sisters in America.”


  • “Israel is forever,” said Corey Shankleton, of Faith2Action Michigan. “In a time when all that was once held sacred seems to be under assault, we affirm our support of Israel and its people’s right as a sovereign nation blessed by God.”


  • “Today we stand with the Jewish students and the State of Israel who are suffering from unfettered hate speech from those who support terrorism and Hamas,” said Mark Gurley of Transformation Michigan. “In the 1930s, Hitler Youth used the exact same tactics on Germany's university campuses and we will not allow that to continue in America. One holocaust was more than enough.”


  • “We are thankful for the opportunity to stand with Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East. It is a bulwark for freedom and the rule of law in a region that has suffered for too long under the hand of radical Islamic jihadi violence. Israel's innocent civilian population was savagely attacked by Hamas on October 7, and it has the right to defend itself,” said Richard Harris, Esq., Executive Director of Truth & Liberty Coalition.


  • “We love Israel and we love and support Benjamin Netanyahu,” stated Mike Gottfried.


  • “Now, more than ever, with Israel in the crosshairs, we must affirm our commitment to the Jewish people, and to the nation of Israel itself.  We must go out of our way to bless and encourage. This is one small way of doing that.” stated Randal Cutter of New Dawn Community Church, in Coral Springs, FL.


  • "The Lawlessness and violence on display on college campuses today reflect the insidious evil of antisemitism and the ideologies that support it. University officials should stand up to these juvenile delinquents and keep their campuses safe or face termination," declared Ramiro A. Peña of Christ the King Church in Waco, TX.


  • Pastor Chris Reed of MorningStar Ministries pointed to Zechariah 14:2-3: "And I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem for battle: The city will be taken, houses will be plundered, women raped; half the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be removed from the city. Then the LORD will go forth and fight against those nations, fighting as on a day of battle.”


  • “We pray for the peace of Jerusalem and put our faith to action here at home,” stated Porter. “The Jewish Lives Matter movement has just begun.”
