There is a woman on Face Book who is an Obama follower and is asking for money for Long Horns for Israel. She has a good racket since she is also giving to Muslims hoping this will stop the Anti Semitism In her own written words she states
Shalom Chavrim,
Israeli beef cattle are in “long term decline in production efficiency.” This is the conclusion of research conducted by a scientist of Israel’s Agriculture Department; The problem is marked by annual calf losses of as high as 30%.
Our non-profit project offers a simple, logical, and relatively inexpensive solution to this disturbing problem—but we need your help.
Israel's Agriculture Extension Department is working with us to demonstrate through research that Texas Longhorn cattle can help Israeli herds. We then will provide Texas Longhorn cattle, calves, and their genetics to assist the failing ranches of Israel. Following that, at Heifer International’s request, our plan is to help East Africa ranches and then non-violent Middle East countries. Longhorn cattle are genetically pre-adapted to harsh desert conditions and can co-exist in these environments with less impact and damage.
To cover the nonprofit’s first year’s costs $256,000 is needed. Over the next five years we will require an additional $312,000 to bring the project to complete self-sustainability. The positive effects of this project will be profound and widespread throughout Israel, Middle East, East Africa and the American West.
The recent increases of fuel and feed grain costs along with famine and war in Africa have made this project even more urgent. Texas Longhorn cattle will improve agriculture practices and local economies and possibly decrease Anti-Semitism and Anti-American attitudes.
We are looking for donations of $1,000 from a 250 contributors, but even a small donation will be greatly appreciated. Working together we can solve this problem and be part of what would be a Mitzvah (Blessing) for Israel.

Lindsey Hilsum of ITN reports from Kenya on the worst
drought to strike the horn of Africa in more than a decade.
JUDY WOODRUFF: Next: the worst drought in a decade in
the Horn of Africa.
Lindsey Hilsum Independent Television News reports
from Kenya.
And a warning: This story contains some graphic
images.
LINDSEY HILSUM: Signs of death litter the ground, and
its smell lingers in the air.
Across Northern Kenya and beyond, severe drought has
killed hundreds of thousands of cattle and goats. Even the wildlife is
suffering. In the bed of the Uasin Giru River, dry for 10 months now, elephants
desperately forage for water. The younger elephants have perished, and the
Buffalo. The impala are dying of thirst.
People are digging for water in the dry riverbed,
trying to provide relief for both wild animals and domestic herds. They say they
will have to dig down two meters to find a drop. The Samburu are trekking their
cattle further and further, searching for pasture.
This land hasn't seen rain for nearly a year. The
cattle are just scratching around for something to eat, those that have
survived. What local people say is that the seasons have become unpredictable.
And climate change experts say, probably, that's the way it's going to be from
now onwards: more drought followed by flooding, more extreme weather patterns.
And the people who live in this arid part of Africa, dependent on their animals,
are going to have to adapt.
But they don't have the money to restock herds when
they die, nor to build dams to conserve water when the rains come. The Kenyan
government neglects this part of the country. And international appeals remain
underfunded.
The village of Mpagas is one of the worst-hit. The
people here are barely surviving.
LERIAN LAKANA, community elder: Since I was born, I
have never seen such an extreme drought. Almost all the cattle have died, and
the few still standing are dying now. I had 300 goats, but only 10 have
survived. Of my eight donkeys, seven died, and the last one is dying
now.
Millions of Kenyans need aid
LINDSEY HILSUM: The women and children hang about
under a tree. There's not a lot else to do. The children show signs of
malnutrition, and their mothers say, these days, they're often sick. They get a
little food aid occasionally, but no health worker has been here to weigh and
measure them. They're on their own.
A few miles away, in Namare, a government truck has
arrived bringing maize flour. It's not enough, but at least it's something. The
U.N. says nearly four million Kenyans urgently need food aid. The women here
told me four children had died of hunger in the last month.
NKODELAN LETORE, Kenyan: The children are suffering a
lot because there's no milk. The livestock we have now are all thin. We're
struggling, and the children are sick, although some are surviving. The famine
is bringing many problems to our community, especially to the children.
LINDSEY HILSUM: The Red Cross has come to do
de-stocking. They buy skinny goats for 1,000 shillings, well above the market
rate. The animals are taken to the rocks above the village for slaughter. The
meat will be distributed to the most needy families in the community. This at
least provides practical and immediate help.
LINDSEY HILSUM: The singing well, a Samburu tradition
-- these days, the water table is so low, the well is four men deep. The animals
are desperate, and so are the people.
Pastoralism remains the best use of this arid land,
but, as herders from different communities and tribes have to travel further to
find water and pasture, they encroach on each other's land. The Samburu warriors
told me they were fighting the Turkana.
'Survival under threat'
LTACHAWUA LETELEPA, Kenyan: We fight over pasture,
because of water, and also for land. Whatever the situation, animals must get
water. We were even raided here at this water point. A woman was shot dead here
on that day. Women don't go to fight, so we don't like these attack at the
wells.
LINDSEY HILSUM: Pastoralists carry not only their
traditional spears and knives, but Kalashnikovs. Dozens have been killed in
recent months. If they lose all their animals, herders end up unemployed and
poor in dusty townships.
JOSEPH LAPARIYO, Community Organization for
Development Support: It becomes kind of a survival for the fittest. So, they
fight over that scarce resource. And that just the scenario in Northern Kenya
now.
LINDSEY HILSUM: A Chinese company has brought a water
dowser to the side of the road, which they're building up to the Ethiopian
border, welcome, if temporary relief. But a dead donkey lies submerged in the
channel where people are scooping water to drink. Already, cholera has broken
out nearby.
In the last few days, a little rain has fallen. But
the remaining animals are so weak, they can't cope with the cold and wet. If the
rains now expected are heavy, they won't restore the pasture, but bring floods
and erosion, another curse.
People here don't know what to expect from the
future. They just know that drought is more frequent and severe than ever
before, and their very survival is under threat.
*Note: This was due to to drought, over grazing, poor
management of water resources, poor cattle management and using the wrong type
of cattle. R. Rosenblatt, M.Sc. Animal Science.
This Robin uses the guilt treatment that this is for Israel and it's a Mitzvah. Meanwhile these Friendly countries have and are still murdering Jews and Christians from within because their Korans tells them to do so. Muslims have already taxed Americans with a Jizyah Tax in the past of giving trillions of Tax Payers money to the Muslims who call for death to Israel and to America. Kenya has done this too.
A Jizyah Tax is Protection Money You give us money an we many not attack you or kill you but a deal with an Infidel is not binding and they generally will attack like the Palestinians are doing during this so called cease fire.
Now were is this money going for? Cattle? I dont think so. I asked a friend who has European Cattle and they state there is no cattle that has been removed from their Kibbutz or any Kibbutz they know of. But this women has gone on Jewish Pages asking for money for Muslim Kenya. Funny that it's Obama Homeland. I wonder how much money she has donated to Obama Campaign from Jewish money going to Longhorns. And how come the Israeli Papers along with Knesset Member never heard of cattle stolen off of Israeli lands. That would make the Israeli papers as front news.
The wars this Robin Rosenblatt is talking about is the war between the Muslim and the Christians in Africa.The Muslims attacked the Christians and burn down the farmlands and push them off the property. No Infidel can own property in a Muslim State. I believe it's time for the Christian Governments of Africa to begin supporting their own. Most of the Jewish Africans have been removed from Africa and absorbed into Israeli population. The more we give to the Muslims the more they hate Americans and Jews.
This Rosenblatt is miss-representing herself that all the money is for Israel when it is not. Texas Longhorns Money for Israel is not the case it's money for Muslim . This is sort of give the bully your sandwich in High School so he would leave you alone. Next he'll want your Twinkies.
I encourage you to investigate this Cattle Cause.
