*GoFundMe UPDATE: LANDED AT MY PLACE OF REFUGE, and DENIED ENTRY ONCE AGAIN!*

Link: http://gofundme.com/KJCharity

*LANDED AT MY PLACE OF REFUGE, and DENIED ENTRY ONCE AGAIN!

*DETAILS: Once again, I left Salt Lake City, UT for Tel Aviv, Israel by airplane in April 2019. This is the second time that I've attempted to legally enter Israel at the Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv. (My first attempt to enter Israel was made in February 2017.) At the Tel Aviv Airport, the Immigration Office determined that I DID NOT HAVE PRIOR AUTHORIZATION to gain entry into Israel, and denied me entry into Israel (until 2022, according to the U.S. Consulate General of Israel in Boston), because of "illegal immigration considerations," and "public security or public safety or public order considerations." Eventually, the Immigration Office arranged for me to be airplane transported back to the Boston Logan Airport in Boston, MA (a previous point of departure on my airline travel itinerary). Now, once again, I'm back in the United States, yet ready to return to Israel, "My Place of Refuge." [SEE BELOW LINK for my latest travel journal posts for more details.]

***Nevertheless, I am now waiting on the U.S. Consulate/Embassy Authorities to enlighten (with documented proof) the Israeli Immigration Authorities about the seriousness of my cause to gain Refugee status.***

*JANUARY-MARCH*

-------------

*APRIL*
In April, the locals of American Fork, Boston, Revere, Malden, Saugus, Lynn, Everett, Medford, and Chelsea offered me food, liquid refreshment, monies, discount(s), fabric bag(s), jacket(s), towel(s), print(s), newspaper(s), lodging, temporary shelter, ride(s), help, and encouragement. *End result: food, another replacement luggage cart, more bandages, another pair of pants, a new Bible, [floor mat] yoga mat (to use as a replacement camping pad) [NOTE: The Baggage Handlers at the Lisbon Portela Airport mishandled my hiking backpack enough for them to lose my ol' camping pad, "Protest/Demonstration" notepad, and U.S. Road Atlas.], another umbrella, another notepad, memo pads (writing pads), more [water resistant clear plastic paper protectors] sheet-display protectors, more pocket size facial tissue, another plastic floor covering (for my tent), and more socks

-AMERICAN FORK, UT-
*Outside of a Vacant Strip Mall Space (a former location of Chi-Ku Pan-Asian Kitchen [Asian Cuisine Restaurant]) adjacent to Costa Vida [Mexican Grill Restaurant Chain]: 1 Local Worker offered 'to pay for lunch' (from the Costa Vida next door), also asked about "my travel situation & story"...I was approached, while I used FREE WiFi w/ my tablet on one side of the vacant space
*[an International Coffeehouse Chain]/Target [Large Retail Department Store Chain]: [*FUNNY*]1 Dining Room Table offered coins ('spare change')...then I noticed the coins on a Dining Room table, soon after I entered the Dining Room[*FUNNY*]; 1 Store Associate, encountered earlier, offered FREE food (i.e., a hot meat sandwich... :( )...while I drank a cup of coffee (w/ my Reusable Cup) (purchased earlier)
*FedEx Office - Print & Ship Center [Shipping and Mailing Services Retail Chain]: 1 Worker offered a FREE print (Airline boarding passes)
*Bus Stop on State Street/US-89 (U.S. Highway 89) across from FedEx Office - Print & Ship Center [Shipping and Mailing Services Retail Chain]: 1 UTA Bus Driver [in a transit bus] offered a FREE ride

-BOSTON, MA-
*Terminal E/Boston Logan International Airport (BOS): 1 Airport Golf Cart Driver [in a golf cart] offered a FREE ride, also inquired about "my travel situation & story"...while I walked towards the skybridge (after exiting an elevator). [NOTE: Earlier that night, I picked up my hiking backpack from a Baggage Services Office (in the same Terminal). *SIGH* DEJA VU! Once again, my hiking backpack was somehow magically misplaced/lost, after I was DENIED ENTRY INTO ISRAEL by the Immigration Office at the Tel Aviv Airport, and sent back to previous points of departure on my travel itinerary. This time, the Baggage Handlers at the Lisbon Portela Airport (LIS) (a.k.a. Lisbon Airport) failed to place my hiking backpack on the return flight back to the Boston Logan Airport. Also, the Baggage Handlers must have mishandled my hiking backpack, because my camping pad (that was tightly tucked inside a sleeve attached to my hiking backpack), "Protest/Demonstration" notepad, and U.S. Road Atlas were still missing/lost. In retrospect, the Israeli Immigration Office (and the Tel Aviv Airport) could still be at fault, because they failed to secure my hiking backpack, by placing it in a large plastic shipping bag, and wrapping the load w/ tape. (In the past, other Airports secured my hiking backpack w/ well-taped plastic shipping bags.) On the previous day, a few Immigration Officers at the Tel Aviv Airport issued me another DENIAL OF ENTRY/EXIT ORDER (until 2022, according to the U.S. Consulate General of Israel in Boston) w/ transportation (via airplane) back to Lisbon and lastly Boston, after determining that I was an ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION THREAT, and PUBLIC SECURITY/PUBLIC SAFETY/PUBLIC ORDER THREAT. *CAN ONE SAY IN HEBREW, "THAT'S BULLCRAP?!"...!?זה שטויות* Besides, the Jewish eat bulls...LAUGHABLE! ( ′~‵) Unlike the 2017 denial of entry into Israel shock (w/ ah), this time I actually came prepared with a ROUND TRIP TICKET (in case Palestinian Muslims launched a jihad against me-"the dispeller of Islam," and I needed an emergency exit strategy... :) ), and new passport (free from the annoying rejection stamps of year 2017). According to this year's denial of entry/exit order, I'll have to submit a "request for re-entry into Israel" (???to the Immigration Office at the Ben Gurion Airport, and/or the Population and Immigration Authority???) in advance (before I return to Israel as a thousandaire of charity w/ a permit to finally walk through the Passport Control's Golden Gates). (Last time, in 2017, my requests for re-entry into Israel were quickly denied by the Israeli Immigration Office, and U.S. Embassy/Consulate Officials in Israel and France. So...AHA! If at first you don't succeed, then try, try again... Of, course!) So, I was denied entry into Israel, after I chose the best route at the Passport Control, HONESTY. They rejected me after I honestly explained that I traveled to Israel as a Christian-Pilgrim-Backpacker to 'visit the Holy Sites,' participate in Christian ceremonies (Rites of Passage) such as Baptism at the River Jordan, visit the new U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem, and then open a Refugee claim (at the U.S. Embassy). In short, the Passport Control Agent denied me entry into Israel, only after I mentioned that I planned to open a Refugee claim at the U.S. Embassy, which was the significant reason why I attempted to LEGALLY IMMIGRATE to Israel.]

*HYPOTHETICAL CONJECTURE (as a rhetorical wisecrack) of year 2018*

If ambulances (throughout the known world) continue to display the "Staff of Asclepius" medical symbol (from Greek Mythology), could the Asclepiadae* get FREE RIDES (in the ambulances in question)?

*NOTE: Medical/Health Care (a Healing Temple Order) is in honor of the Greek Mythology God of Healing, Asclepius. In Ancient Greece, Medical Schools developed in connection with Asclepeion Temples and Shrines of dedication to Asclepius. The Temple Priests were called Asclepiadae. Notably, the Greek Physician Hippocrates (the Father of Medicine) was an Asclepiad. Medical/Health Care Physicians swear by the Hippocratic Oath (the widely known Medical Ethics Oath attributed to Hippocrates).

<!---*DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT SUPPORT MEDICAL/HEALTH CARE. Medical/Health Care is the "PAGAN CULT of Asclepius" (an apostate Healing Temple Order w/ an OLD SERPENT ON A STAFF as the medical symbol). Medical/Health Care actively operates to SECULARIZE HEALING, and move the practice of Medical away from its necessary Religious context in Greek Mythology.---!>
