Young Naturist Causes and Support Of Artists 4 Israel Golan Endeavor

(This post was written and published by Jordan Blum)
For the longest time neither Felicity, Nudist Portal nor myself have replied to any of the countless negative opinions or ridiculous accusations made by some individuals (mainly from within the Naturist and Naturist communities).
But something occurred when we released the statement of the approaching occasion by Artists 4 Israel. The second we released the statement we started receiving all kinds of comments. While most of the comments were supportive, a growing variety of them were negative.
Artists 4 Israel Golan Project
Therefore I want to take this opportunity to address some of the problems. For those who are unaware, I would like to start by summarizing some of the facts:
The Artists 4 Israel occasion wasn't created by FKK
The big event was created to raise cash in order to to dress up some of the bomb shelters in the Golan Heights
The Golan Heights borders Syria and with all the instability in that state there's a danger that people in Israel, especially in the Golan, might get shelled. This would mean that people (and kids) might have to spend time (perhaps days or weeks in the bomb shelters)
The event organizers contacted FKK to see if we're able to help with locating bare friendly people that would be willing to get body painted naked (not professional models - we were asked if anyone in our community would be interested)
The Artists 4 Israel endeavor intention: "Using artwork and attractiveness across the Golan to counteract the anxiety and uncertainty of strikes from Syria"
I know how dreary and sad they could be.
Here are Our Bare Fundraiser Naked Cocktail Party Has Emerged! of the comments we received:
The Golan Heights is not on the border with Syria, it's Syrian territory illegally annexed by Israel.
This group is attempting to use artwork and partying to distract from Israel's oppressive practices.


A horrible thought that supports illegal settlement and Apartheid!
There were also much more disturbing comments on Facebook. might suggest they seek out bare organizations within their own areas and bring along a made comments that insinuated that Israel as a state (and the Jewish people that resides there) do not have a right to exist. Some took it a bit farther and insinuated that by default - I (as in myself personally) do not possess the right to exist.
For the record I would really like to formally say - Screw everyone who believes that one innocent child's suffering is less important than another!
So with that at heart. I want to simply say to those people who made the comments - "You Are Acting Like Fairly The Asses" (and I mean it from your bottom of my heart). To those who singled me out - "I am here and yes I am Jewish - Deal with it!"
None of those individuals who demanded that we not help out innocent civilians in the Golan offered to create an occasion to help the people on another side of the fence.
I would like them to note the following facts:
We never said no to helping out a fundraiser for the people of Syria.
We failed to turn down any organization that was legitimately attempting to do great nowadays.
We have always been supportive of organizations that are willing to accept our values. Notably those who go to date as to incorporate them into a central part of their event.
The interactions with the event organizers has been nothing but warm, respectful and positive.
nudity as a scapegoat for problems including rubbish and drug use that necessarily appear in high-use recreation areas are not a big organization, but we do as much as we can and then some! And within an industry that's less than forward believing or open minded and encouraging. So with that in mind I think it is time for all you hate mongerers of late to put your money where your mouth is. Go out and create a see-through collaborative occasion that integrates and celebrates the love and approval we've for individuals - the human beings themselves. Quit bitching and creating play because you appreciate ranting in public! Kick the ego out and reach work! If you really care then concentrate on creating something positive rather than trying to hinder our efforts and creating drama.
Once you've it all together then let's know :) Till then - please behave with respect and notice that we're doing what we can, with what we have to send a positive message.
IT's ABOUT THE LOVE!
Truly,
Jordan Blum
