Dallas, Texas: Pro-Israel Christian event indefinitely postponed due to jihad threats
By Jihad Watch
In the face of weakness and complicity on the part of U.S. authorities, jihadis are more emboldened in this country than ever before.
“Security Threat Shutters Israel Summit: ‘This is a Jihad-Like Attack on America,’” by Maayan Hoffman, The Media Line, June 6, 2025:
A Texas event for Christians supporting Israel had to move venues following ‘extremely concerning’ security threats. When the location of the new venue became public, prompting more threats, the group was forced to cancel the event.
A pro-Israel Christian event scheduled to take place in Dallas, Texas, was indefinitely postponed due to threats reportedly made by “radical jihadist” elements in the United States.
The HaYovel Israel Summit, which was initially planned for the Arlington Expo Center and later moved to Eagle Mountain International Church, was canceled on Thursday. According to Tim Miller, CEO of the LionHeart International Services Group, a private security company, security intelligence indicated that “there was active planning to target this event.”
Miller, a veteran Secret Service officer and former member of the Marine Corps, described the security alerts as “extremely concerning.” He referenced the recent murders of a young couple working at the Israeli embassy in Washington, DC, as well as the firebombing of a group of peaceful Jewish marchers in Boulder, Colorado, last week.
“That tends to inspire like-minded people to physical acts of violence and that was the concern and a foundation for some of the decisions that were made,” Miller told The Media Line.
In a letter to the 700 expected attendees, HaYovel—an organization that brings Christians to Israel to volunteer—wrote, “While we are unsure of where and when the next Israel Summit will take place, we are not giving up. One thing we are certain of is this: the enemies of God’s Kingdom will NOT prevail. Together, we will continue to stand with the land and people of Israel.”
The organization apologized to those who had made travel plans and hotel bookings, saying it would work to issue full refunds for the three-day event, which was set for June 9 through 11.
We are dealing with radical anti-Israel, anti-American groups that are very violent and are willing to threaten and even cause harm to people that won’t align with their agenda. Americans are rightfully scared of them.
“The problem is that people do not understand who they are dealing with,” said HaYovel CEO Joshua Waller. “We are dealing with radical anti-Israel, anti-American groups that are very violent and are willing to threaten and even cause harm to people that won’t align with their agenda. Americans are rightfully scared of them. … This is not how Americans act. This is a jihad-like attack on America.”
Waller, who spends most of his time living on Har Bracha in Samaria—a hilltop settlement in the West Bank—told The Media Line that these radical elements need to be called what they are: “Terrorist groups in America.”…
