A video posted on various social media networks on Thursday depicting a Chareidi man holding a Saudi Arabian flag in front of the Tower of David in Jerusalem, caused a stir and made international news. The man said in the video that he wanted there to be peace between Israel and Saudi Arabia and invited Saudi Arabians to come to Israel. He also expressed a desire to go and visit Saudi Arabia.
The video was viewed by thousands and created a stir on various social media sites.
The Foreign Ministry uploaded the video to their pages.
The man is a Chareidi resident of Bnei Brak and is very active on social media in his own right. He is well known journalist Yanky Farber.
Some responses showered the video with praise, while many others cursed out the video and the person in it. The CNN Arabic website posted the video as well garnering even more views of the video in the Arab world.
This video follows the video made by a popular Saudi Arabian blogger, Muhammad Saud, who posted a video of himself visiting Israel and getting attacked at the Temple Mount.

BH thats great keep going …
Why is this a big deal. Israel and Saudi Arabia are de facto “co-belligerents” (non-Allies fighting common enemies, e.g. Islamic State/al Queda as well as Iran). One should ask if the Ministry of Foreign Affairs put him up to it.
