I just had my 1st vegan anniversary. You spoke with my friend last month, and agreed to send me a short, personal video message especially for me! I just wanted to say THANKS! I was very moved by the video. It made my day and strengthened my will to keep being active. I want to sincerely thank you for your amazing lecture on Youtube. It made me vegan and with every passing day I’m just happier with the choice I’ve made. I just can’t believe it took me so long and how long society kept the truth a secret from me. You removed my eye blinders and showed me the truth and motivated me to act for the animals, for the planet, and for the human race. I still got a lot to learn and am learning it every single day.

It’s been 10 months since you’ve been to Israel and since I e-mailed you. Just wanted to update you that since our last communication i “upgraded” to veganism and am trying my best to spread the message to everyone else. Check out this message I received on Facebook from a meat-eater a few days ago: “You are welcome to take credit. I started eating vegan. I always thought about it but I i finally initiated that not having time to invest in preparing vegan food is an excuse.” I don’t know if you’ve been updated about whats going on in Israel since you left, but thought it was important to let you know what an impact you left. Thousands have turned vegan, restaurants started adding vegan meals to their menus, and more vegan restaurants have opened. You are mentioned in every conversation about meat, veganism, etc. Famous people here have turned vegan, TV shows started to talk about veganism and so much other positive stuff. When you lecture, it’s hard to know how many people you really impacted, so just wanted to send you this e-mail to let you know. Thank you for being the first to open my eyes about the egg and dairy industries.

I’m from Israel and here we call the police “Retzach” which means murder/murderer. That’s the term I use now for the meat departments in the supermarket. Continue doing the moral thing. May God be with you. Thanks for allowing me to pass so easily from the vegetarian world to Vegan Heaven! After 13 years I’ve made the switch because of you.

I live in Israel, and a friend introduced me to your presentation, I watched them and was shocked, amazed by your love for animals, and the cruelty of humans towards animals. I want to thank you for changing my life, Since I have adapted to veganism, I have lost weight, and feel better WITH myself, knowing that I don’t hurt innocent animals when I eat or drink. I support the heroic things you have done to save animals (like breaking into fur farms and releasing the animals). You have given me hope that not all human beings are so bad and cruel.

I am from Israel. I just wanted to let you know that me and my girlfriend decided get married. And the most important thing is that we are going to have a vegan home and live a vegan lifestyle. And we’re going to educate our children on the vegan lifestyle. Thank you for opening our eyes.
