[Jacob-list] Is this for real?

[Cathie and Mark Williams]

Was it from Nisim Bahar?  If so, yes, this is true as far as we can tell.  We've been corresponding with him for over a year now. He wants a large quantity of sheep (50 ewe lambs and a handful of rams) but is constrained by his national vets who want (among other things) full scrapie certification and animals that have been under the continuous care of a veterinarian for 5 years.  

I sense that money is not a concern for Nisim (just the sort of customer we'd all love to have) but I think it's a long-shot that he'll ever pull this off. I also don't think he's got a grasp of US geography. Interesting that he's contacting others now.

  I recently received a registered letter from someone near Jerusalem.   Says he just bought a "large piece of land in the Jerusalem Forest" and would "like to breed Jacob sheep."  Also said he was "negotiating at the present with several breeders from the U.S."

  Has anyone else heard from this gentleman?  Just curious.
