Thanks to the widespread exposure and rabbinic condemnation of their pagan deity and false messiah, the remaining cult members of Berland’s wicked “Shuvu Banim” cult, once free to threaten their enemies with violence, are now reduced to a degree of secrecy, while still trying to entice new victims. This, then, is the season to reveal their true face, before the awareness and outrage against Berlandism fade.

In the Anglo community in Eretz Yisrael, there is a new missionary weekly “parsha sheet” in print, called “The Shoemaker Report” by Mr. Hoshea Allen, used as a recruitment tactic.

His original\true name is Stephen John Allen (from LinkedIn). Academic bio:

Every such “Report” by Allen includes a manic prayer obviously written by Berland yemach shemo himself, complete with stupid gematrias in parens. This is how we know beyond the shadow of a doubt where all this is coming from and leading to, despite the “Shoemaker’s” vain attempts to conceal his dark affiliation.

Quoting Hoshea Allen’s “About” page on his website:

“Inspired by a hidden Tzaddik in Jerusalem, we launched The Shoemaker Report in April 2022.”

You can guess which so-called “hidden Tzaddik” the ‘royal we’ intends here…

Here is a comment left by H. Allen concerning Elmaliach, Berland’s chief messianism promoter (Hyehudi Editor wrote about this here). It’s clear Allen is no deer in the woods:
