Shay Seltzer is a legendary cheese maker, located at Mount Eithan, on Jerusalem Mountains. He's been making artisan goat cheese for more then 35 years and he has one of the only 3 natural caves for seasoning cheese exist in the world. 

Him with his goats and cheese are part of the nature texture of the mountain. His cheese is an acclaimed cheese all over the world and his goat farm was nominated for the UNESCO award. 

The authorities in Israel are trying with semi-legal actions to deport him from the mountain. 

Help him and us to leave him on the mountain, for our future.

I honestly cannot believe how many people are looking at this mountain now because it really felt like I was shouting into a void for so long. It feels like the air is shifting and honestly just seeing how much everyone cares about the goats and the cave makes the stress of these last few weeks feel a little lighter.

Shay's cheese is a national treasure. Why are they trying to ruin something so beautiful and unique? Leave him alone.
