US cowboys travel to Israel to help farmers harvest their crops: They have a 'right' to this land

Amid the Israel-Hamas war, a group of American cowboys traveled to Israel in an act of goodwill to help farmers harvest their crops.

Montana cowboy John Plocher joined "Varney & Co." live from Israel to discuss his trip, detailing the extensive efforts his group has made to help the community regain a sense of normalcy. 

Plocher traveled to Israel with three Montanans and one cowboy from Arkansas through an evangelical Christian volunteer-based operation called HaYovel.

"Well, what we're doing is we're out here in Judea and Samaria," Plocher explained. "What they're doing is they're supporting the farmers and the Jewish communities out here in Judea and Samaria. They're bringing things, essential supplies needed for the communities around here so that what happened on the attack here recently doesn't happen out here."

"They're bringing in bulletproof vests, night vision goggles, security drones, stuff to keep these communities safe. So what we're doing is, we're distributing supplies. We're working on a warehouse here on base. We've been out in the communities helping with just regular tasks, just stuff where they're – all the men have been called up for the draft. So, we've been working on some of the farms around here and stuff like that."

FOX Business' Stuart Varney joked that the cowboys would "stick out like a sore thumb" in Israel, a sentiment that rang true according to Plocher, who said they had been stopped and asked to take pictures with locals multiple times.
