(IsraelNN.com) Six Israeli cowboys plan to ride horses across the United States in an effort to raise awareness of Israeli culture and Israel’s upcoming 60th Independence Day.  The group will ride from the Canadian border to the Mexican border, stopping in Jewish and Christian communities along the way.

The six explained that they had chosen a relatively easy route because their main goal was to gain publicity and fight stereotypes, and not the trek itself.  The six plan to ride Israeli horses and carry the Israeli flag throughout their journey.
