EXCLUSIVE BOMBSHELL INTERVIEW: Israel’s Most Wanted Man Breaks Silence for the First Time

"My daughter Eden has attempted to take her own life several times, and only after we allowed her to talk to me did her condition improve. Today, she is a 26-year-old adult who has been forcibly hospitalized for no reason".

"When did it all begin? We can trace it back to her childhood. My ex-wife used to take her, and when her own nerves were frayed in the shower, she would set the water to a boiling temperature. This was even before I discovered the burns on her body. The kindergarten teacher asked, 'Where did the burns come from?' and my daughter replied, 'Mom said I mustn't tell.'

In these heart-wrenching words, one can understand the terrible tragedy that the State of Israel has refused to bring to an end—that of 26-year-old Eden Kapach—a tragedy that led to the extreme pursuit of her father.

A man seeking justice, whose only sin was being Eden's father. And that in this pursuit for justice he will become the most wanted man in Israel an outlaw and a fugitive —Yoni Kapach.

The scars won't heal over time, and the father's struggle to save his daughter will only begin.

"I do not hate people,” he tells me in his first-ever interview with any news organization.

“I hate bad people, and I am the cure against them. That hatred toward bad people will never fade, and unfortunately, I am the only one who can fight them," says the person who has become a household name in Israel after his controversial and successful news site, Ednakarnaval.com, was blocked in Israel by the authorities following sensational scoops.

"I disdain people who do what they are told, even in the army. Wherever I go, I am recognized because I step outside the system. I am not subordinate to hierarchies. And this drives the wicked crazy," Yoni does not mince words. "The State of Israel is my enemy state," he declares.

"They are keeping my daughter under the control and guardianship of the woman who abused her and handed her over to the welfare bureaucracy, which hospitalized her for no reason".

"My story is not a special one. My story is the story of everyone," says the mechanical and electronic engineer who was forced to flee his country after a journey of torment during which his daughter was institutionalized, and a considerable amount of his savings were robbed - leading him to embark on a life changing crusade.

Kapach is in no way an ordinary Israeli. He is a descendant of Israeli nobility, from the family of Rabbi Yahya Kapach, founder of the 'Dor Deah' movement zt”l, and his son, Rabbi David Kapach zt”l.

Among the important figures in the family, one can count Rabbi Yosef Kapach zt”l, recipient of the Israel Prize for Jewish Studies.

His own father is a senior rabbi in the city of Ashdod, his brother is the head of a yeshiva, and another brother is a doctor of Jewish studies and a lecturer. When I mention his lineage to Rabbi Yahya Kapach, he responds with characteristic wit, "What can you do? No one is perfect.

People are afraid to talk and interview him due to a fear of being put under Israeli security surveillance. But after a few conversations, it becomes clear that the person behind the phenomenon known as “Ednakarnaval.com” is not frightening at all and is quite different from the site he himself founded.

One could say that Ednakarnaval is his alter ego, created after 20 years of torment.

In Kapach's Israeli journey, there were several breaking points.

For him, "the first breaking point was in the army, during the prestigious pilot course. There was no one left to expel because they were all 'sons of' someone. So they expelled me.

My commander said, 'I'm really sorry, there are decisions above me, and I don't understand what leads to them, but these are the instructions I've received,' he revealed to me.

"Currently, the man whose news website the State of Israel has declared war on is living somewhere in the United States.

"When I leave, I'll tell you where I was so that uninvolved people won't be harmed. In my home, I am actually protected by the uninvolved."

And so, somewhere in the heart of the U.S., sits one of the most intriguing figures in the Israeli and Jewish landscape.

When I tell him that many people are wondering, "Who are you, Yoni Kapach?" he responds, "I also wonder who I am. I want to be Eden's father. I am both her father and her mother. That child has no mother."

He reveals a deep wound—that of a helpless child who, according to Kapach, was severely neglected by her mother and unjustly imprisoned through no fault of her own.

"So, until your eldest daughter, Eden, was taken from you, you were a relatively anonymous figure in the Israeli landscape?"

"Not anonymous, but yes—I wasn't involved in the media. I never imagined working in the media, never dreamed of doing it, and it didn't interest me," says the man who was once an engineer at Intel and worked on classified projects for the State of Israel.

"I liked being in the gray areas of life. I wasn’t one to step onto a stage or take action. I was a very private person—I cherished intimacy with friends and family. I wasn’t someone who liked to express emotions or give speeches."

"So when did you become one of the most wanted people in Israel's history?"

"I estimate that it started in 2002 when I attended the first pre-trial hearing at the family court. For four months, I had been completely seized financially—down to the last detail—because my wealthy ex-wife claimed I had left her with nothing. During that hearing, I realized from the judge that there was no chance of overturning the seizures against me, and my lawyer told me the process would take years.

So I started studying and investigating the matter. I realized there was a system at play here, and as a result, I decided to study law."

"At the same time, there was a false accusation against me in 2003, with threats from her family looming in the background. That false complaint shook my professional reputation.

My gun was taken away. I was interrogated under caution—all based on a completely false accusation of a push that never happened.

And then, they take your fingerprints like you're some common criminal. I was given a 14-day restraining order, even though I had done nothing. The next day, I saw her invading my personal space, blatantly violating the very restraining order she had obtained against me based on her false claim. Could there be anything more absurd?

The police refused to investigate her for filing a false complaint. I filed a complaint for false accusations, and it was thrown out. From that moment on, I carried a recording device at all times whenever I had any interaction with her, just to avoid falling victim to her schemes again.

But even that isn't a full safeguard—because by the time they review the recording, you could already be in jail."

"You were essentially a poster child for what Israel wants to present to the world—a man of science, high-tech, security, and a descendant of a distinguished and successful immigrant family. And then, suddenly, you realize it was all a bluff?"

"Yes. I discovered that every state authority, every institutional body in Israel, starts hunting you down. It begins with the court effectively marking you for destruction. In a one-sided ruling in my ex-wife’s lawsuit, the court decided to seize all my assets—up to 480,000 shekels—for no reason.

Why? Simply because my ex-wife sued me for alimony. And according to the ‘rule,’ the monthly alimony claim—which was 20,000 shekels in her case—is automatically multiplied by 24 months and preemptively seized. That’s what the millionaire claimed, and the court—like in the medieval days of a fourth-world country—just granted it."

But at this stage, Yoni is not yet a systemic victim. Right now, it's only the courts. Soon—once he refuses to surrender and sacrifice himself to those demanding his submission—the real chase will begin with a series of dramatic actions which will later be followed by his sensational exclusives targeting the heads of the state.

Before long, he will become not just an enemy of the courts but a combined enemy of the Ministry of Justice, the media, the prosecution, the Knesset, the Foreign Ministry, the Public Diplomacy Ministry, the Israel Police, the Shin Bet, and even the Mossad.

I ask the man, who holds a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from Ben-Gurion University and another in Electronic Engineering from Tel Aviv University, to describe the steps that transformed him from just another blip on the courts' radar into someone facing an international arrest warrant.

"I quickly realized that the system is not based on fair justice—it is ideologically driven. And that ideology is rotten. It’s feminism, which, let’s be clear, is a race-based doctrine promoting hatred of men. That’s the truth."

"If you’re a man, you pay. They can do anything to you. You behave nicely, we tell you what to do, and you obey. You have no human rights. You will call us 'Commander,' and we will rip you apart."

"Your child is no longer your child—only the mother’s. And if you want to be her father, we will filter and screen you.

By the way, this isn't personal against me—it’s an all-out war against Israeli men on every level. And that didn’t sit right with me. So I started looking into ways to fight back against the judge—not physically, but by neutralizing the bastard who was acting against Israel’s laws. Because this was anti-law.

I gathered information on him to air out his dirty laundry, and I found out he was involved with another man. I tried to get the message to his wife that he was a closeted homosexual—and in the end, he got divorced.

She threw him out. I did the same with another judge, whose misconduct I wrote about on my website. His wife also kicked him out.

People will say it’s revenge or settling scores—no! When they come to destroy you, your daughter, her life, my life, and my new family’s life, this is a duty.

“You shall purge the evil from your midst".

A man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do.

"And this is truly a fight for survival. Most people break apart, they get crushed like cockroaches. But I inherited toughness from my mother. I don’t break, and I don’t surrender.

"Did you inherit your toughness in the army?"

I was born this way. Ever since I was a child. There is no such thing as surrender—surrendering is dying.

In the army, I served in a special intelligence unit—I can't say anything more about it.

I know how to gather information. That’s my expertise. I can collect information on anyone," he suddenly says with grave seriousness, momentarily making one forget the sharp, ironic sense of humor he possesses.

"I told you about my pilot course. The second breaking point happened when I was near the house where Uzi Meshulam had barricaded himself. A policeman walked by, asked if I was Yemeni, and I answered yes. Immediately, they detained me and tried to take my weapon. It was a shock. A deep jolt. That was a moment of dramatic awakening—long before the legal battles even began back in 1994".

According to Kapach, "The law states, in Section 81(c), that both the father and the mother are obligated to provide child support. But the courts have decided to ignore the law. The law in Israel is a joke because the Knesset legislates, and the courts do whatever they want. There is no legal way to overcome this. It’s a gang that does as it pleases."

Meeting Aharon Barak

"Then, in 2007, I became a target of the state because I recorded a district judge—I don’t even remember her name—telling me, ‘How dare you sue for custody of your daughter?’ I recorded her, transcribed it, and distributed the entire story along with an audio file to all 120 members of the Knesset, in a well-organized, investigative report.

I handed them, on a silver platter, clear evidence of a judge breaking the law. That same day, I was summoned to the office of Aharon Barak. There, they asked me to delete the recording and ‘behave properly,’ telling me that what I had done was illegal.

I told him that recording was the only tool available. Back then, I was naive. I thought Aharon Barak was what they taught us in law school—a legal genius, a beacon of justice, the father of law, justice, and truth in Israel. And that’s when I was shocked.And that’s why I didn’t record that meeting with him."

"Suddenly, even in the government system where I worked, they told me that what had happened wasn’t good and that I needed to start calming down. I even met Prime Minister SHaron, but nothing happened. And sure enough, in 2009, they didn’t renew my contract at a branch of the Ministry of Finance that dealt with risk management."

"I asked my boss, a senior figure in the security community, about it, and he told me, ‘I have an idea—think outside the box. Go to your ex-wife’s father. He’s a rich and ruthless man. Go to him and say, I surrender. I won’t do anything. And you’ll see—all your problems will disappear.’

So I did it. I took the wind out of his sails. I drained his motivation and the thrill of fighting me. And that took the legal system off my back.

Because suddenly, my ex-wife—whose mother was a major figure, a senior lawyer with connections to judges—also backed off.

And suddenly, we returned to a somewhat reasonable relationship. She would even call me sometimes and say, ‘Yoni, I need help—fixing something, hanging something up, any problem’—and I would come over."

"And so it was from 2007 until 2018—there was quiet. I reached an agreement to pay higher child support to ease the pressure. And it worked out well for my daughter, who had a great relationship with her maternal grandmother.

Her grandmother took care of her and looked after her. Unfortunately, Grandma Elinor had cancer, and in the end, she passed away in 2011. This had a negative impact on my daughter, who was very close to her.

That’s when problems started arising—with my daughter and with her mother, including incidents of violence. With the grandmother no longer in the picture, things changed—because she had been taking care of both her granddaughter and her own daughter."

"From 2007 to 2018, my daughter Eden spent every weekend, every major holiday, and every summer vacation with me. I worked, and I enjoyed a perfect relationship with my daughter.

At the same time, I let others take the lead in fighting for fathers who were far less fortunate than me—to say the least. I had relatively low child support payments and excellent visitation arrangements.

From 2003 to 2015, I helped by founding organizations for fathers’ rights in Israel, operating under the radar. I also established 'Ednakarnaval - yet the site did not have much traffic at that time.'

From afar I continued to witness fathers taking their own lives—may God have mercy.

One case that shook me was that of Chaim Habibi, who barricaded himself inside the Church of the Annunciation. Habibi was a police officer who refused to send his daughter to school because she was being bullied and abused for having a non-Jewish mother.

They took his children. His daughter was sent to a boarding school. Another child was taken. Then another. And when they came for his youngest son, he barricaded himself with firecrackers—not lethal weapons.

They negotiated with him, extracted him, and sent him to prison.

I thought, Wow, this is a crazy story—I need to understand what’s going on.

I volunteered to supervise him under house arrest.

That’s when I was fully exposed to the depth of child abduction and child trafficking in Israel".

Despite things relatively settling with his daughter and ex-wife, the rift with the State of Israel only deepened.

"One of the major turning points came in 2012, I was a candidate for a prestigious position, equivalent to the rank of Colonel, in a classified government body. Then they told me I couldn’t continue because of an ‘intelligence issue.’

Intelligence officials said there was information about me—about my fight against the courts, about my activities, about this and that.

And they decided: You're not suitable.That was the moment my connection with the State of Israel ended.

From June 2012, I became Israel’s greatest enemy.

My wife tells me to be precise—Israel is controlled by gangs."

"Gangs?"

"The police. The prosecution. The IDF. The Shin Bet. The Mossad. They control everything. They collect information on all of us, in every corner, at every point. There is nothing they don’t control. He is one of theirs."

"They operate based on gathering information, presenting it to those who pose a potential threat, and carrying out extortion through intimidation.

Most police officers don’t even understand how the police truly work. They sense that things are rotten because the organizational culture is corrupt, but the people they recruit are those who follow orders—not the law itself.

I founded Edna when I realized that the entire media had united against us."

"Between 2012 and 2015, my daughter was still with me most of the time. Her mother was in Canada with her sister. But in 2015, she went back to her mother". Yoni tells me as we keep moving back and forth from the "Public", to the "Private".

"After years with me—where she thrived and succeeded—everything changed the moment she went back to her mother"

"Within a few months, she was placed in an institution. I couldn’t do anything—welfare services were involved, and things only started to improve when they allowed her to talk to me again."

"Then things got even worse. When I went to close my enforcement file at Hotza’a Lapo’al (the Israeli Execution Office), I discovered that my ex-wife—who had been receiving child support in cash for years—had never closed the case. So the debt kept accumulating. No payments were recorded, only an ever-growing debt, and she never reported it.

Yoni at the UN

The Execution Office told me that the registrar refused to close the file. Nothing helped. By 2019, and up until March 2020, I was fighting to close the case while enduring relentless harassment. The registrar told me that if I provided guarantors, things would be fine.

I arranged for my sister-in-law and a friend from the moshav to act as guarantors. And on the very day I was supposed to receive approval to leave the country, I left—and went straight to the UN.

There, I argued alongside the Arabs that Israel is a systematic violator of human rights, hat human rights do not exist there.Then I traveled to Switzerland and applied for political asylum.

The UN told me I would be placed in a detention facility for six months while they assessed my eligibility."

"In the end, the registrar ruled in my favor but left the interest intact, which kept the debt at 134,000 shekels.They imposed liens, a travel ban, and Intel started transferring my salary directly to the Execution Office.

Meanwhile, my wife was diagnosed with cancer a few months earlier.

I had two small children, a wife battling cancer, and no money—yet they unlawfully seized my funds. That was a breaking point—a massive one.

My family refused to join me.

I bought a plane ticket.

A week later, they tried to issue a new warrant against me.

The feminist state had collaborated with my ex-wife, to relentlessly hunt down an honest man and place his daughter in a closed institution.

I’m not a unique case.

Every case is the same. I arrived in the United States—to sue the State of Israel.

You believe that in all democratic countries, men have no human rights?

"Interesting, isn't it? For 20 years, I was a prisoner in Zion just because I brought a child into the world. The only thing preventing my daughter's freedom is the existence of the State of Israel and the baboons who collaborate with it. If the state collapses, my daughter will be free".

But you're aligned—at least in appearance—with the wrong side. If you want to bring down the state, shouldn’t you support the left, which is already working to dismantle it?

"The left is the state".

Yoni believes a long-term takeover by historical leftist forces has hijacked the Zionist project. In his view, Zionism itself is a left-wing enterprise, and the right has almost always been a controlled opposition.

"Not for a single moment was the State of Israel truly ours," he says

."They want a state where they can commit their crimes without interference."

Today as he lives in exile the website is so successful even judges leak him stories and he had become the source of fear of the Israeli establishment.

He had a huge scope on the israeli spy software of NSO and it’s connections with the israeli authorities and how they allegedly worked together against US companies, exclusives about Itzhak Amit Supreme Court Chief Justice, Bombshell exclusive about Israeli Attorney General, and even a story that led the Mossad to attempt and track him down after he argued a leading political figure's husband was involved with Hamas’s Yehie Sinwar.

The man who was in a special unit in the IDF, had high level security clearance working for the government, is now playing israeli censorship laws like no other man alive - all together with an international arrest warrant.

And stiil, one of his major battles is not against a state or an Institution but against feminism: 

"Feminism is a movement of male hatred, not women's empowerment.”

"It's men who are sent to die in battle, who live on the streets, who build everything. There’s no such thing as discrimination against women—I don’t know a single woman who has been discriminated against".

"While the whole world was screaming about women’s oppression, Israel had a female prime minister. If women were truly oppressed, how did we have a female leader?"

"The fact that women were given a free pass to file false complaints only led to an explosion in the number of complaints” he argues.

The Lawsuit Against Israel in the U.S.

After arriving in the U.S., Yoni decided he would not give up on justice.

He believed that in America—the so-called nation of justice—he could finally receive a fair and transparent trial.

"I wanted just a little of that cosmic substance they call justice. Unfortunately, I was disappointed again."

He filed a lawsuit arguing that he had been a modern-day slave—working without receiving a cent. He even considered moving to Germany as an ironic twist of fate. "I wanted to seek asylum from the Nazis for being Jewish—only this time, I was fleeing from Jews. But then COVID happened, and I got stuck in America. The courts weren’t working. At some point, I filed a lawsuit in California against my employer, Intel, and nine Israeli judges connected to feminist organizations in Israel."

The case was dismissed without discussion on four key grounds

1. Intel Israel is subject to Israeli law and is not obligated to pay an employee even a single cent.

2. Not receiving a salary for six months does not constitute forced labor.

3. Israeli judges who violate basic human rights are entitled to immunity.

4. The lawsuit was not filed in good faith and was merely an attempt to evade child support payments.

"All this," Yoni notes, "without Israel even needing to respond."

One judge was initially assigned to the case, but then he was replaced with another.

"California is run by Democrats, and the Democrats have always supported slavery. I failed to grasp that reality.", he adds.

So when Israel and the U.S. withdrew from the UN Human Rights Council, claiming it was corrupt, Yoni believes they should have acknowledged that they themselves "systematically violate human rights—just as they did in my case and many others".

"Israel was hoping I’d kill myself—just like the 300 fathers who take their own lives every year."

When asked why Israel is worse than other countries in this regard, Yoni quotes the Torah: "Pharaoh commanded all his people, saying: 'Every son that is born you shall cast into the river, and every daughter you shall keep alive.'”

"There was once a leftist-feminist king named Pharaoh, Now he has taken refuge in Israel and I will not rest until I put on trial his people who are in the Israeli Judical system”
