Hapoel Jerusalem withdrew its offer of free advertising for Cafe Basimta after learning the Jerusalem establishment is operated by Jews for Jesus. The cafe had previously gained attention as a symbol of secular resistance in the city.

The retraction followed public disclosure of the owners' Messianic Jewish affiliation, prompting the sports club to distance itself from the business.
