Dear Chavrei Knesset, amv"sh
מרדכי דויטש, אב ל-8, הוא חקלאי ממצפה יאיר אשר בדרום הר-חברון.
אחיו הוא שעיה דויטש הי"ד -- מנרצחי גוש קטיף: http://www.gushkatif.co.il/he/fullGallery/%D7%99%D7%93-%D7%9C%D7%A0%D7%95%D7%A4%D7%9C%D7%99%D7%9D/
אביו ז"ל, גם הוא חקלאי, ממושב הזורעים, איבד את משפחתו בשואה. הקים משפחה שנייה, 9 ילדים, ביניהם שעיה הי"ד ומרדכי.
מרדכי הקים חממות בקרקע שהינה אדמות מדינה, במצפה יאיר, לפני יותר מעשור, באופן חוקי ומקובל. אבל...
כמעט מייד, פלשתינים ערערו על כך שקרקעות במצפה יאיר בכלל הוכרזו (20 שנה קודם לכן!!) כקרקעות מדינה.
הערעור של הפלשתינים נדחה: המינהל האזרחי ציין, שהפלשתינים הפעילו כבר את אותם מסמכי "בעלות", במספר מקומות שונים -- שהמרחק ביניהם למצפה יאיר, הוא רב.
כמו כן, נמצא כי תצהירי הפלשתינים וחוות הדעת שלהם - מפוברקים.
כרגיל, הפלשתינים פנו לבג"צ. בתגובה, המינהל האזרחי נבהל ולפתע, הבטיח שהחממות של משפחת דויטש ייהרסו - עד סוף אוגוסט! כלומר: הריסה תוך 3 שבועות, והמשפחה נותרת ללא כל פרנסה. זהו בדיוק מסוג המקרים, שעליהם נמתחה ביקורת חמורה בדו"ח הועדה בראשות השופט בדימוס אדמונד לוי.
חברי הכנסת שהיו יכולים לבדוק את העניין ולבלום את הצעדים הבלתי-מוצדקים - הינם בחופשה (פגרת הקיץ של הכנסת)!! רק אם יראו שלציבור מאד אכפת- יתפנו לסייע בנושא חשוב זה.
לכן, אנא העבירו את המייל הזה כולו ישירות לחברי הכנסת!
כי אם חברי הכנסת ימשיכו את תנומת הקיץ, עלול להתרחש חורבן מיותר ומרושע אצל משפחת דויטש, בעוד 3 שבועות בלבד!
הצילו את נחלת משפחת דויטש!:

From THE BLOG OF MATTOT ARIM FOR ISRAEL
August 9, 2012.
Mordechai Deutsch, father of 8, is a farmer in Mitzpe Yair, south of Har - Hebron.
His brother is Shaya Deutsch HY"D - From those murdered from Gush Katif.
His late father z"l, also a farmer, from Moshav HaZorim, lost his family in the Holocaust. Established a second family, nine children, including Shaya HY"D and Mordechai.
Mordechai established greenhouses on State land, in Mitzpe Yair, over more than a decade ago, legally. But ...
Almost immediately, Palestinians disputed the fact that the land of Mitzpe Yair which was declared State Land 20 years ago was truly State Land.
The appeal of the Palestinians was rejected: the Civil Administration stated that the Palestinians already used the same documents "with" a number of different places - whose distance between it and Mitzpe Yair, is great.
It was also found that the affidavits Palestinians brought and their opinions - were fabricated.
As usual, the Palestinians turned to the High Court. In response, the Civil Administration got scared and suddenly, they promised that the hothouses of the Deutsch family would be destroyed - by the end of August! Namely: Demolition within three weeks, and the family is left without any income. Just the kind of cases, which was severely criticized in the committee report headed by retired Justice Edmond Levy.
Knesset members who could check it out and stop the illegal measures - are on vacation (Knesset's summer recess)!! Only if they see that the public really cares about this, will they evail themselves to help on this important subject.
So, please forward this email to all directly to Knesset members! (see TO list above)
If the Knesset members will continue the summer nap, this unnecessary destruction of evil in the Deutsch family may occur in only three weeks! (Now closer to two weeks Robin)
Save the inheritance of the Deutsch family!

רוצים לבלום את אורית סטרוק
ע"י ענישת בנה צבי סטרוק
מערכת אכיפת החוק חיכתה לרגע זה!
נפלה לידם הזדמנות פז לנסות לבלום את אורית סטרוק על חקירותיה היסודיות, ללא מורא וללא משוא פנים, בהתעללויות במתנחלים.
היום הוכח עד כמה עבודתה של אורית אפקטיבית ועד כמה המערכת פוחדת ממנה. לא רק שבג"ץ לא קיבל את ערעורו של צבי, אלא בג"ץ החמיר בעונשו וגזר עליו 30 חודשי מאסר. העוול זועק לשמים! אין שום הצדקה שבנה של אורית ייענש ויישב בכלא על עבודתה הציבורית של אמו.
דורשים משפט אמת וצדק שיוכיח לכל שצבי סטרוק חף מכל פשע!

They are trying to stop Orit Struck by punishing her son Tsvi Struck.
The law enforcement system has been waiting for this day! They found a
way to try and stop Orit Struck, head of the Yesha Human Rights
organization, known for her fearless and thorough investigations
against those who abuse the Jews in Judea and Samaria.
Today it was proven how effective and important Orit's work is and how
much the legal system fears her. Not only did the Supreme Court not
accept her son's appeal but they punished him even more; sending him
to 30 months in prison. The injustice cries out! There is no reason in
the world that Orit's son should be punished and sit in jail because
of the wonderful public work his mother is doing.
We demand a real trial, a trial of justice and truth in which it will
be proven beyond any doubt that Zvi Struck is completely innocent!
For details on the case, click on below article written a while ago.
Today the Supreme Court changed the verdict from 18 months to 30
months in jail. (Article below in full)

Tzvi Struck - A case of true iniquity By Dovid Wilder in Jerusalem Post.
A couple of weeks ago Tzvi Struck was sentenced to a year and a half in jail, a fifty thousand shekel fine, and, following his release from prison, a year's probation. Struck was convicted by Judge Amnon Cohen of kidnapping a fifteen year old Arab, three counts of assault, causing 'grievous bodily harm,' and intent 'to harm an animal.' According to the Arab youth, he was kidnapped, beaten and then tied up and left unconscious naked in a field.
Struck, 28 years old, married with three children, denied anything to do with the incident. A farmer in the Binyamin region (between Judea and Samaria, north of Jerusalem,) he grows grapes in vineyards on land legally appropriated to him by the State of Israel in the Shilo Valley. He had a clear-cut alibi: he was irrigating another field, in a different area at the time of the attack. The judge did not disbelieve the alibi. Rather he decided that Struck would have had time to do both: irrigate the other field and attack the Arab.
Who were the witnesses blaming Struck? Of course, the Arab youth. His father is a 'Palestinian policeman.' The main witness was brought to the trial from his jail cell. He is on trial for hurling fire-bombs at Jews. The attorney aiding the Arabs was Michael Sfard, who represents 'Peace Now.' The left-wing organization "Yesh Din' took an active role in the case. According to internal sources, the 'Palestinian policeman' – the accuser's father, actually directed the investigation, decided which witnesses should testify, and acted as translator during witness' testimony to police.
Tzvi Struck has a clean legal record. According to character witnesses, including the Binyamin area Brigade commander, Struck is 'gentle, restrained, and law-abiding,' and the crimes he is accused of are 'inconsistent with his behavior.'
Yet, the judge chose to believe the Arabs and disregard Struck's account. He didn't discount his alibi. But he ignored serious contradictions in the Arabs' testimony. Three of the witnesses presented essentially different accounts in court from the testimony they gave to the police. The attacked youth testified that he had never had any contact with Struck. Yet his father and others testified that they did know him and had been involved in land disputes with him. The father forgot to tell this fact to the police during prior questioning. Another witness claimed that the attacked youth hadn't been present at the 'scene of the crime.' However, the judge chose to ignore the contradictions, explaining them as 'innocent mistakes,' and stating that it is 'not worth relating to them.'
Much evidence seemed to disappear. Bloodstains, fingerprints, handcuffs, bloody clothing, and even the tree that the main witness hid behind, watching the crime being committed, all vanished. Or perhaps, never existed.
The judge based the conviction upon tractor tracks (the tractor was also never found) and empty gun cartridges from Struck's gun, (he wasn't accused of shooting at the youth). Judge Cohen literally stood on his head to prevent from calling the Arabs liars and acquit Struck. In essence, the judge had to decide who he believed. He chose the Arabs, saying that the identity of the attacker had been established beyond all doubt.
Why?
Arabs in the Binyamin region are furious at the fact that Jews work the land, as does Struck. There are numerous clashes between them and Jewish farmers. Struck had to deal with theft, sabotage, arson, destruction of young seedlings, and even shooting attacks while working at his own vineyard.
As the above accounts prove, numerous contradictions in testimony were given to the police and in court. Additionally, such blood libels against Jews are nothing new. The prime example is that of Muhammed al-Dura, the child supposedly killed by Israeli soldiers in Gaza. The film of his alleged death was exposed as a forgery and a fraud. And most lately, the infamous Goldstone report, now repudiated by its author.
And finally, the decision in this case can also be attributed to an attempt by the police, the prosecutor's office and the judiciary to avenge their pride, which has been sorely disgraced by Tzvi Struck's mother, Mrs. Orit Struck. Orit Struck founded and directs the Organization of Human Rights in Yesha (Judea and Samaria). The organization both defends Jews against fabricated criminal charges and also prosecutes police and others who have abused rights of Jews in Judea and Samaria. She is quite successful, and as such, has earned the wrath of left wing leaders in all walks of Israeli bureaucracy. Sending her son to jail for eighteen months, and forcing him to pay a fifty thousand shekel fine, is easily defined as pure, simple retribution. Otherwise, it is impossible to comprehend the judge's decision and conviction.
True iniquity.

Enough of politics where the the rule of law is I'll scratch your back if you scratch mine. Get the Edmund Levy Report into Production. Enough Supreme Court Shenanigans destroying peoples lives. Imagine it was your home getting demolished or your son put into prison for no reason. Hoshiva Shofteinu Karishona. Return our Judges as of Days of Old. Destroy this Masquerade "Court of Law" who parades as the Supreme Court of Israel under continued inaction of the Knesset and under the Netanyahu Administration. This Administration is being manipulated by forces who do not have Israel's best interest in mind. It is up to the Knesset to act forcefully and the people to not sit idly by! If not, it will come to haunt each and every one of us who stood by and did nothing! Chas VeShalom!

Dear All Activists and Lovers of Eretz Yisroel:
More than sixty-five American Jewish leaders signed a letter to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and urged him to adopt the findings of the Levy Report, which asserts that the "settlements" in Judea and Samaria are legal in accordance with international law.
The report, which was authored by a panel of renowned Israeli jurists comprised of Supreme Court justice Edmond Levy, former Foreign Ministry legal adviser Alan Baker, and former deputy president of the Tel Aviv District Court Tehiya Shapira, recommends against the future demolition of communities that had been deemed to be "illegal outposts."
The letter endorsing the Levy Report, which was spearheaded by Rabbi Pesach Lerner, Executive Vice President, Emeritus of the National Council of Young Israel, is signed by dozens of prominent Jewish leaders from across the United States, with additional people joining in support of the letter daily.
"As the Levy Report correctly notes, Israel is not engaged in 'military occupation' in relation to the communities in Judea and Samaria," the American Jewish leaders wrote in their letter to Prime Minister Netanyahu. "We believe that this conclusion vindicates the Israeli government, which has been unjustifiably vilified by many in the international community, simply because there are Jews living in this particular area of the Jewish State."
"Like you, we recognize and respect the fact that the Jewish people have inalienable rights to the land of Israel which stem from the Bible, and we are familiar with the historic legacy of the movement of Ze'ev Jabotinsky, Menachem Begin, and Herut/Likud, which you now lead, that has long endorsed Jewish rights in the entirety of the land of Israel," continued the Jewish leaders. "Viewing it from this perspective, the Levy Report confirms what we all know to be true and just, and it certainly warrants your support and endorsement."
In addition to expressing their staunch support of the Levy Report, the American Jewish leaders urged Prime Minister Netanyahu to reject the claims about the report that were set forth in a recent letter organized by the Israel Policy Forum.
"In our opinion, the individuals who have urged you not to accept the findings of the Levy Report under the pretext that Israel's status as a Jewish and democratic state could somehow be compromised by its adoption are doing a disservice to the State of Israel," the American Jewish leaders wrote in their letter to the Prime Minister. "Despite assertions to the contrary, the conclusions of the Levy Report do not 'place…the prestige of Israel as a democratic member of the international community, in peril.' We categorically reject this absurd declaration and sincerely hope and pray that you do the same."

Dear Prime Minister Netanyahu:
We write to you in support of the recent report issued by the Levy Committee. We welcome the report's findings and greatly appreciate the thorough process and honest approach undertaken by the well-respected legal professionals tasked with authoring this study.
We are heartened by the Levy Report's finding that the "settlements" in Judea and Samaria are completely legal under international law, and we are encouraged that the report recommends against the future demolition of communities that had been deemed to be "illegal outposts."
As the Levy Report correctly notes, Israel is not engaged in "military occupation" in relation to the communities in Judea and Samaria. We believe that this conclusion vindicates the Israeli government, which has been unjustifiably vilified by many in the international community, simply because there are Jews living in this particular area of the Jewish State.
Those who have repeatedly leveled criticisms at Israel for its willingness to sanction the "settlements" inexplicably ignore the fact that there are approximately 350,000 Jews residing in vibrant communities throughout Judea and Samaria, most of whom make immeasurable contributions to Israeli society. Playing politics with the lives and futures of these tens of thousands of families, comprising hundreds of thousands of Israeli citizens, is absolutely shameful and wholly unacceptable.
In our opinion, the individuals who have urged you not to accept the findings of the Levy Report under the pretext that Israel's status as a Jewish and democratic state could somehow be compromised by its adoption are doing a disservice to the State of Israel.
Despite assertions to the contrary, the conclusions of the Levy Report do not "place…the prestige of Israel as a democratic member of the international community, in peril." We categorically reject this absurd declaration and sincerely hope and pray that you do the same.
It is not the responsibility of the State of Israel to appease the United Nations or other entities whose interests run counter to the best interests of the Jewish State. We know that your government has not, and will not, mollify those who repeatedly have sought to delegitimize the State of Israel.
We fully understand that you work diligently, day in and day out, to ensure that the citizens of Israel are safe and that their interests are duly protected. We deeply appreciate your ongoing support of the citizens of the scores of communities throughout Judea and Samaria and your continuous efforts to enable them to live their lives fully and freely in their respective homes.
We all owe it to future generations to stand up now for the right and the reality of having the entirety of the Land of Israel, including Judea, Samaria, and all of Jerusalem, for our Jewish People.
Like you, we recognize and respect the fact that the Jewish people have inalienable rights to the land of Israel which stem from the Bible, and we are familiar with the historic legacy of the movement of Ze'ev Jabotinsky, Menachem Begin, and Herut/Likud, which you now lead, that has long endorsed Jewish rights in the entirety of the land of Israel. Viewing it from this perspective, the Levy Report confirms what we all know to be true and just, and it certainly warrants your support and endorsement.
We urge you to adopt the findings of the Levy Report, thereby formally validating the status of the Jewish communities of Judea and Samaria as a true part of the State of Israel within the purview of the Israeli government.
