Action Alert from Buddy. Still no homes for Gush Katif Jews. Still obligated to pay back loans after gov't destroys

bs"d

Let me add to Buddy's letter that it's totally disgusting that after the gov't so efficiently destroyed their means of Parnassa, their livelihood, the farmers are still required to pay back the loans and the mortgages on their homes and businesses in Gush Katif.  Demand that in addition to finding permanent housing for the people of Gush Katif, that their loans be released on the property and businesses that the gov't destroyed. Why should these honest hard working individuals have their credit ruined due to no fault of their own. Let the gov't take responsibility for these people's inability to pay their debts.

Subject: Still no homes for Gush Katif Jews
 
"Disengagement" from the Gaza Strip was completed on August 22, 2005 and from northern Samaria a day later.  It is now 1,000 DAYS since our fellow Jews were expelled from their homes, yet inconceivably, and tragically so, building of permanent houses for most of the expellees HAS NOT EVEN BEGUN!

Please write to Howard Rieger, Joseph Kanfer, Malcolm Hoenlein, June Walker, John Ruskay, Russell Robinson and Ronald Lauder.

howard.rieger@ujc.org,joseph.kanfer@ujc.org,malcolm@conferenceofpresidents.org,
jwalker@hadassah.org,ruskayj@ujafedny.org,rrobinson@jnf.org,rlauder@jnf.org,vegibud@gmail.com

Ask them what they have done LATELY to address the ongoing tragedy of the expellees from Gush Katif. 

Ask them what would happen to the up to 250,000 Jews who would be expelled from their homes should Olmert agree to "Palestinian" demands.

Demand immediate, SIGNIFICANT ASSISTANCE TO THE EXPELLEES.

Demand that they publicly say "NO" TO THE TWO-STATE "SOLUTION."

Thank you so much.

Shalom, שלום

There will be a march from Yad Mordechai Junction to Erez Roadblock this coming Sunday (Isru-Chag Pesach - 22 Nissan [27 April]) starting at 4pm - the former residents of Gush Katif will scream "Until When Will We Be Without a House?" ... "1000 days after the uprooting, most of us haven't even started building the new house".

How to write an effective letter to the Editor - a must read for activists.

tbs"d

bs"d


Dear Friends, amv"sh


Thank you Aliza for sending me these links on tips on how to write an effective letter to the editor so that it will be published.  I urge all fellow activists to take the time to read these very important suggestions straight from the experts at Honest Reporting and Camera. 


Aliza Karp writes:

below i have pasted links to valuable instructions for writing to the editor with publication as your goal. i will add that giving Tzedaka before hand will also add to success.

 

writing letters to the media is something that anyone can do. once you get printed - you make a very big impact! and yet it is something you can do by yourself or together with people you know. you do not have to tell the heads of organizations how to do their job - because when it comes to writing to the editor - anyone can do it and anyone can make an impact... but as i said before, it takes time, training and concentration to write a letter that will get printed.

 

studying the information on the links below is the first step.

 

Kol Tuv, aliza

Ethnic Cleansing vs. Entitlement, Judaism vs Democracy

bs"d

Dear Friends, amv"sh

CALL THE CONSULATE AND WRITE LETTERS!

As American Citizens we must recognize that America is forcing Israel to act against Israel's  National Security Interests and pushing her to relinquish her Sovereignty over the Land of Israel.

  Map in Abbas office     (thank you Stuart for sending)      
    
By forcing Israel to accept Fatah and Hamas as peace partners, they are meddling into Israel's affairs and basically putting the lives of Israeli citizens in serious danger.  

The implementation of the disengagement of Gush Katif has resulted in Ethnic Cleansing and Judenrein in the Gaza Strip.  The failure of the IDF to destroy the source of the Kassam rockets in Southern Israel has resulted in thousands of Jews running away from Sderot. Just today alone Terrorists in Gaza have fired a total of 13 rockets and 13 mortar shells at Israeli towns . (thank you Izzy Kaplan for latest update). The abandonment of the IDF of military units in Judea and Samaria, the dismantling of roadblocks, the arrest of military officers (Halamish brothers) when they protect their communities within Judea and Samaria, the eviction of a family when they move into their new home in Negahot, the latest decision to destroy the shul Hazon David near Kiryat Arba are all proof of subtle and not so subtle attempts to get Jews to leave their entitled Land.  This is coupled with monetary incentives which buys silence to enable the roadmap, the 2 State Solution to progress without protest. 

Can you imagine if a foreign gov't  would put pressure on the USA to stop expansion in a Jewish Community in the States e.g. Boro Park or Flatbush and then evict any new Jewish homes  that have been built recently.  Would this be considered Democracy?    Even by rules of Democracy, such actions are illegal.

Yet Israel is not meant to be a democracy.  Israel is the Land of the Jews and G-d's law is the ideal Law of the Land. 

Judaism has laws that can be misconstrued as racist.  Only the High Priest may enter the Holy of Holies and only on Yom Kippur.  Only the Priests can enter the Holy and only Levites can enter certain parts of the Temple Mount.  The land is divided among the Tribes. According to the Torah, every 50 years in the Jubilee Year, the land was returned to it's original owner's as determined by the allotment in Joshua's time.   Originally, the Land was divided by lots and which plot went to which family was also determined by lottery. Each tribe would then retain their inheritance forever.  The Priests and the Levites and the convert do not have territorial inheritance though they do have designated cities.  All the tribes accepted their designated Land apportioned to them.   Every seven years the Land is let to lie fallow and returned to the Creator of the world.  Can one tribe then claim that these laws are racists? Can an Israelite complain that it's not fair that the Temple Mount is closed to him and his family. Can he claim that the priests are racists?  Can he protest in the Jubilee year when he is forced to return the Land he "owns" to the original owner? Can he complain that the allotment of his brother is better than his own and really he is deserving?

We are awaiting the Messiah who will tell us who belongs to which tribe and once again we pray that we will know which parcel of Land if any is our rightful inheritance. In the meanwhile, we know that the Land of Israel is promised exclusively to the Nation of Israel. The Nation of Israel must keep and preserve the commandments.  Only we have entitlement.  There is place for the Ger Toshav, the resident that is not a member of the Jewish Nation, to live among us.  However, such a resident must accept the 7 Noahite Laws and accept Jewish Sovereignty. 

Is this racist?  This is Torah and from this all the blessings of peace and prosperity will flow.

Subject: LATEST TEST CASE:DESTRUCTION OF A SHUL NEAR KIRYAT ARBA
To: IZZY <israelkaplan@yahoo.com>


EMERGENCY GENERAL MOBILIZATION !
 
According to trustworthy sources,tonite, Monday nite April 28th, the security forces intend to destroy the Hazon David synagogue -outpost in Kiryat Arba and also to arrive in Neguhot (southern hebron Hills) and destroy the house of a family living in the Neguhot outpost.
 
All Jews loyal to the Land of Israel are asked to come this evening to Kiryat Arba and spend the nite in Hazon david in order to defend the place. Bring sleeping bags and all you need to spend the nite there.
 
As we have said many times- the government starts with the destruction of one building as a test case. Their intention is to destroy entire communities. By fighting tooth and nail for each building we are fighting for all of Erets Israel.
 
To all friends of Israel abroad we urge you to contact your local Israeli embassies, congressmen, newspapers etc... and flood their offices with phonecalls and faxes demanding to put a stop to the destruction of Jewish property and expulsion of Jews in the land of Israel. The building that needs to be destroyed instead is the house of the arab terrorist who committed the massacre in the yeshiva in Jerusalem a few weeks ago.
 
With love for the Land of Israel
 
Nadia Matar
-----------------------------
Translation of Letter written by the Hazon David keepers urging all to come:
 
To all lovers of Israel!
 
we were told that tonite the security forces plan on destroying Hazon david synagogue in Kiryat Arba.
 
If it is our fate here in Kiryat Arba Hevron to be the first ones who need to fight against the planned destruction - we will rise up to the challenge - strong and determined.
We will not allow another expulsion of jews from the Land of israel.
 
Reminder:
The Hazon david synagogue was built after the murder of David Cohen HY"D and of the local council member Yehezkel Muallem HY"D
 
The synagogue brought security to the residents of the Givat Avot neighborhood (especially the women and children) who, before that, were constantly harassed by Arabs.
 
All lovers of Israel are urged to spend the night in Hazon David to protect the synagogue. Please arrive not later than 10:00pm.
 
We hope that thanks to our efforts and with G-d's help, the decree will be overturned.
 
With love for the land and the people,
 
The hazon David synagogue
