Dear Friends: It really is time for a response -- both for
our own constituency and for the people of Eretz
Yisrael.
If we remain silent much longer we
will be aiding and abetting these outrages. As a member of the Rabbinical
Alliance of America (V.P.) and as a member of the RCA, I have called
repeatedly to the Israeli Consulate in NY to arrange a meeting re: Hebron
and now this. They reply with every inane excuse that the Consul General
has no time and neither do his assistants. You get the picture and in the
interim the people of Gush Katif and a whole segment of Israeli society
have become HEFKER delegitimized and made into radicals because of
their love of Torah and Tzion.
I may be reached at my office 203
866-0534 or cell 203 247-6289. Please advise what we may do to help the
situation become calm and more importantly not repeat itself with the
government of Israel "obscuring" what is going down.

Ramallah and terrorists (govern) in Jerusalem. The government

wounded including three Knesset Members. Among them is former

"A line was crossed in
Amona and this cannot be accepted," said Acting Prime Minister
Ehud Olmert on Wednesday evening. He said the restraint and
determination of the security forces that carried out the
evacuation was admirable.
MK Effie Eitam, who was
wounded during the violence, said "30 years I fought on the
battle fields, and I never believed that I would be wounded by
a Jewish policeman while I was doing my duty as a member of
Knesset."
Tnu Lahayot Lihyot - Israel's main animal
rights groups - protested against the use of horses in Amona's
evacuation on Wednesday. Tnu Lahayot Lihyot suggested
alternatives such as jeeps or motorcycles, such that no
animals would be endangered.
The animal rights group's
spokesperson also noted that following the evacuation, one of
the residents of Amona was taken to a court hearing, leaving
behind a herd of 130 goats without any supervision. The
spokesperson, voiced her concern for the abandoned herd.
