Urgent Freepers. ( Help The Jews of Gush Katif)

PLEASE SEND THIS MESSAGE TO ALL YOUR CONTACTS AND MAKE SURE THAT YOU ALSO CALL.

PLEASE!

Our brothers in Israel need our help at this time. The plan for unilaterally expelling the Jews from their homes in Gush Katif was defeated in the last Israeli election. Despite that fact, Ariel Sharon is moving ahead to forcefully remove Jews from their homes in Gush Katif and in four towns in the northern Shomron. This will lead to increase terrorist activity, NOT to the people of Katif, but to all people in Israel.

Jewish teenagers are sitting in jail for nonviolent civil disobedience while Arab terrorists are set free.

We must let the Israeli government know that what they are doing is wrong. This is very simple to do!

Call the Israeli embassy or your local consulate and tell them what you think. Call them as often as you can. Call them back and ask them to let Ariel Sharon know that what he is doing is wrong. Call them again to find out if they have canceled the expulsion plan. Have your friends, neighbors and relatives give them a call.

Keep calling until this madness is stopped.

Be polite but persistent. Imagine what will happen if every Jew that cares calls. Their phones will be rendered useless.

This tactic was very effective in our fight for Soviet Jewry. They had to change phone numbers. Our message was received loud and clear!

Enclosed are important numbers to call. Surely it is a lot easier for us to call from our homes and work places than it is for good Jews in Israel to sit in jail for trying to stop this madness.

I'll get on the horn. Thanks for the heads up.

[bikepacker67]

Uhhhh I'm sorry, but I'm with Bush and Sharon on this one.

Sorry illegal settlers, but ya gotta scram.

[Lord Nelson]

I smell another anti-semite

Everyday, many people in Israel are making Gush Katif their new home in spite of, and to help thwart, the government’s expulsion edict.

Everyday, the people at Minhelet Kela, the Gaza Absorption Authority, are renovating old caravans and other buildings for them.

But, financially, they can’t do it alone. Any assistance you can provide would be most appreciated

This tactic was very effective in our fight for Soviet Jewry.

I thought we defeated you Soviets.

[CondorFlight]

It would make sense to negotiate with the Palestinians
over land if the Palestinians were like Finns or Swedes,
and had a democratic government that respected the rights
of their own citizens, and kept international agreements.

But giving any land now to the Palestinians
is like negotiating with Hitler over the Sudetenland. He was a maniac and giving him anything only made war more certain, not less.

Ditto for any land deal with the Arabs. Let them become
democracies which uphold human rights for their own citizens, before even thinking about turning over an inch to them. Giving them land now will not solve anything,
but only make their demands increase.

[ElisabethInCincy]

Sorry that posted weird....

[bikepacker67]

not anti-semite, just pro-progress.

The '67 borders is a nice compromise.

[steel_resolve]

Someone disagrees with your opinion and you call him an anti-semite? Pretty F-ing lame...

[babble-on]

i agree with you, and I guess Ariel Sharon must be an anti-Semite too.

[Nachum]

Ariel Sharon is a liar.

[Lord Nelson]

Calling the settlers illegal makes me suspect that yes. I have no use for anti-semites. They are lowere than beetle dung. Many cloak it by calling themselves anti-Zionists. Same damn thing. But I apologize, not to you, but to the fellow I called anti-semite. I jumped too quickly to that conclusion. The West Bank was taken legit by the Israelis in the Yom Kippur. It is theres. The Arabs are there on Israel's good will.

[sheik yerbouty]

Really, like what? Between a ghetto and treblinka?

[bikepacker67]

Ya know... The "Semitic" tribe is really the tribe of Isaac and Ishmael. The indigenous Muslims and Jews of that area are of the same genetic stock -- a stiff-necked, arrogant bunch of SOB's!

Frankly I am SICK and TIRED of the 'World At Large' trying to solve this family squabble.

[Lord Nelson]

Well now you proved it. You are anti-semitic stinking compost pile. And what stock are you from. You sound arrogant and daft to me.

[Brad’s Gramma]

BTTT!!!!

Thanks for the phone numbers!

[bikepacker67]

LOL...

Go Easy there.

Do you disagree that the term "Semitic" refers to Abraham's descendents?
