Anita Tucker, an American immigrant who was forcibly evicted from her home in the Gush Katif town of Netzer Hazani says that despite the Comptroller’s Report on the government’s mistreatment of the Jewish refugees, obstacles remain in place embittering the lives of former Gaza residents.

“The lawyers tell us that the government’s representatives have now insisted that their own essayers, who had come into Gush Katif weeks before our expulsion to essay our homes, must now lower the figures they presented (which were based on what they saw and measured on our homes in Gush Katif then) because they are apparently disturbed by the fact that their figures are too similar to the figures presented by the private essayers that we each had privately hired before the expulsion,” Tucker writes. read more

Elon Moreh Yeshiva Head: Don’t Join the IDF

Full Text;

Rabbi Elyakim Levanon, head of the Elon Moreh Yeshiva, warned students not to join the army in order to avoid being forced to expel Jews from their homes in any further evacuation of Yesha communities.

According to a report in the Yediot Achronot daily it is the first time in Israel’s history that a Rabbi from that camp has specifically directed young Jewish men to evade the draft.

“If you think the IDF will force you to evict Jews from their homes or to go against your faith – don’t join the army,” he said. During last summer’s Disengagement from Gaza, Rabbi Levanon said he left the decision on how to act in the hands of students who were already serving in the IDF. read more

IMAGINE – THIS TIME 2006

By Miriam Adahan

It is March, 2006, seven months since the expulsion of some 10,000 Jews from Gush Katif. At that time, I wrote a piece called “Imagine,” decrying some of the tragic aspects of that terrible event. Now it is time for an update:

A new Gush Katif – “Katif Bloc of Settlements” – is to arise in the Lachish area, east of the Be’er Sheva-Kiryat Gat area, west of Hevron. It will be built mainly by former residents of Gush Katif.

Five new communities are scheduled to be built along a north-south 15-kilometer range – though most of them are still very much in the planning stage. It could be anywhere from 2-4 years before all the permits and approvals are obtained and construction is completed. read more
