Settlers stationed in Homesh were celebrating on Tuesday afternoon the ritual circumcision of the son of one of the families evacuated from the settlement in 2005.
Family members came to the settlement especially for the occasion, which was approved after negotiations between the IDF and settler representatives.
Hundreds of settlers who arrived at the ruins of the settlement on Monday morning also participated in the event.
The settlers have refused to leave the site, vowing to reclaim the home they lost in the disengagement from Gaza.

Excerpts;
Out of 1,667 families expelled from Gush Katif in August 2005 by the Ariel Sharon government, 1,405 are living together in 26 temporary sites. Not one permanent home has begun to be built.
In order to turn a temporary site into a permanent one, a contract must be signed between the government, the residents, and the permanent community already there or the owners.
Embrace of Jihadist ‘Peace’ By Caroline Glick (Jerusalem Post)
Excerpts;
Sunday, the Olmert-Livni-Peretz government has announced that it is open to negotiating on the basis of the Arab plan. As one government official told The Jerusalem Post, Israel will “not dismiss” the plan.
THIS IS Israel’s position in spite of the fact that the Arab plan calls for Israel to surrender east, north and south Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria and the Golan Heights to Hamas and Syria and for Israel to permit four to five million hostile, foreign-born Arabs posing as Palestinian “refugees” to immigrate to its truncated territory. As the “peace” plan makes clear, all these suicidal Israeli moves must come before the Arab states will be willing to have “regular” (whatever that means) relations with the indefensible, overrun Jewish state.
In our Parsha, Tzav is Moshe’s command from Hashem to Aaron HaKohen and his sons to take up and clothe themselves in their Vestments, their garments of service in the Mishkan, and to begin their daily Avodah (service and offerings in the Mishkan).
For seven days, Moshe taught Aaron HaKohen and his sons the laws of their Avodah in the Mishkan. (You might say that they were given, as they term it in the US, OJT from Shemayim.) On the eighth day, Aaron and his sons began their Avodah.

Gush Katif evacuees living in Nitzan don’t know who to turn to. They fear temporary site will become permanent, claim authorities will not take responsibility for them.
Gush Katif evacuees living in the mobile-home site Nitzan were hoping to celebrate Pessach, the festival of freedom, in a permanent location. However, the harsh reality is that a year and a half after they were removed from their homes in the Gaza strip, there is no solution for them in sight.

The site of the destroyed Samaria community of Homesh came alive Monday night with dancing and singing and plans for the future.
The musician “Yirmiyahu” provided melodies and musings in what participants called a “Woodstock with separate seating” atmosphere. Fireworks augmented light provided by a generator that was recently hidden in the abandoned infrastructure.
