\nThis author was among the 3,000-5,000 people who attended the<\/strong> Gush Katif Remembrance event<\/strong><\/a> near the Kisufim checkpoint.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The event featured a number of speakers, both youth and adults who spoke about Gush Katif, interspersed with acappella negunim conveying a spirit of returning to and rebuilding Gush Katif. <\/p>\n

This author visited with Rabbi Yigal Kamenetsky, the Rav of former Gush Katif residents as well as MK Tzvi Hendel and with a Rav who spoke 4 years ago at the<\/strong> Hachnasat Sefer Torah which took place on 4 July, 2004 at Shi-rat Hayam.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, it is noteworthy to cite how vindictive the Israeli government is toward the former Gush Katif residents 3 years after they expelled them, even to the extent of the<\/strong> IBA’s censoring an ad promoting purchase Gush Katif Yahrtzeit candles<\/strong><\/a> because the ad “used the word ‘expulsion,’ instead of the official term ‘evacuation.'”<\/strong><\/p>\n

This harrassment piles on top of recent disclosures that the regime left the former Gush Katif Jews holding the bag regarding<\/strong> Arab worker claims of “wrongful dismissal” <\/strong> <\/a> and of the facts which a<\/strong> recently appointed state commission of inquiry<\/strong><\/a> will find; that 3 years later, the former Gush Katif residents have received but a mere fraction of their legally mandated<\/strong> full compensation,<\/strong><\/a> none have been officially resettled anywhere and many still face<\/strong> repeated threats of further evictions from their temporary residences.<\/strong><\/a> <\/p>\n

At the same time, murderous terrorists<\/strong> prance around the ruins of the former Gush Katif communities<\/strong><\/a> training for their next terrorist attack and<\/strong> stockpiling hundreds of tons of explosives,<\/strong><\/a> “precision guided missiles, thousands of machine guns and 10 million rounds of ammunition” in preparation for the official end of the oft-violated “truce.” MB<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
