Dear Friends and Supporters,

This Friday at 10:00 the Bagatz will reconvene to discuss the 9 appeals
regarding the route of the Barrier which will steal tens of thousands of
dunam of land from the villages Northwest of Jerusalem and in the 
Modiin
area.  On Thursday there will be a demonstration (see below).  Also see
below for a neigbor's tour for residents of Armon HaNatziv and the
beginning of organizing in the Modiin area.  The time to act is NOW - 
not
tomorrow.

A week ago the court ordered stop work orders were cancelled in a 
number
of points and the bulldozers resumed the uprooting of olive trees (many 
of
them were not uprooted in a way so that they could be replanted, as is 
the
custom.)  Nevertheless, the Bagatz continues to press the army to 
change
the route of the Barrier wherever possible, Jewish neighbors continue to
request that the route be changed  and Palestinians and some Israelis
continue to stand in front of bulldozers.  There is also a home in Bido
which is still standing only because 6 Palestinians barricaded 
themselves
inside.  Its fate will also be decided on Friday.  The IDF responded to
the claim of the retired generals of the Council for Peace and Security
that a different route would also be better in terms of defense by saying
that Israeli must hold on to points from which there could be shooting at
Jewish neighbor hoods.  In other words, the concept of the Barrier is
being drastically changed.(The army is considering changes in some 
areas.)
 IN the same way that were there to be a case where there was truly no 
way
to save lives other than take land I would have to swallow hard and say
that human life takes precedence, if the choice is between taking land 
and
putting up walls that destroy the views from the Jewish neigborhoods, the
land must take precedence.

When the children of Israel were standing at the shores of the sea and
wailing as the army of Pharaoh approached, God said to Moses, " Why are
you crying to me?  Speak to the children of Israel that they should go
forward!" The Midrash adds that God did not part the waters of the sea
until the Children of Israel had entered the water up to their necks -
some
say noses. With  the seriousness with which the High Court is taking the
route of the barrier, the current surge in public concern, the 
involvement
of the Council for Peace and Security, etc., we have a window of
opportunity. We can wail about the way in which the government is 
creating
a conflict between our right to self defense and the Palestinian's rights
to medical care, their land, etc - or we can act now so as to know that 
we
did whatever we could:

1.  There will be a demonstration in Bido on Thursday joined by a number
of organizations.  We will leave from Liberty Bell Garden's parking lot 
at
11:30 (Israeli time) and will notify about other organizations,
transportation from the Tel Aviv area, etc.  Please let us know if you
wish to participate.  We know that some of you do not want to be involved
in standing in front of bulldozers.  The demonstration will be arranged so
that you can participate and express solidarity without standing in front
of bulldozers, et/.  Itis terribly important that we prove that there is a
sizable Israeli public, including those who support the idea of a barrier
and are from the center of the political map, who are opposed to the
current route of the Barrier.

2.  Please attend the hearing at 10:00 on Friday

3.  We have tentatively set for next Sunday a neighbor's tour for
residents of Armon HaNatziv who are willing to help their neighbors from
Sheikh Said.

4.  Organizing of neighbors in the Modiin area has begun, particularly
relating to Beit Sira (See #4 in Hebrew above.)  For more info, call Nava
- 068-855595, nafa.sfp at nswas.com, Ayelet - 02-9922421 or Dorit -

5.  We are still looking for people in the area of Rosh HaAyin

Khag Sameakh,
Arik

         Daniel Tsal refuses to enlist to an army of occupation
             We'll join him in the Induction Center on 13/4

Next Tuesday, April 14th, at 7:30, Daniel Tsal will arrive at the IDF 
Induction Center and will declare his refusal to join an occupying and 
oppressing army. 
Daniel informed the Minister of Defense about his planned refusal three 
months ago, and his request to be brought to the IDF conscience 
committee was rejected. 
Last January, the five COs who refused to enlist to an army of 
occupation were sentenced to one year imprisonment. Daniel is the 
first refuser who follows in their footsteps, apart from Laura Milo, whose 
case will be heard in the HCJ on the very same day 9am.

         We'll join Daneil at the gates of the Induction Center                   
     and will shout out loud - 
           Down with the occupation and the oppression! Free                  
     the consciencious objectors!

(Car owners are requested to stop at the Arlozorov terminal at 7:00 to 
pick up potential riders)

Excerpts from Daniel Tsal's letter to the defense minister:
"The principles of the "only democracy in the Middle East" have 
become void of meaning as a result of the trampling of the rights of 
about three million people, and more indirectly, of the ongoing 
destruction of the foundations on which the State of Israel is supposed 
to be based...
In such historical times, a sane individual must rise up against the 
system that makes the ongoing oppression possible. I have a moral 
obligation – not a choice but an obligation - to refuse to participate in 
the occupation and to struggle against the institutions that cancel such 
basic human rights. Any sane person, who has not yet been wholly 
overcome by fear and racism, must by dint of his basic humanity 
refuse to be part of an occupying and oppressive system such as the 
IDF has become."
