Against Disengagement of Gush Katif, Israel

On August 15, 2005, the Israeli government, under pressure from the United States, is planning on handing over the city of Gush Katif, Israel, located in the Gaza Strip to the Palestinian Authority.

9,000 jewish people currently live in this city and are being expelled from their homes. The land is being taken away from the jewish residents with absolutely nothing in return other than the Palestinian Authority's threat that terrorist attacks will continue until Israel concedes land. There has been very little media coverage in the US. The little coverage the media has given has been inaccurate. As I write, the Palestinians are stockpiling supplies such as food, weapons and the like. The last time the Palestinians stockpiled supplies in this fashion was before they attacked Israel during the Oslo War. They are obviously preparing for some kind of initiative.

The Palestinians believe that they are gaining Gush Katif in response to their "martyrdom". Gush Katif is strategically located and once the PA has control over it, Israel will become many times more vulnerable to terrorist attacks.

Please speak out against the atrocities taking place in G-d's holy land. By signing this petition, you are taking a stand against terror and against terrorist threats and ultimatums.
