Edelstein moving to Gaza

Yuli Edelstein is to become the first Likud MK to move to Gush Katif in advance of disengagement.

Edelstein said he believed that he and his family would be staying for a long time in Moshav Gadid.

"Wide public support is needed to forcibly evacuate settlers, but support is now declining," he said.

Edelstein is the fourth MK to move to the settlements that are scheduled for evacuation.

He joins Effi Eitam (National Religious Zionist Renewal Party) and Uri Ariel (National Union) in Gush Katif; Arye Eldad has moved to Sa-Nur in northern Samaria.

Sa-Nur gears up for last stand as 13 more families move in

Orit Or, the mother of two toddlers, tried in vain to sweep the columns of ants out of the tent she moved into Tuesday in the soon-to-be evacuated northern Samarian settlement of Sa-Nur.

Outside, more than 2,500 opponents of the plan to evacuate some 9,000 settlers from the Gaza Strip and the West Bank celebrated the Ors' arrival and that of 12 other families on Tuesday evening.
But with two months until disengagement begins, settler leaders here also called the event "a dry run for evacuation day."

When the day came, they said, thousands of loyal supporters would march down from the hills and swarm into this lonely outpost to stave off the IDF.

As opposed to the other three settlements in northern Samaria, the IDF expects Sa-Nur to put up significant resistance.

"This is clearly not luxury," said Or, 25, of her new home, "but even the ants don't bother me... when you believe in something and then act on it, it feels really good."

Or said she and her family felt a calling to leave their homes and "fortify" Sa-Nur, both physically and spiritually. Over the past month, 18 couples, most of them in their 20s packed their belongings into one of three tent neighborhoods set up around the old British fort that serves as the hub of this settlement.

Most of them moved into stifling tents like the Ors', furnished spartanly with perhaps a few cots, a plastic table and an odd assortment of chairs. Bitterly, Or noted that the IDF no longer permitted the transfer of trailer homes into the West Bank.

Settlement spokesman Yossi Dagan is fond of calling Sa-Nur, now home to about 230 people, "Israel's fastest-growing community." The list of newly welcomed notables includes MK Arye Eldad of the National Union Party.

An area near the entrance to the settlement has been cleared for a "sleeping bag city," which could accommodate about 400 youths during the summer, said Dagan.

Originally founded as an artists' colony in 1982, Sa-Nur was abandoned at the start of the recent violence and then repopulated by people like Dagan and settlers from Kiryat Arba in the spring of 2003.

Or took a break from housework to sit on her terrace, part of the concrete slab upon which her army-issue tent is pitched, to listen to rabbis and settlement leaders herald the defeat of Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's disengagement plan.

After an initial prayer for the cancellation of the plan, Rabbi Eliezer Waldman, the head of the Kiryat Arba yeshiva, called the settlement endeavor "a holy act." He added, "Woe unto him who dares interfere with the sanctification of God," in reference to Sharon. Waldman, who relocated his yeshiva to Sa-Nur, warned that a return to the era when Jews did not rule the "Land of Israel" would leave the land "cursed."

As he spoke, anti-disengagement activists strolled among stands offering a catalogue of right-wing books, pamphlets and wallet-sized "how to" guides for enduring police interrogations after street protests. The celebrants in their orange "Gush Katif" T-shirts also unveiled a new poster depicting Sharon with a Rambo-style orange headband and a caption reading: "Orange forever."

But not only these brightly dressed masses will arrive on evacuation day, said one of the event's organizers, Sa-Nur resident Miriam Adler. "If we get just 10,000 in the hour of need, we'll be able to stop the evacuation," she said.

Anti-settler group creates West Bank Internet game

An anti-settler group has launched an Internet game called "Wild West Bank," to demonstrate the difficulty of evacuating Jewish settlers from the territory Palestinians want for a future state, the group said in a statement Tuesday...

The coalition plans a series of films, a rock concert and tours of settlements and Palestinian areas this weekend, to persuade Israelis to dismantle all settlements set up in the West Bank and Gaza, territories Israel captured in the 1967 Mideast war.

Disengagement Arrestees to Reveal Their Identities

Juvenile girls who have been incarcerated for a month as a result of their anti-disengagement activities, will reveal their identities while accompanied by their parents on a Channel 10 TV program, tonight at 21:45.

The Petah Tikvah Juvenile Court has set house arrest as a condition for their release, taking a sterner approach than other courts which only sought to distance the girls from anti-disengagement protests. This condition set by the court resulted in the girls refusing to identify themselves to prison officials and therefore, have remained behind bars in the disengagement wing of Massiyahu Prison.

Two of the arrestees have decided to accept the terms of the release and have signed while the remaining five are opting to remain behind bars.
