Jailed Teens Forced to Choose Between Jail and Kibbutz

You have to read the entire article to really appreciate what is going on here in Israel. The Kafka like aberation described in this simple court procedure can be amplified hundreds of times throughout the country, the media and the day-to-day interaction with hostile police ....

Belogorodsky described the accusations against his daughter: "Chaya decided to lend moral support to her friends who went to protest Ariel Sharon's plan to expel Jews. What follows is a direct quote from the official indictment filed against Chaya. She is accused of standing on a sidewalk while her friends proceeded to block traffic. After her friends were arrested, a policewoman asked Chaya to leave the area. Chaya refused, saying that she wasn't doing anything illegal, that she had every right to stand on 'every inch of the Land of Israel.' The policewoman, unimpressed, warned Chaya that if she didn't leave immediately she will be arrested. To which Chaya replied: 'So, shut up and arrest me then.' That's it. This is the case that the State of Israel has against Chaya."Please read the entire article and write Mr. Belogorodsky (address at end of article) to help him feel that he and his daughter are not in this struggle alone!
