Urgent - Time for Action!

The demonstration due to take place this Monday, on Rechov Herzog, against violence in the neighborhoods, has been postponed due to technical reasons. We will notify you as soon as possible of a new date.

Two days ago a woman was attacked on a bus; I was told that Friday, before Shabbat, some fanatics put rocks on Rechov Herzog, which could be very dangerous; yesterday they sprayed graffiti around the area of Orot Neria on Rechov Herzog (signs and fences).

After speaking this morning to the Chief of Police, Jerusalem region (under whose jurisdiction we are) I realized that we cannot rely on them and we have to start acting.

On Monday evening at 18.00 (29.10.07), we will, be"h hold a mass demonstration on Rechov Herzog in front of the buildings who think that it's their shecunah, telling them "Ad Ka'an" "עד כאן".

If you want to live peacefully with us, good. This is our city, our neighborhoods and we plan to stay here and we won't let you ruin it!

I hope that all good people in Beit Shemesh, especially Scheinfeld, Aviv and Rama Aleph residents will be there on mass.

We are planning a meeting of activists on Friday morning - if you would like to join or help, please e-mail or call me (see below).

We have waited long enough (maybe too > long) and now is the time to take action.

All the best,
Shalom Lerner Deputy Mayor Beit Shemesh 9909817/8 050 5256716 shalomlr@bshemesh.co.il
