Shdema Activists Distributed Dozens of Flyers in Arabic, with Verses from the Quran, in the Illegal Compound that the Arabs Built at Shdema
After anarchists spray painted the Shdema camp last week with verses from the Bible about “love and fraternity,” yesterday, Friday, the eve of the Sabbath of parshat Bo, January 22, 2010, the activists for a Jewish Shdema and Women in Green prepared flyers in Arabic with verses from the Quran that the Land of Israel belongs to the people of Israel. The verses were taken from Sura 5, verses 20-21, Sura 7, verses 136-137, and Sura 17, verses 103-104.
Following the fascinating lecture by Dr. Haggai Ben-Artzi on the meaning of Tu bi-Shvat in the literature of the Kabbalists, the activists went down to the illegal compound that the Arabs built at Shdema with the assistance of USAID funds and distributed the flyers. In addition, flyers were hung on the concrete barriers at the entrance to the road leading to Shdema.
At the same time, the Shdema Youth continued to clean up the damage caused last week by the anarchists, and they repainted all the walls.
Next week: a special event in honor of Tu bi-Shvat – Har Homa with Shdema!
On Friday, January 29, 2010, the eve of Tu bi-Shvat, there will be a solidarity journey from Har Homa to Shdema, with plantings at Shdema.
