Yesh Gvul petition to be published soon by Yesh Gvul 4:08pm Fri Feb 1 '02 phone: 026250271 peretz@yesh-gvul.org Due to the publication of the “Officers’ Letter” and its condemnation by the IDF General Staff and various politicians, who are trying to portray the refusal to serve in the Occupied Territories as an immoral and marginal act, we, of "Yesh Gvul", intend to publish a petition in Haaretz in the next few days. print article Following are two versions of the petition, one for soldiers and the other for supporters of selective refusal. We ask those who support the petition to sign and return it to: peretz@yesh-gvul.org Despite a semblance of Palestinian autonomy - on just one fifth of the occupied territories - the occupation goes on and on. Over thirty years of occupation and repression have not halted the Palestinian campaign for national independence. The war conducted by the Israeli government for the lands of Ariel and Bethel, in defence of the pogromists of Itamar and Beit Hadassah, for the continued occupation of Netzarim and Kiryat Arba, for the continued hold on Rachel's Tomb - all this is not our war. (for soldiers) We the undersigned, IDF soldiers, declare that we will have no part in the continued repression of the Palestinian people in the occupied territories, and we will take no part in policing assignments or guarding the settlements serving those ends. (for civilians) We the undersigned, are civilians who, support those soldiers whom declare that they will have no part in the continued repression of the Palestinian people in the occupied territories, and who will take no part in policing assignments or guarding the settlements serving those ends.
