Not In My NameThursday 11 Apr 2002


author: Leviah Adinah



My heart weeps for the Palestinian people caught in this horrific situation, between two power driven, vengeful groups. As a Jew, as well as as a human being, my heart hurts - where is the sense of justice, of being on the side of the underdog, of those in need.

The IDF and Sharon and those who support him do not speak or act in my name.

I urge ALL Jews worldwide to speak loud and clear these words, NOT IN MY NAME, and to support justice and peace for all who are in the Holy Land, regardless of religion or race. Let the voices of sanity stand strong, nonviolently, bravely, and together, and end this horror. Thank you to those of you, esp. in Israel, such as B'Tselem, who are already doing this. The time is now to be heard before it is too late.
