The truth about Judea-Samaria

Judea and Samaria is home to more than 430,000 citizens of Israel. They are the vanguard of Israel's security and sovereignty as a Jewish State. Yet this significant area of Israel receives little support from many organizations in the United States because this is considered "disputed territories." However, there is an organization, the One Israel Fund, that is dedicated to supporting the welfare and safety of those who live in Judea, Samaria, the Jordan Valley and the reemerging communities of Gaza evacuees.

Learn more about Judea and Samaria as the Zionistas proudly present "Judea and Samaria: The Truth You Won't Learn From the Media" on Monday, Feb. 5 at 7 p.m. The meeting will be held in a private home.

The guest speaker, Natalie Sopinsky, Community Development director of the One Israel Fund, is a native of Wilmington, Del., and made aliyah to Israel 12 years ago. She will talk about what life is like in the disputed territories-about the struggles of those living in this extremely dangerous part of the world.

She will also share about her visit with Yael Shevach, the widow of Rabbi Raziel Shevach, who was murdered a few weeks ago while driving in Samaria. The Shevach family lives in Havat Gilad, not far from where Sopinsky lives. Why would she choose to live in Judea-Samaria? What support do the Jews living there need from us? How can we help?

She will also discuss the important projects and activities of the One Israel Fund.

This event is free. For more information and the location of the meeting, please contact Sandi Solomon at sansolomon@hotmail.com.
