Yekutiel Ben Yaakov and Nerya Ofan received administrative orders
from the Military government that effectively exiles them from their
homes and restricts them from enetering anywhere in Judea and Samaria
until the end of the year.
Below please find the official response dispatched by Yekutiel ben
Yaakov (Mike Guzofsky):
Ben Yakov/Guzofsky's official response to the edict to exile him from
his home in Tapuach: (Oct. 14th Ben Yakov was given an administrative
order signed by General Shamni ? Chief officer of the IDF over Judea
and Samaria, which forbids him from entering anywhere in Judea and
Samaria, excluding Maaleh Adumim for the next three months. Ben Yakov
resides in Tapuach, works in the Shomron and heads a yeshiva, ulpan
and canine defense program in the area, he is also a candidate for
the Tapuach Council in the elections to be held next month).
Below find his official response to the order:
I wear with this edict as a badge of honor, in spite of the fact that
I can think of no good deeds that I have done to merit being exiled
from my home.
The authorities are mistaken if they think that this in some way will
stop us from expanding Tapuach, developing our Yeshiva and new
hilltop, stop us from raising security dogs for the defense of Jewish
towns in Judea and Samaria or if they think that this edict will deter
us from speaking out against the upcoming conference where Olmert
intends to pledge his surrender of most of Judea and Samaria and
parts of Jerusalem.
It is outrageous to exile a candidate from the region where he is
running for office and such action represents interference in the
democratic political process. The desperate actions of the fools who
signed this order will only backfire. The residents of Tapuach and of
all Yesha will prove that they will not walk like sheep into the
"Auschwitz borders" Olmert is carving out of Israel.
PLEASE SEND A FAX TO GENERAL SHAMNI TO PROTEST THIS INJUSTICE AND
DEMAND THAT he cancel the adminsitrative orders against Yekutiel Ben
Yaakov and Nerya Offan.

damaging.
