To Prime Minister Of Israel Mr. ARIEL SHARON
Copy: Knesset Speaker Mr. REUVEN RIVLIN

Honorable Mr. Sharon:
We object to dismantling of any Jewish settlements.
Such action will harm the strategic interests of Israel and will cause serious moral damage to its population and to the Jews of Diaspora. This is a humiliation for Israel and Jewish people.This is a blow to the dream of many generations of our people to live in Eretz Yisrael. This violates the Torah commandments regarding settlement of the Land of Israel and the human rights of the religious population of Israel.
It is illegal Arab settlements that must be dismantled, not Jewish settlements in the biblical land of Judea, Samaria, and Gaza.
We urge you to stop pursuing the idea of dismantling Jewish settlements in Eretz Yisrael and instead to encourage and support their establishment and expansion. Eretz Yisrael is the land of Jews of Israel and Jews of Diaspora. It belongs to our ancestors and to the future generations of our people.
As you have written in your article published in “Jerusalem Post” on September 29, 1995:
“Governments come and go, and so do generations: it is our great privilege to hold these sacred possessions in trust for future generations. We have no right to transfer them to alien hands.”
We express our solidarity with 200 former Soviet refuseniks and prisoners of Zion who demonstrated in support of Noam Federman on December 21, 2003 in Jerusalem and with the mass demonstration that took place in Tel-Aviv on January 11, 2004.
