Last night at a private residence in Los Angeles, people gathered to hear Ehud Zinar speak about the forced withdrawal, from Gaza, of the population of his town, Netzarim. Ehud is the Assistant to the Chairman of the Council of Netzarim, which is working to prepare a new life for that population. What is amazing is that the population is not bitter, not angry; it is hopeful and is looking to do good for itself and for Israel, even though the withdrawal was "a tragedy."
The people of Netzarim have made a brilliant and surprising decision: they will stay together geographically. They will find a place to which they can all move to maintain their community, and to continue the work at which the different individuals in it are skilled. They are seeking undeveloped land in Israel on which to live.
