		<description>&quot;..we hoped might inject a morally diseased Israel with a modicum of honest self-examination as a first step toward becoming a healthy society addicted to something other than a Manifest Destiny underwritten by various harmful fantasies, including portions of the Bible itself.&quot;

This really blew me away.</description>

		<description>I just stumbled across an article referencing Peace Now and Americans for Peace Now and the attack(s) you have described, Richard. The piece begins: 

&quot;Washington, DC - Israel&#039;s Peace Now movement and Americans for Peace Now strongly condemn the vicious attacks on the New Israel Fund, on its Chair, Naomi Chazan, and on the NIF&#039;s grantee organizations who are quoted in the United Nations&#039; fact-finding mission&#039;s report on last year&#039;s Gaza war.&quot; 

A link to the entire article is as follows: http://peacenow.org/entries/apn_and_peace_now_condemn_attacks_on_nif.</description>

		<description>Yes, you&#039;re right.  In the rush of writing blog posts yesterday, I got the info in the body of the post right &amp; the blog title was not corrected.  Apologies, now it is.  My mistake.</description>

		<description>Apparently, Mark, you&#039;ve missed the point, the idea being that an evil and treacherous NIF has imprisoned three good loyal souls who fight for a Greater Israel. How dare it!, etc.

Shifting gears a bit, I&#039;d like to say that my wife and I for years contributed to NIF along with Peace Now, The Abraham Fund, Brit Tzdek v&#039;Shalom, and such organizations that we hoped might inject a morally diseased Israel with a modicum of honest self-examination as a first step toward becoming a healthy society addicted to something other than a Manifest Destiny underwritten by various harmful fantasies, including portions of the Bible itself. We became discouraged with each day&#039;s news, these well-meaning organizations apparently buried by right-wing militarists, apartheidists and theocratic, land-grabbing reactionaries. We stayed with Americans for Peace Now, but dropped several others. Now, all of a sudden, does the New Israel Fund seems to rise up from the ashes, deeply disturbing those we are very happy to disturb. Thanks, Richard, for all the information. We&#039;ll resume our contributions, sadly modest though they must be, to NIF.</description>

		<description>Actually - those portrayed in the picture in prison uniforms are GoI officials, not NIF leaders.</description>
