I thought that it was just here, concerning our Disengagement victims, still homeless and jobless since August. Nobody seems to care, and the media considers the issue, old and stale. Politicians are too busy running after votes to consider their needs.
The hundreds of thousands in the southern United States, uprooted by Katrina, are also complaining of being ignored. There have been other storms since, and the list is ever-growing of people needing help. At least the New York Times wrote about their situation.
Who really cares about the Israelis, those who once lived in Gush Katif and the Northern Shomron? In the teachers' room, fellow-teacher mentioned that his married child and family are living with them now. Their "once home and community" no longer exist. The social ties that once made life so idyllic have already disintegrated into fading memories. So quickly. Instead of more money they don't have being billed from the non-existent "compensation," the young family is staying with parents.
Then we all discussed the feasibility of proving our decades long residence, since Arik Sharon and also Bibi Netanyahu has promised to make us refugees, too, G-d forbid.
