ГУЛаг Палестины

do with the reality. We did everything to defend ourselves in Israel, and G. as a journalist and the human righta activist did everything that was possible to

help us.He presented tenth of receipts of his complains to various ministries and organizations including the Ministry of Police, the Ministry of internal affairs

and police, which were unanswered, to the immigration committee. The sad truth is that the committee just ignores everything. And recognize only the

ungrounded Israel's declarations. And the immigration officer - a person who sends faxes to Israeli embassy, obtains documents there;in other words who's

in tight connection with Israelis - is the only person who has a decidable voice in the refugees from Israel cases... Isn't that sad?!

We can not go back to Israel under no condition, because

1) my husband and my son may be arrested by the militaries and imprisoned. I expressed my grounded fears about that during the hearings and I can widen

them now. 2) How can we go back to Israel if the immigration officer informed the Israelis about our refugee claim? In Israel where the ideology and the

patriotic education play a very important role we will be considered as "traitors" and will be persecuted for that, too. 3) Persecutions against us in Israel were

so strong that if we would be send back to Israel we will die. 4) After receiving so called "21-st military profile" my son has no future in Israel: Because in

Israel people who are given that "profile" can not study, and nobody will employ my son with such a "profile". 5) After all the persecutions we faced in Israel

we feel fear - and we are afraid to go back; our fear, our psychological tremor towards Israel are so strong that there is impossible for us to live in Israel any

more. In the name of God, in the name of Justice - HELP US!!!

CONCLUSIONS: our 2 immigration hearings (as well as hearings in G. case) have nothing in common with any legal procedure. They rather remine of an

incuisition court or a secret political tribunal. This tribunal was arranged to punish us for flieding Israel and G.
– for his ideological views - not to decide

whether or not our (ours and G. family's) claim for a refugee status is justified. It was used for the political purposes: To "show" how just any information

about human rights violations in Israel which not concerns Arabs can be calmed down - and to express a huge pro-Israel propaganda. They made clear that

they treat our escape from Israel as a mutiny and will never admit the very fact that we are in Canada, in Quebec, not in Israel. Their words, their behavior

everything - was meant to show us that we could only deserve to be treated according to the Canadian rules after getting a refugee status. Before that we

don't deserve to be treated by Canadian rules. That's why we were treated according to the rules and norms of Israel!!! It hard to find a more violative ritual

of humiliations over the juridical norms then that... It is absolutely clear for the judges - as well as for ourselves - that we were severely persecuted in Israel,

that all members of our family were severely abused and that the definite casualties were inflicted to our health, including our son. It is also absolutely clear to

the judges that the deportation back to Israel is a death penalty for all members of our family. The tricky thing is that the immigration board expressed almost

no doubt about persecutions we survived in Israel or even recognized the harshness of these persecutions. But the point is that they claim ... we are guilty in

the persecutions ourselves - and therefore they don't worry about our souls and our lives... So, this is not even a tribunal, but a brutal act of a vengeance.

sp;* The court's negative decision (resume) was made and expressed in an inappropriate manner without any clear connection to our real case.

The decision was clearly made by the immigration officer, not by the judges. She is an Israeli patriot and she hates the Russian-speaking people. Everything

what is expressed in the decision document is basicly a lie. The text of that document is politically motivated and juridically illegal. This is just the next stage of

injustice.

AN ADJUSTMENT

We came to Israel in 1990; as many other people we had a hope for a better life. As the most of Russian-speaking people we were "welcomed" by a malicious anger, the state

unti-Russian propaganda and the most severe discrimination. Our son was 15 when we came to Israel. Each of us (including our son) was assaulted, abused, beaten,

discriminated against. The ignorance of what is going on in Israel with the Russian-speaking people can not make what our friends and we suffered from in Israel unreal.
