Dear Supporters of Ofer Cassif,
Thank you SO much for your support for this petition via Change.org, where we demanded of centrist Knesset leaders, Benny Gantz and Yair Lapid, that they ask their Knesset fractions to vote "No" on the expulsion of leftist peace and justice advocate, Ofer Cassif on the Knesset vote this Monday, February 19th!! I have delivered the full petition plus 345 signatures from supporters like you around the world via email to Gantz's and Lapid's Knesset email addresses, cc'ing Ofer.
When I receive updates on the status of that vote and also subsequent actions related to Ofer's position in the Knesset, I will let you know. Let's hope that Gantz, Lapid and other centrist factions in the Knesset see fit to avoid having the Supreme Court step in, further endangering that status of that institution from a fascist coup from the far-right Zionist factions.
Furthermore, let's stay in touch about supporting Ofer and other individuals and political movements within Israel that are committed to full equality and historical justice for Palestinians in both Israel and the currently occupied territories, as well as safety and security for Israeli Jews in whatever political configuration will bring peace, security and prosperity for all.
Michael Hoexter, Ph.D.
