| 'Zo Artzeinu!' (This is our land!) was the name chosen by an
unknown grassroots movement which broke like a storm upon the Israeli
scene in the summer of 1995. Two young men, Moshe Feiglin and Shmuel Sackett,
hitherto unknown to the public, and without any backing or budget, succeeded
within a few weeks in bringing about the participation of masses of protesters
throughout the country in a non-violent campaign of civil disobedience.
The young Israeli democracy had never before witnessed such a phenomenon.
No less than 100,000 non-violent demonstrators - about 3% of the adult
Jewish population of Israel -- squatted at 80 central intersections throughout
the land, effectively blocking all domestic traffic. · What was the secret
of their success? · How did the movement come into being and how did it function? · Was this conflict between Left and Right a typical, recurring clash - or was this much more meaningful phenomenon? · How did Israeli democracy cope with these developments? In this absorbing book, Moshe Feiglin, founder of the movement, breathtakingly recounts the remarkable story of 'Zo Artzenu'. While so doing, he brilliantly presents his personal outlook regarding the Israeli experience. This impressive story leaves the reader with the unavoidable question: When will these basic principles once again find expression and lead the Jewish nation towards its destiny? |
