A small woman, a widow, told us that soldiers had entered her home and turned it upside down during four hours. They did not tell her what they were looking for but took 15,000 shekel which she had been saving to help her son. They claimed that the money was to be used to buy weapons. Where they came to such interesting information your guess is as good as mine. They gave her a paper documenting this claim. We  gave her the number of Yesh Din and of Amanda. We also told journalist of Harets Hagar Shezaf about this incident and hope to speak to her in a few days as to the outcome.

Two men arrived to say that they had been stopped and their car confiscated. The car had all the necessary documentation and again they did not know the reason. They went to the police station.  Why? Because, as in the previous case, THEY can.
