I received a letter from concerned Histadrut teachers calling all their fellow members from k-12 to not teach on the 2/12/07 by leave of absence due to personal reasons. They hope this will show solidarity with the Irgun's fight and help end this strike faster. Anyone interested in reading the letter (in Hebrew) let me know of the list. Finally someone out of the Irgun is waking up and taking action. I hope it will work and make a lot of noise in the media. Nehama
