A sad story from the weekend Ha’aretz.
“Anna…immigrated from the Caucasus 13 years ago. A month ago, she joined Vicki Knafo on her march to Jerusalem and stayed there for two days. Anna has five children and a husband who was injured in a work accident just after they arrived, when they didn’t know what their rights were. Now she has a son who did his military service in Hebron and Jenin, and another son serving in a combat unit in the territories. That morning, her older son asked to come in an hour late to his factory job so he could see his soldier brother, who had not been home for a month. They said okay, but half an hour later, they phoned up and told him he was fired.”
