- On Dec. 6, I received a phone call from the newspaper
Kol Ha'ir asking my reaction to Itamar Ben Gvir's suit against me for 140,000
shekels. It was the first I had heard of it, so I stumbled through my reaction.
I was better prepared for the next reporter who called, from Yerushalayim
Magazine.
-
- I have claimed that Ben Gvir's actions serve the purposes
of the state and its security apparatus far better than that of legitimate
anti-government protesters. In fact, Ben Gvir and his ilk have destroyed
legitimate protest in a number of ways, including:
-
- - Through their atrocious actions, the public associates
any anti-government protest with irrational radicalism.
-
- - In fact, to the broad public, one who protests on behalf
of any anti-government cause is an advocate of murder and the transfer
of Arabs elsewhere.
-
- - By leading unknowing protesters in harmless directions,
Ben Gvir and his ilk defuse political debate and send innocent citizens
to prison.
-
- When news of the suit reached the public, I was contacted
and told, "Yediot Ahronot had an article, I believe by Nahum Barnea,
about Ben Gvir's suits. He sues everyone and suspiciously, always wins."
-
- I claimed that Ben Gvir's actions did more to stop the
defense of Gush Katif than anything else, excepting the cooperation of
the Yesha Council with the authorities. I was not the only one to make
the claim and he sued them as well.
-
- First he sued the newspaper Hatsofe. I will include its
comment in Hebrew, which many will see in gibberish.

- The comment in Hebrew reads: "Itamar Ben Gvir has
sued Hatsofe for implying that he is a Shabak agent. The suit has been
widely reported by the media but we have yet to receive the suit. It must
be that the Shabak lawyers have a long list of suits before ours."
-
- Then, Ben Gvir sued a Knesset member, Arie Eldad:

-
- MK Eldad: Itamar Ben-Gvir is a Gov't Agent Wednesday
-
- June 29, 2005 / 22 Sivan 5765
-
- (IsraelNN.com) -- Knesset Member Aryeh Eldad (National
Union) said this evening that right-wing activist Itamar Ben-Gvir, known
for his affiliations with Kahanist organizations, is actually an agent
of the General Security Services (GSS). Eldad claims that Ben-Gvir was
sent by the GSS to the Maoz HaYam hotel area in order to stir up the emotions
and cause provocations.
-
- MK Eldad made the charges on Channel Two's Mishal Cham
interview program. Ben-Gvir has been involved in many right-wing demonstrations
and activist operations.
-
- The reporter from Yerushalayim informed me that Eldad
had caved in and would be issuing an apology to Ben Gvir. It wasn't worth
his time and money to spend thousands of dollars on lawyers and risk losing
$40,000. Where Ben Gvir, supposedly a student, finds the money for his
serial suits goes unanswered. But the method seems to be foolproof.
-
- On the other hand, with a great deal less funding available,
I intend to fight the suit and in doing so to expose, not just Ben Gvir,
but the phenomenon of provocateurs wrecking any pretense of free speech
and expression in the country.
-
- And I may not be alone for once. In the wake of the publicity,
I received a phone call. "Someone close to me faces ten years in prison
over a riot Ben Gvir was responsible for. I'm trying to get him to testify
for you."
-
- May there be many more.
-
- The reporter from Yerushalayim, Amir Shouan, told me
that Ben Gvir claimed I invented the suspicion that he was a Shabak provocateur.
I told him that was a lie and asked for two hours to prove it.
-
- It was like shooting fish in a bowl.
-
- Let us begin in Gush Katif. A genuinely courageous protest
leader, Nadia Matar, saw the damage Ben Gvir was doing to her cause:
-
- http://israelrules.blogspot.com/2005/07/propoganda-gone-bad.html
-
- The Gush Katif hotel eviction. Did you know that Nadia
Matar requested from the police to remove Itamar Ben Gvir and his hooligans
from the hotel a week before the eviction? Guess what? The police IGNORED
her. Why? They WANTED a big political story of the "crazies"
in the hotel. I KNOW most of the people evicted from the hotel. They all
said -- a group of Itamar Ben Gvir hooligans came out of nowhere, refused
to leave, and caused the whole "uproar" of what happened. Please
note: less than 24 hours before the raid and eviction, the police arrive
and escort Ben-Gvir out of Gush Katif. Why? He works for them...to rile
up his hooligans...and make people like you think (and a lot of the Israeli
public) that the hotel was full of fanatical crazies.
-
- Now, let us return to 1994:

-
- On 1 August 1994, three Kach activists who had organized
the paramilitary camp in Kiryat Arba a week earlier were summoned for questioning
by the police. The group's spokesman, Itamar Ben-Gvir, one of the persons
who were summoned, indicated from a public telephone that they were not
going to cooperate with the police. (Ha'aretz, 29, 31 July 1994; Jerusalem
Post, 31 July, 1 August 1994)
-
- On Nov. 3 of this year, I appeared on the London and
Kirschenbaum television program on Channel 10. In 1994, Kirschenbaum was
Chairman of the Israel Broadcasting Authority. The paramilitary camp organized
by Ben Gvir was nothing but a show for an IBA news reporter, Eitan Oren.
Ben Gvir staged the camp for Oren, who the late Adir Zik proved was working
for the Shabak. On the London and Kirschenbaum program, the latter admitted
the report of the camp was staged for what could only be, the Shabak.
-
- The tape should make interesting viewing in court. At
a young age, Ben Gvir was already cooperating with a Shabak sting operation.
-
- And I have another tape from December of the following
year, as well as the police written records of it. After the Rabin murder,
Yigal Amir was interrogated by the police:
-
- Amir: I got to the demonstration and saw a friend from
Likud youth on a bus. He told me that Itamar Ben Gvir wanted to kill Rabin
tonight. He said Avishai Raviv gave him a gun with blanks in it. "You
know about this, of course," he said. "I told the police about
it." I laughed. In recollection I can't figure this one out. But there
were a lot of strange things...
-
- Previous to the Rabin murder, Ben Gvir engaged in some
nasty acts. He and his gang jumped on the car of cabinet minister, Binyamin
"Fuad" Ben Eliezer while he was in it. Though he threatened the
life of a cabinet minister, Ben Gvir was not jailed.
-
- And that gave him time to personally place a note on
Rabin's car which read, "We got to his car,. next time we'll get to
Rabin."
-
- So, for threatening the murder of the prime minister,
is Ben Gvir imprisoned like the rest of us would be? Of course not. That
gives him the time to threaten to kill a singer, Sinead O'Conner:

- Singer Slams Threats Of Right-Winger
-
- By Naomi Segal Jewish Telegraphic Agency
-
- JERUSALEM -- Israeli police plan to question an extreme
right-wing activist on suspicion of threatening Irish pop star Sinead O'Connor.
-
- O'Connor canceled her scheduled appearance at a concert
Saturday night in Jerusalem's Sultan's Pool after receiving death threats.
The concert, billed as being for "Two Capitals, Two States,"
was sponsored by Israeli and Palestinian women's groups.
-
- No one claimed responsibility for the threats. However,
ultra-nationalist Itamar Ben-Gvir said in an Israel Radio interview that
he "understood" those who sent the threats.
-
- While not claiming responsibility for the threats, Ben-Gvir
said that he and his supporters had succeeded in getting the concert called
off.
-
- So how do you like that? Ben Gvir admits that he and
his cohorts "succeeded" in getting the concert cancelled, which
means he admitted to threatening the life of Sinead O'Connor. As far as
anyone knows, murder threats are a serious felony in Israel, but not for
Ben Gvir. One can only surmise that Ben Gvir made the threats for some
organization powerful enough to keep him out of prison.
-
- Ben Gvir's activities are so obvious, that even his most
likely allies have issued the claim that he is a Shabak agent:

-
- Article has a statement from Kahane Chai ("Kahane
Lives"), and a quote from the activist Itamar Ben-Gavi.
-
- First, it's Ben Gvir... And I thik it's clear to anyone
who follows Israeli press that he is a Shabak agent provocateur or just
plain idiot. Possibly both. He has broken the law so many times, has a
new trial each month, and every time he is let out on a technicality...
I know several Americans who moved in JDL and later Kach circles and they
are all 100% sure that he is a Shabak provocateur.

( 27/2/2005 19:47) From the settler's site: Itamar Ben Gvir, I'm afraid
you are a Shabak agent."
-
- But these sites barely scratch the accusations as compared
to other popular Israeli news sites:
-
- http://www.bsh.co.il/forums/ShowMessage2.asp?id=58066
&Fnumber=33&SunId=0 http://rotter.net/
forum/politics/7609.shtml
-
- These sites list the activities of and accusations against
Ben Gvir, from the first such public accusation in Makor Rishon all the
way back to 1993. Shahaf Pilovitch writes in Rotter.net:
-
- The Jerusalem District Court acquitted Itamar Ben Gvir
of Intimidation Of The Court and Insulting A Public Officer. Ben Gvir distributed
posters throughout Jerusalem accusing Judge Tzvi Segal of being a 'threat
to the Right and the settlers. If he doesn't alter his leftish views outside
the court, he should not last long as a judge.'
-
- And the court acquitted him? Sounds a lot like Avishai
Raviv, no?
-
- Pilovitch concludes:
-
- Itamar Ben Gvir is a Shabak operative and it is up to
the public to put a stop to him because the political system which employs
him won't. Our politicians work hand in hand with him and none are going
to expose the fact that other Avishai Ravivs continue his legacy of destroying
the Right from within.
-
- I e-mailed Amir Shouan what I proved within 2 hours:
-
- Main points:
-
- Ben Gvir was called a Shabak provocateur for his activities
in Gush Katif by Arie Eldad and Nadia Matar. Matar asked the police to
remove him from Gush Katif for his activities. He sued Arie Eldad for the
accusation.
-
- Ben Gvir was accused of being a Shabak provocator in
both Makor Rishon and Hatsofe. He sued Hatsofe for the accusation.
-
- Most telling: Ben Gvir was accused of being a Shabak
provocateur in the Kahane Chai and Yesha websites. And they should know.
Other websites who have so accused him include rotter.net and bsh.co.il
-
- Ben Gvir organized a staged training camp for Eyal youths
which included shooting at effigies of Arabs. This camp became a television
report made for IBA Channel One by Eitan Oren, accused of being a Shabak
Agent by the late Adir Zik in his radio broadcasts and reports for Hatsofe.
On Nov. 3/05, I appeared on Channel Ten's London And Kirschenbaum program.
There Kirschenbaum, who was the chairman of the IBA in 1994, admitted that
the report organized by Ben Gvir was staged.
-
- But I left out my favorite proof in case, somehow, it
is a coincidence. I doubt it.

- Seeking Solution, Shin Bet Offers Ben-G'vir Rent-Free
Apartment 16:04 Aug 11, '05 / 6 Av 5765
-
- (IsraelNN.com) Seeking to vacate the Kiryat Arba apartment
of Miriam and Yaron Adler, the Shin Bet has offered former Kach activist
Itamar Ben-G'vir and his wife a rent-free apartment.
-
- One of the reasons the Adlers cannot or will not accept
an administrative detention order to leave Sa-Nur is because they cannot
move back into their Kiryat Arba home since the Ben-G'virs are renting
the apartment.
-
- How thoughtful of the Shabak to give Ben Gvir a rent
free apartment. Funny, they did the very same thing for Avishai Raviv.

-
- My readers know I can't afford to defend myself in a
$40,000 suit. This is the latest act in a lengthening list to stop my work.
In the past two weeks, checks were removed from my mailbox with two envelopes
delivered open. A close associate was tailed and her neighbors questioned
about her ties to me. Possibly related, checks for books I had paid for
ended up being recashed on the black market. I'm being whittled away, a
la Lenny Bruce in the courts, Ben Gvir being the latest judicial scam.
-
- I have the evidence to expose the rot of the provocateurs.
Anyone who will join me to give evidence will be appreciated and will be
saving free speech in Israel. I opened up a post box for donations and
help:
