A Birthday Oath

Today, the 12th of Av (according to the Jewish calendar) is my birthday.

Today, the 12th of Av is the day that the physical destruction of the Jewish communities of Gush Katif and the expulsion of thousands of Jews from their homes in the Land of Israel at the hands of Jewish soldiers and police, as commanded by a Jewish government, has begun.

I have decided to take an oath (neder) upon myself, whereby I will refrain from any public / festive celebrations of my birthday (this year's, as well as future ones) until the Jewish communities of Gush Katif are restored in all their glory.

May it be speedily in our days...
