The AIC Support Campaign - What has been done? 

Although extensive individual efforts by the persons listed above have failed in the past to achieve positive results, we expect that local and international pressure on the Israeli authorities will cause them to reconsider their position. 
Therefore the AIC has undertaken the following steps to prepare a modest campaign for their issue: 
- Publishing the ex-prisoners’ story in a small report  
- Sending two written requests to the Interior Ministry asking them to reconsider the policy of refusing family reunification to former political prisoners in Jerusalem. Both letters dated 5/12/93 and 10/1/94 have remained unanswered until now. 
- Letters to several Israeli MKs who are known for having supported Palestinian residency rights in the past. Consequently, MK Tamar Gozanski/HADASH submitted a list of urgent questions to the Minister of the Interior, and MK Yael Dayan/LABOR adopted the cases of two activists presented in the AIC report. We are awaiting the results of their efforts.
