Re: The Struggle of the Disabled
In recent years, I participate in the struggle of the disabled in the State of Israel, a struggle that was significantly covered by the media. But it is a well-known fact that there are delays, slow turning of the cogs, neglection and evasion by the State of Israel toward the crisis of the disabled.
This attitude is being carried on for many years, and every authority to which I address replies with the usual phrasing “it has nothing to do with us”, or its twin – “we are not the correct address for this.” Of course there are many cases in which no reply is provided at all, or many cases in which the disabled receives aggressive or threatening replies – for no good reason – and that I personally had to deal with it innumerous times in the past.
To cut short: Today, this issue is not related to any specific person, nobody cares, and the disabled that continue to die in the streets do not bother or occupy the State of Israel.
With this saddening understanding of reality, I approach many entities outside of Israel – different international organizations and private people, some of I reach on a random basis. This addressing has two goals: inviting external pressure on the decision makers in Israel to start taking the crisis of the disabled more seriously, and also an attempt to examine the potential for this or that cooperation between organizations for the disabled in Israel and other countries in order to improve the life of the disabled communities worldwide. My question for you is this: Do you know or are you familiar with such entities that might assist in this kind of activity?
