Last week, I participated in a two-day seminar, organized by Ruach Chadasha, a 
group of teachers running for the Irgun Hamorim elections, led by Dudi 
Friedman. In all of my 32 years of membership in the Irgun, I have never felt 
elated as I did during this seminar. I am filled with hope after meeting Dudi 
Friedman and other people in his team, listening to serious lecturers on the 
topic of EDUCATION, which, by the way, has a lot to do with HOT, LOG and 
PROJECTS in all areas, not only in English. Just imagine if we could work on a 
joint project with the History teacher, where English articles support a 
History research project conducted in Hebrew! 
 

YES, WE CAN bring about a change within the Irgun, which will affect the whole 
system. My optimism may sound naÃ¯ve to some, but what have we got to lose? The 
current leader has failed to produce any real change since the strike. Dudi 
Friedman has a different approach, and I believe it will make a difference. I 
have spoken to him about our specific issues, and was refreshed by his 
attentiveness, quick understanding and way of looking at things. 

 

I have never been involved in the Irgun's election process before, but this 
time, I believe that a fresh spirit is urgently needed, and Ruach Chadasha has 
the vision. Please spread the news amongst your colleagues (not just the 
English teachers), so we can get organized in time. Dudi, or other teachers on 
his team, will be happy to come and talk to teaching staff at the different 
schools. 

 

You can read about Ruach Chadasha on the website: www.4morim.co.il, where you 
will also find Laurie Ornstein's letter, written almost a year ago. 

 

I'm sure that, together, we can make this happen.
