Roz, I fully support everything that you are doing. I have recently made Aliyah from the us and I am currently living in Netanya in a “cement block.” While I am grateful for what I have, I search the true freedom you all are speaking about. Are you still living on the same land? How exciting!:)

perhaps Roy Arad misunderstood. perhaps he came with his own personal preconceived notions and didn’t truly listen to what this place the Tzilia, has to say.
I came from the busy Jerusalem life, and from the moment I stepped under the Tzilia, I realized I had found something exceptional.

This is not a Rainbow gathering, a hippie drug nest or one long festival where people can call their selfish lack of motivation “freedom”.
It is a place of TRUE freedom, of POSITIVE action and of living the change we want to see in the world. Its a place of PERSONAL responsibily, to ourselves as humans, and to the earth on which we are all a commune of visitors.
The Arsuf Tzilia is open to ALL those who want to take part in remembering that there are other ways. To take part in evolving our relationship with the earth, and with our governments, our society.
To see Amir Ben Yaar quoted so whimsically-“no beauracracy, everyone living happy” was disappointing. Amir, and others under the Tzilia, have so many ideas and actions that far surpass those naive words . Actions that inspire people to rethink their connection with ground they walk on, the food they eat and the people they follow. actions that encourage health, and joy, and freedom.

all are accepted and all can take part. Don’t be fooled by this article.
enough words…
come see for yourself.
