'They're fighting us with slander and libel'

Weiss vehemently denied reports that activists had attacked soldiers. "No such thing happened, it's a lie. It reminds me of the story about acid attacks in Kfar Darom [during the expulsion from Gush Katif—ed.]. There was no acid, there was no turpentine, there were no attacks on soldiers," she said.
The government is slandering nationalist Jews because it failed to defeat them in court, Weiss said. "They failed in their legal battle against us, because now it's clear that the Peace House was legally purchased by Jews, so they are trying to fight us with slander and libel."
The government is also upset by the obvious Jewish pride in Hevron, she said. "We're acting as Jews should, as the rightful owners of this place," she said. "Apparently the sight of Jews walking freely in the City of the Patriarchs, carefree and secure, is 'thorns in the eyes' of the Arabs and Olmert's leftist government and for that reason their method is to slander," she said.
