Dear Friends,


In anticipation of Pope Benedict XVI's upcoming trip to Cuba from March
26-28, the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington has
launched a new nationwide on-line petition drive humbly appealing to His
Holiness to make whatever efforts necessary so that he may obtain Alan
Gross' release from Cuba while he is there.



We are respectfully requesting that you sign this
petition<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1109454702182&s=3021&e=001Ws5ddqFDld87E7hMcePQNr6ij1hvKXin8l0dXb6K3ZqBsCEvtvgcBhj-LB5M3gkju0JSCt8ztgBBoLq10tLtenP5jirJdKLuNCXyoj791RDnOtzHUDztCDvmYZx-V4Vyg2q15B8fIWQmsLGM3gUSyZpfgYWK3ro5ST29AbUiZS7Wi6zXApydcw==>
 atfreealangrossnow.com and forward it electronically (email, Twitter,
Facebook) to your family, friends and associates and encourage them to sign
and forward the petition to others.

Alan Gross, a resident of the DC Metropolitan Area, was arrested in Cuba in
December 2009 while working with the small Jewish community there to
improve their Internet access and to create an intranet for them.  He has
been incarcerated ever since. He languished in prison for over a year until
he was finally charged by the Cuban government.  He was convicted by a
Cuban court of "actions against the integrity of the State," and sentenced
to 15 years in prison. He subsequently appealed his sentence to the Cuban
Supreme Court and the court reaffirmed the sentence, exhausting all of
Alan's legal remedies. His only avenue left is commutation of his sentence
by Raul Castro, President of Cuba.

in India on 7/22/09 (details here: http://tinyurl.com/mao37b) Please take
out a few moments and say some tehillim (psalms) for the Israeli chayalim
(soldiers) & for everyone living in Israel. Please also same some tehillim
for the captive Israeli soldiers:
Guy ben Rina (Hever), disappeared near the Syrian-Israeli border in the
Golan Heights in August 1997; Tzvi ben Pninah (Feldman), Yekutiel Yehuda
Nachman ben Sarah (Katz), Zecharia Shlomo ben Miriam (Baumel), all captured
at the Sultan Yaaqub battle in Lebanon on June 11,1982.
