20:27 Aug 14, '05 / 9 Av 5765

(IsraelNN.com) Professor Ely Merzbach, who teaches Mathematics at Bar Ilan University, set up one of the first protest tents outside the Kisufim Crossing leading into Gaza Sunday afternoon.

The professor pitched his tent after police did not allow him into Gush Katif to visit his grandchildren and family members living in Shirat HaYam.

Professor Merzbach told Arutz-7 that he intends on staying at Kisufim until he is allowed to enter Gush Katif and invites others refused entry to join him there.

Some of the nutbars in Yamit were talking about doing a Masada in 1982...this particular crew was so far out there they brought in Meier Kahane to get them to not go there.
