By Anshel Pfeffer, Haaretz Correspondent : Jewish Agency wages battle to retain monopoly over aliyah
Talkback
Title: Keep the Misrad Klita, eliminate the JA Name: David Teich City: Rehovot State:
The Shlachim in Californnia were incompetent at best, liars at worst, when I made aliyah in December, 2002. They even forced me to make a pilot trip here even though I knew what I wanted. It seems folks who work hard for the JA here are given a perk of a 2 year vacation to the US, the title of Shaliach and told they don`t have to do anything while there. However, Misrad Klita folks in Karmiel, where I moved, were wonderful people and were of great help. Keep the later, eliminate the former.
