Haaretz Staff and Channel 10 : Many divorcees who moved to Israel for love now trapped in the country
Talkback
Title:Women & Children stranded in Israel
Name:Deborah Lowenhar
City: MuncieState: IN, USA
Former husband to Lori Kate Lowenhar knew exactly where his children were at all times. He called and talked to them whenever he felt like it which was 1-2 times a month. He also gave his permission for her to come in writing and verbally. Our daughter tried to work things out with David in visitations for the children to come to Israel for visits but he doesn`t want her to have her freedom in America and chooses to keep her a prisoner there. We rarely get to see the children....my husband`s health makes it difficult to travel. We have been in court for three years and our savings is gone because we felt it necessary to try and gain freedom for our daughter and grandchildren.
In America, Lori Kate Had a tremendous suppot system and opportunity to support her family in a reasonable manner. In Israel she has no support and is barely able to support herself or the family. Her ex husband is a stumbling block to settle this matter in Israeli court.
