Canadian JNF president. Neri Bloomfield, who an-
nounced the project, siiid .while visiting' devastated sites, in Israel; that the images, were ■"heartbreaking." .
"N\'h> destro)'trees? Israel's eneinie>.realize what the\ mean not only in practical terms but (also) spiritually and emotionally .They wish to strike at the spiritual heart of all of,us. .. . ."
She said Canadian Jews will not be intimidated b>r '■terrorism.'"
- JNF national director Michael Goldstein stressed the- special campaign' is
separate from JNF's normal operations, such as its telethons and Tu B'She vat campaign. ^

The can'ipaign is in line vvith Israeli, presideiit. Chaim- Herzog's call for
world Jewry to plant 10 trees for every onebirnred.; , '">() one knows when and where this devastation will end," Goldstein said. ■ vVVhat we do know is that it takes 10 years for a tree to mature and that there is a great deal of \\ork to be done to restore Israel's f()rests to the condition of which all of us w ere so proud before this 'tree terrorism' began."
