For 20 years, Honenu's attorneys, support staff, and volunteers have been rushing from police station to court house to demonstration to wherever our assistance was needed, all throughout Israel, to help the thousands of plaintiffs and defendants from all walks of life, soldiers and citizens, who were in need of legal counsel due to a judicial system that was unresponsive to their plight.
Honenu has come to the assistance of a wide range of litigants, including:
Soldiers who defended themselves in life-threatening situations and found themselves investigated by the Military Criminal Investigation Division,
Victims of terror, the injured and the bereaved, whose only demand was justice,
Thousands of detainees protesting the expulsion from Gush Katif, the Northern Shomron and Amona,
Thousands of demonstrators who exercised their legal right to protest at hundreds of demonstrations over the years,
Youths who were tortured – interrogated "under extreme duress" – in the Shabak dungeons, and
Victims of rioting by Arab citizens of Israel.
The financial demands on Honenu are constantly increasing. Over the past year we have handled hundreds of requests from individuals, soldiers and civilians, who found themselves embroiled in legal crises following either nationalistic or security-related incidents.
To maintain our critical work, we have launched a fund-raising campaign. Honenu has never closed its doors to anyone in need of assistance. Help ensure our continued operation.
