(IsraelNN.com) Kadima Knesset Member Shai Hemesh said Monday he is "paranoid" that the government might move the Gaza fence virtually on the edge of Kibbutz Kfar Aza, where he lives. "The meaning of moving the fence 1000 meters is to kill us. It means bringing the fence into our dining hall and tunnels into our yards," he said. The kibbutz is located across the road from Kibbutz Sa'ad in the western Negev and is less than five miles from Sderot.

Changing the location of the fence has been brought up in the past, but MK Hemesh warned that Prime Minister Ehud Olmert "cannot make such a move without political backing."
