Many of the sources posed problems concerning numerical data on immi­ gration, especially for the months leading up to the end of the British Mandate, January-April 1948, and the first few months of the state, May­ August 1948. The researchers point out that 7,574 immigrant data cards are missing from the records and believe this to be due to the 'circumstances of the times'. Records are complete from September 1948 onward, and an important population census was held in November 1948. A parallel record­ ing system conducted by the Jewish Agency, which continued to operate after that of the Mandatory Government, provided us with statistical data for immigration during 1948-9 and made it possible to analyse the part taken by the Holocaust survivors.

  • Alexander River Report
    On Saturday morning, July 18th, 2020, at 6:30 a.m. fourteen male cyclists (plus two female cyclists) arrived at the parking lot at the Alexander River Estuary. Welcome Fernando! A new cyclist joined us! Fernando has been following the group for some time now. Fernando, a Ra’anana citizen, is an optician, who arrived from France after 6 years there. The weatherman announced the previous day, that it would be get hotter on Saturday. I looked up to the sky and hung my hopes in the clouds piled up in the sky. The same clouds which later on helped us ease the heat load. We started the ride by bypassing the groundwork taking place in the estuary, in trying to expand and deepen it. The Alexander River Estuary which spills into the sea on the Beit Yanay Beach. The direction of the ride was from the sea to the east, up to a Nature Preserve and back, about 32 km in all. A lot has been said about The Alexander River. It is an overhead stream flowing from the mountains of Samaria to the Mediterranean Sea. It runs moistly in The Hefer Valley. The river is 32 km long. In its upper part it is a seasonal stream, because of the rocky earth through which the water seeps. In its lower part, it is an official National Park, serving as a home for soft turtles. The Turtle Bridge was erected on the river, which attracts many travelers, who come to watch the turtles. The Turtle Bridge There are two versions regarding the origin of the name of the river: one is named after Alexander Jannaeus, who was king in the Hasmonean Dynasty in the 1st century BC., and who conquered the area, in which the river flows.

An overview on desert aquaculture in Israel. In V. Crespi & A. Lovatelli, eds. Aquaculture in desert and arid lands: development constraints and opportunities. FAO Technical Workshop. 6–9 July 2010, Hermosillo, Mexico. FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Proceedings No. 20. Rome, FAO. 2011. pp. 85–112. SUMMARY The State of Israel has a very diverse climate. Most of the country is in a semi-arid zone, with distinct short winter (wet) and long summer (dry) seasons, and a low annual rainfall of around 500 mm (an overall multi-annual average). The country can be divided into two climatic regions: (1) the southern arid/semi-arid areas have very low annual precipitation (<100 mm) and consist of the Negev Desert and the Arava Valley; this arid zone extends also to the Jordan Valley where annual rainfall is below 300 mm; (2) the central-north of the country that has a temperate, Mediterranean climate and a relatively high annual rainfall (>600 mm). Israel has suffered from a chronic water shortage for years. In recent years, however, the situation has developed into a severe crisis; since 1998, the country has suffered from drought, and the annual rainfall was short of the multi-annual average in most of the years.

  • ^ How I Became a "Self-Hating Jew"
    How I Became-ALL ARTS I was surfing the web and I found this wonderful video, "How I became a 'Self- Hating Jew'". This clearly intelligent & sensitive young woman's heart shines brightly. Her descriptions of her encounters with Zionists & their supporters is just heart- breaking. More and more people need to see the obvious; Israel is a terrorist, racist, theocratic, and soul-killing country. It's not good for the Palestinians, the Bedouins, not even the Jewish people themselves. I'm glad Carey Wedler gets it. I hope other young people understands this, too.

    A Guide to Birding in Israel & Trip Report for 25th April – 5th May 2019 Trip Report author: Steve Arlow [email protected] Blog for further images: https://stevearlowsbirding.blogspot.com/ Purpose of this Trip Report / Guide I have visited Israel numerous times since spring since 2012 and have produced birding trip reports for each of those visits however for this report I have collated all of my previous useful information and detail, regardless if they were visited this year or not. Those sites not visited this time around are indicated within the following text. However, if you want to see the individual trip reports the below are detailed in Cloudbirders. March 2012 March 2013 April – May 2014 March 2016 April – May 2016 March 2017 April – May 2018 Summary of the Trip This year’s trip in late April into early May was not my first choice for dates, not even my second but it delivered on two key target species. Originally I had wanted to visit from mid-April to catch the Levant Sparrowhawk migration that I have missed so many previous times before however this coincided with Passover holidays in Israel and accommodation was either not available (Lotan) or bonkersly expensive (Eilat) plus the car rental prices were through the roof and there would be holiday makers everywhere. I decided then to return in March and planned to take in the Hula (for the Crane spectacle), Mt. Hermon, the Golan, the Beit She’an Valley, the Dead Sea, Arava and Negev as an all-rounder. However I had to cancel the day I was due to travel as an issue arose at home that I just had to be there for.

Although the members of the subcommittee do not want to make definitive judgments on the applicability of education in Israel to American needs, they are most favorably impressed by the great emphasis which the Israelis place on early childhood programs, vocational/technical education, and residential youth villages. The people of Israel are considered profoundly dedicated to the support of education at every level. The country works toward expansion of opportunities for education, based upon a belief that the educational system is the key to the resolution of major social problems. In the second part of the report, the detailed itinerary of the subcommittee is described with annotated comments about the places and persons visited. In the last part, appendixes describing in great depth characteristics of the Israeli education system (higher education in Israel, education and culture, and the kibbutz) are reprinted.
