    Dept of Neurosurgery, Hadassah Hospital / Hebrew University Medical School, Jerusalem, Israel Whilst planning my elective, I managed to distil my aims down to three fundamental themes: immersion in neurosurgery; exposure to a different health system; and the exploration of Israel. With my feet back on English soil I have come to realise how insightful my elective was and the privilege I was granted in being able to undertake it. Excitement aside, my arrival in Ben Gurion airport was shrouded in apprehension. I was to spend four weeks in neurosurgical unit of the world-renowned Hadassah Medical Centre, equipped with little more than a guidebook and an undergraduate grasp of neuro-anatomy. Fortunately, my first few days in Jerusalem were some of acclimatization allowing me to settle in before the placement-proper began. From my hostel in Davidka Square I ventured out, only to be overwhelmed by the vivacity and variety the city had to offer. I passed from the westernised new city under Jaffa Gate, to be greeted by the rich tangle of streets and alleyways which make up the old city. The Via Dolorosa, Holy Sepulchre, Damascus Gate… The venerable renown of these timeless places seemed so at odds with the modern-day souvenir stalls and falafel stands. I arrived at the Western Wall plaza just as the city prepared to welcome Shabbat, and was in awe at the holy fervour which built as the sun set. Jerusalem, in all her antiquity and modernity, was like no place I had ever seen, and I was fascinated. My first impressions of Hadassah Ein Kerem were dominated by the site’s enormity.

  • Israel Travel Guide You Are Reading Is a Greatly Expanded Version of One I First Prepared for an American Friend Some Two Decades Ago
    ISRAEL: A PERSONAL TRAVEL GUIDE By Douglas E. Duckett Cincinnati, Ohio, USA [email protected] ©2004-2016 Douglas E. Duckett All rights reserved. INTRODUCTION. The Israel travel guide you are reading is a greatly expanded version of one I first prepared for an American friend some two decades ago. In it, I have tried to share my experiences and knowledge of Israel based on a lifetime of study and fifteen visits to the country, most recently in May 2016. I enjoy independent travel, and this guide was written primarily with such travelers in mind, though I hope the information will be helpful to those on group tours as well. As an American, I have produced a guide that, no doubt, reflects that identify and experience. I hope my readers from other countries will forgive that, and still find useful information to help plan their trips. I am not in the travel industry. Rather, I am a labor lawyer who loves Israel passionately and wants to encourage others to travel there and experience this wonderful land. My first visit was in November 1988, and I caught the bug; thus I started visiting every other year or so thereafter, except for 2000-2004, the truly terrible years of the second Palestinian uprising and the terror bombings in Israel cities. Now, with partial retirement, I am going every year (God willing!). Even with the mostly peaceful conditions prevailing since then, some friends still asked, “are you sure you want to go back to Israel?” Of course, recent tensions in Jerusalem, with a wave of stabbing attacks on Israelis, have further increased those anxieties, even for me to some degree.

  • The City Square in the Performance of Taanit: from Rabbinic Space to Contemporary Jerusalem*
    Journal of Levantine Studies Vol. 5, No. 1, Summer 2015, pp. 59-81 The City Square in the Performance of Taanit: From Rabbinic Space to Contemporary Jerusalem* Yair Lipshitz Tel Aviv University [email protected] Whether its roots are in the Athenian agora, the medieval marketplace, or the Renaissance piazza, the city square has been celebrated in Western imagination as a privileged site of civic participation, exchange, and democratic action.1 Recent protest movements, worldwide and specifically in the Middle East, have stirred renewed attention to city squares. From Tahrir Square in Cairo and Taksim Square in Istanbul, through Syntagma Square in Athens and Puerta del Sol in Madrid, to the now nonexistent Pearl Roundabout in Bahrain—all these played a vital role in the political action of cities and nations. This was part of a wider reclaiming of urban public spaces (such as Rothschild Boulevard in Tel Aviv and Zuccotti Park in New York) as sites of political and social activism and conflict.2 The later global branding of some of the protest movements under the name “Occupy” further exemplifies this spatial concern: it alludes to an assertive (perhaps even aggressive) act of infiltration, of claiming access and use of spaces that were hitherto perceived as removed or taken away from public sociopolitical use. As a whole these modes of protest can be seen as a response to what Setha Low and Neil Smith call “a trenchant reregulation and redaction of public space,” in which a “creeping encroachment in previous years has in the last

  • My Cousin, Stuart Schoffman, a Supreme Ironist
    My Cousin, Stuart Schoffman, a Supreme Ironist There’s an interesting item by my cousin Stuart Schoffman, published last week in New York’s Jewish Week newspaper (“We’ve Been in This Movie Before“). I try to visit with Stuart every time I’m in Jerusalem. He’s a brilliant writer — a journalist, screenwriter and translator. This piece exemplifies his discursive style, his liberal political perspective and his appreciation for irony: The week after Independence Day, I took the Number 18 bus to the Mahane Yehuda market, to run a few Friday errands. I got off at Davidka Square, where the Street of the Prophets meets Jaffa Road. In the midst of the square is a monument of the 1948 War, displaying a homemade mortar nicknamed “Davidka,” one of six deployed by Jewish fighters; the mortars were notoriously inaccurate but incredibly loud, so much so, the story goes, that Arab forces thought the Jews might have the atomic bomb. It’s been quite a while since we were David and they were Goliath, but we still cherish the myth. In June 2003, a Number 14 bus was blown up in Davidka Square by a Hamas suicide bomber dressed as a charedi Jew: 17 Israelis died. The Israeli Air Force promptly retaliated in Gaza. That was at the height of the second intifada, during which more than 1,000 Israelis and 3,000 Palestinians were killed. In recent years, Arab terrorists in our midst haven’t blown up buses or cafés. (In Jerusalem, we get the occasional stabbing, and lethal attacks on pedestrians by local Palestinians driving tractors and other vehicles.) But we as a nation do experience traumatic eruptions such as last summer’s devastating Gaza war, also known as “Operation Protective Edge.” On this year’s Memorial Day, Israelis grieved for the 67 IDF soldiers killed in that war; and the very next day, we celebrated Israel’s 67th birthday.

The Black Panthers’ anti-imperialist politics, militant visual style, grassroots strategies, and community programs appealed within and beyond the United States.
