  • 1948 Arab‒Israeli
    1948 Arab–Israeli War 1 1948 Arab–Israeli War מלחמת or מלחמת העצמאות :The 1948 Arab–Israeli War, known to Israelis as the War of Independence (Hebrew ,מלחמת השחרור :, Milkhemet Ha'atzma'ut or Milkhemet HA'sikhror) or War of Liberation (Hebrewהשחרור Milkhemet Hashikhrur) – was the first in a series of wars fought between the State of Israel and its Arab neighbours in the continuing Arab-Israeli conflict. The war commenced upon the termination of the British Mandate of Palestine and the Israeli declaration of independence on 15 May 1948, following a period of civil war in 1947–1948. The fighting took place mostly on the former territory of the British Mandate and for a short time also in the Sinai Peninsula and southern Lebanon.[1] ., al-Nakba) occurred amidst this warﺍﻟﻨﻜﺒﺔ :Much of what Arabs refer to as The Catastrophe (Arabic The war concluded with the 1949 Armistice Agreements. Background Following World War II, on May 14, 1948, the British Mandate of Palestine came to an end. The surrounding Arab nations were also emerging from colonial rule. Transjordan, under the Hashemite ruler Abdullah I, gained independence from Britain in 1946 and was called Jordan, but it remained under heavy British influence. Egypt, while nominally independent, signed the Anglo-Egyptian Treaty of 1936 that included provisions by which Britain would maintain a garrison of troops on the Suez Canal. From 1945 on, Egypt attempted to renegotiate the terms of this treaty, which was viewed as a humiliating vestige of colonialism. Lebanon became an independent state in 1943, but French troops would not withdraw until 1946, the same year that Syria won its independence from France.

  • Lebanon Border Enigma
    72 Articles Section THE ISRAEL – LEBANON BORDER ENIGMA David Eshel INTRODUCTION On 24 May 2000 the last Israeli troops deployed in south Lebanon pulled back into Israel, closing and padlocking the border gate behind them. Less than a month later the UN Security Council endorsed UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan’s assertion that Israel had “withdrawn its forces from Lebanon in accordance with Resolution 425” – bringing to an end Israel’s 22 year presence in south Lebanon. These events have focused worldwide attention on a hitherto relatively insignificant issue – the definition of the Lebanese-Israeli boundary. The legacy of political and strategic problems associated with this border, the result of short-sighted decisions and compromises prompted by colonial concerns some eighty years ago, means that to date this border is neither properly defined along its full length nor fully accepted by To date this border the nations either side of it. is neither properly defined along its full The Israeli withdrawal in May was to a line defined by the UN and designated as the length nor fully “Blue Border Line”, which is more or less consistent with the Anglo-French 1923 accepted by the accord. However, disagreements between Lebanon, Israel and the UN as to the exact nations either side line of the border and the consequent refusal of Lebanon to deploy troops to southern of it Lebanon and allow the UN to deploy to the border created a dangerous void along the border. Hezbullah, which had been instrumental in speeding up the Israeli withdrawal were still in place in the area and the existence of several controversial issues along the border meant that the border region could be a major flash point in the volatile Middle East.

  • GREEN WITHOUT BORDERS the Operational Benefits of Hezbollah’S Environmental NGO
    THE WASHINGTON INSTITUTE FOR NEAR EAST POLICY ■ MAY 2020 ■ PN79 PHOTO CREDIT: REUTERS Matthew Levitt Samantha Stern GREEN WITHOUT BORDERS The Operational Benefits of Hezbollah’s Environmental NGO On April 14, 2020, two incidents occurred along the Israel-Lebanon border, although only one garnered significant attention. In the widely covered event, peacekeepers from the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) broke up a “short standoff” between the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) in which the two sides pointed guns at each other. The intervention took place just south of the Blue Line marking the de facto international border, in the area between the Lebanese village of Adaisseh and the Israeli village of Misgav Am.1 In the second incident, four kilometers to the north, near the Lebanese village of Kfar Kila and the Israeli town of Metula, UNIFIL personnel trimmed back trees that were blocking security cameras’ line of vision along the border barrier. Four days earlier, Hezbollah media had published pictures of what it called an initiative by Green Without Borders (GWB), a Hezbollah-affiliated NGO, to plant dozens of trees obstructing “spy cameras” installed by the “Zionist enemy” on the border wall.2 UNIFIL acted only because the trees were planted on the Israeli side of the Blue Line, although this territory is claimed by Lebanon. © 2020 THE WASHINGTON INSTITUTE FOR NEAR EAST POLICY.
