Despite the seemingly Sisyphean nature of these efforts, a number of significant achievements were noted during this reporting period. These include the following: B’Tselem remains the gold standard for research - Our latest report, Acting the Landlord, provides a comprehensive overview of the most entrenched and long-term human rights violation: Israel's massive investment in Israeli settlements alongside the prevention of Palestinian economic and social development, and the constant threat of demolition of Palestinian homes. This report now serves as the centerpiece of advocacy and public education efforts. Our video project continues to break new ground - B'Tselem's YouTube channel is one of the most popular non-profit channels in Israel, with over 4.1 million views and 242 videos on site.

    Israeli Election Bulletin | January 15 On 23 December 2020 the Knesset was automatically dissolved after the national unity government failed to pass a 2020 state budget. The election will be held on 23 March 2021. For more background on the collapse of the coalition, watch BICOM Director Richard Pater and read this BICOM Morning Brief. BICOM's Poll of Polls Aggregate Polling January 5-15 Many parties such as Momentum, Labour, Veterans, New Economy and Telem are polling under the electoral threshold Two others, Blue and White and Religious Zionism, are polling very close to the threshold (4 seats). If either of them were to fall under it, it would signicantly aect the ability of Netanyahu or his opponents to form a coalition 1/11 Splits, Mergers and Acquisitions We are now in the rst stage of the election process.

  • NAFTALI BENNETT INAUGURATION SPEECH at the Knesset in Jerusalem, Israel by Luis B

    NAFTALI BENNETT INAUGURATION SPEECH at the Knesset in Jerusalem, Israel by Luis B

    NAFTALI BENNETT INAUGURATION SPEECH At the Knesset in Jerusalem, Israel by Luis B. Vega [email protected] www.PostScritpts.org ‘When Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem the Arab, and the rest of our Enemies heard that I had rebuilt the Wall and not a gap was left, though to that time I had not yet installed the Doors in the Gates, Sanballat and Geshem sent me this message: Come, let us meet together in one of the villages on the plain of Ono. But they were planning to harm me.’ -Nehemiah 6:1-2 The purpose of this study is to 1st provide the official released Inauguration Speech of Israel’s new Prime Minister, Naftali Bennett. The 2nd purposed is to analyze key prophetic inferences related to the Last Days that are pertinent from the speech in light of a Christian perspective and interpretation of world event and Israel’s coming 70th Week for Years. It is very interesting how when such national events occur and the occasion is for a Transition of Government, for example, that such People invoke the Name of GOD, in this case, the GOD of Israel, YHVH. Bennett ended his speech with a prayer to ‘Our Heavenly Father, the Rock and Redeemer of Israel’. It is very interesting as it echoes the Triune Nature of YHVH being, Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. If one knows and has read the Gospel accounts of Jesus, it is striking how at the account of the Resurrection of Jesus, Mary Magdalene sought to locate the body of Jesus. Why? She came to the Garden Tomb and found that the Stone that had sealed the Tomb was rolled away.
  • Access for All Academic Year 2016-2017

    Access for All Academic Year 2016-2017

    ACCESS FOR ALL ACADEMIC YEAR 2016-2017 END OF THE ACADEMIC YEAR 2 SUMMARY OF THE ACADEMIC YEAR – 2016–2017 Founder of the Program – Dr. Adi Koll Another activity year has ended. Seemingly a trivial matter. Same buses, same sandwiches (of course not) and the same classes. In fact nothing is taken for granted in the unique endeavor that is the “Access for All” program. Every year hundreds and thousands of participants choose to take time off from their everyday duties in order to expand their world and realize their basic right to learn. Tens of students choose to invest time to enrich and deepen their learning experience and to share the knowledge and tools they acquire with others. And together they choose to continue to do this week after week. To make this happen, every year a talented and skilled team must create a new and varied educational world for the participants and the instructing-students. This year it included tours and guest lectures, classes in the community and “Next Step” classes, leadership workshops and private lessons, summer classes, studies toward an academic degree, and much more. This is why, as you can read in this report, there is nothing ‘routine’ at the AFA, and this is not just ‘one more year’. On behalf of the Advisory Board and myself I happily applaud a year of inspiring undertakings and endeavors and to thank the CEO Tzach Ekshtein and the AFA staff for their leadership and guidance. I would also like to express our gratitude to the wonderful donors and partners that accompany our programs, many of them for many years, and that thanks to their unequivocal support we can all continue to choose.
