I would also like to thank Professor Heather Williams for her help and guidance. I would like to thank Kara Placeck for lending her ear and expertise in statistical analysis. I would also like to thank Mimi Goss for her support and lending hand. I would like to thank all my interviewees for their openness with me and willingness to reflect on a potentially traumatic moment in their lives— and even find some humor along the way. I would finally like to thank those who felt too uncomfortable to be named in tangent with this research. I look in hope to the future where the subject of equal treatment under the law may be explored without fear. Goss 5 Chapter 1: Introduction He who has been banned is not, in fact, simply set outside the law and made indifferent to it but rather abandoned by it, that is, exposed and threatened on the threshold in which life and law, outside and inside, become indistinguishable. –Giorgio Agamben1 I. Israel: State of Inclusion; State of Exclusion On July 5, 2015, I was traveling from Amman, Jordan to Jerusalem. I got on a bus at Abdali Station in Amman at 7 a.m. We arrived around 8:30 a.m. at the King Hussein/Allenby Bridge border crossing that is the gateway to Jerusalem and the West Bank. At the border I underwent eight hours of waiting and questioning until I was finally presented with a “Decision Concerning Denial of Entry According to the Entry into Israel Law, 5712-1952” in which I was denied entry to Israel for “prevention of illegal immigration considerations.” The exact implications of this denial are unclear, even within the text of the law officially published on September 5, 1952.2 However, one thing was made overwhelmingly clear: I was banned from the country for five years. This event did not occur in a vacuum.

  • What's Really Happening in Syria: Who Started
    What’s Really Happening in Syria: Who Started the War, Who Can You Trust to Tell the Truth? A Consumer Fraud Lawyer’s Mini-Primer By Robert Roth Region: Middle East & North Africa Global Research, September 19, 2018 Theme: Media Disinformation, US NATO New Cold War 2 January 2017 War Agenda In-depth Report: SYRIA This article, first published on GR in January 2017, provides an understanding of the history of the war on Syria, from the outset in mid-March 2011. The U.S./NATO line If you try to follow events in the mainstream media (MSM), you may have noticed that they routinely refer to Syrian president Bashar al Assad as a “brutal dictator”. Assad is supposed to have responded to peaceful protests with repressive violence and by “killing his own people”. The U.S., UK, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar continue to maintain that “Assad must go”. I disagree with all of that, as I’ll explain in this article. I spent 25 years prosecuting lies in commerce for the attorneys general of New York and Oregon. I prepared this primer to help you cut through the lies and get at the truth about Syria. Much of this article is a string of excerpts from the excellent work of authors I’ve come to trust and citations or links to sources for further information and analysis. International law, morality, and the sovereignty of the people Since Syria has not threatened the United States in any way, let alone attacked us, our government has no right to try to overthrow the Syrian government.

    מרכז המידע הישראלי לזכויות האדם בשטחים (ע.ר.) One Big Prison Freedom of Movement to and from the Gaza Strip on the Eve of the Disengagement Plan March 2005 Researched and written by Yehezkel Lein Data coordination by Najib Abu Rokaya, Ariana Baruch, Rim ‘Odeh, Shlomi Swissa Fieldwork by Musa Abu Hashhash, Iyad Haddad, Zaki Kahil, Karim Jubran, Mazen al-Majdalawi, ‘Abd al-Karim S’adi Assistance on legal issues by Yossi Wolfson Translated by Zvi Shulman, Shaul Vardi Edited by Rachel Greenspahn Introduction “The only thing missing in Gaza is a morning line-up,” said Abu Majid, who spent ten years in Israeli prisons, to Israeli journalist Amira Hass in 1996.1 This sarcastic comment expressed the frustration of Gaza residents that results from Israel’s rigid policy of closure on the Gaza Strip following the signing of the Oslo Agreements. The gap between the metaphor of the Gaza Strip as a prison and the reality in which Gazans live has rapidly shrunk since the outbreak of the intifada in September 2000 and the imposition of even harsher restrictions on movement. The shrinking of this gap is the subject of this report. Israel’s current policy on access into and out of the Gaza Strip developed gradually during the 1990s. The main component is the “general closure” that was imposed in 1993 on the Occupied Territories and has remained in effect ever since. Every Palestinian wanting to enter Israel, including those wanting to travel between the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, needs an individual permit. In 1995, about the time of the Israeli military’s redeployment in the Gaza Strip pursuant to the Oslo Agreements, Israel built a perimeter fence, encircling the Gaza Strip and separating it from Israel.

  • Jordan – Palestinians – West Bank – Passports – Citizenship – Fatah
    Refugee Review Tribunal AUSTRALIA RRT RESEARCH RESPONSE Research Response Number: JOR35401 Country: Jordan Date: 27 October 2009 Keywords: Jordan – Palestinians – West Bank – Passports – Citizenship – Fatah This response was prepared by the Research & Information Services Section of the Refugee Review Tribunal (RRT) after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the RRT within time constraints. This response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum. This research response may not, under any circumstance, be cited in a decision or any other document. Anyone wishing to use this information may only cite the primary source material contained herein. Questions 1. Please provide background on the issue of Jordanian citizenship for persons of West Bank Palestinian descent. 2. What is the overall situation for Palestinian citizens of Jordan? 3. Have there been any crackdowns upon Fatah members over the last 15 years? 4. What kind of relationship exists between Fatah and the Jordanian authorities? RESPONSE 1. Please provide background on the issue of Jordanian citizenship for persons of West Bank Palestinian descent. Most Palestinians in Jordan hold a Jordanian passport of some type but the status accorded different categories of Palestinians in Jordan varies, as does the manner and terminology through which different sources classify and discuss Palestinians in Jordan. The webpage of the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) states that: “All Palestine refugees in Jordan have full Jordanian citizenship with the exception of about 120,000 refugees originally from the Gaza Strip, which up to 1967 was administered by Egypt”; the latter being “eligible for temporary Jordanian passports, which do not entitle them to full citizenship rights such as the right to vote and employment with the government”.

  • Palestine the Peculiar Case of the Palestinians and Their International Visitors
    Welcome to Palestine The Peculiar Case of the Palestinians and their International Visitors Master’s thesis Julius Weise 10451390 Cultural & Social Anthropology GSS Supervisor: Anne de Jong Annelies Moors & Dina Zbeidy Word count: 29760 Amsterdam 26-06-2017 1 Formulae on Plagiarism I have read and understood the University of Amsterdam plagiarism policy I declare that this assignment is entirely my own work, all sources have been properly acknowledged, and that I have not previously submitted this work, or any version of it, for assessment in any other paper. 2 Abstract This research engages with political tourism in the Occupied Territories of Palestine. Palestinians have little chances in advocating their political agenda due to their limited freedom of movement and the one sided media coverage on the region. By educating tourists Palestinians try to make their story heard. Therefore, in the Oslo Peace Process with Israel, tourism was meant to play a leading role – as an instrument for peace – and regional tourism was expected to valorize regional exchange and sharing. However, Israel tries to stop any tourism development in Palestine for economic and political reasons. This research focuses of the everyday reality of the still ongoing tourism industry on the West Bank of Palestine. For this thesis I conducted a fieldwork, research period of three months on the West Bank. Through participant observations and qualitative interviews I have tried to grasp this social reality looking at both the tourists and the Palestinian hosts. In this paper I argue that tourism in Palestine is to be understood as a form of everyday resistance.

  • Annual Report 2020
    Neve Shalom -Wahat al Salam ANNUAL REPORT 2020 A Message from the Director Dear Friends, As a graduate of the School for Peace and staff member for the last fourteen years, I was honored to have received the support and confidence of the staff and board of the NSWAS educational institutions in being chosen as the new director of the School for Peace. I began in October 2020 with the challenge of filling Nava's 'big shoes' and building the direction for the future. I'm happy to say that I feel very much at home and look forward to carrying the organization forward. The arson attack at the SFP this September left us with the big challenge of rebuilding the school and raising the necessary funds. I am happy to say that after the fire we were able to quickly organize and find additional space in the village to continue our important work. The support we received from all of our friends in the region and abroad helped us once again realize how significant the School for Peace is to all of us. The political situation in the country reminds us on a daily basis that there are few places where Jews and Palestinians can meet and work together as equals and the uniqueness of our work and methodology has become much more apparent and indispensable. In the coming years, the SFP will work to help our graduates become more active and influential in peace activities. Based on our unique voice, we will strengthen our connections with peace activists nationally and internationally as we continue operating our important programs.

  • Arab/Israeli Conflict Today Instructor: Dr
    HIS 130A-01 - Arab/Israeli Conflict Today Instructor: Dr. Avi Marcovitz Fall 2016, Wednesday Email: [email protected] Time: 14:00 – 15:30 Phone: 050-300-7232 2 credits Course Description: This course provides an intensive, demanding and often emotional immersion into the historical, cultural and political aspects of the Middle East from a variety of experts. Throughout the semester, students will learn about the important sites in the area and possibly meet with individuals and groups that are active in Israel- Arab affairs. Students will benefit from a unique view of the conflict between Israel and the Arab world and gain insights and experiences that most students are not exposed to. These are intellectually challenging encounters designed to enable the students to become more knowledgeable and to learn to intelligently discuss the complex nature of what happens in Israel and the Palestinian territories. The course includes exposure to some controversial points of view, difficult sights and potentially confusing experiences. Our approach requires students to listen carefully and patiently digest the information, some of which includes differing perspectives on the same historical and contemporary events. The complicated and complex nature of the subject area requires active attention and participation in all activities and lectures, during the semester. Lectures will feature all sides of the political spectrum (Jews and Arabs and Palestinians and Israelis.) Classes are interactive experiences that review topics related to current events an in detail. Assigned reading and writing exercises as well as examinations will be required, as in any academic course. Throughout the course, students will view many examples of video footage from the Israeli, Palestinian and world media, participate in class debates over contemporary issues, and learn to respond to some of the most common allegations and threats facing Israel, such as the Apartheid accusation, the origin and predicament of the refugees and the emerging Iranian threat.
