  • Emergency in Israel
    Emergency in Israel Emergency Update on Jewish Agency Programming May 16, 2021 The recent violent events that have erupted across the country have left us all surprised and stunned: clashes with Palestinians in Jerusalem and on the Temple Mount; the deteriorating security tensions and the massive barrage of missiles from Gaza on southern and central Israel; and the outbreak of unprecedented violence, destruction, and lynching in mixed cities and Arab communities. To say that the situation is particularly challenging is an understatement. We must all deal with the consequences of the current tensions. Many of us are protecting family, coworkers, or people under our charge while missiles fall on our heads night and day, forcing us to seek shelter. We have all witnessed the unbearable sights of rioting, beating, and arson by Arab and Jewish extremists in Lod, Ramla, Acre, Kfar Qassem, Bat Yam, Holon, and other places. As an organization that has experienced hard times of war and destruction, as well as periods of prosperity and peace, it is our duty to rise up and make a clear statement: we will support and assist populations hit by missile fire as we did in the past, after the Second Lebanon War and after Operations Cast Lead and Protective Edge. Together with our partners, we will mobilize to heal and support the communities and populations affected by the fighting. Our Fund for Victims of Terror is already providing assistance to bereaved families. When the situation allows it, we will provide more extensive assistance to localities and communities that have suffered damage and casualties.

  • Address of Knesset Speaker MK Yuli-Yoel Edelstein at the Independence Day Torch Lighting Ceremony on Mt
    Address of Knesset Speaker MK Yuli-Yoel Edelstein at the Independence Day Torch Lighting Ceremony on Mt. Herzl April 15, 2013 Citizens of Israel, With the fall of darkness, we are in the difficult moments of the sharp transition from grief and loss to joyous celebration. In this rare hour: An hour of favor and togetherness. In this ultimate Israeli hour, a prayer and desire emerges from the bottom of our hearts: “Heavenly Father, Israel’s Rock and Redeemer, bless the State of Israel, the first flowering of our redemption. Shield it under the wings of your loving-kindness and spread over it the tabernacle of your peace.” Happy Independence Day Israel! Citizens of Israel, I was not born in this country, and her landscapes were not etched inside me during childhood. As a child, I never dreamed that the day would come that I’d be standing here, beside the grave of the Visionary of the State, as a representative of the Israeli Knesset. I never dreamed, not because I didn’t dare, and not because I was afraid. As a child, I was barely familiar with the State of Israel, and I never dreamed I’d be a part of her; therefore, I never knew such a dream was possible; that one could dream so far, so deep, so different. Lo and behold, today, the fifth of Iyar, 5773, I stand here, exactly twenty six years after the fifth of Iyar 5747, the day I was released from prison, and my heart is sighing, overflowing, full of prayer and gratitude.

  • Operation Pillar of Defense
    -Unclassified- -Unclassified- -Unclassified- -Unclassified- -Unclassified- Living under fire has become the routine reality for one million Israeli citizens over the last twelve years. When rockets are fired, citizens have fifteen seconds to reach shelters. Weapons smuggled from Iran, Libya, and Sudan via land and sea routes have accelerated the process of Gaza turning into a terror base. Over the past few months, the situation in Israel’s south has become intolerable. Hamas and other terrorist groups have been firing missiles indiscriminately towards civilian populations on a daily basis. No state would acquiesce to live in a reality in which its civilians are continuously attacked. The State of Israel has the legal right and the moral obligation to protect its citizens. Israel has demonstrated great restraint for a long period but cannot accept the recurring attacks on its citizens. -Unclassified- -Unclassified- In order to restore security to its citizens the IDF initiated on 14 November Operation “Pillar of Defense,” which began with airstrikes against Hamas leaders and weapons. The IDF’s actions are solely directed against military targets and terrorist activities, and are conducted according to the international law governing armed conflicts. The IDF is making the utmost effort to minimize harm to civilians. Hamas and other terrorist organizations, however, are flagrantly committing war crimes. They are firing missiles from civilian areas into civilian areas, thus involving civilians as both their shields and their targets. The IDF

  • Equity Impacts of Transportation Improvements on Core and Peripheral Cities
    Journal of Transport and Land Use 2:1 (Fall 2008) pp. 153–182 Available at http://jtlu.org Equity impacts of transportation improvements on core and peripheral cities Eran Leck Technion–Israel Institute of Technology a Shlomo Bekhor Technion–Israel Institute of Technology b Daniel Gat Technion–Israel Institute of Technologyc Abstract: is paper assesses the short-term impact of transportation improvements on the reduction of socio-economic disparities between core and peripheral cities using data extracted from the 1995 Israel Census. e methodology applied in the study estimates discrete choice models in order to identify key variables affecting commuting decisions. Policy simulations are employed to illustrate the effect of diminishing spatial friction on wage convergence between poor southern towns and affluent core cities. e empirical evidence suggests that transporta- tion improvements, especially in the form of introducing new rail links in underserved cities, could signicantly contribute to the alleviation of spatial wage disparities between core and peripheral cities. Keywords: Transportation improvements; Economic equity; Wage disparities; Discrete choice. 1 Introduction Recent years have seen a growing interest in the mechanisms linking a barrier-free geography and economic efficiency and equity. A common claim made by many ur- ban economists, regional planners and transportation scientists is that transportation improvements extend the borders of isolated labor markets, thus contributing to en- hanced welfare by widening the scope of opportunities for disadvantaged communities (Rietveld 1989; Garrison 1994, Banister and Licheld 1995; Fox 2001). a [email protected] b [email protected] c [email protected] Copyright 2008 Eran Leck, Shlomo Bekhor, and Daniel Gat.

  • Protective Edge
    Protective Edge JPost Editorial July 8, 2014 The government has a moral obligation to provide its citizens with basic security; indiscriminate rocket fire on civilians must not be tolerated Despite the military escalation with Gaza, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon had for the past several days articulated and carried out a policy of restraint. On Tuesday, the prime minister said the time had come to “take the gloves off” against Hamas, and Operation Protective Edge (Tsuk Eitan, in Hebrew) was launched. It aims to stop the rocket fire from the Strip and restore calm to the South. Unlike say prime minister Ehud Olmert in the 2006 Second Lebanon War, or current members of the security cabinet such as Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman and Economy Minister Naftali Bennett, Netanyahu has shown an inclination for containment and caution over retaliation in response to the provocations of Islamist terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah. His caution is not just, or principally, the result of pressure being applied by the administration of US President Barack Obama, though that is probably a factor. But while Israel has pledged to “answer quiet with quiet,” Hamas seems determined to make a bid for Palestinians’ and the Arab world’s empathy by dragging Israel into a military confrontation that already has turned bloody and might well be prolonged. Tens of thousands of Israelis in the South are living in fear as well over 100 rockets have hit Israel in recent days. The Iron Dome system has intercepted long-range Grad rockets over Ashdod and Netivot.
