  • Israel and the Occupied Territories 2015 Human Rights Report
    ISRAEL 2015 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Israel is a multiparty parliamentary democracy. Although it has no constitution, the parliament, the unicameral 120-member Knesset, has enacted a series of “Basic Laws” that enumerate fundamental rights. Certain fundamental laws, orders, and regulations legally depend on the existence of a “state of emergency,” which has been in effect since 1948. Under the Basic Laws, the Knesset has the power to dissolve the government and mandate elections. The nationwide Knesset elections in March, considered free and fair, resulted in a coalition government led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Civilian authorities maintained effective control over the security services. (An annex to this report covers human rights in the occupied territories. This report deals with human rights in Israel and the Israeli- occupied Golan Heights.) During the year according to Israeli Security Agency (ISA, also known as Shabak) statistics, Palestinians committed 47 terror attacks (including stabbings, assaults, shootings, projectile and rocket attacks, and attacks by improvised explosive devices (IED) within the Green Line that led to the deaths of five Israelis and one Eritrean, and two stabbing terror attacks committed by Jewish Israelis within the Green Line and not including Jerusalem. According to the ISA, Hamas, Hezbollah, and other militant groups fired 22 rockets into Israel and in 11 other incidents either planted IEDs or carried out shooting or projectile attacks into Israel and the Golan Heights.

  • Western Europe
    Western Europe Great Britain Domestic Affairs X HE YEAR 1973 has been dominated by a feeling that a turning point was reached in national life. Assumptions that supplies of cheap fuel were plentiful, that the steady growth of the economy was continuing, and that social cohesion would keep industrial disputes within limits which did not actually cripple the general community no longer seemed to hold true. This was despite—or perhaps because of—the fact that the government maintained its policy of economic expansion. It hoped thereby to promote industrial investment and break out of the "stop-go cycle." So far as unemployment was concerned, the policy was successful for, until December, the number of unemployed declined by an average of 20,000 per month. The strain of expansion was borne by the foreign trade balance. Thus an early indication of difficulties to come was the announcement in January that the 1972 overseas trade deficit had been £700 million, the worst on record. Another component was the deterioration of the labor situation. It began in a comparatively small way in February with strikes and industrial action by gas workers, civil servants, and nonmedical workers in the National Health Service. April marked the institution of Phase Two of the counterinflation policy, providing for limitations on dividends, profit margins, and wage increases, which was soon followed by a rise in the mortgage rate from 8.0-8.5 to 9.5 per cent, and to 11 per cent by September. In the meantime the Bank of England's minimum lending rate rose to 11.5 per cent in July to buttress spending abroad.
