  • How Time Flies When You're Israeli on the One Hand the Region Has Experienced a Sort of Baby Boom
    How Time Flies When You're Israeli On the one hand the region has experienced a sort of Baby Boom. On the other hand the number of divorces has increased at an irregular rate, especially in communities near the border. One year since Operation Protective Edge and in the Gaza Envelope settlements they're trying to recover—not a simple matter when there's unanimous agreement that the next round is just around the corner. onday. It's quiet, pretty and clean in the Gaza Envelope. The air is warm and M crisp. The fields bask in the sun, indifferent to what's happening around them. And that's totally fine, because nothing is happening. It's almost one year since Operation Protective Edge. How time flies when you're Israeli. Moti Madmoni of the Schmerling Meat Bar, located at Alonit Junction at the entrance to Gaza, begins to organize his day. During the war, soldiers, journalists and foreigners swarmed here as the skewers of meat flowed out continually. "We did pretty well during the war," he says with a smile. He then describes how hard it was to stand over the grill while his son, a Golani soldier, was fighting on the inside. "But I prefer the quiet, although I don't believe in it. Another round is just a matter of time. This isn't genuine peace—the next battle will come and we'll accept whatever comes with love. We're not leaving. We're here and that's it." I talk with everyone I see, the vast majority of whom don't want to be photographed or quoted by name.

  • The Denied Inheritance: Palestinian Land Ownership in Beer Sheba
    The Denied Inheritance: Palestinian Land Ownership in Beer Sheba Salman Abu Sitta Founder and President, Palestine Land Society, London Paper presented to the International Fact Finding Mission Initiated by RCUV, Beer Sheba Father: This land was Arab land before you are born. The fields and villages were theirs. But you do not see many of them now. There are only flourishing Jewish colonies where they used to be….because a great miracle happened to us… Daughter: How can one take land which belongs to someone else, cultivating that land and living off it? — There is nothing difficult about that. All you need is force. Once you have power you can. — But is there no law? Are there no courts in Israel? — Of course there are. But they only held up matters very briefly. The Arabs did go to our courts and asked for their land back from those who stole it. And the judges decided that yes, the Arabs are the legal owners of the fields they have tilled for generations. — Well then, if that is the decision of the judges… we are a law-abiding nation. — No, my dear, it is not quite like that. If the law decides against the thief, and the thief is very powerful, then he makes another law supporting his view. The father is Maariv founder and first editor, Dr. Israel Carlebach. This exchange was published in Maariv, 25th December 1953. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 The Original Sin It is impossible to examine the Palestinian land ownership in Israel outside the context of the general Palestine-Israel conflict.

  • Amos Brandeis Title of Speech: Planning for People and with Them
    Amos Brandeis Title of Speech: Planning for people and with them: Practical lessons from global experience Abstract: The most important key for successful planning is “Working with People”. The no. 1 challenge we face as planners is: “How can we do it?”. In this talk practical lessons drawn from an analysis of very diverse planning work carried out in many countries, will be demonstrated and discussed. The main conclusion is the essential role of successful collaboration with 4 main groups of people, i.e. clients, stakeholders, team members and the people, who actually live in the place. The best clients demonstrate real leadership, passion and involvement. The Alexander cross border river restoration project (1995), which is the only Israeli-Palestinian environmental collaboration with “on the ground results”, proves that no wall can be an obstacle for real leadership. The success of a project is very much dependent on collaboration with the main stakeholders. They should preferably all be involved from the beginning of the planning process. The plan should try to create a delicate balance between their needs and interests, but without losing our “professional integrity” – no “Jelly Plans”. Everybody wants to be part of a success story, and this means “let the ego go”. There is always enough credit for all. The plan for the largest Bedouin City in the world (winner of the 2013 ISOCARP Award for Excellence), demonstrates how Ministers, Prime Ministers, and even the President of State were involved. Urban and regional plans are prepared by interdisciplinary planning teams. The major challenge of the team leader is how to manage the team and integrate the enormous experience of these experts.

Institute for National Security Studies The Institute for National Security Studies (INSS), incorporating the Jaffee Center for Strategic Studies, was founded in 2006. The purpose of the Institute for National Security Studies is first, to conduct basic research that meets the highest academic standards on matters related to Israel’s national security as well as Middle East regional and international security affairs. Second, the Institute aims to contribute to the public debate and governmental deliberation of issues that are – or should be – at the top of Israel’s national security agenda. INSS seeks to address Israeli decision makers and policymakers, the defense establishment, public opinion makers, the academic community in Israel and abroad, and the general public. INSS publishes research that it deems worthy of public attention, while it maintains a strict policy of non-partisanship. The opinions expressed in this publication are the authors’ alone, and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Institute, its trustees, boards, research staff, or the organizations and individuals that support its research.

  • 35-Jerusalem-2018
    OFFICE OF THE GEOGRAPHER AND GLOBAL ISSUES DEPARTMENT OF STATE GUIDANCE BULLETIN No. 35 August 20,2018 JERUSALEM: MAPPING GUIDANCE On U.S. Government maps that show national capitals, Jerusalem is now to be shown as the capital of Israel. The point symbol for the capital is to be placed at the coordinates found in the GEOnet Names Server (http://geonarnes.nga.mil/namesg~: 31046' 35" N, 0350 13' 37" E. (See the map on the following page). When scale allows, the following disclaimer should appear on the map: "The United States recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital in 2017 without taking a position on the specific boundaries of Israeli sovereignty." This disclaimer replaces any former disclaimer concerning Jerusalem. On whether or not to show a capital city symbol on a map, common sense practice applies. For instance, it is not necessary to show a capital city symbol for a large scale map of the city of Jerusalem, nor is it necessary to show a capital symbol and label for Jerusalem if no other countries on the map show capital cities. Background: on December 6, 2017, President Trump formally recognized Jerusalem as the capital of the State of Israel. .: Lee R.

  • A Tradition Without a Past
    Chapter 8 A Tradition without a Past A new hope sprang up in the 1980s – the promise to realize and establish the Mizrahi communities in Israel as an integral part of Israeli society, destined to reclaim the focus of its oriental traditions and history and reclaim its shattered dignity: “Restoring the past glory.” This was the foundation for a new politi- cal party, Shas, comprised purely of Mizrahi members, or Sephardim, as they referred to themselves. The party ran its first campaign in the 1983 municipal elections with the intention of later running independently. Most members and supporters were descendants of North African families,1 spiritually awak- ened after the religious revival of the mid-‘70s and led by Rabbis Reuven Elbaz (Morocco) and Amnon Yitzhak (Yemen). They followed the Iraqi traditions and the teachings of the Rishon Lezion, the former Sephardi Chief Rabbi of Israel, and Rabbi Ovadia Yosef (Iraq). Shas was founded by Jerusalemite Sephardim in their 30s,2 men who had experienced firsthand cultural and social discrimina- tion from their Ashkenazi peers.3 The Mizrahim forged a new path, not to spite religion or the ultraorthodox Ashkenazi culture, but as a way of “politicizing integrative religious awareness […] with an electoral manifestation.”4 They claimed to have been disappointed and hurt by the Mizrahi wing of the Agudat Israel party (Hasidim), and later by the behavior of Lithuanian ultraorthodox leader Rabbi Schach towards Rabbi Ovadia Yosef. Their response was to form a party that would attract not only the Haredi-Sephardi
