  • Why Have You Despised the Word of God, to Do What Is Evil in His Sight
    Conclusions Thus, who is Goliath? “Why have you despised the word of God, to do what is evil in his sight? You have smitten Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and have taken his wife to be your wife” (2 Samuel 12:9). “Ultimately it is this fraternity that makes it possible, over the past two centuries, for so many millions of people, not so much to kill, as willingly to die for such limited imaginings” (Anderson, 1991, p.224). We started the journey of the representation of the IDF soldier in Israeli cinema at the time where there was no Israeli cinema, because there was no State of Israel. In the first decade of the 21st century, more than sixty years after the establishment of the state, several Israeli films won awards in film festivals all around the world, establishing the “new,” blossoming Israeli cinema. As we observed, contemporary Israeli cinema dismantles the equation created by the early Zionist Realist cinema of nationhood and masculinity. According to Gertz, this cinema does not obliterate the homogeneous Zionist identity; rather, it merges this identity into a broader dialogue of identities and voices: “Instead of simplistically replacing the Hebrew masculine identity with a feminine Jewish one, it integrates both identities and examines them inside and out. This cinema treats space similarly. Instead of replacing the Israeli space with an alternative space, it makes different spaces overlap and commingle. This cinema expresses the crisis in Israeli identity and the attempt to overcome it by combining and blending the spaces, nationalities, and genders created within it” (Gertz, 2003).

  • Israeli Petition on EU Labeling of Settlement Products by "Indication of Origin" Contributes Significantly to the Future of Israel and to Peace
    Israeli Petition on EU Labeling of Settlement Products by "Indication of Origin" Contributes Significantly to the Future of Israel and to Peace We, Israelis who care deeply about the future of our country, now more than ever, welcome the European Union’s decision to label products from Israeli settlements with correct indication of origin, and hope that other countries will follow suit. The international community distinguishing between Israel and the settlements is a step that could help promote a peace agreement, and it will also strengthen Israel’s overall status in the world and will undermine attempts to delegitimize Israel. This kind of distinction can also serve to reduce the current levels of tension, fear and despair, among both Israelis and Palestinians. This is an important first step. We call upon the EU and other world governments to take further steps in this direction, in order to differentiate between Israel within the 1967 borders and the occupied territories. Millions of Israelis and Palestinians may now hope for a better future if the International community continues to be involved, helping both sides to achieve a fair two-state solution, which will make possible the existence of both nations, the Israeli and the Palestinian, side by side, in peace and security.

    THE PALESTINE POSTER PROJECT ARCHIVES: ORIGINS, EVOLUTION, AND POTENTIAL A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Arab Studies By Daniel J. Walsh, B.S. Ed. Washington, DC December 19, 2011 THE PALESTINE POSTER PROJECT ARCHIVES: ORIGINS, EVOLUTION, AND POTENTIAL Daniel J. Walsh, B.S. Ed. Thesis Advisor: Rochelle A. Davis, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Focusing on the more than 6,000 posters now on view at the Palestine Poster Project Archives Website (“Website”), I will outline its evolution from a (failed) class project to online resource for viewing the poster art of the Palestinian-Zionist conflict (1897 – Present). I will discuss the major features of the Website, including Special Collections and Iconography and introduce the four Wellsprings of the Palestine poster: Zionist-Israeli (2,005 posters); Palestinian (2,514 posters); Arab/Muslim (331 posters); and International (1,195 posters). I will outline how I originally became aware of the Palestine poster genre and began building a personal collection that would eventually evolve into an archives (“Archives”). I will list some of the ways the Website is currently being used by artists and teachers and outline some of its planned features including as a clearinghouse for the display of new posters created in the context of Palestine poster contests. In my conclusion, I will argue that the Website of the Palestine Poster Project Archives opens a new “cultural position” (quoting Edward Said) from which Americans can dispassionately discuss the Palestinian-Zionist conflict.

  • Syjonizm: Nowe Spojrzenia
    Studia Judaica 18 (2015), nr 2 (36), s. 241–269 doi:10.4467/24500100STJ.15.011.4602 SYJONIZM: NOWE SPOJRZENIA Artur Kamczycki Herzl’s Image and the Messianic Idea Abstract: Theodor Herzl (1860–1904) is credited for laying foundations of the political Zionism the aim of which was to be recognizable on the literal as well as visual level. As a result of this postulate Zionism promoted itself by means of vari- ous visual arts and viewed them as an important Zionist medium. In this way, the image of Herzl became an incarnation of Zionism and an expression of its ideas. His figure was a multilayered carrier showing the ideology’s evolution and provid- ing the point of departure for many motifs and iconographic themes employed by the movement. One of them is the so-called Messianic theme that can be derived from the Zionist projection of the leader’s image. Although Herzl is not directly portrayed as the Messiah, there are certain elements implied in his images that drove the development of his Messianic myth. Herzl’s image, personality, politics and his ability to wake up the Jewish masses from a “deep slumber” by bringing up their “hidden powers,” all evoked associations with the Messiah. Mythical and idealistic elements as well as emotions connected with this figure were mostly focused around the Messianic message. Keywords: Theodor Herzl, Zionism, Messianism, Zionist iconography, Jewish art. The term ‘Zionism’ denotes a range of ideas referring to the concept of the return of all Jews from the Diaspora and the creation of a state in Eretz Israel that would correspond to the Promised Land.

  • Architects & Planners for Justice in Palestine
    Acting against international law, Israel continues to build illegal settlements on Palestinian territory. Israeli architects and planners have helped build settlements and towns on appropriated Palestinian land. Architects and Planners for Justice in Palestine (APJP) assert that the actions of Israeli architects and planners working in conjunction with this enterprise, are unethical, and contravene professional codes of conduct and UIA codes. It is time to challenge the IAUA and the Israeli government to end such projects. We have launched a petition to highlight 3 projects that typify the appropriation of Palestinian land aided by Israeli architects and other design professionals: In Silwan 88 Palestinian homes are under threat of demolition. This is part of a development for ultra-religious Israeli settlers on illegally annexed Palestinian land. The E1 Plan expands the largest illegal settlement, Ma’ale Adumim, to link it with metropolitan Jerusalem; it will dissect the northern and southern West Bank, destroying the possibility of a contiguous Palestinian state. Support the campaign to save Lifta, the ruins of a Palestinian village, from being converted into a development for wealthy American visitors, to the exclusion of the original Palestinian inhabitants, their heritage and memory. We call on the Israeli Association of United Architects to adhere to UIA Codes of Conduct, and end the participation of their members and fellow professionals in creating ‘facts on the ground’ to obliterate the idea of a viable future Palestinian state. If you would like to add your name to the petition or see the complete list of signatories, please go to www.apjp.org or email [email protected].

The vibrant, Free Speech, and colorful, sometimes rhetorical, often Dialogue About the beautiful messages appear not only in the Middle East Occupied Territories of Israel (where they are frequently torn down by the authorities) but also on streets and in subways around the world. This outspoken art form is actually an international phenomenon in which Palestinian artists have been joined by artists from Israel, America, Canada, Belgium, Switzerland, China, Cuba, and Venezuela expressing their feelings of solidarity and wishes for peace by creating posters. Dan Walsh, a political art director in Washington, D.C., who collects, translates, and conserves revolutionary posters and serves as a consultant to nonprofit social activist organizations, has made it his mission to inform more Americans about this surprising artistic collaboration, which he calls a “completely original political Esperanto.” But he keeps running into roadblocks. After 20 years of trying, he has been unable to find a major museum, gallery, university, or corporation to host a retrospective.
