Six Mois De Guerre Civile En Libye
ÉTUDES, REPORTAGES, RÉFLEXIONS SIX MOIS DE GUERRE CIVILE EN LIBYE ■ ADRIEN JAULMES ■ ls étaient descendus sans armes dans les rues en février der- nier pour manifester contre le régime de Kadhafi . Ils étaient Iétudiants, informaticiens, coiffeurs, employés, footballeurs, réclamant un peu plus de liberté, comme leurs voisins tunisiens et égyptiens. Six mois plus tard, les manifestants sont devenus des gué- rilleros, et paradent dans Tripoli les armes à la main, juchés sur des pick-up équipés de mitrailleuses lourdes et de canons sans recul, tirant en l’air des rafales de joie. La révolution libyenne a commencé comme en Tunisie et en Égypte, par des manifestations non violentes. Mais au lieu de déboucher sur la chute rapide du dictateur, elle a tourné à la guerre civile, et le printemps libyen à l’été meurtrier. Au lieu de quelques semaines de protestations, il a fallu aux Libyens six mois de combats et l’appui aérien des Occidentaux pour se débarrasser enfi n d’un dictateur aussi violent que tenace. La Libye sort profondément bouleversée de ces six mois de guerre civile.

Military Resources in Eretz Israel for the Genealogical Sleuth Rose Avigael Feldman Israel Genealogical Society [email protected]
Military Resources in Eretz Israel for the Genealogical Sleuth Rose Avigael Feldman Israel Genealogical Society [email protected] Though Eretz Israel has been the crossroads of invasions and the arena for wars for thousands of years, available documents that can be of help to genealogical sleuths start with the period of World War I. With the growth of the Jewish settlement and its identity as a new independent factor in the region, the Jewish population organized for its own defense and volunteered for the British army. The lecture will be a survey of the materials now available in various archives in Israel, including the Central Zionist Archives, the Hagana Historical Archives, the Museum of the Brigades and others. During the period of the Ottoman Empire, most Jews living in Eretz Israel did not have Turkish citizenship. There were a number of efforts made with the first and second aliyah (waves of immigration) to Eretz Israel, to organize themselves into groups of defense for the communities. Two of the groups were the Shomer and Bar Giora. http://www.mod.gov.il/pages/heritage/hashomer.asp (Hebrew website of the Hashomer museum) During the period of the First World War, over 11,000 Jews had reached Alexandra, Egypt by September 13, 1915. Some were refugees from Eretz Israel and others were expelled from Eretz Israel by the Ottoman government. The Ottoman government also expelled additional citizens from cities around Eretz Israel as the battle lines with the British moved across Eretz Israel. One clandestine group which was formed within Eretz Israel was NILI, which collaborated with the British. -
Reports of the Jewish Agency Executives Submitted to the Twenty-Second Zionist Congress at Basle, Excerpts Jewish Agency 1946
REPORTS OF THE JEWISH AGENCY EXECUTIVES SUBMITTED TO THE TWENTY-SECOND ZIONIST CONGRESS AT BASLE, EXCERPTS JEWISH AGENCY 1946 POLITICAL DEPARTMENT INTRODUCTION The period which has elapsed since the last Zionist Congress has been the most tragic in Jewish history. It has also been the most disastrous in the annals of modern Zionism. The last Congress met under the shadow of the Palestine White Paper of May, 1939. It broke up on the eve of the Second World War. Ominous anticipations filled the hearts of the delegates as they sped home, yet none could have foreseen the ghastly catastrophe that was to follow. In the course of a few years the bulk of European Jewry which, for fifteen centuries had been the principal center of Jewish life, was wiped out of existence. Entire communities with their ancient traditions, their synagogues, schools, colleges, libraries and communal institutions were destroyed overnight as by a tornado. A Satanic design to eradicate Jewish life for ever from the face of Europe led to the wholesale extermination of Jewish children. Of an estimated total of several million Jewish children on the continent of Europe before the War, only some tens of thousands are alive today. In this colossal tragedy, the Palestine white Paper played a significant part. It is not suggested that all the 6,000,000 Jews who were killed in Europe during the war could have been saved if there had been no White Paper, but there can be no doubt that many thousands of those who perished in the gas chambers of Poland would be alive today if immigration to Palestine had been regulated, as formerly, by the principle of the country’s absorptive capacity and had not been subjected to the arbitrary numerical restrictions imposed under the White Paper. -

The Kibbutz. Awakening from Utopia
The Israeli kibbutz, the twentieth century’s most interesting social experiment, is in the throes of change. Instrumental in establishing the State of Israel, defending its borders, creating its agriculture and industry, and setting its social norms, the kibbutz is the only commune in history to have played a central role in a nation’s life. Over the years, however, Israel has developed from an idealistic pioneering community into a materialistic free market society. Consequently, the kibbutz has been marginalized and is undergoing a radical transformation. The egalitarian ethic expressed in the phrase “From each according to ability, to each according to need” is being replaced by the concept of reward for effort. Cooperative management is increasingly giving way to business administration. “The kibbutz movement produced a miracle. Yet even miracles cannot ignore changing times. Having had the privilege of being a kibbutz member for many years, I know that the savor of the experience never fades. Daniel Gavron has written an amazing story about a living wonder.” — Shimon Peres “An important historical study, a book that will be read and reread for years to come. I know of no book that equals it as a study of the kibbutz movement. No student of Israel should be without this book. It is inspiring and quite wonderful.” — Howard Fast Daniel Gavron THE KIBBUTZ Awakening from Utopia Digital edition: C. Carretero Spread: Confederación Sindical Solidaridad Obrera http://www.solidaridadobrera.org/ateneo_nacho /biblioteca.html For the kibbutznik, of whom too much was always expected.
