  • The Next Jerusalem

    The Next Jerusalem

    The Next Introduction1 Jerusalem: Since the beginning of the Israeli-Palestinian Potential Futures conflict, the city of Jerusalem has been the subject of a number of transformations that of the Urban Fabric have radically changed its urban structure. Francesco Chiodelli Both the Israelis and the Palestinians have implemented different spatial measures in pursuit of their disparate political aims. However, it is the Israeli authorities who have played the key role in the process of the “political transformation” of the Holy City’s urban fabric, with the occupied territories of East Jerusalem, in particular, being the object of Israeli spatial action. Their aim has been the prevention of any possible attempt to re-divide the city.2 In fact, the military conquest in 1967 was not by itself sufficient to assure Israel that it had full and permanent The wall at Abu Dis. Source: Photo by Federica control of the “unified” city – actually, the Cozzio (2012) international community never recognized [ 50 ] The Next Jerusalem: Potential Futures of the Urban Fabric the 1967 Israeli annexation of the Palestinian territories, and the Palestinians never ceased claiming East Jerusalem as the capital of a future Palestinian state. So, since June 1967, after the overtly military phase of the conflict, Israeli authorities have implemented an “urban consolidation phase,” with the aim of making the military conquests irreversible precisely by modifying the urban space. Over the years, while there have been no substantial advances in terms of diplomatic agreements between the Israelis and the Palestinians about the status of Jerusalem, the spatial configuration of the city has changed constantly and quite unilaterally.
  • The Mount Scopus Enclave, 1948–1967

    The Mount Scopus Enclave, 1948–1967

    Yfaat Weiss Sovereignty in Miniature: The Mount Scopus Enclave, 1948–1967 Abstract: Contemporary scholarly literature has largely undermined the common perceptions of the term sovereignty, challenging especially those of an exclusive ter- ritorial orientation and offering a wide range of distinct interpretations that relate, among other things, to its performativity. Starting with Leo Gross’ canonical text on the Peace of Westphalia (1948), this article uses new approaches to analyze the policy of the State of Israel on Jerusalem in general and the city’s Mount Scopus enclave in 1948–1967 in particular. The article exposes tactics invoked by Israel in three different sites within the Mount Scopus enclave, demilitarized and under UN control in the heart of the Jordanian-controlled sector of Jerusalem: two Jewish in- stitutions (The Hebrew University of Jerusalem and Hadassah hospital), the Jerusa- lem British War Cemetery, and the Palestinian village of Issawiya. The idea behind these tactics was to use the Demilitarization Agreement, signed by Israel, Transjor- dan, and the UN on July 7, 1948, to undermine the status of Jerusalem as a Corpus Separatum, as had been proposed in UN Resolution 181 II. The concept of sovereignty stands at the center of numerous academic tracts written in the decades since the end of the Cold War and the partition of Europe. These days, with international attention focused on the question of Jerusalem’s international status – that is, Israel’s sovereignty over the town – there is partic- ularly good reason to examine the broad range of definitions yielded by these discussions. Such an examination can serve as the basis for an informed analy- sis of Israel’s policy in the past and, to some extent, even help clarify its current approach.

Her book was inspired by a desire to prove (or disprove) Dr. Ernest Martin’s research in The Temples That Jerusalem Forgot. Ms. Sams wrote a second book in 2017, The Jerusalem Temple Mount: A Compendium of Ancient Descriptions expanding the argument in her first book, itemizing and analyzing 375 ancient descriptions of the Temple, Fort Antonia, and environs, all confirming a Gihon location for God’s Temples.1 Her books and articles greatly advance Dr. Martin’s arguments. David Sielaff, ASK Editor Marilyn Sams: The siege of Titus has been the subject of many books and papers, but always from the false perspective of the Jerusalem Temple Mount’s misidentification.2 The purpose of this paper is to illuminate additional aspects of the siege, in order to show how they cannot reasonably be applied to the current models of the temple and Fort Antonia, but can when the “Temple Mount” is identified as Fort Antonia. Conflicts Between the Rebellious Leaders Prior to the Siege of Titus A clarification of the definition of “Acra” is crucial to understanding the conflicts between John of Gischala and Simon of Giora, two of the rebellious [Jewish] faction leaders, who divided parts of Jerusalem 1 Her second book shows the impossibility of the so-called “Temple Mount” and demonstrate the necessity of a Gihon site of the Temples.

    1 2017 Annual Report 2017 Had the Dubious Distinction Of

    . 2017 Annual Report 2017 had the dubious distinction of marking the 50th anniversary of Israel’s occupation of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip. After half a century, during which Israel’s policies have created profound changes that indicate long-term intentions, it is clear that this reality cannot be viewed as temporary. In 2017, B'Tselem continued to document and publicize human rights violations, while exposing the injustice, violence and dispossession at the very core of the occupation regime, challenging its legitimacy in Israel and abroad, and helping to expedite its end. 1 Table of Contents 2017 in Numbers 3 Executive Director's Note 5 Marking the 50th year of the Occupation 6 Photography Exhibit 6 Media Surrounding the 50th Anniversary 8 Reports Published in 2017 8 Getting Off Scot-Free 8 Made in Israel: Exploiting Palestinian Land for Treatment of Israeli Waste 9 Unprotected: Detention of Palestinian Teenagers in East Jerusalem 9 Fatalities 10 Trigger-Happy Responses to Clashes, Stone-throwing Incidents, Demonstrations or Evading Arrest 10 A Shoot-to-Kill Approach in Cases Defined as Assault 10 Security Forces Violence Against Palestinians 11 The Gaza Strip – A Decade of Siege 11 Separating Families 12 Gaza Executions 12 Prisoners and Detainees 13 Hunger Strike 13 Minor detainees 13 Communities Facing Demolitions and Displacement in Area C 14 Communities Under Imminent Threat of Transfer 14 An Increasingly Coercive Environment 15 Demolition Data 15 Demolitions in East Jerusalem 16 Batan al-Hawa -
