  • Introduction

    Introduction

    Introduction IN THE COURSE of writing this book, I passed a small milestone in my life. Twenty years ago, while researching my doctoral dissertation on the theory of Zionism, I came across a newly published book on the Israel- Palestine conflict: From Time Immemorial: The Origins of the Arab- Jewish Conflict over Palestine by Joan Peters.1 Promising to revolution- ize our understanding of the conflict, the book was adorned on the back cover with glowing praise from the Who’s Who of American Arts and Letters (Saul Bellow, Elie Wiesel, Barbara Tuchman, Lucy Dawid- owicz, and others), and it went on to garner scores of reviews in the mainstream media ranging from ecstasy to awe. Its first edition, eventu- ally going into seven hardback printings, became a national best seller. The central thesis of Peters’s book, apparently supported by nearly two thousand notes and a recondite demographic study, was that Palestine had been virtually empty on the eve of Zionist colonization and that, after Jews made the deserted parts of Palestine they settled bloom, Arabs from neighboring states and other parts of Palestine migrated to the Jewish areas and pretended to be indigenous. Here was the, as it 1. New York: Harper and Row, 1984. 1 2 INTRODUCTION were, scientific proof that Golda Meir had been right after all: there was no such thing as Palestinians. As it happened, From Time Immemorial was a colossal hoax. Cited sources were mangled, key numbers in the demographic study falsified, and large swaths plagiarized from Zionist propaganda tracts. Docu- menting the hoax and the rather more onerous challenge of publicizing these findings in the media proved to be a turning point for me.

    BENJAMIN B. DEVAN NEW ATHEISTS ON GENESIS 1-11 AND 19 Benjamin B. DeVan University of Durham, Department of Theology and Religion, Durham, UK. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: When the Neo- or “New Atheist” publishing frenzy climaxed with Richard Dawkins’ The God Delusion, Daniel C. Dennett’s Breaking the Spell, Sam Harris’s The End of Faith, Christopher Hitchens’ god is not Great and subsequent titles; New Atheists repeatedly denounced the Bible as dangerously false, suppressive to scientific inquiry, and as inculcating and promoting problematic, contemptible, even abhorrent moral values. The Genesis 1-11 and 19 Creation, Noah, and Lot narratives persist among the New Atheists’ favorite targets. Heretofore there has been no systematic examination of New Atheist treatments of Genesis generally or Genesis 1-11 and 19 particularly. This article scrutinizes leading New Atheist interpretations of Genesis 1-11 and 19 articulated by Richard Dawkins, Daniel C. Dennett, Sam Harris, and Christopher Hitchens. Part one documents these New Atheist renderings of Genesis 1-11 and 19 through the entire corpus of their published books. Part two synthesizes, applies, and extends relevant Genesis 1-11 and 19 scholarship to appraise and respond to the most serious New Atheist allegations, concluding that a more rigorous analysis of Genesis 1-11 and 19 nullifies and potentially reverses New Atheist criticisms.

    Transcript the Twilight Zone Between Arabs and Israelis Presenter: Kai

    Transcript The Twilight Zone Between Arabs and Israelis Presenter: Kai Bird, Gideon Levy, Adam LeBor, Fady Joudah, Navtej Sarna, and Hardeep Singh Puri. Thank you. Hardeep Singh Puri: Good afternoon. I'm delighted to be moderating a panel of such eminence and such distinguished people who have not only an intimate knowledge of what's happening in that part of the world between Arabs and Israelis, and between the Israelis and the Palestinians in particular. I don't want to stand between you and the free-flowing conversation we will have amongst ourselves, but in order to provide a perspective, I would, with your permission, just take a minute or two, to outline how I see the state of play. To start with, I think Twilight Zone is an apt term to describe what is happening. We have a situation when the negotiating process, I think, suffered a severe blow after the breakout of hostilities between the Israelis and Hamas in the summer of 2014. The last successful attempt at negotiations was over 20 years ago, the Oslo Accords. For the young population on both sides, Oslo is only a memory, if one at all. Since then, violence levels have escalated, and more important, from my point of view, there seems to be a deep skepticism both amongst the Israelis and the Palestinians on the prospects of negotiations. Having had the privilege of serving on the Security Council, I am of the firm view that the core, or the essential core of the problem, is the policy of settlements. The issue came before the Security Council in a Resolution, which was then brought by the one Arab state which was serving on the Council by Lebanon, and all 14, I would say, all 15 members of the Security Council were, I think, on the same page.

Hannah Arendt and Natives as Extras: Towards an Ontology of Palestinian Presence? Abstract The essay grew out of Hannah Arendt’s reflection on the olesr and uses of the mask, a meditation on the ontology of the transient public figure or persona vs. one that restitutes the person to the unadulterated Selbstdenken dimension of the Epicurean philosopher-in-hiding. The author individuates in the resulting caesura between the donning and the taking off of the mask the primal source of that paradox in Hanna Arendt’s political behavior that alternately compelled her to confront the ontological presence of the Palestinian people, and made her withdraw into philosophical hiding without ever really coming to terms with it.

Our campaign is in response to a call issued by members of the Palestinian civil society in 2005 asking “people of conscience” from around the globe to pressure the state of Israel to halt violations of international law through a movement to Boycott, Divest and Sanction (BDS) the state of Israel. Inspired by the South African anti-apartheid movement, BDS is a non-violent movement that urges individuals, organizations, and countries to put economic pressure on the Israeli government until it recognizes and respects the fundamental rights of Palestinians. BDS does not propose a political solution, rather it brings awareness to Israel’s discrimination against its Arab-Palestinian citizens and devastating occupation policy. Since 1967, the Israeli government has demolished over 48,000 Palestinian homes in the West Bank to clear land for the construction of Israeli settlements, which has been deemed a form of collective punishment and a flagrant violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention. Palestinians protesting for their right of return are continuously shot at from across the border fence in the besieged Gaza Strip.

    THE New York Times DISTORTS THE PALESTINIAN STRUGGLE ACASE STUDY OF ANTI-PALESTINIAN BIAS IN AMERICAN NEWS COVERAGE OF THE FIRST AND SECOND PALESTINIAN INTIFADAS PREPRINT, SUBMITTED TO THE Journal of Palestine Studies Holly M. Jackson Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, MA 02139 [email protected] May 19, 2021 (last modified May 24, 2021) ABSTRACT In this study, I prove a history of bias against Palestine in a newspaper of international importance — the New York Times — during the First and Second Palestinian Intifadas. Using state-of-the-art natural language processing toolkits as well as a regression model with over 90% accuracy based on a carefully-validated word bank, I analyze over 33,000 NYT articles for (1) their use of active/passive voice and (2) the objectivity, tone, and violent sentiment of the language used. I follow up my quantitative analysis with a qualitative validation step, analyzing biased articles in each period. In conjunction with historical context, I show that anti-Palestinian bias persisted disproportionately in the New York Times during both periods and, in fact, worsened from the First Intifada to the Second. Finally, I connect my findings to current events in Palestine and challenge readers to be critical of the sources they reference. 1 Introduction In this study, I will identify bias against Palestine in a newspaper of international importance – the New York Times – as a case study in the scope of a larger problem of anti-Palestinian bias in American news coverage. I will center my analysis on two important periods in the modern history of the Palestinian struggle – the First and Second Intifadas – both marked by periods of rapid change and an increase in global conversation about Israel and Palestine.
