TURMOIL IN UNIFIED GERMANY: ASYLUM-SEEKERS BECOME THE NATION'S SCAPEGOAT I. INTRODUCTION On November 9, 1989, the Berlin Wall fell, symbolizing the end of a divided German state. The long dreamed-of unification finally came to its fruition. However, the euphoria experienced in 1989 proved ephemeral. In the past four years, Germans have faced the bitter ramifications of unity. The affluent, capitalist West was called on to assimilate and re-educate the repressed communist East. Since unification, Easterners have been plagued by unemployment and a lack of security and identity, while Westerners have sacrificed the many luxuries to which they have grown accustomed. A more sinister consequence of unity, however, is the emergence of a violent right-wing nationalist movement. Asylum- seekers and foreigners have become the target of brutal attacks by extremists who advocate a homogenous Germany.

  • Profiles of Peace
    Profiles of Peace Forty short biographies of Israeli and Palestinian peace builders who have struggled to end the occupation and build a just future for both Palestinians and Israelis. Haidar Abdel Shafi Palestinian with a long history of working to improve the health and social conditions of Palestinians and the creation of a Palestinian state. Among his many accomplishments, Dr. Abdel Shafi has been the director of the Red Crescent Society of Gaza, was Chairman of the first Palestinian Council in Gaza, and took part in the Madrid Peace Talks in 1991. Dr. Haidar Abdel Shafi is one of the most revered persons in Palestine, whose long life has been devoted to the health and social conditions of his people and to their aspirations for a national state. Born in Gaza in 1919, he has spent most of his life there, except for study in Lebanon and the United States. He has been the director of the Red Crescent Society in Gaza and has served as Commissioner General of the Palestinian Independent Commission for Citizens Rights. His passion for an independent state of Palestine is matched by his dedication to achieve unity among all segments of the Palestinian community. Although Gaza is overwhelmingly religiously observant, he has won and kept the respect and loyalty of the people even though he himself is secular. Though nonparti- san he has often been associated with the Palestinian left, especially with the Palestinian Peoples Party (formerly the Palestinian Communist Party). A mark of his popularity is his service as Chairman of the first Palestinian Council in Gaza (1962-64) and his place on the Executive Committee of “There is no problem of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) (1964-65).

  • 1 Israel Studies, 8:1, Spring 2003 INTERVIEW with ABBA EBAN, 11
    1 Israel Studies, 8:1, Spring 2003 INTERVIEW WITH ABBA EBAN, 11 MARCH 1976 Avi Shlaim INTRODUCTION Abba Eban was often referred to as the voice of Israel. He was one of Israel’s most brilliant, eloquent, and skillful representatives abroad in the struggle for independence and in the first 25 years of statehood. He was less effective in the rough and tumble of Israeli domestic politics because he lacked the common touch and, more importantly, because he lacked a power base of his own. Nevertheless, he played a major role in the formulation and conduct of Israel’s foreign policy during a crucial period in the country’s history. Born in South Africa, on 2 February 1915, Eban grew up in London and gained a degree in Oriental languages from Cambridge University. During the Second World War he served with British military intelligence in Cairo and Jerusalem and reached the rank of major. After the war he joined the political department of the Jewish Agency. In 1949 he became head of the Israeli delegation to the United Nations. The following year he was appointed ambassador to the United States and he continued to serve in both posts until 1959. On his return to Israel, Eban was elected to the Knesset on the Mapai list and kept his seat until 1988. He joined the government in 1960 as minister without portfolio and later became minister of education and culture. Three years later he was promoted to the post of deputy by Prime Minister Levi Eshkol. In 1966 Eban became foreign minister and he retained this post after Golda Meir succeeded Levi Eshkol in 1969.

    © 2008 bei kritiknetz.de, Hrsg. Heinz Gess, ISSN 1866-4105 „Die schrillste Anti-Israel-Fanfare in Deutschland“ ULRICH W. SAHM – Jerusalem, 20. Juli 2009 – Der Kölner Schriftsteller Ralph Giodano protestiert „aufs Schärfste“ gegen die Verleihung des Bundesverdienstkreuzes an die in Tübingen lebende israelische Anwältin und „Menschenrechtsaktivisten“ Felicia Langer. Ein ebenso geehrter israelischer Reise- führer, Motke Schomrat, hat angekündigt, dass er mit Pressebegleitung demonstrativ sein Bundesverdienstkreuz bei der deutschen Botschaft in Tel Aviv zurückgeben wolle. Deidre Berger, Direktorin der Vertretung des American Jewish Committee in Berlin, wolle ebenfalls ihr Bundesverdienstkreuz abgeben, aus Protest gegen den Beschluss von Bundespräsident Horst Köhler, die „Israel-Kritikerin“ Langer zu ehren. Per Fax schrieb Giordano an einige Bekannte, dass die Ehrung Langers ihn in „einen schweren Konflikt“ stürze. „Niemand hat in den letzten 25 Jahren mit einer an Blindheit grenzenden Einseitigkeit Israel mehr geschadet, als diese angebliche Men- schenrechtsanwältin; niemand ist jener verbreiteten Gesinnung, sich vom eigenen Schulddruck durch Kritik an Israel zu entlasten, so weit entgegengekommen, wie sie; niemand hat die ,,Pathologie der Umarmung" - ,,Hie die bösen Israeli - da die guten Palästinenser" - so konsequent durchgehalten wie diese schrillste Anti-Israel-Fanfare in Deutschland“, schreibt Giordano. Folgt man der Schule Felicitas Langers, so Giordano weiter in seinem Brief, finde der Nahostkonflikt in einem quasi luftleeren Raum

  • CAUTION: ZIONISM! Essays on the Ideology, Organisation and Practice of Zionism
    CAUTION: ZIONISM! Essays on the Ideology, Organisation and Practice of Zionism Yuri Ivanov Moscow Progress Publishers 1970 Contents Preface I Myth and Reality II "A Time to Cast Stones and a Time to Gather Stones Together" III Roofless Labyrinth IV Crossroads V Caution: Zionism! To fellow countrymen and foreign comrades whose kind advice has been of such help. Yuri Ivanov Preface Gone are the days when the enemies of the young Soviet republic fervently awaited the collapse of the world's first workers' and peasants' state. The Land of Soviets proved its viability in the face of armed intervention and its magnificent performance in the life- and-death struggle against the nazi hordes already belongs to history. Gone, indeed, are many of the illusions harboured by the enemies of communism, but not their hatred and their intention to continue the struggle with all the means that remain at their disposal. Lenin held that it was the fundamental duty of the Soviet press to make a concrete analysis of the forces acting against communism, however secondary they might appear at first glance. This book makes a study of modern Zionism, one of the most tenacious, though veiled varieties of anti-communism. Meir Vilner, Secretary of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Israel, wrote in a letter to Soviet journalists in January 1968: "Zionism is, alas, a 'forgotten' question but nonetheless a most actual one. ." How right he is! For a long time many champions of Zionism were sparing no efforts to make Zionism appear nothing more than an obsolete term.
