A number of residents of Doha, including a 52-year-old woman identified as Amal Abdullah Saad, were reportedly detained after Israeli Occupation Army (IOA) stormed the village. Clashes broke out between local youth and Israeli soldiers. Israeli forces used live fire to disperse protesters, and several were injured. A fire erupted at the home of Muhammad Khaleel As Subani in the village after Israeli occupation Army (IOA) fired a sound bomb at it during the clashes. The IOA also surrounded a home owned by Saed family in the village, detonated drugs in one of the room, causing fire to erupt inside the room.

Mother's Schooling, Fertility, and Children's Education: Evidence from a Natural Experiment Victor Lavy and Alexander Zablotsky NBER Working Paper No. 16856 March 2011 JEL No. I1,J2 ABSTRACT This paper studies the effect of mothers‘ education on their fertility and their children‘s schooling. We base our evidence on a natural experiment that sharply reduced the cost of attending school and, as a consequence, significantly increased the education of affected cohorts. This natural experiment was the result of the de facto revocation in October 1963 of the military rule that had been imposed on Arabs in Israel, immediately creating free access to institutions of schooling.

  • News of Terrorism and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
    News of Terrorism and the Israeli- Palestinian Conflict June 18-24 This past week a missile fired from Syria hit a truck and killed an Israeli boy. Left: The wounded evacuated to a hospital (Tazpit.org.il, June 22, 2014). Right: Remains of the rocket and the damage done to the truck (IDF Spokesman, June 22, 2014). Overview IDF Operation Brothers' Keeper to find and return the three abducted Israeli youths has entered its 11th day, focusing on the region around Hebron. So far the youths are still missing. The IDF has also carried out extensive activities throughout Judea and Samaria in order to damage the Hamas infrastructure. So far more than 300 suspects have been detained, most of them (240) Hamas activists and operatives. Among the detainees are 56 terrorist operatives released in the Gilad Shalit prisoner exchange deal. Weapons have also been seized and institutions affiliated with Hamas have been closed. An Israeli boy was killed in the Golan Heights by a Syrian anti-tank missile. Israel holds the Syrian regime was responsible for the attack and the boy's death. In retaliation the Israeli Air Force struck Syrian army posts. Mahmoud Abbas, chairman of the Palestinian Author ity (PA), gave a speech in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, where he said that those responsible for the abduction "want to destroy us, and we [i.e., the PA] will settle accounts with them." At the same time the PA strongly criticized the IDF action in Judea and Samaria. In addition, there a certain amount of unrest was created in the Palestinian street, the result of friction with IDF forces.

  • 1 Land Day Keynote Speech March 30, 2014 St. Mary's Basilica, Livonia
    Land Day Keynote Speech March 30, 2014 St. Mary’s Basilica, Livonia. Ronald R. Stockton There are certain things I am not going to do tonight. I am not going to talk about history or the situation of the Palestinians. All of you know that better than I do. Nor am I going to discuss U. S. foreign policy. What I would like to discuss is how a political scientist sees this situation. I teach a course that spends about half of the semester looking at ethnic conflicts and how they work themselves out. It’s not a pretty picture but I want to share with you the patterns we have discovered. If you asked me to define the core issue in this conflict from a Palestinian perspective, I would say land. But two other issues are sometimes overlooked. The first is the protection of Islam. When the Al Aqsa Intifada began in 2000, there was a poll that asked Palestinians what they thought was the key issue in that uprising. Many mentioned the land, but an even greater number mentioned that Islam was under threat. I think we should not forget that. Many people not willing to die for a piece of land might be willing to die to preserve their religion. The second issue is dignity. Once I went from Ramallah to Jerusalem and passed through one of those check points where people are treated like animals. Americans usually get a pass on those places but there I was with long lines of people, twisting through those wire cages.

We open our hearts and ask their forgiveness for some small incident that may be etched in our memories. Though it may be incidental, and the person may not have even been aware of it, it gnaws at us, and we plead for forgiveness and we feel better admitting truths to ourselves and righting ourselves emotionally. We seek advice from our loved ones for difficult problems and though they physically cannot speak to us we know how they thought and what is right to do in any given situation. Yom Kippur and the Yizkor prayer is the time when we pray to God and ask forgiveness for straying from the path of Torah. It is the time when we pledge to do better both personally and spiritually.

  • 1948 Arab‒Israeli
    1948 Arab–Israeli War 1 1948 Arab–Israeli War מלחמת or מלחמת העצמאות :The 1948 Arab–Israeli War, known to Israelis as the War of Independence (Hebrew ,מלחמת השחרור :, Milkhemet Ha'atzma'ut or Milkhemet HA'sikhror) or War of Liberation (Hebrewהשחרור Milkhemet Hashikhrur) – was the first in a series of wars fought between the State of Israel and its Arab neighbours in the continuing Arab-Israeli conflict. The war commenced upon the termination of the British Mandate of Palestine and the Israeli declaration of independence on 15 May 1948, following a period of civil war in 1947–1948. The fighting took place mostly on the former territory of the British Mandate and for a short time also in the Sinai Peninsula and southern Lebanon.[1] ., al-Nakba) occurred amidst this warﺍﻟﻨﻜﺒﺔ :Much of what Arabs refer to as The Catastrophe (Arabic The war concluded with the 1949 Armistice Agreements. Background Following World War II, on May 14, 1948, the British Mandate of Palestine came to an end. The surrounding Arab nations were also emerging from colonial rule. Transjordan, under the Hashemite ruler Abdullah I, gained independence from Britain in 1946 and was called Jordan, but it remained under heavy British influence. Egypt, while nominally independent, signed the Anglo-Egyptian Treaty of 1936 that included provisions by which Britain would maintain a garrison of troops on the Suez Canal. From 1945 on, Egypt attempted to renegotiate the terms of this treaty, which was viewed as a humiliating vestige of colonialism. Lebanon became an independent state in 1943, but French troops would not withdraw until 1946, the same year that Syria won its independence from France.

    Hegemonic (Israeli) Time and Minority (Palestinian) Space: Sayed Kashua’s Chronotopic Approach in Let It Be Morning Sadia Agsous École des hautes études en sciences sociales abstract: Sayed Kashua, a Palestinian writer in Israel who has published novels exclusively in Hebrew, was celebrated as a successful writer and journalist in the Hebrew literary field. If the author’s usage of Hebrew and his novels were examined from an Israeli and a Jewish perspective and from the prospects of minority speech acts, these critics did, however, situate his literature within the immediate political context, that of the impossible situation of Palestinians in Israel. This article reads his second from a different perspective and considers Kashua’s ,(ויהי בוקר) novel, Let It Be Morning literary strategy that consists in transforming a futuristic and allegorist perspective into a chronotope set between hegemonic (Israeli) time and minority (Palestinian) space. This novel highlights, between text and context, different visions of the future: a dystopian situation reflecting both a disastrous outcome of the Zionist wing call- ing for the transfer of the Palestinians and an internal conflict between Palestinians (fitnah); the utopian vision of the writer, who used his writing in Hebrew to create a hybrid space of negotiation with the Hebrew reader and therefore suggesting literature as a way to prevent dystopia. This article emphasizes a futuristic storytelling from its content to its form used by Kashua as a literary strategy to express the impossibility of a Palestinian voice, his voice, in Hebrew fiction. dibur literary journal Issue 6, Fall 2018 Visions of the Future 20 dibur a palestinian hybrid text, between a dystopian future and the utopia of the writer At long last, the Zionist dream is coming true.
