It is located near the southern area of the Jordan valley. The salt-rich Dead Sea is the lowest point on the earth's surface, being 400 meters below sea level. The air around the Dead Sea is unpolluted, dry, and pollen-free with low humidity, providing a naturally relaxing environment. The air in the region has a high mineral content due to the constant evaporation of the mineral rich water. 3. The Dead Sea comes in the list of the world's greatest landmarks, and is sometimes considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World. People usually miss out on this as they do not realize the importance of its unique contents. The Dead Sea has twenty-one minerals which have been found to give nourishment to the skin, stimulate the circulatory system, give a relaxed feeling, and treat disorders of the metabolism and rheumatism and associate pains. The Dead Sea mud has been used by people all over the world for beauty purposes.

  • Update on Conflict and Diplomacy 16 NOVEMBER 2017–15 FEBRUARY 2018
    Update on Conflict and Diplomacy 16 NOVEMBER 2017–15 FEBRUARY 2018 COMPILED BY PAUL KAROLYI This update is a summary of bilateral, multilateral, regional, and international events affecting the Palestinians and Israel. More than 100 print, wire, television, and online sources providing U.S., Israeli, Arab, and international independent and government coverage of unfolding events are surveyed to compile the quarterly Update. The most relevant sources are cited in JPS’s Chronology section, which tracks events day by day. JPS Chronologies are archived on the JPS website at www.palestine-studies.org. Highlights of the Quarter: Nearly every major action within Palestine and Israel this quarter is predicated on U.S. president Donald Trump’s pledges to move the U.S. embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and to formally recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, reversing decades of U.S. policy. The decision provokes an international backlash, sparks a wave of protests and clashes in the occupied Palestinian territories, compromises U.S. diplomatic efforts, and encourages Israel to further advance settlement and annexation plans. While the Israelis celebrate Trump’s decision, the Palestinians argue that it illustrates Washington’s pro-Israel bias and refuse to accept the United States as the sole mediator in any future peace talks. Outraged, Trump orders punitive cuts to U.S. humanitarian aid dedicated to Palestinian refugees, further undercutting any peace initiative, which advisors insist is still underway. The Palestinians begin pursuing a new, multilateral framework to continue the peace process. Amid these developments, the Palestinian national reconciliation process stalls once again.

The garage workers consist of Reuven’s beautiful daughter Mali, his violent and distant son Meir, as well as a young Palestinian, Toufik. No one suspects that Mali and Toufik have been in love for years, and that Mali is pregnant with Toufik’s child. As the two lovers secretly make their wedding arrangements, tension steadily builds between Toufik and Meir, who openly voices his disdain and prejudices about Arabs. As these relationships continue to intensify, emotions begin to boil, resulting in an astonishing conclusion.

  • French Judaism Foundation Editorial Note from 1 the Chairman Message from 3 the Managing Director
    DEUX MILLE SEIZE ANNUAL REPORT TWO THOUSAND AND SIXTEEN French Judaism Foundation Editorial Note from 1 the Chairman Message from 3 the Managing Director 4 Moral report 12 Financial Report Sheltered Foundations 52 30 Grants This has once again been a year of contrasts, largely characterised by the intellectual and artistic vitality of our community, its renewed commitment and engagement with regard to solidarity, while standing firm in the face of widespread insecurity and fear. It is true, you may well say, that it is reflected in the very history of our people that we have learned over the centuries to live with joy and hope, as much as with fear and fatalism. Let us acknowledge this extraordinary resistance of the Jewish people who refuse to fall victim to the evil from which it remains under constant attack, always knowing to reach unto the depths of their inner strength, and draw upon their faith, and their humour, their immense creativity and self - sacrifice along with the commitment towards overcoming difficulties and violence and continuing to move forward, strong and united, towards their future. "Never giving up" could indeed be the philosophy that guides our actions at the Fondation du Judaïsme Français / French Judaism Foundation. It means: Not giving up when it is necessary to fight ceaselessly and at all times against the multi - dimensional anti - semitism that the Foundation has sought to gain a better understanding of and to measure with the help of a major study conducted by the Ipsos institute. Not giving up when it comes to defending the poorest, the most disadvantaged and vulnerable who have been marginalised and left behind, in spite of the economic crisis that has made every donation and gift more difficult to obtain.

  • Through the View Finder: Israeli Cinema and TV
    Through the View Finder: Israeli Cinema and TV Dr. Miryam Sivan Course Number: 702.2690 Office Hours: TBA Semester: TBA Location: 236, Student Building Class Time: TBA Phone: 04-824-2065 Class Location: TBA E-Mail: [email protected] Course Description: From mid-19th century daguerreotypes taken by Joseph-Philibert Girault de Prangey, to the first film taken by the brother Lumiere, from films sponsored by the Jewish Agency showing the early Eastern European Jewish pioneers, to the current explosion of Israeli cinema and television, dubbed the Golden Age of Israeli Television, by producers, stations, and film platforms around the world, in this class we will explore Israel in all its complexity through the camera view finder. Though the first feature films were only shot in the 1930s, and then just a few, since 1960 over 200 have been shot. Some, like Exodus, were Hollywood-based and established the sabra super- man image in the world's eye. But most were and are local productions filmed for a fraction of an American or European budget. A respectable number of Israeli films have been shortlisted in the Academic Award’s Foreign Film category, but up until recently, most of Israel’s films have been heard of or seen outside of the country though they represent a unique picture of a nation and a land in transition. We will watch movies and tv episodes (at home) and read critical articles on the development of Israel cinema to allow a more nuanced and multifaceted understanding of Israel's complex history of identity, place, community, and landscape -- and its continual metamorphosis through time.
