  • The Everyday Geopolitics of Messianic Jews in Israel-Palestine
    Title Page The everyday geopolitics of Messianic Jews in Israel-Palestine. Daniel Webb Department of Geography, Royal Holloway, University of London. Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of PhD, University of London, 2015. 1 Declaration I Daniel Webb hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Date: Sign: 2 Abstract This thesis examines the geopolitical orientations of Messianic Jews in Jerusalem, Israel-Palestine, in order to shed light on the confluence and co-constitution of religion and geopolitics. Messianic Jews are individuals who self-identify as being ethnically Jewish, but who hold beliefs that are largely indistinguishable from Christianity. Using the prism of ‘everyday geopolitics’, I explore my informants’ encounters with, and experiences of, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the dominant geopolitical logics that underpin it. I analyse the myriad of everyday factors that were formative in the shaping of my informants’ geopolitical orientation towards the conflict, focusing chiefly on those that were mediated and embodied through religious practice and belief. The material for the research was gathered in Jerusalem over the course of sixteen months – between September 2012 and January 2014 – largely through ethnographic research methods. Accordingly, I offer a lived alternative to existing work on geopolitics and religion; work that is dominated by overly cerebral and cognitivist views of religion. By contrast, I show how the urgencies of everyday life, as well as a number of religious practices, attune Messianic Jewish geopolitical orientations in dynamic, contingent, and contradictory ways.

  • My Aunt's Mamilla
    My father’s eldest sister has always served in My Aunt’s Mamilla my mind as a potential family encyclopedia. Helga Tawil-Souri “Potential” because I never had the opportunity to spend much time with her. She had come and visited us in Beirut once in the mid 1970s – I vaguely remember. My grandmother, with whom I spent much of my childhood, would often mention Auntie M. under a nostalgic haze, perhaps regret, that her first-born was so far away. That longing tone for her eldest led my other aunts, my father, and my uncles to joke that Auntie M. was their mother’s favorite. For years Auntie M. endured only in my imagination. Whatever tidbits I had caught about her were extraordinary, a fusion of new world mystery and old world obscurity. She lived in faraway places that sounded utterly exotic: Sao Paolo, Etobicoke, Toronto; that they always rhymed only added to their enigma. The haphazard trail I constructed of her life seemed improbable too: old enough to remember family life in Jerusalem; married and sent off to Brazil; had a daughter ten years older than me who didn’t speak Arabic. Auntie M. hovered behind a veil of unanswered questions: How old was she? Did my grandparents marry her off or did she choose to wed Uncle A.? How is one “sent” to Brazil? Could one even fly to Brazil back then? Did she flee with the family to Lebanon first? Did she really have another daughter besides the one I knew of? What happened to the other daughter? How did Auntie M.

  • THE STATE of ISRAEL 70 YEARS of INDEPENDENCE - Building a Nation
    1 The Zionist General Council Session XXXVII/4 THE STATE OF ISRAEL 70 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE - Building a Nation October 2018 2 Plenary No. 1 - Opening of the Zionist General Council Session Eli Cohen opened the first session and thanked the members of the audit committee and praised the auditor and his team, who - in their attempt to reach a level of satisfaction, which all can find to be acceptable - see all the flaws and improvements. Rabbi Yehiel Wasserman was invited to the stage for a ceremony conferring honorary fellowships to various members for their activities in the Zionist movement and their significant contribution to shaping its path and activities. This year, thanks to the WZO’s extensive activity over the past decade, quite a few people will be receiving this status. Honorary fellows are highly motivated individuals who have devoted many years of their time to the Zionist movement and who are role models for the next generation. Rabbi Wasserman then thanked the members of the Committee for Honorary Fellows: Barbara Goldstein, Silvio Joskowicz, Dalia Levy, Karma Cohen, Hernan Felman, Jacques Kupfer and Nava Avissar, the committee’s coordinator, for their dedicated work. Honorary Fellows: Mrs. Ana Marlene Starec – Mrs. Starec has been active in the Zionist movement for the past 54 years. She has been serving as Honorary President of WIZO for many years now and is also engaged in advocacy activities for Israel in the Diaspora in general, and with the Jewish communities of Brazil, in particular. Her human rights activities earned her a medal from the state of Rio de Janeiro, and she has also received a medal from the French Senate for her activities for humanity.
