  • The Battle for the Palestinian Security Services
    Conflict Studies Research Centre Middl e East Series 06/51 Defence Academy of the United Kingdom The Battle for the Palestinian Security Services Gordon Bennett Key Points * The death of Yasir Arafat ended a controversial era for the divided and bankrupt Palestinian community. * Hamas’ electoral victory of January 2006 was predictable, as was its violent conflict with Fatah. * Any serious attempt to modernise and streamline the Palestinian administration provokes internal, bloody struggle. This trend is going to continue. * The most recent reforms of the Palestinian special services resulted in a particularly violent struggle without visible end. * The solution is a peace accord between the largest Palestinian factions and their willingness to control the militants, a task almost impossible as too many radicals hate Israel more than they love Palestine.

The contents do not necessarily reflect the views of the foundation. The Israeli-Palestinian “media monitoring” project, carried out since 2004 as a partnership between the Israeli organization KESHEV and the Palestinian organization MIFTAH, is a unique project in the field of media and conflict. The project’s uniqueness is evident in the cooperation that it involves between two organizations from different sides of a bloody conflict, at the height of a violent confrontation, and their shared use of an innovative methodology that they developed to change problematic patterns of media coverage of the conflict on both sides. This joint effort aims to help the media uphold moderation and fairness and to reduce the incidence of bias, incitement, dehumanization and de- legitimization of the other side. During the time of this project, Israel waged two major military campaigns, in Lebanon and in the Gaza Strip, in which thousands of Palestinian and Lebanese civilians were killed. In the same period attacks by Palestinians killed dozens of Israelis.

  • Media Regulation and Censorship in Occupied Palestine
    Media Regulation and Censorship in Occupied Palestine Photo: Palestine Monitor Anna Saraste, University of Tampere ICAHD Finland Abstract The following essay will try to describe the characteristics of the Palestinian media in the Occupied Territories, with a special focus on media regulation. The occupation of the Palestinian territories is not only felt via the illegal Israeli settlements, the restriction of movement in all of the Occupied Palestinian Territories as well as physical violence perpetrated by the Israeli military, police forces and settlers, but also through censorship imposed by the authorities – both Israeli and Palestinian – and the somewhat alarming state of freedom of speech. In the first part of the essay I will recapitulate some of the most relevant topics of the current political situation in Israel-Palestine. In addition, I will concentrate on the working conditions of the Palestinian media as well as the freedom of the press. Finally, the essay introduces the different media institutions working in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. A glance into the political context Historical Palestine is the territory located on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea. It borders Lebanon in the north and Egypt in the southwest as well as Jordan in the east. Today about 4 million Palestinians – the original inhabitants of the territory before the Zionist immigration – live in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. These areas were occupied by Israel during the 1967 War and have since been referred to as the Occupied Palestinian Territories, the definition used by the International Court of Justice, the highest judicial body in the world.

  • Palestinian Media Coverage of the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict
    Public Discourse and Perceptions: Palestinian Media Coverage of the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict MIFTAH’s Media Monitoring Unit March 2005 1 Introduction The traditional role of the media as reporters of the truth can play an important role in conflicts. A key function of the media is to provide the public with the information necessary to make good decisions. It is important to realize that decisions are not only based on events but also very much on how events are presented. The media can seek to confirm or question official accounts, reveal official deceit, and correct errors of omission. Recent advances in the field of information technology have enabled the media to have a much greater impact on public opinion than ever before. The media provide the public with an indispensable service. It is one of the pillars of modern society. Since the 1993 Oslo Accords which brought limited autonomy to Palestinian society, the tasks of the Palestinian media have changed radically. On the one hand, the media is expected to contribute to nation-building based on the prospective that the endgame of the Accords will be an independent, free, and democratic Palestinian state. On the other hand, it must deal with the reality that most of the Palestinian territory that will be the territory of the future Palestinian state is still occupied, and that it would indeed be early to shift the focus of the media away from the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. However, the two missions should not have to contradict each other since an honest, authentic, investigative, non-biased and informative media will serve both goals.
