United States of America) Arkansas Model United Nations (AMUN) November 20-21, 2020 Teeter 1 Historical Context For years, there has been a consistent struggle between the State of Israel and the State of Palestine led by the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). In 2018, United States Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced that the U.S. embassy located in Tel Aviv would be moving to the city of Jerusalem.1 Palestine, angered by the embassy moving, filed a case with the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in 2018.2 The history of this case, U.S. relations with Israel and Palestine, current events, and why the ICJ should side with the United States will be covered in this research paper. Israel and Palestine have an interesting relationship between war and competition. In 1948, Israel captured the west side of Jerusalem, and the Palestinians captured the east side during the Arab-Israeli War. Israel declared its independence on May 14, 1948. In 1949, the Lausanne Conference took place, and the UN came to the decision for “corpus separatum” which split Jerusalem into a Jewish zone and an Arab zone.3 At this time, the State of Israel decided that Jerusalem was its “eternal capital.”4 “Corpus separatum,” is a Latin term meaning “a city or region which is given a special legal and political status different from its environment, but which falls short of being sovereign, or an independent city-state.”5 1 Office of the President, 82 Recognizing Jerusalem as the Capital of the State of Israel and Relocating the United States Embassy to Israel to Jerusalem § (2017).

  • Harrisongs 2012
    1 95.5 KLOS PLAYLIST DEC. 2ND 1 2 9AM THREE HOURS OF GEORGE HARRISONGS George Harrison – Isn’t It A Pity (version one) - All Things Must Pass ‘70 Simple, effective, majestic – this track is one of the most magnificent tunes of George’s solo career. First composed during the “Let It Be” sessions, it was recorded on June 2nd, 1970. Some considered this to be a parody of “Hey Jude,” with it’s length and similar sounding backing chorus – but the song is anything but a parody – but another piece of firm evidence of George’s power as a master songwriter. 9.10 BREAK 2 3 The Beatles - Blue Jay Way - Magical Mystery Tour (EP) (Harrison) Lead vocal: George Written by George Harrison on August 1, 1967 while vacationing in a rented house in the Hollywood Hills above Los Angeles. The story is essentially the same as the lyrics imply. On a foggy night in L.A., George sat at his rented house waiting for friends to arrive, but the maze of thin and winding streets and the thick fog rolling in got the best of them and they became lost. George: “I’d rented a house in Los Angeles on – Blue Jay Way, and I’d arrived there from England. I was waiting around for Derek and Joan Taylor who were then living in L.A. I was very tired after the flight and the time change and I stared writing, playing a little electric organ that was in the house. It had gotten foggy and they couldn’t find the house for some time.

  • Apple Label Discography
    Apple Label Discography 100-800 series (Capitol numbering series) Apple Records was formed by John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr in 1968. The Apple label was intended as a vehicle for the Beatles, their individual recordings and the talent they discovered. A great deal of what appeared on Apple was pretty self indulgent and experimental but they did discover a few good singers and groups. James Taylor recorded his first album on the label. Doris Troy recorded a good soul album and there are 2 albums by John Lewis and the Modern Jazz Quartet. The Beatlesque group Badfinger also issued several albums on the label, the best of which was “Straight Up”. Apple Records fell apart in management chaos in 1974 and 1975 and a bitter split between the Beatles over the management of the company. Once the lawyers got involved everybody was suing everybody else over the collapse. The parody of the Beatles rise and the disintegration of Apple is captured hilariously in the satire “All You Need Is Cash: the story of the Rutles”. The Apple label on side 1 is black with a picture of a green apple on it, black printing. The label on side 2 is a picture of ½ an apple. From November 1968 until early 1970 at the bottom of the label was “MFD. BY CAPITOL RECORDS, INC. A SUBSIDIARY OF CAPITOL INDUSTRIES INC. USA”. From Early 1970 to late 1974, at the bottom of the label is “MFD. BY APPLE RECORDS” From late 1974 through 1975, there was a notation under the “MFD.

  • Israel-Iran Short-Term Potential for Conflict
    Executive Summary Monday, August 27, 2012 SPECIAL ANALYSIS: Israel-Iran Short-Term Potential for Conflict EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Despite comments by some Israeli leaders, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, that the window for attacking Iran’s nuclear program is closing, it is unlikely that Israel will conduct a unilateral attack in the short-term. Any attack would strain Israeli military capabilities to the limit, invite costly counterstrikes from Iran and/or its proxies, worsen global economic conditions (impair oil transshipments, Middle East instability, etc.), and severely damage the Israeli economy which, to-date, has been a success story for Prime Minister Netanyahu. Political Considerations Prime Minister Netanyahu’s comments indicating that Israel will take unilateral action and not rely on allies is assessed as an effort to force President Obama’s hand in supporting future Israeli action or, optimally, pressuring the U.S. to take the lead in military action against Iranian nuclear facilities o Based on the perception that President Obama is vulnerable during the pre-election period on support-to-Israel issues with some voters Much of the Israeli government (including President Shimon Peres), leaders of the Israeli Defense Forces, and the Israeli public are not in support of an attack (61% oppose without U.S. support)i U.S. support, or acquiescence, does not seem to be in place as evidenced by recent trips to Israel by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, both of whom urged restraint

In winter, it’s a haven of snow sports, with some of the best ski slopes in Europe and the largest indoor sports centre the Alps has to offer. In the summer months, however, the hustle and bustle die down. What’s left is a lush green mountain range with views up to Mont Blanc, a thriving hiking community and, as of 2018, a music festival with a bit of a difference. The peculiarly named Megève Festival Savoy Truffle is so called because of its region – Savoy – and takes its inspiration from the 1968 song of that title by The Beatles, a band renowned for their commitment to a blend of musical styles. Festival director and former Verbier executive Guido Houben explains why The Beatles encompassed everything he was trying to achieve with his new festival: ‘They made innovative music of the highest quality incorporating elements of various genres – classical music, jazz, Here comes the sun: rhythm and blues – which is exactly what Mont Blanc looms over Megève; (above) The this festival aims to do.’ Beatles, who inspired Unlike the raft of other music festivals the festival’s name in the area – including Megève’s major jazz festival, which takes place every spring 50 BBC MUSIC MAGAZINE MUSICAL DESTINATIONS Mountain music: Lucero Tena plays the castanets with harpist Xavier de Maistre Raise a glass: sample some tasty local wine Food, glorious food Megève’s delicacies Megève is a gastronomic haven, with 89 restaurants – three of which have Michelin stars – and 23 farms and producers.

  • Israel, Iraq, and Operation Opera
    Chapter 8 Preventive Strikes: When States Call the Wrong “Bluff” On June 7, 1981, fourteen of Israel’s best fighter pilots gathered at Etzion air base, near Israel’s southernmost point. At 3:55 pm local time, the pilots entered their F-15 and F-16 fighter jets and took off. Their target: Osirak, a nuclear facility on the outskirts of Baghdad. Less than an hour later, the fighters had destroyed the facility. Israel had successfully executed one of the cleanest acts of preventive war in history. This book’s core theoretical model shows how a credible threat of preven- tive war heavily shifts bargaining power to the declining state. But thus far, the declining state has used that leverage to achieve better peaceful outcomes; the threat alone deterred the rising state. But Israel’s 1981 attack, dubbed Operation Opera demonstrates that rising states do not always successfully internalize a declining state’s preventive intentions. Why not? Operation Opera was neither the first nor last preventive assault.1 Nor- way’s Vemork Hydroelectric Plant was one of the earliest facilities capable of producing heavy water. On the eve of Nazi Germany’s invasion of Norway, French special forces smuggled the plant’s entire supply out of the country. When Nazi officials ordered the Vemork plant to produce more heavy water, Allied forces and Norwegian resistance sabotaged the its machinery, dealing a significant blow to Germany’s nascent nuclear program. Similarly, during the early stages of the Iran-Iraq War, Iran executed Operation Scorch Sword. With French assistance, Iraq broke ground the 1See Fuhrmann and Kreps 2010 for an exhaustive list of attacks on nuclear facilities.
