Jewish Report www.sajr.co.za Storm brews over West Bank land seizure Alster/FLASH 90 Miriam Photo: Children seen playing in the streets of the settlement of Gvaot, on September 2. Two days earlier the Israeli government had declared part of the settlement - some 400 hectares - located near the West Bank City of Bethlehem, as state land. Critics say the move undermines the precarious position of PA President Mahmoud Abbas, whose Fatah movement badly trails the militant Hamas in popularity. The Israeli government said the move was to avenge the murder in the West Bank in June, of three Israeli yeshiva students - Naftali Fraenkel (16), Gil-Ad Shaar (16) and Eyal Yifrach (19) - in the area. The US has called on Israel to cancel the proposed expropriation, saying: “This announcement, like every other settlement announcement Israel makes... is counterproductive to Israel’s stated goal of a negotiated two-state solution with the Palestinians.” The Israeli army has declared that there was no claim of Palestinian ownership on the land in question.

CONCLUSION IV. APPENDIX/ PHOTOS I. THE MUSLIM JEWISH CONFERENCE In recent times, most Jewish and Muslim youth have not had constructive contact with each other. As a result, their opinions and perspectives of one another are largely based on stereotypes and prejudices dispersed by both the media and society. There is considerable lack of motivation in recognizing and understanding the wishes, fears, problems, and hopes of their communities. For almost twenty years, international simulations and conferences, led by and involving young participants, have created innovative models for initiating successful cooperation between various institutions throughout the world. From our experience attending these conferences and witnessing their success, we believe that initiatives that foster these types of encounters are an effective way to build relationships and break down stereotypes. We are strongly convinced that young individuals around the world possess a more globally-minded mentality, and therefore would support multi-cultural and multi- religious dialogue. By offering a safe forum for discussion, our hope was to extend beyond the closed-minded stereotypes that inhibit interaction, and create an atmosphere for Muslims and Jews to work together to strengthen their relationship in the face of many obstacles and challenges that lie in the way.

  • JRF Full Thesis for Hardbound
    Questioning the Promotion of Friendship in Interfaith Dialogue: Interfaith Friendship in Light of the Emphasis on Particularity in Scriptural Reasoning Jennifer Ruth Fields Jesus College 9 December 2019 This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. This thesis is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except as declared in the preface and specified in the text. It is not substantially the same as any work that has already been submitted before for any degree or other qualification except as declared in the preface and specified in the text. It does not exceed the prescribed word limit for the Faculty of Divinity Degree Committee. ABSTRACT Questioning the Promotion of Friendship in Interfaith Dialogue: Interfaith Friendship in Light of the Emphasis on Particularity in Scriptural Reasoning Jennifer Ruth Fields ‘Friendship’ is among the buzzwords such as ‘peace’, ‘tolerance’, and ‘understanding’, that are part of a shared vocabulary in the interfaith world. In discussions of the goals and benefits of interfaith dialogue, buzzwords such as ‘friendship’ are often implicitly presented as a common currency, and there is little attempt to explore how people within each religious tradition might define, shape, and describe them differently. How might, for example, Christians and Muslims differ in their opinions on the nature, possibilities, and limits of interfaith friendship? Looking at general interfaith dialogue material and at material for a specific type of interfaith dialogue, ‘Scriptural Reasoning’, I consider Christian and Muslim discourse, including promotional material for charities, speeches by religious leaders, religious documents, non-academic material (e.g.
