  • The Tunnels in Gaza February 2015 the Tunnels in Gaza Testimony Before the UN Commission of Inquiry on the 2014 Gaza Conflict Dr
    Dr. Eado Hecht 1 The Tunnels in Gaza February 2015 The Tunnels in Gaza Testimony before the UN Commission of Inquiry on the 2014 Gaza Conflict Dr. Eado Hecht The list of questions is a bit repetitive so I have decided to answer not directly to each question but in a comprehensive topical manner. After that I will answer specifically a few of the questions that deserve special emphasis. At the end of the text is an appendix of photographs, diagrams and maps. Sources of Information 1. Access to information on the tunnels is limited. 2. I am an independent academic researcher and I do not have access to information that is not in the public domain. All the information is based on what I have gleaned from unclassified sources that have appeared in the public media over the years – listing them is impossible. 3. The accurate details of the exact location and layout of all the tunnels are known only by the Hamas and partially by Israeli intelligence services and the Israeli commanders who fought in Gaza last summer. 4. Hamas, in order not to reveal its secrets to the Israelis, has not released almost any information on the tunnels themselves except in the form of psychological warfare intended to terrorize Israeli civilians or eulogize its "victory" for the Palestinians: the messages being – the Israelis did not get all the tunnels and we are digging more and see how sophisticated our tunnel- digging operation is. These are carefully sanitized so as not to reveal information on locations or numbers.

  • How Time Flies When You're Israeli on the One Hand the Region Has Experienced a Sort of Baby Boom
    How Time Flies When You're Israeli On the one hand the region has experienced a sort of Baby Boom. On the other hand the number of divorces has increased at an irregular rate, especially in communities near the border. One year since Operation Protective Edge and in the Gaza Envelope settlements they're trying to recover—not a simple matter when there's unanimous agreement that the next round is just around the corner. onday. It's quiet, pretty and clean in the Gaza Envelope. The air is warm and M crisp. The fields bask in the sun, indifferent to what's happening around them. And that's totally fine, because nothing is happening. It's almost one year since Operation Protective Edge. How time flies when you're Israeli. Moti Madmoni of the Schmerling Meat Bar, located at Alonit Junction at the entrance to Gaza, begins to organize his day. During the war, soldiers, journalists and foreigners swarmed here as the skewers of meat flowed out continually. "We did pretty well during the war," he says with a smile. He then describes how hard it was to stand over the grill while his son, a Golani soldier, was fighting on the inside. "But I prefer the quiet, although I don't believe in it. Another round is just a matter of time. This isn't genuine peace—the next battle will come and we'll accept whatever comes with love. We're not leaving. We're here and that's it." I talk with everyone I see, the vast majority of whom don't want to be photographed or quoted by name.

With British pressure in 1906, a more formal boundary was established between Egypt and Ottoman Palestine. This study focuses on these events and on the history from 1841 to the present. The study area includes the Sinai peninsula and extends from the Suez Canal in the west to what is today southern Israel from Ashqelon on the Mediterranean to the southern shore of the Dead Sea in the east.
