Raz’s involvement was sure to raise hackles within the coalition, which was formed under the understanding that its rightist and leftist parties would avoid contentious issues in order not to rock the boat. One of the right-wing MKs who attended the event is the coalition’s Abir Kara of Bennett’s Yamina party. During the event, representatives of various left-wing human rights groups presented reports about the situation in the West Bank since 1967. The organizations included B’Tselem, Adalah, Peace Now, Yesh Din, Gisha, Breaking the Silence and Human Rights Watch. Religious Zionism’s extremist MK Itamar Ben Gvir attended the event and hurled insults at several Arab lawmakers, calling organizers Touma Sliman and Raz “terrorists” and “terror supporters” and shouting the same accusation at Joint List MKs Ofer Cassif and Ahmad Tibi.

(Yonatan 2021. (Yonatan Sindel/FLASH90) Sindel/Flash90) Cassif retorted by saying: “Shut your mouth, you piece of shit, racist fascist.” “Aida, you don’t condemn [it] when a soldier is murdered,” Ben Gvir shouted at Touma-Sliman. “You’re a terrorist, I’m willing to remove my [parliamentary] immunity, sue me. We’ll teach you what democracy is.” Religious Zionism MK Itamar Ben Gvir argues during an event titled ‘After 54 years: Between occupation and Apartheid’ in the Knesset, June 22, 2021. (Yonatan Sindel/FLASH90) Amichai Chikli, a rebel Yamina MK, labeled the event “a disgrace” and on Monday sent a letter asking the Knesset’s legal adviser and events department to prevent the participation of organizations he said were undermining Israel in the international arena. “This is a serious act of political sabotage and it is unbearable that it should take place within the walls of the Knesset,” Chikli said. Chikli said that he was most concerned about the involvement of Human Rights Watch, one of the world’s best-known rights groups, saying that the organization works for the delegitimization of Israel and should not be permitted to participate. HRW’s Omar Shakir, the New York-based rights group’s director for Israel, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, was expelled from Israel in 2019 after a lengthy court battle when the country accused him of supporting boycotts of the Jewish state. American citizen Omar Shakir, the director of the New York-based Human Rights Watch for Israel, the West Bank and Gaza, is pictured at Ben Gurion Airport on November 25, 2019, after being expelled from Israel. (JACK GUEZ / AFP) Authorities said at the time that Shakir’s expulsion was the first from inside Israel under a 2017 law allowing the deportation of foreigners who support a boycott. The move was condemned by international bodies, with the United Nations warning of a “shrinking space for human rights defenders to operate” in Israel, the West Bank and Gaza. When Shakir started talking via video at Tuesday’s event, Ben Gvir called out: “How can we let him speak here, in the Knesset?” Earlier this year HRW said that Israel was guilty of the crimes of apartheid and persecution because of discriminatory policies toward Palestinians within its own borders and in the West Bank and Gaza. Israel strongly rejected the accusations. https://www.timesofisrael.com/terrorist-fascist-mks-hurl-insults-during-occupation-apartheid-event/ [Hummmm? Sounds like a rousing time in the Israeli legislative group. It simply increases the question of just how long this current coalition can survive and what will ultimately happen to the overall governance of the country. – rdb] Justice minister taps Amit Aisman as next state prosecutor Attorney was first nominated last year, but his confirmation was delayed amid political turmoil and protests over past sexist remarks By TOI staff Today, 9:39 pm Haifa District Prosecutor Amit Aisman. (Justice Ministry) Justice Minister Gideon Sa’ar announced Tuesday evening that he will nominate Amit Aisman to serve as Israel’s next state prosecutor. The position has been largely vacant since December 2019, when Shai Nitzan stepped down. Nitzan’s replacement has been delayed amid the political turmoil in Israel over the past two years. In November, a selections committee nominated Aisman, but the confirmation process was held up amid political squabbles and protests from female activist groups. Sa’ar said Tuesday that he will accept the nomination of the previous selections committee and bring his appointment to the government for approval. The five-member committee chaired by Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit said that Aisman, who beat out nine other candidates, came highly recommended by senior figures in the justice system. “The appointment of the state prosecutor is essential for the State Prosecutor’s Office and its proper functioning, and therefore I decided to bring the appointment to the approval of the government without delay,” Sa’ar said on Tuesday. Some of the past opposition to Aisman stemmed from past sexist and sexually-explicit comments to female subordinates that he made while serving as the Haifa district prosecutor. At the time, he received a warning as part of internal disciplinary proceedings. In December, Aisman apologized for his comments and said they do not represent him. “As someone who has been a public servant for about 30 years, I believe my duty goes beyond accepting responsibility, and requires public accountability, alongside a public and direct apology for the crude remarks. [These actions] don’t characterize my conduct and my moral belief, which highlights the unwavering upholding of human dignity,” he wrote in a Haaretz op-ed. “Both remarks made by me are inappropriate and unacceptable. They had and have no place in any discourse, definitely not in the discourse between a manager and employees in any workplace, not to mention [within] the Justice Ministry,” he added. “I fully understand the criticism made toward me in this context, and I accept full responsibility. These are slips that haven’t repeated themselves since, and will not repeat themselves in the future.” [Perhaps he might have some relative in New York State named Cuomo who has seemed to have some similar problems. This certainly isn’t the first public figure to have to cover their indiscretions. – rdb] Justice Minister Gideon Saar arrives at the new government’s first weekly cabinet meeting, in Jerusalem on June 20, 2021.

    Columbia University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Human Rights Studies Master of Arts Program Silencing “Breaking the Silence”: The Israeli government’s agenda respecting human rights NGOs activism since 2009 Ido Dembin Thesis Adviser: Prof. Yinon Cohen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts 12 September, 2018 Abstract This research examines a key aspect in the deterioration of Israeli democracy between 2009-2018. Mainly, it looks at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Right-wing governments utilization of legislative procedure to limit the right to free speech. The aspects of the right to free speech discussed here pertain to dissenting and critical activism against these government’s policies. The suppression of said right is manifested in the marginalization, delegitimization and ultimately silencing of its expression in Human Rights NGOs activism. To demonstrate this, the research presents a case study of one such NGO – “Breaking the Silence” – and the legal and political actions designed to cause its eventual ousting from mainstream Israeli discourse. The research focuses on the importance and uniqueness of this NGO, as well as the ways in which the government perceives and acts against it. First, it analyzes the NGO’s history, modus operandi and goals, emphasizing the uniqueness that makes it a particularly fascinating case. Then, it researches the government’s specific interest in crippling and limiting its influence. Finally, it highlights the government’s toolbox and utilization thereof against it. By shining a light on this case, the research seeks to show the process of watering down of a fundamental right within Israeli democracy – which is instrumental to understanding the state’s risk of decline towards illiberal democracy.

    . 2017 Annual Report 2017 had the dubious distinction of marking the 50th anniversary of Israel’s occupation of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip. After half a century, during which Israel’s policies have created profound changes that indicate long-term intentions, it is clear that this reality cannot be viewed as temporary. In 2017, B'Tselem continued to document and publicize human rights violations, while exposing the injustice, violence and dispossession at the very core of the occupation regime, challenging its legitimacy in Israel and abroad, and helping to expedite its end. 1 Table of Contents 2017 in Numbers 3 Executive Director's Note 5 Marking the 50th year of the Occupation 6 Photography Exhibit 6 Media Surrounding the 50th Anniversary 8 Reports Published in 2017 8 Getting Off Scot-Free 8 Made in Israel: Exploiting Palestinian Land for Treatment of Israeli Waste 9 Unprotected: Detention of Palestinian Teenagers in East Jerusalem 9 Fatalities 10 Trigger-Happy Responses to Clashes, Stone-throwing Incidents, Demonstrations or Evading Arrest 10 A Shoot-to-Kill Approach in Cases Defined as Assault 10 Security Forces Violence Against Palestinians 11 The Gaza Strip – A Decade of Siege 11 Separating Families 12 Gaza Executions 12 Prisoners and Detainees 13 Hunger Strike 13 Minor detainees 13 Communities Facing Demolitions and Displacement in Area C 14 Communities Under Imminent Threat of Transfer 14 An Increasingly Coercive Environment 15 Demolition Data 15 Demolitions in East Jerusalem 16 Batan al-Hawa -

Robert Wexler, President News Excerpts March 23, 2021 Reuters Israelis Vote on Netanyahu Again, After Vaccination Success Israelis vote today on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s political survival in a fourth election in two years, with the veteran leader hoping his role in a rapid COVID-19 vaccine campaign will win him another term. On trial on corruption charges he denies, Netanyahu, 71, is Israel’s longest-serving head of government. Since 2009, he has led the politically polarized nation where supporters hail him as “King Bibi” and opponents call him “crime minister”. Opinion polls indicated an uptick for Netanyahu’s right-wing Likud party in the campaign’s final days, giving a prospective coalition of conservative and ultra-Orthodox Jewish parties around 60 seats in the 120-member Knesset. A possible, but more unlikely, alliance among right-wing, centrist and left-wing parties opposed to a Netanyahu-led government also fell short of a ruling majority in the legislature, but could also be within reach of power, the surveys showed.

  • Israel and Overseas: Israeli Election Primer 2015 (As Of, January 27, 2015) Elections • in Israel, Elections for the Knesset A
    Israel and Overseas: Israeli Election Primer 2015 (As of, January 27, 2015) Elections In Israel, elections for the Knesset are held at least every four years. As is frequently the case, the outgoing government coalition collapsed due to disagreements between the parties. As a result, the Knesset fell significantly short of seeing out its full four year term. Knesset elections in Israel will now be held on March 17, 2015, slightly over two years since the last time that this occurred. The Basics of the Israeli Electoral System All Israeli citizens above the age of 18 and currently in the country are eligible to vote. Voters simply select one political party. Votes are tallied and each party is then basically awarded the same percentage of Knesset seats as the percentage of votes that it received. So a party that wins 10% of total votes, receives 10% of the seats in the Knesset (In other words, they would win 12, out of a total of 120 seats). To discourage small parties, the law was recently amended and now the votes of any party that does not win at least 3.25% of the total (probably around 130,000 votes) are completely discarded and that party will not receive any seats. (Until recently, the “electoral threshold,” as it is known, was only 2%). For the upcoming elections, by January 29, each party must submit a numbered list of its candidates, which cannot later be altered. So a party that receives 10 seats will send to the Knesset the top 10 people listed on its pre-submitted list.
