We have, and continue, to make a difference in the Jewish world and we are uniquely situated to realize our strategic vision of building and connecting young and old alike to our ancestral soil. Your investment as a partner with Jewish National Fund is critical to our achievement. We must inspire and engage the next generation to continue the legacy of our people; we connect thousands of our young people from the United States to the land and people of Israel better than anyone through our platform, “from birth to the boardroom.” When I meet our teenagers and our JNFuture members (22 to 40-year-olds), the fastest growing segment of our donor base, their enthusiasm and passion for Israel is clear.

Goldstein And approved by ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION “The Eternal Nation Does Not Fear A Long Road”: An Ethnography Of Jewish Settlers In Israel/Palestine By ASSAF HAREL Dissertation Director: Daniel M. Goldstein This is an ethnography of Jewish settlers in Israel/Palestine. Studies of religiously motivated settlers in the occupied territories indicate the intricate ties between settlement practices and a Jewish theology about the advent of redemption. This messianic theology binds future redemption with the maintenance of a physical union between Jews and the “Land of Israel.” However, among settlers themselves, the dominance of this messianic theology has been undermined by postmodernity and most notably by a series of Israeli territorial withdrawals that have contradicted the promise of redemption. These days, the religiously motivated settler population is divided among theological and ideological lines that pertain, among others issues, to the meaning of redemption and its relation to the state of Israel. ii This dissertation begins with an investigation of the impact of the 2005 Israeli unilateral withdrawal from the Gaza Strip upon settlers and proceeds to compare three groups of religiously motivated settlers in the West Bank: an elite Religious Zionist settlement, settlers who engage in peacemaking activities with Palestinians, and settlers who act violently against Palestinians.

    Israeli petition in favor of recognition of a Palestinian state “We the undersigned citizens of Israel, who wish for it to be a safe and thriving country, are worried by the continued political stalemate, the occupation, and the settlement activities that lead to further confrontations with Palestinians and quash any chances for compromise. It is clear that the prospects for Israel's security and existence depend on the existence of a Palestinian state alongside Israel. Israel should recognize the state of Palestine and Palestine should recognize the state of Israel, based on the June 4, 1967 borders. Your initiative for recognition of the state of Palestine will advance prospects for peace and will encourage Israelis and Palestinians alike to bring an end to their conflict.” Abd Elkader Kanani Research Student Abed Kaboub Jurist Ada Ravon Lawyer Adam Keller Journalist Adam Uriel Visual Artist Adeeb Awad CEO, Advertising & Media Adi Rosenthal Tourism Advisor Adina Aviram Dr. Head of Molecular Laboratory in Hematology Ady Yarkon Retired Ahuva Bar'am Alex Levac !

This report sheds light on ELEM’s broad-based activity and on the trends that we have seen amongst youth in 2012. Over the past year we have observed some worrying statistics, including an increase in the number of homeless youth and young adults, an increase in the number of violent incidents involving teens and an increase in the number of minors engaged in prostitution. This year we commemorated 30 years of ELEM’s essential work. During the year we Nava Barak met thousands of youth in need of a sympathetic ear, a warm hug and a guiding hand.

  • Therapeutic Pool at Shlomit
    Strengthening Resilience for Negev Border Communities Therapeutic Pool at Shlomit A new community center in the Gaza envelope will feature a therapeutic swimming pool for the mental and physical health of people on the confrontation line. Shlomit is a community located in the Halutza Sands of the Negev, under the jurisdiction of the Eshkol Regional Council. Only some 400 meters from the Egyptian border, Shlomit is part of the Gaza envelope communities. In addition to its prospective ~500 families, the community is being developed to serve as the region's cultural, educational, and commercial center. In recent years, the communities of the Eshkol Regional Council have faced a volatile security situation, which is daily palpable and not only in times of emergency. The serenity and tranquility, which once characterized life in the desert region, have been disrupted by periodic rounds of armed conflict and ongoing threats of terrorism from across the Gaza Strip border, whether from tunnels, mortar attacks, or incendiary kites and balloons and more. These have taken their toll on Shlomit's residents. For children, living with constant stress and anxiety has a detrimental impact on their healthy, normal development. Traumatic stress is manifested in difficulty in daily functioning: not going to school, remaining in or near protected spaces/bomb shelters, outbursts of crying, bed-wetting, and other expressions of constant fear. #17766 The resilience centers of the Eshkol Regional Council, together with local emergency teams, work around the clock, responding to the growing number of requests for help. In this context, the regional council is planning to build a therapeutic pool at a new community center, which will serve the entire region, as part of the comprehensive services to promote community resilience.

    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 048 861 JC 710 099 AUTHOR Shively, Harold E. TITLE A Community College System for Israel. SPUNS AGENCY Van Leer Jerusalem Foundation (Israel). PUB DATE Nov 70 NOTE 26p. EDk(S PRICE EDRS Price 3F-$0.65 HC-$3.29 DESCRIPTORS College Role, *Educational Development, *Educational Needs, Educational Objectives, Educational Opportunities, *Educational Planning, *Foreign Countries, *Junior Colleges IDENTIFIERS *Israel ABSTRACT The purpose of this report is to recommend an educational institutional model that might effectively provide a means of coordination, accommodation, and implementation of programs to meet post-secondary needs in Israel on a regional basis. Israel already has 2-year post-secondary institutions, but the colleges and universities do not accept their students with advanced standing. Urgently needed are adult, continuing, and compensatory education programs. From his evaluation, the author concludes that: (1) emphasis in curriculum should be in technical fields, which are vital to the nation's interests; (2) a need exists for the education of more qualified teachers; (3) of critical importance are accreditation and the need to provide advanced standing to academically qualified students when they are transferring to 4-year colleges and universities; and (4)these problems should be corrected as soon as possible. The author presents a basic organizational model for development of a community college system, as well as alternatives to that system. (CA) U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH.

Focusing on religious authority, the article traces the complex relationship between rabbis to their communities which is rarely a simple “top-down” traditional authority model. On the contrary, both the rabbis and their communities are aware of the fragility of their relationship, and therefore created a complex belief system in which the rabbis’ recommendation is sought, but not necessarily considered binding. In addition, the article describes the “Datlshim” (Hebrew acronym for “Ex-religious”). This liminal identity characterizes individuals who grew up within these religious communities but decided to dissent in their adulthood. They do not feel committed to, and sometimes openly reject the Jewish religious code. The article contributes to the scholarly understanding of religious authority, as well as the diversity within the religious-Zionist community in Israel, which has become increasingly influential is Israeli politics and society. Keywords: Israel; religion; religious authority; religious-Zionism; secularization; religionization. Introduction The young religious family that wanted to move to a village in southern Israel had no intention to provoke such a controversy. Indeed, all members of the village selection committee shared the impression that the family was friendly and showed genuine commitment to village values.
