Dear public transport users in Southeast Tel Aviv, On July 1st the public transportation system in Tel Aviv will change dramatically. The official booklet explaining the transport reform may be nice and detailed, but it doesn't really explain how to get from point A to point B. TRANSPORT OUR WAY This is what we're here for. Israeli public transport consumer organization General information: 1. System-wide change in ticket prices: a single ticket (₪6.40) will allow unlimited transfers within 90 minutes in Tel Aviv and neighboring towns, on all bus companies (Dan, Egged, Kavim, Metropolin). 2. The changes that will take place July 1st , apply only to bus routes in Tel Aviv, Ramat Gan, Beni Brak, Bat Yam, Holon and Givatayim. Buses to Petah-Tikva, Rishon le-Tziyon, Rosh Ha’ayin, Hertzliyah and other cities, remain unchanged. Summary of changes in southeast Tel Aviv (neighborhoods of Yad Eliyahu, Hatikva, Kfar Shalem) The #16 bus will be replaced by the #204, which will continue to Ben Yehuda St. and the Reading Terminal. The #15 bus will be replaced by (a new) #16 bus. The new line will run along the same route as the #15 but the point of departure will now be the Carmelit Terminal. Also, the line will now pass through the Neve Tzahal neighborhood. The #9 bus will travel all the way along Moshe Dayan St., and make stops at Hashalom (Azrieli) Railway Station, Kaplan St. and Ben Gurion Blvd. The #239 bus will depart from Hatayasim Terminal and travel along the old #9 route to Yitzhak Sadeh and Carlibach Sts. The #39, #139, and #239 buses will travel along Moshe Dayan and Yitzhak Sadeh, continue on Carlibach and Dizengoff, to the Reading Terminal. The #35 bus will be cancelled. It will be replaced by the #139, which will travel along Yitzhak Sadeh, Moshe Dayan, La Guardia, Hatayasim and continue to Tel Hashomer. The #30 bus will be cancelled. It will be replaced by the #39, which will travel along Yitzhak Sadeh, Moshe Dayan, La Guardia, Hatayasim and continue to Ramat Amidar (in Ramat Gan). Due to the cancellation of the #30, Yad Eliyahu and Allenby St. will be connected by the #31 and the new #104 lines. The #104 will travel through Hatayasim, Moshe Dayan, Yitzhak Sadeh, Yigal Alon, Ha-hagana and continue to Allenby, Ben Yehuda and the Reading Terminal. The new #11 bus will travel along all of Moshe Dayan and Lehi Sts. At the northern end, the line will make stops at the Boursa (Ramat Gan Diamond Exchange/Elite Junction), Shenkar College, and on Pinkas St., and Nordau Ave. At its southern end, the line will make stops at Holon Junction, Ben Tzvi Way and Yafo (Jaffa). The #41 will no longer travel through southeast Tel Aviv. The new #11 will replace it and serve Kiryat Shalom, Ben Tzvi Way and Yafo (Jaffa). The #52 bus will now continue onward from the Ayalon Shopping Mall to Wallenberg St. and the Kiryat Atidim area. The #23, #31, #36, #37, #56, #59, #168 and #475 buses will remain unchanged (#23 and #31 will be extended into Givatayim. The hours of operation of the #23, #31, #34 and #52 buses will be extended until 22:00 (10pm).

    ARTICLES Israel's Migration Balance

    ARTICLES Israel’s Migration Balance Demography, Politics, and Ideology Ian S. Lustick Abstract: As a state founded on Jewish immigration and the absorp- tion of immigration, what are the ideological and political implications for Israel of a zero or negative migration balance? By closely examining data on immigration and emigration, trends with regard to the migration balance are established. This article pays particular attention to the ways in which Israelis from different political perspectives have portrayed the question of the migration balance and to the relationship between a declining migration balance and the re-emergence of the “demographic problem” as a political, cultural, and psychological reality of enormous resonance for Jewish Israelis. Conclusions are drawn about the relation- ship between Israel’s anxious re-engagement with the demographic problem and its responses to Iran’s nuclear program, the unintended con- sequences of encouraging programs of “flexible aliyah,” and the intense debate over the conversion of non-Jewish non-Arab Israelis. KEYWORDS: aliyah, demographic problem, emigration, immigration, Israel, migration balance, yeridah, Zionism Changing Approaches to Aliyah and Yeridah Aliyah, the migration of Jews to Israel from their previous homes in the diaspora, was the central plank and raison d’être of classical Zionism. Every stream of Zionist ideology has emphasized the return of Jews to what is declared as their once and future homeland. Every Zionist political party; every institution of the Zionist movement; every Israeli government; and most Israeli political parties, from 1948 to the present, have given pride of place to their commitments to aliyah and immigrant absorption.

  • Tel Aviv-Jaffa

    Tel Aviv-Jaffa

    Chapter 7 Tel Aviv-Jaffa 1 Introduction Tel Aviv-Jaffa is the second city of Israel, located on the Mediterranean coast- line. It is the nation’s financial center and technology hub; it is also the third- largest urban economy in the Middle East after Abu Dhabi and Kuwait City (Brookings Institution 2014). The city receives around three million tourists and visitors annually. It has been a long way since Tel Aviv was founded in 1909 by a few dozens of Jewish immigrants on the outskirts of the ancient port city of Jaffa, then mostly populated by Arabs. The first neighborhoods had been established in 1886 (Elkayam 1990) and new quarters made their appearance outside Jaffa in the following years. On 11 April 1909, 66 Jewish families gathered on a sand dune to parcel out the land. This was the official date of the establishment of Tel Aviv. By 1914, Tel Aviv had grown to more than one square kilometer. The town rapidly became an attraction for newcomers. These were the years of the British Mandate and the number of those immigrants – from Poland and Ger- many mainly – increased all along the 1930s, propelled by the world economic crisis of 1929 and the rise to power of Nazism in Germany in 1993. As a conse- quence, frictions intensified between Arabs and Jews in Palestine1 but did little to prevent Tel Aviv from growing (Glass 2002). In 1923, Tel Aviv was the first town to be wired to electricity in the country, and it was granted municipal status in 1934. By 1937 it had grown to 150,000 inhabitants, compared to Jaffa’s 69,000 residents.

    Introduction

    Notes Introduction 1. The exact Hebrew name for this affair is the “Yemenite children Affair.” I use the word babies instead of children since at least two thirds of the kidnapped were in fact infants. 2. 1,053 complaints were submitted to all three commissions combined (1033 complaints of disappearances from camps and hospitals in Israel, and 20 from camp Hashed in Yemen). Rabbi Meshulam’s organization claimed to have information about 1,700 babies kidnapped prior to 1952 (450 of them from other Mizrahi ethnic groups) and about 4,500 babies kidnapped prior to 1956. These figures were neither discredited nor vali- dated by the last commission (Shoshi Zaid, The Child is Gone [Jerusalem: Geffen Books, 2001], 19–22). 3. During the immigrants’ stay in transit and absorption camps, the babies were taken to stone structures called baby houses. Mothers were allowed entry only a few times each day to nurse their babies. 4. See, for instance, the testimony of Naomi Gavra in Tzipi Talmor’s film Down a One Way Road (1997) and the testimony of Shoshana Farhi on the show Uvda (1996). 5. The transit camp Hashed in Yemen housed most of the immigrants before the flight to Israel. 6. This story is based on my interview with the Ovadiya family for a story I wrote for the newspaper Shishi in 1994 and a subsequent interview for the show Uvda in 1996. I should also note that this story as well as my aunt’s story does not represent the typical kidnapping scenario. 7. The Hebrew term “Sephardic” means “from Spain.” 8.

    ISRAEL Population r-piHE POPULATION of the State of Israel at the end of June 1954 was 1,687,886. J. Of these, 188,936 (about 11 per cent) were non-Jews. The table below shows the growth of the population of Israel since May 1948. TABLE 1 JEWISH POPULATION OF ISRAEL, MAY 1948-JULY 1954 Tear Jews Non-Jews Total 1948 758,000 1949 1,013,000 160,000 1,173,000 1950 1,203,000 167,000 1,370,000 1951 1,404,000 173,000 1,577,000 1952 1,450,000 179,000 1,629,000 1953 1,483,505 185,892 1,669,397 1954 (July) 1,498,950 188,936 1,687,886 The total yearly population increase fell from 17 per cent in 1950 to 15 per cent in 1951, 3.3 per cent in 1952, and 2.3 per cent in 1953, due to a decrease in the number of immigrants. Since the first half of 1952 the natural increase had exceeded the net migration. During the first half of 1953 the number of emigrants exceeded the number of immigrants, but during the latter half of the year, immigration was again somewhat greater than emi- gration. During 1953 there were 11,800 immigrants and 8,650 emigrants in all. During the first six months of 1954, 4,128 new immigrants came to Israel.
