PLO and jihadBy Guenter LangerJilian Becker's book is not new, it is from 1984, but still a good, and I would say, necessary read. She counters some popular beliefs about the origin of the conflict in the Middle East, about the role of the PLO and the various terrorist groups that partly rivaled with the PLO or infiltrated it successfully like Yassir Arafat's Fatah. She puts the Balfour Declaration into the perspective of the historic times of WWI, by explaining the original controvery between Jews and Arabs (not Palestians) and their numbers respectively, as well as their aims. With the rise of Haj Amin el Husseini, the later Mufti of Jerusalem (then a city with a Jewish majority) to the most extreme leader of the Arab population in the British mandate, the concept of jihad was implemented into the conflict right from the start.The PLO was created as a tool of Nasser's ambitions to unify the Arab world but was later captured by Arafat's Fatah. Arafat himself was a great nephew of the Mufti and son of a member of the Muslim Brotherhood. The all or nothing policies of both, the Mufti and Arafat, resulted first in the independence of a Jewish state and later on to no solution for the refugee problem, thus into a complete failure.Becker points out that Britain received the mandate over Southern Syria (Palestine) from the WWI Peace conference and from the League of Nations respectively in part because of the promise made to the Jews for an own homeland, expressed in the Balfour Declaration. However, with the onslought of WWII Britain tried to accomodate the Arabs by denying further Jewish immigration but failed in that attempt. The Mufti and his ilk rather hoped for a Nazi victory.Becker describes in detail the massacre of the Lebanese village of Damour, which was inhabited by Christians, by the Arafat led PLO in order to establish an own headquarter there. The PLO practically ruled Lebanon in the Seventies and didn't even refrain from murdering foreign journalists like the German writer Robert Pfeffer, a man who contributed to the German leading magazines Der Spiegel and Stern. Becker also points to the alliance of various Palestinian groups to outside extremist or terrorist groups like the German neo-Nazis of the WSG Hoffmann, the German Red Army Faction, the Japanese Red Army Faction, the Italian Red Brigades, the Basque ETA, the IRA, and others.Becker concludes with the remark that the PLO was "nothing but a savage instrument of Arab politics". However, she did not foresee its later triumph in becoming recognized by many countries and the UN as a legitimate representation of the Palestinian Arabs.6 of 8 people found the following review helpful. Some order and clarity in a confusing subjectBy Mrs M A WestropAt last I understand some of the historical background to the Middle East and the problems of Jewish-Arab relations, as well as the background to the terrorist groups and outrages blighting the world today. A clear and fascinating account which brings order to a subject which otherwise would be confusing and difficult: a book which is also both quickly and enjoyably read. The Palestine Liberation Organization was created by the Arab states as a weapon against Israel, but most of its victims have been Arabs. In Jordan it established itself as a rival power to the state and was forcibly expelled. Its building up of an army in Lebanon led to civil war and Israeli military intervention until it was again expelled in June 1982. In 1982 and 1983, the author took herself into the midst of war to write this book, journeying for many days on roads known to be mined and ambushed, spent nights in rooms with glassless windows while shells exploded on all sides, and explored the ruins of PLO strongholds in the wake of bombardments, in order to find documents, testimony, and clues of all kinds to the history of the organization. She interviewed members of the many different sides involved in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The result is a powerful book which explains the structure, aims, tactics and role in middle eastern and world politics of the PLO. About the AuthorJillian Becker, whose first three books were novels, has also written short stories, criticism, and numerous articles which have been published on both sides of the Atlantic. She has lectured at universities and schools and to learned societies, police, and military specialists; and has broadcast on radio and television in England, the US, Canada, Europe, the Middle East and Africa on terrorism and related subjects. The PLO cements and enhances the reputation she established as an authority on terrorism with her famous work Hitler's Children: The Story of the Baader-Meinhof Terrorist Gang. A unique study of a terrorist organization from inception to demise, it was published in seven European languages and Japanese, was chosen as Newsweek (Europe) Book of the Year 1977, and was serialized in major daily newspapers in Britain, Norway and Japan.

Sans précédent, cette administration internationale marqua le point de départ de l’internationalisation de la question de la Palestine, dont le droit international allait servir de socle à une nouvelle forme de colonialisme. Au lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, l’Organisation des Nations Unies (ONU) continua l’action entreprise par la SDN en s’occupant également de cette question sur la demande des Britanniques. En novembre 1947, l’ONU décida du partage de la Palestine en deux Etats pour résoudre les conflits entre sionistes et nationalistes arabes.

  • Chomsky's War Against Israel
    The Devil State: Chomsky’s War Against Israel By Paul Bogdanor Contents Introduction 1 The Destruction of Israel 2 Arab “Moderation” in Fact and Fantasy 4 Lebanon: Heroes and Criminals 7 The Methods of an Intellectual Crook 11 The World’s Leading Terrorist Commanders 15 The Treachery of the PLO 19 Conclusion 22 1 Introduction I’m not a maniac. - Noam Chomsky1 In Noam Chomsky’s political campaigns stretching back for decades, one theme is constant: his portrayal of Israel as the devil state in the Middle East, a malevolent institutional psychopath whose only redeeming feature is the readiness of its own left-wing intelligentsia to expose its uniquely horrifying depravity. Although he is the son of Hebrew teachers and a former kibbutz resident, for much of his adult life Chomsky has been in the grip of an obsessive hatred of the Jewish homeland. It began in the 1970s, when he demanded the extinction of Zionism in the name of the socialist revolution; it escalated in the 1980s, with his discovery that Israel was an imperialist terror state incubating a genocidal “final solution” for the human race; and it continues in the new century with an avalanche of increasingly hysterical books, essays, speeches and interviews.2 But Chomsky’s diatribes on the Arab- Israeli conflict are not only the product of his uniquely paranoid and vituperative mind; they also bear the hallmarks of his intellectual repertoire – massive falsification of facts, evidence, sources and statistics, conducted in the pursuit of a fanatical and totalitarian ideological agenda. Those who wish to sample Chomsky’s lucubrations on the wickedness of the Zionists will find that they have much to discover.

  • Terrorism Against Democracy
    Terrorism Against Democracy By M. Merrick Yamamoto CISSM Working Paper January 2015 Center for International and Security Studies at Maryland 4113 Van Munching Hall, School of Public Policy University of Maryland College Park, MD 20742 (301) 405-7601 Terrorism Against Democracy Based in Part on Stansfield Turner’s University of Maryland Course, “Terrorism & Democracy” By M. Merrick Yamamoto © 2015 by M. Merrick Yamamoto Preface & Acknowledgements This monograph approaches the problem of terrorism from the perspective of the process of a terrorist attack; that is, how terrorism is intended to “operate.” Comprehension of the intended process of the terrorist attack can help defeat terrorists, reduce terrorism, and avoid the damage that can result from poor responses to attacks. Part I of the monograph analyzes terrorism. Chapter 1 analyzes what terrorism is, and what kinds of acts are and are not terrorism. Chapter 2 analyzes the ways that terrorism is intended to operate on third-parties—the governments, organizations, individuals, and groups from which terrorists seek to elicit responses. Chapter 3 analyzes the causes of terrorism, and the threats that terrorism poses. Part II addresses what to do about terrorism—how to prevent terrorism, respond effectively to attacks, and defeat terrorists. Analysis of the steps of the terrorist attack shows that terrorism can be prevented and countered at each step. The monograph then addresses a general counterterrorism strategy. The monograph uses the Turner-Yamamoto Terrorism Model as a guide to comprehending terrorism and how to combat it. The model illustrates the steps of the terrorist attack, and shows how terrorism is intended to operate.

The liberal tradition in fiction Peter Blair [Final typescript (or ‘post-print’) version of article accepted for publication in The Cambridge History of South African Literature, ed. Derek Attridge and David Attwell (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2012)] To speak of any ‘tradition’, let alone a ‘liberal’ tradition, in South African English fiction requires caution. In 1979 Stephen Gray considered that ‘tradition-making, in English South Africa, has often occurred fortuitously, rather than by any planned consciousness through which the writer has fused his or her own literature’s past with contemporary stimuli’ (Southern African Literature, p. 7), and in 1994 Stephen Clingman concluded that there is ‘no aim or sense of building a novelistic tradition’, only ‘patterns of thematic accumulation’ (‘Novel’, p. 1148). If the critical consensus has resisted the notion of a tradition, it has nevertheless ascribed a certain shape to the literary history of liberal fiction. Richard Rive, himself a liberal author, is one of many who consider Alan Paton’s Cry, the Beloved Country (1948) a ‘watershed’, soon after which ‘liberal writing was on the wane’ (‘The Liberal Tradition’, pp.
