  • The New Israeli Land Reform August 2009
    Adalah’s Newsletter, Volume 63, August 2009 The New Israeli Land Reform August 2009 Background On 3 August 2009, the Knesset (Israeli parliament) passed the Israel Land Administration (ILA) Law (hereinafter the “Land Reform Law”), with 61 Members of Knesset (MKs) voting in favor of the law and 45 MKs voting against it. The new land reform law is wide ranging in scope: it institutes broad land privatization; permits land exchanges between the State and the Jewish National Fund (Keren Kayemet Le-Israel) (hereinafter - the “JNF”), the land of which is exclusively reserved for the Jewish people; allows lands to be allocated in accordance with "admissions committee" mechanisms and only to candidates approved by Zionist institutions working solely on behalf of the Jewish people; and grants decisive weight to JNF representatives in a new Land Authority Council, which would replace the Israel Land Administration (ILA). The land privatization aspects of the new law also affect extremely prejudicially properties confiscated by the state from Palestinian Arab citizens of Israel; Palestinian refugee property classified as “absentee” property; and properties in the occupied Golan Heights and in East Jerusalem. Land Privatization Policy The law stipulates that 800,000 dunams of land currently under state-control will be privatized, enabling private individuals to acquire ownership rights in them. The reform will lead to the transfer of ownership in leased properties and land governed by outline plans enabling the issuance of building permits throughout the State of Israel in the urban, rural and agricultural sectors. Change in the organizational structure of the Israel Lands Administration The reform further stipulates a broad organizational re-structuring of the ILA.

  • Neophyte Politicos, Tried Businessmen by SHLOMO MAITAL
    Neophyte politicos, tried businessmen By SHLOMO MAITAL 01/10/2013 10:25 Some fresh faces may help revitalize a Knesset that has lost respect and trust among ordinary Israelis. Photo by: Lahav Harkov The 19th Knesset will feature some fresh new faces among its 120 members, hopefully bringing new ideas on economics, business and entrepreneurship. They include Erel Margalit, a venture capitalist; Jacob Perry, veteran manager and business leader; Yair Shamir, entrepreneur, venture capitalist and until recently chair of Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI); and Naftali Bennett, entrepreneur and now leader of the Bayit Yehudi party, the successor to the National Religious Party. All are relative neophytes in politics. In a political system that is more geriatric than creative, they bring welcome relief. Elections were called for January rather than October because of the inability of the coalition government to agree on a new budget. With the economy slowing, and the budget deficit growing, it was clear there was need for a painful NIS 15-20 billion ($4-$5.3 billion) budget cut. Yet the coalition parties could not agree on whose ox should be gored. They preferred to sweep the mess under the carpet and deal with it only after the election. According to the Bank of Israel, 2012 GDP growth was 3.3 percent. For 2013, the forecast calls for 3.8 percent growth. This is significantly higher than forecasted growth of the US or Europe. But the optimism stems in part from natural gas from the Tamar field, which when it comes on stream will contribute a full percentage point, or one-fourth, to total GDP growth.

    Zionist Thought: Classical Theories and Current Dilemmas Dr. Arnold M. Eisen, JTS ScholarStream | April 21, 2021 Source 1: Theodor Herzl, The Jewish State (1896) in Hertzberg, Arthur, ed. The Zionist Idea: A Historical Analysis and Reader. Philadelphia: Jewish Publication Society, 1997, 209. Anti-Semitism is a highly complex movement, which I think I understand. I approach this movement as a Jew, yet without fear or hatred. I believe that I can see in it the elements of cruel sport, of common commercial rivalry, of inherited prejudice, of religious intolerance—but also of a supposed need for self-defense. I consider the Jewish question neither a social nor a religious one, even though it sometimes takes these and other forms. It is a national question, and to solve it we must first of all establish it as an international political problem to be discussed and settled by the civilized nations of the world in council. We are a people—one people. We have sincerely tried everywhere to merge with the national communities in which we live, seeking only to preserve the faith of our fathers. It is not permitted us. In vain are we loyal patriots, sometimes superloyal; in vain do we make the same sacrifices of life and property as our fellow citizens; in vain do we strive to enhance the fame of our native lands in the arts and sciences, or her wealth by trade and commerce. In our native lands where we have lived for centuries we are still decried as aliens, often by men whose ancestors had not yet come at a time when Jewish sighs had long been heard in the country.

  • Israel: Background and US Relations
    Israel: Background and U.S. Relations (name redacted) Specialist in Middle Eastern Affairs June 1, 2015 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov RL33476 Israel: Background and U.S. Relations Summary Since Israel’s founding in 1948, successive U.S. Presidents and many Members of Congress have demonstrated a commitment to Israel’s security and to maintaining close U.S.-Israel cooperation. Common perceptions of shared democratic values and religious affinities have contributed to the strong bilateral ties. The question of Israel’s security regularly influences U.S. policy considerations regarding the Middle East, and Congress provides active oversight of executive branch dealings with Israel and other actors in the region. Israel is a leading recipient of U.S. foreign aid and a frequent purchaser of major U.S. weapons systems. By law, U.S. arms sales cannot adversely affect Israel’s “qualitative military edge” over other countries in its region. The two countries signed a free trade agreement in 1985, and the United States is Israel’s largest trading partner. Israel has many regional security concerns and aligning U.S. and Israeli policies to address these concerns has presented persistent challenges. By voicing criticism of international diplomacy on Iran’s nuclear program, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu may seek to give Israel a voice in an ongoing negotiating process in which it does not directly participate. As a June 2015 deadline nears for a comprehensive international agreement on the issue, Israel apparently seeks material assurances that the United States will bolster its regional security standing and self-defense capabilities. In addition to concerns over Iran, Israel’s perceptions of security around its borders have changed since 2011 as several surrounding Arab countries have experienced political upheaval.

  • Israel (Includes West Bank and Gaza) 2020 International Religious Freedom Report
    ISRAEL (INCLUDES WEST BANK AND GAZA) 2020 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The country’s laws and Supreme Court rulings protect the freedoms of conscience, faith, religion, and worship, regardless of an individual’s religious affiliation. The 1992 Basic Law: Human Dignity and Liberty describes the country as a “Jewish and democratic state.” The 2018 Basic Law: Israel – The Nation State of the Jewish People law determines, according to the government, that “the Land of Israel is the historical homeland of the Jewish people; the State of Israel is the nation state of the Jewish People, in which it realizes its natural, cultural, religious and historical right to self-determination; and exercising the right to national self- determination in the State of Israel is unique to the Jewish People.” In June, authorities charged Zion Cohen for carrying out attacks on May 17 on religious institutions in Petah Tikva, Ashdod, Tel Aviv, and Kfar Saba. According to his indictment, Cohen sought to stop religious institutions from providing services to secular individuals, thereby furthering his goal of separating religion and the state. He was awaiting trial at year’s end. In July, the Haifa District Court upheld the 2019 conviction and sentencing for incitement of Raed Salah, head of the prohibited Islamic Movement, for speaking publicly in favor an attack by the group in 2017 that killed two police officers at the Haram al-Sharif/Temple Mount. In his defense, Salah stated that his views were religious opinions rooted in the Quran and that they did not include a direct call to violence.

Thèse dirigée par Monsieur KOUTS Gideon Soutenue le 3 décembre 2014 Jury : Mme Françoise Saquer-Sabin M. Ouzi Elyada M. Ephraïm Riveline M. Gideon Kouts 1 Titre de la thèse : Etude de la réception de la littérature hébraïque en France : Nature et enjeux (culturels, économiques et politiques) des œuvres de fiction traduites en français depuis l’an 2000. Résumé : Les traductions en français de la littérature israélienne ont nettement augmenté au cours des dernières décennies. Ce phénomène s'inscrit dans le cadre général de l'augmentation des échanges littéraires internationaux mais tient également à des raisons politiques, commerciales ou culturelles. Notre étude recense les œuvres de fiction en prose traduites en français entre 2000 et 2012 et établit des statistiques sur leur nombre, les auteurs les plus traduits, les maisons d’édition et les traducteurs impliqués dans cette importation. Elle précise le rôle des principaux acteurs de cette exportation/ importation : institutions gouvernementales israéliennes et françaises, agents littéraires, éditeurs et traducteurs et en analyse les enjeux politiques, économiques et culturels. Notre étude tente enfin de cerner la nature de la réception de ces œuvres dans les médias et le grand public. Nos conclusions s’appuient d’une part sur un large corpus d’œuvres littéraires israéliennes et d’articles de presse et d’autre part sur des entretiens ou réponses écrites d’écrivains, agents littéraires, éditeurs, traducteurs, directeurs de bibliothèques et lecteurs.
