Israel's Arab Minority and the Second 2019 Elections: Outcomes and Discourse on Political Participation September 25, 2019
Inter-Agency Task Force on Israeli Arab Issues Israel’s Arab Minority and the Second 2019 Elections: Outcomes and Discourse on Political Participation September 25, 2019 Israel’s second national elections of 2019 drew 10% more Arab voters than the April elections, earning the Joint List 13 seats (up from 10) and making it once again the third largest party in the Knesset. In contrast to 2015, when the Joint List first formed and also won 13 seats, the highly polarized campaign cycles along with the lack of decisive results in both 2019 races have contributed to rapidly changing discourse about Arab political participation in national government, both within Arab society and in the Israeli mainstream. In recent years, Arab citizens have increasingly indicated greater interest in real influence in national government, as well as frustration about sensing a lack of efficacy in voting. After historically low Arab voter turnout of 49.2% in April, September’s higher turnout of 59.2% is attributed to a number of factors: the reunification of the Joint List, statements by Joint List Chair MK Ayman Odeh about his willingness to be part of a ruling coalition, get-out-the-vote efforts, and the backlash against negative campaigning and voter suppression efforts by Likud. Following election results, the Joint List is continuing to take a lead in advancing a discourse of greater participation. With a lack of clear path to a governing coalition, the party formally recommended MK Benny Gantz, Chair of Kahol Lavan, as Prime Minister, a move seen by many as “crossing the Rubicon” in terms of Arab leadership’s willingness to become a full player in Israeli politics. -

Israeli Reactions to the Abraham Peace Accords with the UAE and Bahrain
Israeli Reactions to the Abraham Peace Accords with the UAE and Bahrain Updated October 6, 2020 On September 15, 2020, leaders of Israel, the United Arab Emirates and the Kingdom of Bahrain signed The Abraham Accords, witnessed by the United States’ President Trump, on the White House lawn. The reaction across different segments of Israeli society to the new treaties has varied widely. General Israeli Population As a whole, Israelis greeted the Accords with satisfaction and even celebration. Newspapers featured banner headlines, television news carried ongoing, extended broadcasts, and social media was full of stories of Israelis searching for resorts, flights, shopping and vacations in Dubai. The Israel Democracy Institute carried out a poll through the Midgam Institute between August 31 and September 2, just after the deal was announced. Large majorities of those polled said that they thought the agreement would benefit Israel across a variety of fields, including economic (79%), “political-diplomatic” (76%) and in terms of tourism (76%). A smaller majority of 53% thought the deal would contribute to Israel’s national security as well. Yet, Israel today is deeply divided along partisan lines. Similar to the current situation in the United States, almost every issue in the Jewish state is today viewed through a political lens, and the new peace agreements are no exception. When Israelis see their Prime Minister on the White House lawn (alongside President Trump, another divisive figure), it is difficult for many to separate the act from the players, and there can be little doubt that politics cloud the perception of the Accords for many. -
Un Tempo Tabù, I Diritti LGBTQ Si Prendono Il Centro Della Scena Nella Società Palestinese
Un tempo tabù, i diritti LGBTQ si prendono il centro della scena nella società palestinese Fady Khouri 21 agosto 2020 + 972 Mag Nonostante il rifiuto dei conservatori e la cautela dei politici, i palestinesi queer stanno guadagnando nuovo terreno nella loro lotta per la legittimità – e intendono restarci. L’ultimo anno è stato di trasformazione – perfino storico – per la comunità Palestinese LGBTQ. Da molto tempo, i palestinesi queer vivono sotto due sistemi di cancellazione dell’identità diversi e sovrapposti. Uno è quello degli israeliani che hanno continuamente negato la nostra esistenza come palestinesi, sostenendo che “non esiste qualcosa come il popolo palestinese”. Il secondo è quello dei palestinesi che hanno negato per la maggior parte la nostra esistenza come omosessuali, bisessuali, transgender, queer e così via; quando uno di noi si alza e insiste sulla loro esistenza, allora siamo etichettati come malati, eretici, una deviazione dalla natura o il prodotto di influenze occidentali. Questa negazione si è tipicamente manifestata nel silenzio sui diritti LGBTQ. Inoltre, i palestinesi queer sono stati considerati indegni di rappresentanza politica nonostante abbiano guidato da molto tempo l’accusa contro il pinkwashing, che è, come sostengo altrove, una questione nazionale palestinese. Ad esempio, quando i giornalisti – di solito israeliani – hanno chiesto al parlamentare della Knesset Jamal Zahalka del Partito Balad la sua posizione sui diritti LGBTQ, lui ha risposto che la questione “semplicemente non è nella nostra agenda”. Ma quello che una volta era un tabù si è ora trasformato in un argomento di intenso dibattito nella società palestinese, costringendo anche le élites politiche a rompere il prolungato silenzio e a prendere posizione. -
