  • Gender and Migration in Arab States
    International Labour Organisation GENDER AND MIGRATION IN ARAB STATES: THE CASE OF DOMESTIC WORKERS Edited by Simel Esim & Monica Smith June 2004 Regional Office for Arab States, Beirut International Labour Office concerning the legal status of any country, area or territory or of its authorities, or concerning the of its frontiers. The responsibility for opinions expressed in this study rests solely on the authors and publication does not constitute an endorsement by the International Labour Office of opinions expressed in them. For more information, please contact: Simel Esim Gender & Women Workers’ Specialist Tel: 961 - 1 - 752400 Fax: 961 - 1 - 752405 Email: [email protected] 4 Gender & Migration in Arab States : The Case of Domestic Workers Foreword Domestic workers, the majority of whom are women, constitute a large portion of today's migrant worker population. As part of the international trend of feminization of international labour, much of this work remains invisible in national statistics and national labour legislation. It is not certain whether the increasing participation of women in international migration provides them with a decent wage, good working conditions, social security coverage and labour protection. It is therefore important to provide more attention to the labour situation of the growing number of women migrant workers. To identify critical issues of concern to women migrant domestic workers and to determine the extent of their vulnerability, the ILO has been analyzing the situation in several regions. These studies reveal practices and patterns that are the key causes of the vulnerability of women domestic migrant workers and suggest effective alternative strategies. This publication presents an ILO regional review and four country studies from the Arab States: Bahrain, Kuwait, Lebanon and United Arab Emirates.

    MENU Policy Analysis / Congressional Testimony Syrian Sponsorship of Global Terrorism: The Need for Accountability by Matthew Levitt Sep 18, 2002 ABOUT THE AUTHORS Matthew Levitt Matthew Levitt is the Fromer-Wexler Fellow and director of the Reinhard Program on Counterterrorism and Intelligence at The Washington Institute. Articles & Testimony estimony before the House Committee on International Relations, Subcommittee on the Middle East and South T Asia. The following statement borrows heavily from the author's monograph Targeting Terror: U.S. Policy toward Middle Eastern State Sponsors and Terrorist Organizations, Post–September 11 (The Washington Institute, 2002). As the Bush administration surveys it options for year two of the war on terrorism, scant attention is focused on Syria—despite the fact that Dr. Bashar al-Assad's regime has been among the world's most active supporters of terrorism, even after September 11. In fact, Syrian support for terrorism under Bashar al Assad has become far more brazen and direct that it was under the rule of his father, Hafez al Assad. Over the past year, the President and other senior officials have warned Damascus to terminate its proactive sponsorship of international terrorist groups of global reach, extended face-saving opportunities for Syria to do so, and warned that Syria that it must close down terrorist training camps, expel terrorist organizations, and "choose the right side in the war on terror." Failure to hold Syria accountable for its support of international terrorism after repeatedly articulating this message will further dilute America's already diminished credibility in the eyes of men like Bashar al Assad, Yasir Arafat, and Saddam Hussein.

    Syria’s Return to Lebanon: The Challenge of the Lebanese State and the Role of Hizbollah Daniel Sobelman On July 7, 2006, the Beirut newspaper al-Mustaqbal , owned by Saad al-Din al-Hariri, published an article that in retrospect seems almost prophetic. Less than three weeks prior, Gilad Shalit was kidnapped on the border of the Gaza Strip, and Israel, writer Nasir al-Asaad warned, was in a state of frenzy and sending threatening messages to Damascus and Hizbollah, warning them against provocations. “What was passed over on previous occasions will not be passed over now,” al-Asaad cautioned, and added, “It would not be overstating the case to say that Lebanon is directly exposed to danger.” In previous years, the United States had restrained Israel, but this time, there would be no such restraint. He explained: “Needless to say, opening a front in Southern Lebanon, regardless of the reason, will expose Lebanon to the Israeli frenzy, and will also be of no use to the Palestinians themselves.” Al-Asaad summed up by saying that it was in Lebanon’s interest to refrain from supplying military and warlike “contribu- tions” that this time could make Lebanon pay a very heavy price…The coming days, and perhaps the next few hours, present Lebanon and the Lebanese with a great challenge. The challenge here is how to make defense of [Lebanon’s] national interest against the dangerous consequences the top priority, above any other priority. 1 Five days later, Hizbollah kidnapped two IDF soldiers on the northern border, an action that set off the Second Lebanon War.
