In Bethlehem, all municipality workers went on a one-day strike to protest non-payment of their salaries over the past four months. − Clashes at Qalandiya checkpoint (Jerusalem) have occurred on a regular basis on Friday afternoons following the construction work by Israel at the Mughrabi gate in the Old City area. This week, Palestinians threw Molotov cocktails and stones at IDF soldiers who responded with live rounds injuring one Palestinian.

So there we were: just after Cast Lead had concluded in the two of us, humanitarian workers now, walking 20 meters behind a Palestinian mother and her two girls as we left Gaza. As vanguards, on posters everywhere they often own the liberation narrative. As early as the beginning of the 20th century it was accepted that separation from the Palestinians is a necessary condition to the existence of the State of Israel. Fair Observer does not use personal data collected from its website for advertising purposes or to market to you. Commercial Paper Shredders. Eyeless in Gaza? Hot Opinion. Even Mr. The synagogues were a focus of Palestinian anger after 38 years of Israeli occupation, primarily because they were among the only buildings left standing. A last pot simmered on the stove, under the blank spaces where the kitchen shelves had been, for the last Sabbath dinner of the Israeli settlement of Rafiah Yam. Since the evacuation of the settlers, however, rabbis mounted a high-profile campaign to save the buildings, demanding the government see to it that they would be protected by the Palestinians or by international organizations.

  • Creating the Jewish State: Projects of (In)Security and the Disjuncture to Price-Tag Violence
    (Re)Creating the Jewish State: Projects of (In)Security and the Disjuncture to Price-Tag Violence Nicola S. Mathie Department of Politics, Philosophy and Religion Lancaster University This thesis is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in International Relations November 2018 Declaration This thesis is the result of my own work and includes nothing, which is the outcome of the work done in collaboration except where specifically indicated in the text. It has not been previously submitted, in part or whole, to any university or institution for any degree, diploma, or other qualification. Signed: Nicola S. Mathie Research Award This thesis is the outcome of Research Award Grant Number 1225917 from The Economic and Social Research Council. My appreciation will always be with The Economic and Social Research Council for funding this PhD. Abstract Jewish-Israeli settlements built over the State of Israel’s internationally-recognised territorial borders are sites of contestation. The focus of this thesis is upon conflicts and contestations which have developed between the State of Israel and some of its own subjects, Jewish settlers, over the evacuation of settlement-communities and structures, and other perceived threats to settlement. From 2008, a new form of violence has been enacted by individuals in the settler community. Self-declared as Price-Tag violence, the attacks take different forms. These include vandalising Palestinian properties and spraying provocative graffiti, and throwing Molotov cocktails at properties. Whilst the attacks are predominantly perpetrated upon Palestinian targets, the attacks are directed at the State of Israel. Price-Tag attacks have also occurred directly on Israeli targets, such as Israeli military vehicles.
