Unpublished Rapid Responses, to Summerfield's Article “Palestine: The Rapid responses to “Palestine: the assault on health and other war crimes” [15 October-15 November 2004] Most rapid responses to the article were published on receipt and can be found at: http://www.bmj.com/cgi/eletters/329/7471/924 This file contains responses received within a month of the article’s publication that were not published at the time, for various reasons.

Any additional editing is indicated by [square brackets]. ** Date submitted: 15 Oct 2004 19:25 ----------------------------------------------------------------- "The truth is shocking" ----------------------------------------------------------------- The truth is shocking and Israel, the media, and even our natural temptation is to respond in the following ways: 1. That is such a terrible ongoing tragedy I guess there will never be peace so Israel's illegal Occupation of Palestinian land is an acceptable solution. 2. The violence will never stop, these people will always fight, and so illegal Occupation is an acceptable solution. 3. Surely the Arabs are to blame so demand they do something and until then, illegal Occupation is an acceptable solution. 4. The solution to this tragedy is so elusive we will never figure it out, so illegal Occupation is an acceptable solution. 5. Any person who speaks out against this must hate Jews and/or Israel and therefore must be a bigot or racist so we should not listen to them, and illegal Occupation is an acceptable solution. Folks, the Palestinians are surrounded by Israel, its soldiers and the illegal wall they are quickly building. Their food, water, clothing, electricity, safety, humanity, freedom, and dignity are ALL completely in the hands of the Israelis. Remind me who is in control of the situation Mr. Loren. The solution is simple despite what extremists Zionists would have you believe. It is simple, really. Here I’ll show you, repeat after me: “Get out.” Israel needs to get out of the occupied territories and take its illegal “settlements” with it. They need to go back to the UN mandated 1967 boundaries. Allow the Palestinians to control their own natural resources, govern themselves, police themselves and heal! Suicide bombings are wrong. Genocide is wrong. Allowing another Nazi Germany holocaust to occur by Israel against Palestinians should shock us all into demanding it STOP! It is the greatest irony of our day that the people that were targeted and killed en masse in Nazi Germany are today committing the same types of crimes against the Arabs. That is the truth. There is no mincing it; there is no media homogenization of the facts, that is what is happening. Don't accept the canned responses that Mr. Loren and others want us to accept. It breeds the debilitating mentality that only allows the Israeli's to continue the genocide that will meet their end goal: to eliminate Palestine completely while the rest of the world debates how to respond! The truth is shocking. It is hard to believe that the solution is that simple and that we have allowed ourselves to be barraged by the Zionist cover-up for so long. Resist the urge to ignore the simple solution. Resist the urge to debate how to execute the permanent pull-out. Resist the urge to do anything but stop the genocide and demand a full a permanent pull-out NOW.

"The Israeli army, with utter impunity, has killed more unarmed Palestinian civilians since September 2000 than the number of people who died on September 11, 2001." While it is true that around 3000 Palestinians have died since September 2000, it is completely untrue that they have all been 'unarmed civilians'. Indeed, the figures show that around 50-55% of Palestinian dead are 'armed combatants' and only around 45-50% are 'unarmed civilians'. (This compares to an Israeli rate of 80% of casualties being 'unarmed civilians'.) So, even if we understood half of Palestinian casualties to be 'unarmed civilians', this leaves us with a figure of around 1,500 (certainly not close to 2,000). The acknowledged number of dead from the September 11 atrocities is over 3,000. Since when has 1,500 exceeded 3,000? Competing interests: None declared ** Date submitted: 18 Oct 2004 22:20 ----------------------------------------------------------------- "Re:'Palestine: The assault on health and other war crimes.'" ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Sirs, By the use of inadequate research, sweeping statements and misuse of statistics you present an over-simplified and disgracefully biased view of this 'Palestinian' engineered tragedy. Despite years of 'Intifada' (uprising) the battle being fought is for international opinion, and not a homeland for Arabs in Israel. I share Dr Summerfield's concern for Israel's indigenous Arab population; it is tragic that by gross mismanagement of funds intended for humanitarian aid, the 'Palestinian' leadership shows such disregard for the welfare of its own people. Deaths are the symptom but the disease is terrorism. The Institute for Counter-Terrorism publishes authoritative, verified data with informed analysis and interpretation: anecdotal submissions will simply not do for the BMJ. Similarly, the BMJ should not be the forum for ill-informed bias to be peddled in the guise of medical review. Do what you set out to, BMJ, and do it well. Do otherwise and you will discard credibility and earn disgust.

THE ARTICLE ABOUT MEDICINE IN PALESTINE IS INACCURATE AND NOT BASED ON FACTS. EXAMPLES: 1.THE MAJORITY OF THE CAUSALITIES WERE ARMED TERRORIST AND COMBANTANT—BUT YOU LIST THEM AS ALL UNARMED 2. THE FACT THAT SOME CHILDREN SUFFERED OR DIED FROM CHEST AND HEAD WOUNDS IS A SHAME--BUT THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT SOLDIERS WERE AUTHORIZED TO DO SO. AND WERE THE CHILDREN THAT WE SEE ON THE NEWS THROWING ROCK, MOLOTOV COCKTAILS AND OTHER OBJECTS AT SOLIDIERS? 3. THERE WAS NO MENTION OF THE ISRAELI CHILDREN BLOWN TO PIECES WHILE THEY ATE PIZZA, KILLED FROM ROCKETS LANDING ON THEM OR SHOT IN THEIR BEDS. AND NO MENTION THAT THE KILLING OF ISRAELIS HAS BEEN DONE WITH IMPUNITY FROM THE PALESTIAN GOVERNMENT OR PRESS. DR.

The figures quoted regarding the loss of life are a gross exaggeration when compared to the loss of life on Sept 11. The lack of balance is also almost to the degree of humour if it was not truly such a horror. The fact that the terrorists specifically target the civilian population and like the cowards that they are, they then hide among their own civilian population demonstrate what they are, repugnant excuses for humans. The fact that their children are encouraged to participate in becoming suicide victims or human shields and that Dr. Summerfield seems to accept this, to me appears to support that Dr. Summerfield is himself guilty of racism in the worse manner. He clearly feels that these people are not good enough for any reasonable form of freedom and self determination and should only serve as cannon fodder for their terrorist brethren. The publication of such racism is unworthy of any publication, especially one such as yours with a formerly great international following.

    Igor Tamm 1895 - 1971 Awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1958 The famous Russian physicist Igor Evgenievich Tamm is best known for his theoretical explanation of the origin of the Cherenkov radiation. But really his works covered various fields of physics: nuclear physics, elementary particles, solid-state physics and so on. In about 1935, he and his colleague, Ilya Frank, concluded that although objects can’t travel faster than light in a vacuum, they can do so in other media. Cherenkov radiation is emitted if charged particles pass the media faster than the speed of light ! For this research Tamm together with his Russian colleagues was awarded the 1958 Nobel Prize in Physics. Igor Tamm was born in 1895 in Vladivostok when Russia was still ruled by the Tsar. His father was a civil engineer who worked on the electricity and sewage systems. When Tamm was six years old his family moved to Elizavetgrad, in the Ukraine. Tamm led an expedition to He graduated from the local Gymnasium in 1913. Young Tamm dreamed of becoming a revolutionary, but his father disapproved . However only his mother was able to convince him to search for treasure in the Pamirs change his plans. She told him that his father’s weak heart could not take it if something happened to him. In 1923 Tamm was offered a teaching post at the Second Moscow University and later he was And so, in 1913, Tamm decided to leave Russia for a year and continue his studies in Edinburgh. awarded a professorship at Moscow State University.

Forthcoming in History of Economic Ideas Economics imperialism versus multidisciplinarity John B. Davis, Marquette University and University of Amsterdam 2015 STOREP Conference Plenary Lecture Shifting Boundaries: Economics in the Crisis and the Challenge of Interdisciplinarity June 11-13, 2015 Abstract: This paper examines the implications of Chicago School economist Edward Lazear’s 2000 defense of economics imperialism using standard trade theory. It associates that defense with interdisciplinarity or the idea that the sciences are relatively autonomous, but treats this defense as a mask for a more conventional imperialist strategy of promoting Chicago School neoclassicism. Lazear’s argument actually created a dilemma for Chicago regarding how it could espouse interdisciplinarity while operating in a contrary way. I argue that the solution to this dilemma was for neoclassicism to rebuild economics imperialism around neoclassicism as a theory that sees the world in its own image in a performative manner. This strategy, however, suffers from a number of problems, which upon examination ultimately lead us to multidisciplinarity or the idea that the sciences can have transformative effects on one another. This latter conception can be associated with a complexity economics approach as an alternative view of the relation between the sciences. The paper argues that this view provides a basis for pluralism in economics.

  • Coase Theorem” Asserts That in the Absence of Transaction Costs, Parties to an Externality Will Bargain to an Efficient Outcome
    Abstract The \Coase theorem" asserts that in the absence of transaction costs, parties to an externality will bargain to an efficient outcome. It also claims that the resulting level of externality-generating is inde- pendent of initial assignment of rights. It is well-known that Coase's second claim is true if utility is quasi-linear so that the valuation of externalities does not depend on wealth. This paper finds a class of preferences for which Coase's second claim is true when there are wealth effects. It presents a necessary and sufficient condition for Coase's second claim and discusses applications of this result. 1 When Was Coase Right? Ted Bergstrom∗ Economics Department, University of California Santa Barbara [email protected] June 21, 2017 ∗This paper is dedicated to the memory of Richard Cornes and Leo Hurwicz, with whom it was my privilege to share thoughts and puzzlements about this topic. I am grateful to Di Wang of UCSB for useful discussions and for steering me to the Chipman-Tian paper, and also to Guoqiang Tian for helpful discussions. 1 Ronald Coase [7] argued that the amount of damage that one party causes to another typically depends on the actions of both parties. Coase maintained that, regardless of the way that the law assigns liability, if the perpetrator and recipient are able to bargain freely, they are likely to reach an efficient outcome. Coase's paper consists of a series of examples and insightful discussions. He made no claims of a formal theorem based on explicit assumptions. The term \Coase Theorem" seems to originate with George Stigler, who explained Coase's ideas in his textbook The Theory of Price [13], pp 110-114.
