    Palestine: The State History Forgot
    righthand
    by righthand  7-9-2008    4
     Is it a joke of history that before there was the states of Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, Syria, etc there was Palestine? Now they all exist and Palestine doesn't yet. You will read that there never was a Palestine from a certain quarter and how can you miss what you never had. How you know they are lying! They'll say that as they are all Arabs that there's enough room for them all. It's like saying that the Scots Welsh and Irish are all Celts and one state would do them all! Yes, there was a time when such thinking was regarded as valid. If we had the Age of Imperialism back then the Brits might validly have a claim on the USA and most of the rest of the world. In the present imperialism, if the existent holder of the gunboat diplomacy role, the USA, decided to sort out Palestine's present difficulties it could in a breath. Hopefully in a more honourable fashion that the last gunboat holder did.

    Uri Avnery: Apologizing for past wrongs as a part of modern political culture
    Rasmus
    by Rasmus  6-16-2008    1
      I BELIEVE that peace between us and the Palestinian people - a real peace, based on real conciliation - starts with an apology. In my mind's eye I see the President of the State or the Prime Minister addressing a special extraordinary session of the Knesset and making a historic speech on the following lines: MADAM SPEAKER, Honorable Knesset, On behalf of the State of Israel and all its citizens, I address today the sons and daughters of the Palestinian people, wherever they are. We recognize the fact that we have committed against you a historic injustice, and we humbly ask your forgiveness. Uri Avnery Deutsch: Frieden in Israel und Palestina - Texte von Uri Avnery

    Jiddisch - Wiederbelebung einer Sprache, die nie tot war
    Johanna_G
    by Johanna_G  5-17-2008    3
      Jidisch ist das jiddische Wort für »jüdisch« und stammt aus dem mittelhochdeutschen judesch, das letztlich »judäisch« bedeutet (siehe jid). Im Deutschen ist das Wort jiddisch erst auf dem Umweg über Amerika populär geworden: Bis zum Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts hieß das Jiddische in Deutschland offiziell Juden-Deutsch. jiddisch.org Mehr als 10 Millionen Menschen sprachen vor dem Zweiten Weltkrieg Jiddisch als Muttersprache. Von den sechs Millionen ermordeten Juden sprach die große Mehrheit Jiddisch. Die Nationalsozialisten haben nicht nur die Menschen, sondern mit ihnen auch die Sprache fast vollkommen ausgelöscht. Die Wiederbelebung des Jiddischen nach 1945 war schwierig, aus den unterschiedlichsten Gründen. Heute gibt es nicht nur in Israel, sondern auch in Europa ein neues Interesse an der Sprache. hagalil.org

      „Wissen Sie, wir wollen einfach nicht, dass Auschwitz irgendeine Rolle im aktuellen Diskurs spielt“, schreibt die israelische Historikerin Fania Oz-Salzberger . „Wir brauchen demokratische Verbündete, nicht Mitleid und Erbarmen. Wir müssen uns alleine durchschlagen, unsere Rechnungen bezahlen, uns mit unseren Fehlern auseinandersetzen und ehrlich gemeinte Kritik akzeptieren.“ Und mit seinen „gewaltigen Fehlern“ setze sich das „Israel der Mitte“ sehr intensiv auseinander. Wir müssen nur genauer hinschauen; dann ändert sich unser von Schuldgefühlen überlagertes, negatives Israel-Bild vielleicht ganz von selbst.

    Israel and the Nakba - Coming to Terms with the Past or Simply Easing Consciences?
    Johanna_G
    by Johanna_G  4-22-2008   
      Israel will celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of its foundation this May. The celebration coincides with another sixtieth anniversary, namely that of the dispossession of Palestinians (al-Nakba) in 1948. Nevertheless, it would seem as if interest in al-Nakba is growing among young Jewish Israelis. Joseph Croitoru investigated the depth of this interest. ↗ 60 Jahre Israel und die palästinensische "Nakba" - Vergangenheitsbewältigung oder intellektuelle Mode?

    Palestine/Israel: Water and international law - Things could get worse

     The United Nations' General Assembly reaffirmed in several resolutions that the Geneva Convention (IV) relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War (1949) is applicable to the Palestinian and other Arab territories occupied by Israel since 1967, including Jerusalem, and again and again condemned Israel's policies and practices against the population in the occupied territories. Very startling, the chutzpah with which Israel withstands the imminence of being classified as a rogue state.

    Clemens Messerschmid (2003): Palästinas Wasserressourcen und Israels Trennmauer
    Johanna_G
    by Johanna_G  4-16-2008   
     Much to my regret, I did not find an English translation of the hydrogeologist Clemens Messerschmid's essay on the disastrous impacts the Israeli "security fence" makes on the Palestinian infrastructure, especially the water supply. It might be that Messerschmid's paper "TILL THE LAST DROP - The Palestinian Water Crisis in the West Bank, Hydrogeology and Hydropolitics of a Regional Conflict" is of correlative content. It is available at http://www.palestineacademy.org/wconf/ (see the abstracts on http://www.palestineacademy.org/wconf/Abstracts.pdf). Messerschmid is working in several international water projects in the West Bank, currently in the position of Research & Coordination Advisor to the Palestinian Water Authority (PWA) for the Project "The Sustainable Management of the West Bank and Gaza Aquifers" (SUSMAQ) of University of Newcastle and PWA.

    Water Policy in Israel and Palestine - There's Enough Water for Both
    Johanna_G
    by Johanna_G  4-16-2008    5
      The increasing difficulties with water availability, concludes the hydrogeologist, result from Israel using the majority of water resources for agricultural purposes, although this sector today represents a very small portion of the Israeli economy. Despite this, the Israeli state remains unswervingly committed to the Zionist foundation myth, which regards the promotion of agriculture as a central tenet in the Jewish settlement of Palestine. Messerschmid, in turn, sees the priorities of Israeli water policies as fundamentally flawed, leading to a wasteful use of the precious resource. Large areas of land, for instance, are still intensively watered even during conditions of very high temperatures, although most of the water immediately evaporates. The Palestinians, by contrast, do not even have the amount of water at their disposal that was promised in the Israeli-Palestinian peace treaty. Deutsche Fassung

     Note: Manifest Destiny was the belief that the United States was destined to expand from the Atlantic seaboard to the Pacific Ocean; it has also been used to advocate for or justify other territorial acquisitions. Advocates of Manifest Destiny believed that expansion was not only good, but that it was obvious ("manifest") and certain ("destiny").

    Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkels Rede vor der Knesset (im Wortlaut)

    by Rasmus  3-31-2008    1
      Merkel stressed that the German government supports the Annapolis peace process . "Germany stands firmly behind the vision of two states within secure borders and living in peace, for both the Jewish people in Israel and the Palestinian people in Palestine." Germany, Merkel said, would "never abandon Israel, but instead will remain a loyal partner and friend." As in the past, Merkel's speech contained only homeopathic doses of criticism of Israel's occupation policy and its hesitation to commit itself to the peace process. "One must also have the strength to make painful concessions," the chancellor hinted, only to quickly dilute what had sounded like the beginnings of a rebuke. "In order to be a realist you must believe in miracles," she said, quoting David Ben Gurion, the founder and first prime minister of the State of Israel. spiegel.de

    "Shahida – Brides of Allah". An Israeli View of Female Palestinian Terrorists

    by Johanna_G  3-10-2008    9
      Die israelische Regisseurin Natalie Assouline hat über zwei Jahre Palästinenserinnen begleitet, die nach gescheiterten Selbstmordanschlägen in Israel inhaftiert wurden. Entstanden ist ein aufwühlender Film voller Widersprüche. Als sie mit Sehnsucht über ihre Kinder sprechen, die sie nur durch die Gitter sehen können, empfindet man Mitleid mit ihnen. Als in einer Szene die 30-jährige Kahira endlich ihre vier Kinder umarmen darf, kommen dem Zuschauer Tränen in die Augen. Und das, obwohl er weiß, dass diese Mutter eine Mörderin ist. Die israelische Regisseurin Natalie Assouline porträtiert in ihrem Debütfilm palästinensische Terroristinnen. Dabei lässt sie die Zuschauer immer wieder in der Spannung zwischen Mitgefühl und Verurteilung. Der bedrückende Dokumentarfilm heißt "Shahida", auf Arabisch "die Heilige", und als Heilige sehen sich diese Gefangenen. Das ist Teil ihrer Selbsttäuschung. ( Deutscher Originalartikel )

    Micha Brumlik's Critique of Zionism - In Order to be a Realist, You Must Believe in Miracles
    Johanna_G
    by Johanna_G  3-4-2008    2
      Die Auseinandersetzung mit dem Zionismus spitzt sich oftmals polemisch zu, so dass eine nüchterne Diskussion nicht immer leicht ist. Umso erfreulicher, dass der Frankfurter Erziehungswissenschafter Micha Brumlik sich an eine Kritik wagt, die auf billige Polemik verzichtet. Ausgangspunkt ist die gegenwärtige innerjüdische Debatte um die Legitimität des Staates Israel. Brumliks Essay ist die erste systematische deutsch-jüdische Antwort auf die vereinzelten, sich starker Publizität erfreuenden israelkritischen Stimmen amerikanischer, britischer und französischer Juden, die in den letzten beiden Jahren zu hören waren. Obwohl der Autor kein Blatt vor den Mund nimmt, wenn es um die Siedlungspolitik Israels sowie um Menschenrechtsverletzungen geht, distanziert er sich doch klar von der Ablehnung Israels durch anerkannte Intellektuelle wie Tony Judt oder Alfred Grosser. Brumlik nimmt auch eindeutig Stellung gegen "Schalom 5767".

      Rosenberg appears to believe that if a peace deal is concluded, it will not contradict Biblical prophesy: "While . . . Matthew 24 and Luke 21 indicate that there will be wars, rumors of wars and revolutions in the Middle East in the last days, Ezekiel 38 also indicates that for a season at least the Jews will be living 'securely' in the land prior to the apocalyptic War of Gog & Magog (the Russian-Iranian alliance to destroy Israel)." Netanyahu said that 'In a war of attrition the enemy strikes and you react, the enemy strikes harder and you retaliate harder. This gradual increase in violence is the antithesis of deterrence. . . . Deterrence always means using disproportionate force. We need to move from a concept of attrition to one of tough deterrence that will eventually lead to the removal of the Hamas regime, because as long as it exists it will continue arming itself and continue its attacks.'

    Gaza exodus symptom of grave situation
    Rasmus

      Israel’s ability to ignore blatant human rights violations against the Palestinians derives from the great support it receives from world Jewry and Western societies. Western Jews, emancipated and empowered by the Enlightenment, are inspired by a long history of anti-Semitism that became pronounced in 19th century Europe, and culminated in the Holocaust in the mid-20th century. Many members of the Jewish American community, who were actively involved in the civil rights movement, are ill-at-ease watching events unfolding in the Middle East. Despite their disapproval of harsh and inhumane Israeli policies toward Palestinians, they are reluctant to criticize Israel for the fear that such criticism would undermine Western support. Is silence the best approach to support the Jews in the Holy Land? And is force the best approach to dealing with Palestinians demands for equal rights?

    The true miracle of Israel
    Rasmus
    by Rasmus  2-3-2008    3
      Israel's existence is portrayed as a resurrection of sorts: from near-annihilation to a "miraculous" rebirth. In the United States, Christian Zionists see their allegiance to Israel as a religious duty. When an American politician, for example, is accused of not standing "fully behind Israel," the accusation stands on its own, like a biblical command that has survived the test of time and reason: Thou shalt stand fully behind Israel. As the 60th anniversary of the so-called birth of Israel draws near, a most impressive -- albeit grotesque -- misrepresentation of that history will be offered in abundance , omitting how Israel was delivered on top of the ruins of hundreds of Palestinian towns and villages. The killing and ethnic cleansing that became known as the Palestinian Catastrophe -- or Nakba -- was not the work of invisible and miraculous seraphs, but rather well trained and well-armed Zionist gangs and their supporters.
