Palestine History

Tra israeliani e palestinesi chi ha torto e chi ha ragione? Chi sono i "buoni" e chi i "cattivi"? Gli israeliani, che "da vittime si sono trasformati in carnefici"? O i palestinesi, che "non vogliono altro che distruggere Israele"? E quando comincia il conflitto? A fine Ottocento, con la nascita del sionismo, negli anni Venti del Novecento o nel 1948, quando Israele viene attaccato dai paesi arabi "con l’obiettivo di annientarlo", o quando si verifica la "pulizia etnica dei palestinesi"? E perché la pace non è mai stata raggiunta?

On October 3, 1985, Leon Klinghoffer, a disabled Jewish New Yorker, and his wife boarded the Achille Lauro to celebrate their 36th wedding anniversary with a Mediterranean cruise. Four days later, four Palestinian fedayeen hijacked the Italian luxury liner and took the passengers and crew hostage. Leon Klinghoffer was shot in the head, his body and wheelchair thrown overboard. His murder became a flashpoint in the intractable struggle between Israelis and Arabs and gave Americans a horrifying preview of what it means when terrorism hits home.

"شاع فى الخطاب التحليليى العربى أن الصهيونية تضرب بجذورها فى التوراة والتلمود والتقاليد الدينية والإثنية اليهودية. وأعتقد أن ثمة خللا تصنيفيًا أساسيًا هنا، فالصهيونية، كما نحاول أن نبين فى هذه الدراسة وغيرها من الدراسات، ذات جذور غربية ثم أضيفت لها ديباجات يهودية، فالبعد اليهودى فى معظم الأحيان بعد زخرفى تبريرى، أضيف من أجل مقدرته التعبوية.

As a teenager in Palestine, Sami al Jundi had one ambition: overthrowing Israeli occupation. With two friends, he began to build a bomb to use against the police. But when it exploded prematurely, killing one of his friends, al Jundi was caught and sentenced to 10 years in prison. It was in an Israeli jail that his unlikely transformation began. Al Jundi was welcomed into a highly organized, democratic community of political prisoners who required that members of their cell read, engage in political discourse on topics ranging from global revolutions to the precepts of nonviolent protest and revolution.

Like no book before it, Preachers of Hate uncovers an ancient hatred that threatens the life and livelihood of every American. The "new" anti-Semitism targets not only Jews, but Americans specifically and the West in general. It targets our values, our lifestyle, and our freedoms. It is the single most important issue we face when trying to make sense of the Arab world.

It was a Roman historian and writer, St. Augustine, who coined the phrase "City of God" in a book of the very same title. But the city of God that Augustine was referring to was not in Jerusalem. When Augustine wrote his book, it was hundreds of years after the Jewish city of Jerusalem had been overrun and destroyed by the Roman legions; he was writing of Rome as the city of God and the center of the Roman Catholic faith.

Dalrymple contends that the nature of the kingdom of God contrasts the kingdoms of the world in that the kingdom of God manifests power through love (hence, the cross) whereas the kingdoms of the world manifest power through violence. In light of this observation, the question now becomes, “What does this mean when it comes to war, especially war in the Middle East?”

Samedi 7 octobre 2023, 6 h 30. Il ne s’agit ni d’un journal intime ni d’un journal officiel. Mais d’un journal de guerre. Guerre contre le désarroi personnel né un 7 octobre au réveil. Guerre contre la détestation des Juifs et de leur État. Guerre au jour le jour contre la nuit qui vient. Guerre contre la désinformation médiatique pour causes idéologiques, à commencer par celle de l’audiovisuel public. Cette idéologie anti-occidentale du double standard, cette préférence pour l’Autre, qui traite différemment l’immigré et le Français, le Palestinien et l’Israélien.

As a devastating war takes the lives of tens thousands of Palestinians in Gaza, and threatens thousands more, it is vital that we understand how we got here - and why. The Gaza Strip is one of the most politically significant and widely-reported-on parts of the world, but misunderstandings about this tiny piece of land and its history abound.

אבל גם שם היא משיגה את עושי מעשי העוול והאכזריות, ושם בחגווי הסלע, היא קוטלת אותם אחד לאחד. אחרי יום שכזה, מספר אבו חרב, תהיה הארץ מכוסה גוויות, הסלעים יהיו מלובנים מרוב החום, וההרים יתפוררו לאבקה שתרבץ על הארץ ככותנה צהובה.

Issues like abortion, homosexuality, and old-young earth debate often drive wedges between the church and the world. Another polarizing issue is the Arab-Israeli conflict. Evangelical support for Israel among the younger generation is dropping at an alarming rate. Why is there such division between the church and the world and even among believers themselves about this issue?

The Olive Branch from Palestine provides a new narrative of the Palestinian effort to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and offers a bold plan for ending this conflict today, a proposal that focuses on Palestinian agency and the power of the Palestinians to bring about the two-state solution, even in the absence of a fully committed Israeli partner.

While Israel is a modern and largely secular country, it is one steeped in biblical history - a place where religion still plays an active role in public life. In 70 years, it has grown from a sparsely populated strip of land into a vigorous democracy and regional superpower. Often called the Startup Nation, Israel is a world leader in a number of high-tech industries. Its democratic institutions, despite political and social polarization in recent years, are among the most enlightened in the world.

The Israeli intelligence stands out as the most knowledgeable secret service when it comes to exploiting men's emotional and sensual needs. The following book tells the stories of spies that fell for the Mossad and how the game of espionage was played by each one of them.

For over twenty years, Ittay Flescher has worked as an educator, journalist and peacebuilder in Melbourne and Jerusalem. When he woke up on the morning of October 7, 2023 to the sounds of rocket sirens over Jerusalem and later saw the devastation of Gaza in response, the grief and sadness that engulfed him—and so many others—compelled him to ask: how can we find a way forward? Following years spent facilitating dialogue between Jews, Muslims and Christians, Ittay believes that peace can only be found if we are willing to empathise with the pain of others.

Story of Rich Man and Lazarus: Hell and Heaven Described in Their Own Words is about the lives of a rich man and a homeless man and what happened to them in eternity after their respective deaths. This first-person account is based on the story of "a certain rich man" and "a certain beggar named Lazarus" that Jesus Christ shared with his disciples in the Holy Bible's Gospel of Luke (16:19-31).

Blending science and technology studies, sociology, and geography with a host of archival material, in-depth interviews, and ethnographies, The Politics of Maps explores how the geographical sciences came to be entangled with the politics, territorial claim-making, and nation-state building of Israel/Palestine.

In this panoramic account, Nir Arielli explores the history of the Dead Sea from the first Neolithic settlements to the present day. Moving through the ages, Arielli reveals the religious, economic, military, and scientific importance of the lake, which has been both a source of great wealth and a site of war. The Dead Sea weaves together a tapestry of the lake's human stories—and amidst environmental degradation and renewed conflict, makes a powerful case for why it should be saved.

Die Frage, wem das Heilige Land gehört, ist heute aktueller denn je. Die Debatten zu diesem Thema sind oft von Ignoranz und starken Emotionen geprägt, noch immer verstellen Parteilichkeit und Machtinteressen den Blick auf die politische Lage im Nahen Osten. In seinem unentbehrlichen Standardwerk wagt es Michael Wolffsohn, an überkommenen Mythen und Vorurteilen zu rütteln. Umfassend und gut verständlich erklärt er die historischen Wurzeln des Konflikts zwischen Juden und Arabern, der bis in die Gegenwart nichts von seiner Brisanz verloren hat.
