	The Head Heeb: Israel - Politics Archives
		Israeli party recruitment drives are notoriously transitory; many party members recruited for leadership races end up letting their membership lapse and voting for other parties at the general election, and relatively few become party activists.
		The importance of transparency in an area as politically explosive as land use and settlement construction cannot be overstated, and if private charities are to be assigned a quasi-state role (which is problematic in itself), they should at least be held to the same standards of accountability that apply to government agencies.
		Israeli dayanim (rabbinic judges) are appointed by a selection committee similar to the one that picks civil judges, but with a slightly different composition.

	Israeli Politics - No new Sharon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Since he was elected prime minister in 2001, Ariel Sharon has wrapped his political positions in a fog of ambiguity.
		He said his statements in the previous interview were misunderstood and those places "are not candidates for evacuation." In his conversation with U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell on Sunday, he also sent a double message.
		That is an Israeli interest, and not a surrender to dictates and American pressure.

	Israel says onus is now on Palestinians - Boston.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Tuesday's evacuation of two hard-line settlements in the West Bank was particularly significant for taking place in the heart of biblical Israel -- a stinging blow to right-wing zealots who view relinquishing land there as a betrayal of God's will.
		For their part, Palestinians remain suspicious of Israeli intentions, with settlement construction moving forward in the West Bank even as huge bulldozers demolish the remains of Jewish Gaza.
		Israelis hotly debate why Israel's 77-year-old prime minister, once the champion of Jewish settlements, suddenly became the first Israeli leader to dismantle them in the West Bank and Gaza.

	Disengagement Turns Israeli Politics Upside Down - by Ferry Biedermann
		Israelis are concerned primarily with scenarios such as the prospect of civil war, rabbis calling on soldiers to refuse orders, and settler leaders comparing the proposed evacuation of occupied territory to the Nazi atrocities of World War II.
		Sharon is facing increasing political pressure against the disengagement plan, even as the settlers failed last weekend to repeat their earlier more impressive popular mobilizations.
		But moderate Palestinians and left-wing Israelis still support the plan not because they trust Sharon or believe in unilateral steps, but first because any withdrawal from Palestinian territory should be welcomed, and secondly because such steps may create their own dynamic unintended by anybody involved.

	The Founding Myths of Israeli Politics, Conclusion
		It gave the Zionists and the Israelis an excuse to denounce any criticism of their policy in the Middle East and of their pressure groups throughout the world, assimilating it to the work of forgers.
		This denial of Israeli propaganda went almost unnoticed in France, while it destroyed the legend of "legitimate defence" which had served as a pretext for this new aggression.
		On July 25th 1940, Hans Frank, governor of Poland, confirmed that the Fürher agreed to this evacuation, but that overseas transport on that scale would not be feasible for as long as the British hold the keys to the seas.

	israelinsider: politics: Israeli security commences forcible evacuation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Thousands of Israeli security forces burst through makeshift blockades and poured into four Jewish settlements in the Gaza Strip: Neve Dekalim, Morag, Tel Katifa, and Ganei Tal early Wednesday, beginning the forcible removal of protesters who refused orders to leave the area ahead of the midnight deadline.
		Israeli leaders have said giving up Gaza and removing Israelis from their homes is painful, but essential for Israel's security.
		In the runup to forcible removal, Israeli soldiers had distributed eviction notices on Monday and Tuesday, and urged settlers to seize a last chance to leave voluntarily.

		In an occurrence that epitomises the bizarreness of Israeli politics, the right-wing, making its case against the evacuation of settlements, claims that Palestinians, too, are building illegally, and that the settlers have the right to the same consideration as those Palestinians.
		In the twisted tradition of Israeli politics, the evacuation of the same outposts is now occurring under Sharon's government, and again as a result of political rivalry, this time within the Labour Party, not the government.
		And while the Israelis may differ over their policy towards the Arabs, they are not going to quarrel over that.

	Does Israel's Leadership Need Healing? Or Evacuation!
		If my sense of what was happening was even slightly correct, then Israeli soldiers were being sent in unnecessarily on the ground to trigger a firefight with the Arab Muslim Palestinians and generate casualties of their own.
		It was illegal according to Israeli law at that time to meet with anyone in a terrorist organization, as the PLO was so classified.
		I wrote several articles then that this looked to me like a staged event to assist their mission of securing foreign pressure with the likely participants being Rabin, Peres, Arafat and the CIA (at the behest of the U.S. State Department) who were deeply experienced in launching revolts in countries outside of America.

		He expressed concerned that success was not assured: "We believe that of all the burdens we have, the inability to fulfill a government decision is the worst of all," said Karadi at the annual conference of regional authority chiefs.
		Therefore, Karadi went on, "the minute we were given the assignment to conduct the evacuation as part of the disengagement, we could not take it lightly.
		He said the Gush Katif evacuation "will be tougher than the evacuation of Yamit" in Sinai, because Gush Katif is an integral part of the Land of Israel, and thus bound up with Zionism and religious belief: "The settlement of Gush Katif is ideological and faith-based."

	Israeli Politics
		The evacuation of West Bank communities Sa-Nur and Homesh on August 23, 2005 brought to an end, in less than a week, the pullout from all 21 settlements in the Gaza Strip and four in the northern West Bank.
		Political and religious figures, who believe in freedom and tolerance, peace and mutual understanding, who are familiar with the Muslim world -- its ideas, ideologies and cultures, should take up the challenge.
		I told her that Israeli intelligence is raising an alarm in this regard, pointing to real incidents in which people who were allowed to marry in the past, and became Israeli citizens, were later involved in terrorist attacks against Israel.

		Emergency situations include those arising from restrictions on movement within the territories; from violence; from delays in the evacuation of the injured, the sick, and women in labor; and from the blockage of humanitarian aid such as food, medicine and water.
		HaMoked does not include a single mention of the 420 Israeli fatalities in 2002 - including 45 children - and thousands wounded - rendering the entire analysis a highly cynical anti-Israel exercise devoid of moral content.

		Palestinian resistance and international pressures are widening the rift in Israeli society between the secular, business-driven costal communities that flourish on stability, peace and open frontiers and the religious and extremist segments that thrive on conflict, tensions and the idea of a Greater Israel.
		Regular vigils were held by a group of Israeli women to protest over the occupation, and soon their idea spread from country to country, wherever women sought to speak out against injustice in their own part of the world.
		Asked if she would lobby EU political institutions to urge them to take a tougher stand on the wall, Vicenzi said her delegation's priority was to build a grassroots movement in Italy and across Europe to promote peace and justice in Palestine and Israel.

		DEBKAfile’s political sources report that one of the prosecution’s key witnesses will be prime minister Ariel Sharon, whose legal advisers have warned him there was no way for him to avoid lengthy and repeated questioning on the witness stand and the attendant media attention.
		This is one part of the rationale that has, according to our sources, persuaded the prime minister to start planning his retirement from politics at the end of the incumbent government’s life in November 2006 - that is unless he is toppled before then - rather than run for re-election.
		The tale of the acid attack by disorderly evacuation resisters against Israeli troops and police was born on the spur of the moment amid the noise and clamor of the evacuation of the Kfar Darom synagogue in the Gaza Strip Thursday, Aug 18.

	The Daily Star - Politics - Israeli officers urge defiance of Gaza evacuation orders
		Such an order must not be carried out by a soldier, according to the state laws and the army code," the officers told their commander in the letter.
		The estimated 8,000 settlers living in the Gaza Strip are scheduled to be evacuated in June this year, as part of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's plan to unilaterally "disengage" from the Palestinian occupied territory.
		This disobedience campaign is backed by the council of rabbis in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, which has also urged soldiers to refuse orders to expel settlers from their Gaza homes.

		It took the army just six days to clear residents out of all 21 Gaza settlements and four in the West Bank - the same time it took for Israel to capture Gaza, the West Bank, Sinai and the Golan Heights during the 1967 Mideast war.
		Tuesday's evacuation of two hardline settlements in the West Bank was particularly significant for taking place in the heart of biblical Israel, a stinging blow to right-wing zealots who view relinquishing land there as a betrayal of God's will.
		Success in Gaza also depends on Israeli willingness to allow Palestinians to have a harbour and an airport, keeping borders open for the movement of goods and people.

	The Daily Star - Politics - Israeli Cabinet approves Gaza pullout
		Sharon, who is hoping the Gaza withdrawal will allow Israel to strengthen its grip on parts of the West Bank, also won endorsement for a revised route of the vast separation barrier which the Palestinians fear is designed to pre-empt the boundaries of their promised state.
		Under the terms of the plan, all 8,000 Gaza settlers and another 300 from four isolated settlements in the northern West Bank are due to be evacuated by autumn.
		"Sharon has carried out a political putsch, having transformed his government from the right to the left, whose only goal is to eradicate the Jewish settlements of Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) and Gaza," the Yesha settlers' council said in a statement.

		A debate has started in Israel about the evacuation of certain settlements by Israeli Defense Minister Binyamin Ben-Eliezer.
		In the twisted tradition of Israeli politics, the evacuation of the same outposts is now occurring under Sharon's government, and again as a result of political rivalry, this time within the Labor Party, not the government.
		Going back further, one may recall that some of the existing settlements were built between 1974 and 1977, at the behest of then-Defense Minister Peres who wanted to undermine the authority of his boss, then-Prime Minister Rabin.

		In other words, even if the Israelis were filmed shooting, which they weren't, it was physically impossible for them to have wounded either Mohammed or his father Jamal Al Durrah, who were crouched, entirely out of view, behind a barrel topped by a cement cinder block.
		Later in the episode, Israelis disguised as UN workers visit a Palestinian school, ostensibly to examine the children's eyes for diseases, but in reality to select which children's eyes to steal to be used for transplants.
		In Episode 2, the audience learns that the Israeli president is being kept alive by organs stolen from Palestinian children, and an Israeli military commander is seen kidnapping UN employees and Palestinians.

		The government of Israel could not have picked a day with worse symbolic meaning on which to initiate the forced removal of Jews from parts of the land of Israel promised to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
		Since the forced removal of the Jewish Gazans also involves settling them in another place ('settling' in Hebrew is grammatically connected to the word shevet), some obtuse army officer concluded that this codeword might put a positive and quasi-biblical spin on the whole process.
		We tend to be divided on political issues, as are many other Israelis.
