Showing titles in Israel & Palestine

The best example of a country, from beginning to end, is Israel's history as told in the Bible. Because they did not follow God's commandments, they eventually lost their country for over two thousand years. This book examines Israel's history and compares it to what we are doing in America today. There are several sins we are practicing today in America that are the same as Israel's. I list some of the sins we are practicing today and the Bible's condemnation of those sins.

Richard J. Samuelson analizza le vicende politiche, storiche e sociali della Palestina dalla fine dell’800 ai giorni nostri. La questione palestinese rappresenta a tutt’oggi una ferita dolorosamente aperta, un rebus geopolitico complesso e, probabilmente, inestricabile. Da un lato la difficile e complicata nascita di Israele, dall’altra il limbo dello Stato Palestinese e delle popolazioni arabe nei territori occupati e nei campi profughi.

Este libro reconstruye una de las historias nacionales más debatidas, la de un Estado que apela al más remoto de los tiempos, el del Antiguo Testamento, como una de sus fuentes de legitimación. Para dar cuenta de ello, el autor se remonta al pasado del pueblo judío en las tierras bíblicas y...

Colmadas de datos y análisis históricos, estas páginas transparentan el contexto del conflicto árabe-israelí, el rol del fundamentalismo islámico promovido por Irán y Qatar, y la violencia de quienes, con desconocimiento o mala fe, se manifiestan contra Israel y los judíos con un antisemitismo permisivo y mordaz, desatado con virulencia a partir del 7 de octubre. Hoy, advierte la autora, están en juego las libertades y los valores democráticos de Occidente.

Before any type of unified political entity named Israel existed, the Jewish groups whose descendants would later form Israel identified themselves by their particular tribe. If asked their nationality or country of origin, they would likely identify themselves as Danites (from the tribe of Dan; Ex. 31:6) or Ephraimites (from the tribe of Ephraim; Judg. 12:5), etc.

The State of Israel was founded in conflict, and in the first ten years of its existence, it was involved in two major wars with its Arab neighbors. The First Arab-Israeli War began almost the moment that the new state was announced in May 1948. Although it barely had time to create armed forces, somehow Israel survived a simultaneous invasion by armies from four Arab states during that conflict. In 1956, Israel found itself at war again, this time fighting alongside Britain and France, who had launched an invasion of Egypt after fears that the Suez Canal might be closed.

Jean Amérys Essays, die zwischen 1969 und 1976 geschrieben wurden, erschrecken geradezu durch ihre Aktualität. Sie lesen sich in ihrer Prägnanz, als wären sie für den heutigen Tag geschrieben. Ausgehend von seinem Judesein, das ihm von den Nürnberger Gesetzen aufgezwungen wurde, beschreibt Jean Améry seine existentielle Bindung an Israel, seine Solidarität ist jedoch nicht bedingungslos. Und doch ist für ihn Israel das Land, das allen entrechteten Juden der Welt den aufrechten Gang gelehrt hat.

Lo Stato di Israele venne formato nel 1948, dando luogo alla Nakba o «catastrofe»: la rimozione della nazione palestinese, causa di fratture che continuano a sfociare in forme tragiche e violente anche oggi. Negli anni che sono seguiti, mentre il muro di Berlino crollava e il Sudafrica aboliva l'apartheid, il governo israeliano ha rifiutato ogni opportunità di riconciliazione con la Palestina.

Der Anschlag vom 7. Oktober und der Gazakrieg haben die Lage im Nahen Osten dramatisch verändert. Aber auch in Deutschland: Plötzlich werden Dinge ausgesprochen, die lange ein Tabu waren, plötzlich radikalisieren sich auch hier die Haltungen. Selbst unter Freunden: Hamed Abdel Samad und Philipp Peyman Engel schreiben sich Briefe zur Lage im Nahen Osten und tauschen sich direkt und kontrovers zur Lage im Nahen Osten: Betreibt Israel in Gaza einen Genozid?

"The State of Israel is not actually a country, not a society, not a people—it is a collection of reasons," writes Amos Oz. These reasons struggle and clash with each other, screaming to the heavens, sometimes pulling out a gun in the square. The growing divide is the contemporary Israeli identity: left and right, ultra-Orthodox and secular, Mizrahi and Ashkenazi, veterans and immigrants, socialists and free-market adherents, fanatics and liberals, skeptics and idealists, Palestinians and Jews, the founding fathers and post-modern great-grandchildren.

This book is a quick overview of four topics that have profoundly impacted us in deepening our relationship with our good God. As you read this, you will first get a look at the nation of Israel. Understanding Israel will better your understanding of God's loving history with humanity. Understanding God's loving history with humanity will set you up to understand your own identity as His adopted son or daughter. As your identity is revealed, you will then have a grid to explore what intimacy with God looks like and how it can transform your life.

קו השבר ברור: מצד אחד ניצבת אליטה בעלת כושר ניידות ואוריינטציה בינלאומית, שחבריה יכולים להרגיש בבית כמעט בכל פינה ברחבי העולם; מצד שני ניצבים המוני האזרחים הנייחים האחוזים בשורשיהם: קשורים בכבלי רגש לנוף מולדתם ולמסורת עמם, תלויים לפרנסתם בשוק מקומי, ומנהלים את חייהם בשפה מקומית. מעל הכול, כוחם הפוליטי תלוי במנגנון הדמוקרטי של מדינת הלאום.

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?”

Le dichiarazioni pubbliche del Presidente del Consiglio dei Ministri Giorgia Meloni sulla prematurità del riconoscimento dello Stato Palestinese sono un clamoroso autogol politico, storico, culturale e diplomatico.

Pretendo lançar luz sobre os principais acontecimentos, personalidades e processos desde a chegada dos primeiros colonos judeus à Palestina histórica até os nossos dias, a fim de explicar por que esse conflito se tornou tão difícil de gerenciar. Espero que as injustiças infligidas aos palestinos por mais de um século inspirem os leitores, onde quer que estejam, a se solidarizar com sua luta e a se posicionar contra sua opressão.

Após o fatídico 7 de outubro de 2023, estopim de mais uma sangrenta etapa do conflito entre Israel e Palestina, estatísticas e uma profusão de imagens em torno da escalada de vítimas fatais inundam o noticiário global, num processo em que crianças, homens e mulheres se tornam conhecidos somente a partir da morte — e não da vida.

In their new book, “Because It’s Just And Right: The Untold Back-Story of the US Recognition of Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel and Moving the US Embassy to Jerusalem", Leonard Grunstein and Farley Weiss share the riveting political drama of how the Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995 was first promulgated by Senator Jon Kyl, negotiated and then passed, on a bipartisan basis, by an overwhelming majority of Congress.
