Palestinian Mission UK: Fact Sheet: Israeli Violations During the Nine Months Negotiations Process

Source: mass emailing

Fact Sheet: Israeli Violations During the Nine Months Negotiations Process On July 30th 2013, Israel and Palestine agreed to enter a negotiations process of nine months in order to achieve a final status agreement. With the active sponsorship of the United States and encouragement from the rest of the international community, all final status issues were supposed to be discussed, in order to achieve a two-state solution on the 1967 border. However, rather than achieving a final status agreement, Israeli occupation and colonization policies were increased, advancing settlement units for over 55,000 new settlers during the past Nine Months. In open violation of international law and its own obligations, Israel, the occupying power, continues its policies of aggression against the people of Palestine: killing dozens of Palestinians, injuring and detaining thousands, demolishing hundreds of homes, and carrying out thousands of military incursions within occupied areas. At the same time, Israel's government to incite against the Palestinian people, the Palestinian leadership, the two-state solution and the international efforts made in order to achieve peace. This report summarizes the violations committed by the Government of Israel during the past nine months of negotiations.

PLO Executive Committee Member Dr. Saeb Erekat's statement on the end of the nine months negotiations period Exactly nine months ago, the Palestine Liberation Organization, in light of the extraordinary efforts deployed by US Secretary of State John Kerry, decided to enter nine months of negotiations with the Israeli government, in order to reach a final status agreement. According to US assurances, negotiations were to be based on the 1967 border and tackle all final status issues including Jerusalem, borders and refugees, among others. It was also nine months ago when, following an extraordinarily difficult decision, President Mahmoud Abbas announced the postponement of our accession to international conventions and UN organizations in exchange for the release of 104 pre-Oslo prisoners, including Palestinian citizens of Israel. The last group of 20 prisoners are still in Israeli prisons. Unfortunately, Israel never gave the negotiations a chance to succeed. Everything Israel did during the past nine months aimed at sabotaging Palestinian and international efforts to achieve the two-state solution. To build settlements in occupied land, kill Palestinians and demolish hundreds of Palestinian homes is certainly not the behavior of a government that wants to end occupation but of a government that wants to turn occupation into annexation. Rather than using nine months to achieve a two-state solution, the government of PM Netanyahu has used every possible tool in order to consolidate its Apartheid regime. There is no other word to define this system of segregation and discrimination that has been imposed on our occupied country by the State of Israel. We remained fully committed to this 9 month process, despite an escalation of oppressive Israeli policies.  Israel should once and for all understand that negotiations are a peaceful tool towards achieving peace rather than a smoke screen behind which it can continue its violations of human rights, further its settlement enterprise and make the two-state solution increasingly impossible. Last week, using our national reconciliation as yet another pretext, PM Netanyahu decided to end the negotiations process.  If this Israeli government were sincerely interested in peace, it would have taken Palestinian national reconciliation as an opportunity for peace rather than an opportunity for a new blame game. The Central Council of the PLO met last weekend and decided that resumption of negotiations is possible upon Israel's respect of its commitments and obligations, including the implementation of signed agreements and an unequivocal compliance with the pre-1967 borders and UN resolutions. The Central council dismissed Israeli threats and the aggressive campaign against the national reconciliation process. It reaffirmed the sovereign right of Palestine to pursue its independence through diplomatic and non-violent means, including popular resistance and international instruments gained as a result of Palestine's enhancement of status to Observer State at the UNGA in November 2012. After 47 years of belligerent occupation and 66 years of exile, we owe it to our people to fulfill their rights through every legitimate mean possible. The Government of Israel, a ruling coalition representing the most extremist sectors of Israeli society, including the settler movement, never prioritized peace as a strategic objective. We believe that the international community must now do what is needed, in order to make clear to Israel that choosing settlements and Apartheid over peace has a political, legal and economic cost.

New Israel Fund: We will not be deterred.

Source: mass emailing

Debra V. -- It seems silly at first. 100 men and women are planning to blow shofars outside the UJA-Federation this evening. They're calling on the UJA to exclude NIF, Partners for a Progressive Israel, and B'Tselem from New York's Celebrate Israel Parade based on the phony charge that we support the global BDS movement. The protestors seek to narrow the margins of debate about Israel. They can't seem to come to terms with the notion that, for many thousands of us, loving Israel means not sweeping Israel's problems under the rug, but rather helping Israelis overcome the most difficult challenges Israel faces: from ending the occupation, to preserving democratic freedoms, to upholding women's rights. So what's the big deal about 100 protesters in Manhattan, especially when the UJA, the JCRC, and so many in the organized Jewish community are standing with us? Sadly, the shofar blowers are getting support from Israeli extremists, including those in positions of real influence. Just yesterday Knesset Member Yariv Levin -- chairman of Prime Minister Netanyahu's coalition and the author of anti-democratic legislation -- wrote them a letter of support. What I have come to understand is that there is a visceral connection between those protesting the UJA and the ultra-nationalist settlers who hold so much influence in the current Israeli government. Both seek to narrow the scope of acceptable discourse. Both are emboldened by the collapse of the peace process. Both want to rip Israel away from its heritage as a liberal democracy. NIF is committed to the proposition that Israel can be simultaneously a Jewish homeland and a democracy where everyone participates in a shared and just society. You and I know, however, that this vision of Israel is jeopardized by the rise of political forces bent on delegitimizing progressive Israelis, marginalizing Israel's Arab minority, and shutting out women's voices. We also know that the answer to this threat is to help ordinary Israelis fashion a better Israel. This has been the core of NIF's work for more than 30 years. The time has also come for us to step up our investment to change the public discourse in Israel and to rebuild the pro-democracy, progressive camp. You will be hearing more from me soon about the bold steps we are initiating to shift the national direction from greater exclusion toward greater openness. The noisy extremists will not deter us. Not from marching in the Celebrate Israel Parade, nor from pushing for social change. We will continue to provide the support that Israel's champions of democracy need to build a better Israel. We will be at the parade on June 1st, and I hope you will join us with your family and friends. Click here to sign up and march with the New Israel Fund. Also, please take a second and forward this message to any of your friends or family in the Tri-State area who are committed to Israel and to progressive values. Thank you for your partnership. Daniel Sokatch, CEO New Israel Fund P.S. -- This squabble over the parade in New York has been generating a ton of press. Here are a few good ones, and a great one by our NY/Tri-State director.

	Isis WICCE panel analyses women, war and peace possibilities at the CSW58 Isis-Women's International Cross-Cultural Exchange (Isis-WICCE) contributed to the myriad of thought-provoking discourses on women's states in conflict-ridden areas at the recently concluded 58th session of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) by spearheading an NGO parallel event called Supporting Urgent Human Rights Interventions in Conflict Settings: Women Defenders share their field experiences held last 19 March 2014. The event began with opening remarks by Jenna Capeci, the director of the Civil and Political Rights Dept. of the American Jewish World Service. The panellists included Tatiana Cordero, the executive director of Urgent Action Fund – Latin America; Helen Kezie Nwoha, programme manager of Isis-WICCE in Uganda; human rights activist Justine Masika Bihamba from Congo; women's rights activist Ezabir Ali from India; Nepali activist Astha Sharma Pokharel; and lawyer Ms. Maria Adelaida Palacio of HUMANAS in Colombia. Monica Aleman of the Ford Foundation's East Africa office served as the moderator. The panellists surfaced issues that still beset women in countries where conflict situations are still on-going. Regardless of humanitarian efforts and human rights-based approaches in peace processes, they say some structures still need to be refined as the continuing conflicts tend to produce newer concerns that affect women anew, rendering previous efforts as lacking, out-dated or invalid. But the bottom line still remains: as long as there is a war fuelled by the search for wealth and the accumulation of natural resources, conflict will remain, and women will bear the brunt of it. There is also a call to end war in general. In countries where there should already be peace negotiations, it's a different situation if women are left out of the table. This is a reason why women's situations remain the same in these areas, as women's concerns are not specifically addressed. There is also some backsliding to commitments. For example, in Colombia, there is no repatriation for women and their efforts or work is not recognised. While states may say that they support women's rights, the actual behaviour does not reflect it in practice. This is more frustrating for women who experience first-hand harassment and opposition for the peace work they do. This is why economic development remains shaky in such countries since the men in power do not include the connections of women's lives, affected livelihood and growing poverty, continued displacement and removed access from education of children in the overall peace negotiations or talks. This is also why, for women human rights defenders, the common issues still prevail. There is still unfair impunity and criminalisation, life risks for women human rights defenders are growing, and their families are targeted in persecution of their work as defenders. Sexual and gender-based violence are still being inflicted upon these women, as the war uses women's bodies as secondary battlegrounds. Research shows, for instance, that in Nicaragua and Colombia, abuses are done by paralegal groups and police who want to instil fear among activists. Even the state perpetuates violence, so how can real peace be installed? Thus, further strategies and recommendations were forwarded by the panel, as everyone agreed that support for human rights defenders is also very important to seek and apply. There is a need to promote women human rights leaders as thought leaders. Inequality in services, especially for victims, should also be addressed. For women human rights defenders to be able to help further, strategies were identified as possible steps to take in their work. It was again stressed that women need to be included in the peace negotiations. Women organisations need to develop peace platforms for women to talk and participate in the peace processes. Effective advocacy strategies need to be drawn up, as well as having strategic litigation and far-reaching communication campaigns to address information dissemination regarding the magnitude of the situation in several areas. Training of authorities was also recommended. And in order to sharpen such strategies, a feminist framework was recommended to be used. Helen of Isis WICCE, in particular, mentioned that there should be a response to the needs of women that comes from feminist principles. Citing examples of their work with Congolese refugees in Uganda, little is known about what happens to women when they flee. With help from Urgent Fund, they were able to quickly make an assessment and produces helpful findings. Further, she recommends a review of refugee-related United Nations (UN) instruments for these have the tendency to be gender-blind. Ruth of Isis WICCE further stressed that women need their own platform in this situation. She urged everyone on "how we, as progressives, use alternatives for peace." She further recommended to "break the silence and come back as feminists." Noting that efforts of reconstruction of peace and security are wrong, where men are coming from a different alternative of peace and security, there is a need to dismantle the ideas of peace and security from a women's centre. Amidst these continuing struggles, peace and hope still fuel more women into achieving their goals. A crucial point summarises this hope as "the hope to be able to reposition the world in which we are living." And for all women human rights defenders, this is achievable if women are included more in each and every step of the way. Parallel thoughts, insights and input were somehow reflected in the outcomes document of the CSW58 covering similar themes and other relevant themes as well. The agreed conclusions could be read at the UN Women site here.

The Perception & Reality of "Imported Conflict" in Canada

Join us for a FREE dialogue with John Monahan, the Executive Director of the Mosaic Institute

Do immigrants who have left behind violent conflict when they came to Canada “import” those same disputes with them? How do new Canadians' past experiences and memories of violent conflict affect their ability to attach to other Canadians, including those who at one time might have been their committed adversaries? Does our diversity actually risk undermining our ability to achieve meaningful social cohesion and perhaps even threaten our national security, or does living in Canada somehow transform our relationship to overseas conflict? Join us to hear the answers to these questions and more ...

 

Israel Defense Forces: Autism in the IDF: Meet the Soldiers of Intelligence Unit 9900

Autism in the IDF: Meet the Soldiers of Intelligence Unit 9900

Published on: April 10, 2014

221

Special intelligence Unit 9900 is dedicated to everything related to geography, including mapping, interpretation of aerial and satellite photographs and space research. Within this unit there is a small unit of highly qualified soldiers, who have remarkable visual and analytic capabilities. They can detect even the smallest details, undetectable to most people.

The uniqueness of this elite group of intelligence soldiers in Unit 9900 lies in the fact that they are all diagnosed on the autism spectrum. We interviewed Col. J, the commander of Unit 9900, in order to learn more about this inspiring group of soldiers.

This a soccer field in Gaza. In depicts a before and after image of a hidden weapons Cache.

First time in history

“After many doubts and expectations the project came to light after almost a year of processing. There were many problems along the way. The actual process took about a year and I want to say that we started with the assumption that this could, should and would succeed,” says Colonel J, confessing that the success of this project exceeded the optimistic expectations of its initiators. “The concerns were understandable, because I knew nothing about autism. The result was a task of trial and error. Everything we did was happening for the first time in the history of the IDF. We planned, worked and focused until we achieved success.”

How does this group fit in with the other soldiers?

“They have excellent relations with the soldiers of the unit – from time to time, out of the building where they work I see them sitting with others in the unit, having lunch or just having a cup of coffee. No one forces them to do so. It is very natural, and I think that says it all.”

What type of work do they do?

“Their job is to take visual materials from satellite images and sensors that are in the air. With the help of their officers and decoding tools, they analyze the images and find specific things they need in order to allow those who are planning a mission to get the best data of the area.”

How it all began–The RR Plan

Mr. V and Ms. S, veterans of the IDF and the Intelligence organizations, introduced an idea – to utilize the special strengths of people on the autistic spectrum for the needs of the IDF and Israeli intelligence.

They contacted Unit 9900, who showed great interest in the idea and decided to be a partner for the first trial – interpretation of aerial and satellite photographs.

They then Contacted the Ono Academic College – a private academic institution and registered NGO, which also has a school for health professions. Ono Academic College has a vision of “Changing the face of Israeli society,” and therefore its management decided to Join the initiative, and together they set up the RR Program – (Roim Rachok – which in Hebrew means looking far beyond the horizons).

The aim of the RR Plan is to teach people on the autistic spectrum professions that utilize their special abilities, thus creating a Win-Win effect. The courses take place in the Ono Academic College. After the students finish the 3 month course, they join the army, where the RR program is still involved in guidance and assistance of the soldiers and their commanders.

Today, when everyone can see the success of the first trial course graduates, the RR plan is developing two more courses that utilize other strengths of the autistic spectrum. One course is for software quality assurance (QA) and the other is for information management. Both courses are developed in cooperation with Intelligence Units of the IDF, which will eventually be the home units for the course graduates.

Unit 9900’s special contribution

It is important to remember that people on the autism spectrum have strengths in music, mathematics, as well as the visual field. These autistic soldiers of Unit 9900 play a major role in intelligence gathering–a role not easily filled due to the difficulty of the task that this unit. The IDF believes in the ability of these autistic soldiers and will continue to work for their advancement in military and civilian life.
