Queering Zionism: Anti-hegemonic processes of change among Jews in Israel
Author: Eitan Bronstein Aparicio 06/2013
You get the feeling sometimes that we Israelis are born into Zionism as if it was a natural phenomenon that can’t be altered, like the construction of heterosexuality. My research describes the creation of an identity that we could shed – a physical characteristic we could be rid of, remove the Zionist blotch from our skin. That require...
The Nakba Thought Police
Author: Dr. Avner Dinur 05/2013
Ten minutes before the start of class, prior to my arrival, activists from “Im Tirzu” entered the room, distributed the booklets to students who had arrived early, showed a YouTube video claiming there had been no Nakba, said a few words and hurried away before I entered the room. It seems that “Im Tirzu” operates a intelligence network to ens...

We must never forget the massacre in Deir Yassin
Author: Dina Elmuti \ The Electronic Intifada 08/04/2013
Transcribing the vivid details of the account engraved into the fabric of her memory, I am transfixed by all that she’s held onto for 65 years. From paper to pulse, I write the story buried deep in her consciousness to affirm her truth. Without her, it never would be written at all.

“Have a happy Nakba”
Author: Amaya Galili 03/2013
For years Israeli society has silenced and denied the Nakba and its own responsibility for its consequences, but in recent years the Nakba’s presence has grown. The Nakba’s presence provides educators with many opportunities to include it in their teaching. Teaching the Nakba undermines the act of erasing it from Israeli history and has the potenti...
If the house still stands: Options for the return of Palestinian refugees to their homes

Th...
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted
Author: Moran Barir 01/2013
KKL is not “green”! That’s its big lie! I was raised to believe that the KKL was at least the equivalent of Greenpeace, and today I want to shout over and over again until I and everyone else hear and believe – the KKL isn’t “green”! It isn’t “green”! It isn’t “green”! Try to say it yourself. It’s tricky at first...
