Palestinian Christians and 60 Minutes (cont'd)

MAY 2 2012 - By Robert Wright - In the wake of the controversy over last week's 60 Minutes episode on Palestinian Christians, the Israeli website 972 today runs an illuminating post by a Palestinian Christian, Philip Farah. On the question of whether Christians are being driven out of the occupied territory by Islamic radicals or by Israeli policies, Farah writes:

Palestinian Christians are, indeed, worried about the militancy of extremists who cloak themselves in distorted Islamic rhetoric. Yet, the majority of Palestinian Muslims and Christians have chosen peaceful resistance. To say that Hamas is the cause of the declining Christian population in the occupied Palestinian territories is standing the truth on its head.

Our people are fleeing their homeland because the Israelis are confiscating the land of Palestinians -- Muslims and Christians alike -- to build Jewish-only settlements and the Apartheid Wall which is ghettoizing many Palestinian communities. Palestinian Christians are leaving because of Israeli checkpoints and barriers that severely restrict the freedom of movement of Palestinians, destroying their economy and preventing their access to their holy places in Jerusalem. They are leaving because Israel diverts Palestinian water resources in a way that gives illegal Jewish settlements the right to enjoy swimming pools while the fields of Palestinian farmers next door go fallow for lack of water.

This testimony meshes with the one piece of evidence on this issue that I got first-hand. During a trip to Israel and the West Bank last summer, the group I was with visited a Palestinian brewery in the village of Taybeh. After touring the brewery, before getting back on the bus, a few of us were chatting with a Palestinian woman who was one of the brewery's proprietors. Small talk about how her business was doing led her into a pretty intense discussion of the occupation. She didn't deliver a political rant--she didn't talk about Palestinians lacking the right to vote or due process of law. She just talked about how her brewery couldn't count on the things an American-based company would take for granted--consistent access to water, electrical power, etc.--because these were under the control of Israelis who didn't seem very attentive to the needs of Palestinians. 

But however mundane her critique, it was no less animated for that. And after watching this articulate, forceful testimony from a Palestinian woman with a cross around her neck, I said to a traveling companion something to the effect that, if you could get this woman on American TV, that could change some American opinions about the Palestinian predicament. I think that's one reason the Israeli government was so concerned about the 60 Minutes broadcast: It provided first-hand testimony about the grim reality of the Israeli occupation from people large numbers of Americans might actually believe.

60 Minutes on the Plight of Palestinian Christians

APR 23 2012

Last night's 60 Minutes segment about the plight of Christians in the West Bank has gotten a lot of attention, in part because of the attempt by Israeli ambassador Michael Oren to intervene with CBS brass while the segment was being put together. (See the 11-minute point in the video below, where CBS correspondent Bob Simon confronts Oren with this fact.)

You can see why Oren might rather the piece hadn't aired. Things that Palestinian Muslims routinely say about the Israeli occupation may get more traction in America when Palestinian Christians say them. Such as this, from a Christian clergyman: "The West Bank is becoming more and more like a piece of Swiss cheese, where Israel gets the cheese--that is, the land the water resources, the archaeological sites, and the Palestinians are pushed in the holes."

Also, Oren clearly doesn't want this document, mentioned by Simon, to get attention. In it an interdominational group of Middle Eastern Christian clergy--Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant--refer to the occupation as "clear apartheid." (Oren hints that they're anti-Semitic.)

Finally, the 60 Minutes piece complicates the post-9/11 Israeli narrative according to which Israel and Judeo-Christian America are involved in a common struggle against Islamic radicals, and the occupation should be viewed in that context. Hence the importance of the moment when Oren insists Christians are leaving the West Bank under duress from Islamic radicals, not because of the occupation, and Simon presents testimony to the contrary.

Notwithstanding Oren's understandable qualms, the piece struck me as legitimate and balanced. Its subject--the ongoing exodus of Christians from the Holy Land--is of undeniable interest to American viewers. And Simon emphasizes that Israel isn't singling out Christians for persecution; their plight is simply the plight of Palestinians in general--a plight that, Simon notes, is due partly to actions taken by Israel to secure itself against terrorism. Now that Oren has had a chance to see the 60 Minutes piece, I'd be interested in hearing what, if any, parts of the story he thinks CBS should have included but didn't.

Israel must be prepared for future confrontation with Egypt, says ex-Defense Minister

In a wide-ranging interview with TheMarker, Benjamin Ben-Eliezer says ties with Egypt must be maintained at all costs.

In the summer of 2005, Israeli-Egyptian relations were rosy. Sitting around a conference table one day were executives from the Israel Electric Corporation and the Egyptian-Israeli East

Mediterranean Gas Company. Sitting across from them were Egypt's petroleum minister and his Israeli counterpart, fresh from their meeting with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. Facing the cameras, which captured their visible excitement, the two signed off on the agreement that would bring Egyptian natural gas flowing into Israel.

By Avi Bar-Eli and Sami Peretz

Last week the optimism of that sunny summer day dissolved completely. The $500-million gas pipeline running through the Sinai peninsula was sabotaged 14 times in as many months. The IEC stands at the edge of a financial abyss. EMG is falling apart. The moribund Mubarak is waiting to be convicted of killing his own people. Egypt's former petroleum minister, Sameh Fahmy, was arrested on suspicion of government corruption. His erstwhile Israeli counterpart, former Defense Minister and National Infrastructures Minister, and current Labor Party MK Benjamin "Fouad" Ben-Eliezer, made a miraculous recovery a year ago from a virulent bacterial infection of his lungs, only to watch the collapse of the edifice he had worked so carefully to build.

"I felt a pang in my heart," Ben-Eliezer told TheMarker, speaking about the collapse of the natural gas deal. "Egypt is a pivotal state for Israel. People have no idea of its significance. It was the stabilizing force of Saudi Arabia and the Gulf emirates and in effect controlled the Arab League. Its loss will be a very big blow to us. From now on it will be a completely different story. The (Egyptian ) army is weakening, losing its autonomy to the benefit of the government. That is bad for us. It is vital that we maintain the relationship with Egypt at any price."

The first Egyptian gas arrived in Ashkelon on May 1, 2008. "The gas contract reinforced the peace treaty, and was therefore historic primarily on account of its strategic implications, and only afterward on account of its economic implications." But no one who has been listening to the remarks of Israeli cabinet ministers over the past week would come to that conclusion. The message dictated by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is: The suspension of gas delivery is not the result of political developments; it is, in effect, a business dispute between an Israeli company and an Egyptian company.

Both states signed off as guarantors of the gas contract, explains Ben-Eliezer. "I saw in that agreement the most important added value for the State of Israel, because what is the significance of the peace treaty by itself? Nothing. It has no meaning, it is merely a non-belligerence agreement."

How do you explain Bibi's PR argument?

"Bibi, with some justification, wishes for himself a situation in which relations with Egypt continue as they are. He is doing the right thing. I too would be very happy were a way to be found to renew the relationship between Egypt and EMG, and to also talk about a new gas contract and new prices. But if we look at the declarations of all the Egyptian presidential candidates we find there isn't one who does not speak of his intention to cancel the gas project after he is elected."

In other words, the Egyptian decision to cancel the gas contract is political?

"Absolutely political. There is no way for the gas pipeline to be turned off without the approval of the political leadership. On the other hand, it must be remembered that this is a temporary transitional government, so we must wait and see what the permanent government does. Bibi talks about us being a natural gas superpower, and it's true. But despite our power, I want to maintain the gas contract (with Egypt ) at any price, because of its importance in reinforcing the peace.

"When I learned of the cancelation, I made a statement I later regretted, that in essence the last link in the peace between us and Egypt had been broken. I see the Middle East as more religious, more Islamic, more anti-Israel, while the rest of the world is on a delegitimization campaign against us, while itself coping with difficult problems. I don't see the Middle East settling down over the next three or four years.

"Voices of opposition to the Egyptian-Israeli natural gas project first surfaced four years ago, and they took a practical turn immediately after the fall of the Mubarak regime, in February of last year, whether through grassroots calls for its cancelation, through the hunt launched against figures involved in it in Egypt or by bombing the Sinai pipeline."

In 2005 you saw a small number of people profiting personally from the gas contract, while at the same time there was no improvement for the millions of poor farmers in the Egyptian Delta. You didn't think it would fall apart eventually?

"As a cabinet minister, I make one single calculation - the good of my country. Israel was looking to get natural gas as quickly as possible, so I traveled between Moscow, Turkey and Egypt. I met with [Vladimir] Putin, and twice with the CEO of [Russian gas giant] Gazprom. I built a friendly relationship with Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan and with his petroleum minister. I didn't make socioeconomic calculations for an entire nation, but instead, I was interested only in the speed with which I could build the gas pipeline between Sinai and Ashkelon."

And that's ethical?

"Yes. You must always ask yourself which value you put first, and in my eyes reinforcing the peace was a supreme value. The gas contract was with Yossi Maiman's EMG. I didn't care about anything except laying the pipeline, and I was not involved in any of the financial negotiations."

Had you listened two years ago to Jordan's King Abdullah, perhaps you would have recognized that the gas project was viewed negatively by the Egyptian people.

"There was a reason why I said that even while talking, we must also be prepared for war. Look at what's happening in Sinai. There are already factories for making missiles and giant warehouses of explosives and rifles. The area today includes all the known terror organizations in the Middle East as well as serving as a base for the sabotage activities of the Bedouin shabab [Arabic term for youths with too much time on their hands]."

Is Sinai a lost cause?

"The best period for Sinai and the Bedouin who inhabit it was when Israel controlled it. Businesses flourished, tourism was at its peak, the fishing was unrestricted. Sinai today is a powder keg. There's chaos there."

So what's the solution?

"I very much hope that the new Egyptian government will get on its feet and get back to being in charge there, but the question is who will control the presidency - The Salafis? The Muslim Brotherhood? Because the protest has not calmed down. It is still there, and it is not dying down."

Is the peace agreement already a dead letter?

"On the time axis, [we] must be prepared for the possibility of a confrontation with Egypt. I hope I am wrong, and I would like nothing more than for the next [Egyptian] government to want to sit down with us. If I were a consultant to the next Egyptian president I would tell him to maintain the peace agreement at any price; first, because every year it gives him $2 billion in U.S. aid and second, because he will be incapable of spending a fortune on readying the army for confrontation, while the nation is crying. Egypt has 85 million people, and a third of them earn less than $2 per day."

What would you advise him with regard to the natural gas contract?

"To carry through with it. Otherwise there will only be the peace treaty on paper, and I also want good neighborly relations, security coordination and embassies. In my eyes the gas pipeline is as important as the peace agreement."

Why do you think Fahmy and Mubarak's sons, with whom you signed the gas contract, arrested?

"Am I an expert on corruption? Does it seem likely to you that if I were getting a monthly payment from Egypt the Mossad wouldn't hear about it?"

Former Mossad chief Shabtai Shavit also received $11 million from Maiman for services rendered [after he retired].

"And in one payment," (Ben-Eliezer says, laughing ).

You recently bought an apartment in Jaffa for NIS 9 million.

"And in a rare step, I submitted a detailed account of all the sources of the payment, including the mortgage I intend to apply for."

If every possible stone in the matter of the gas project were to be overturned, would you come out of it looking good?

"I'd come out of it a prince. The rest of them? I have no idea. My guess is that no official Israeli [individual or agency] is involved, and I don't believe that any Israeli element got its hands dirty over it. It's hard for me to believe that I wouldn't have heard about it by now. I have got wind of many different things that were checked immediately."

Are you still in close contact with any of the Egyptians?

"In the past I was in touch with General [Mohamed Hussein] Tantawi [commander-in-chief of the Egyptian Armed Forces, chairman of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces and defense minister], but that has faded too. Any ties to Israel are bad for them, and they are very sensitive to what is happening here. Every word that appears in our press is immediately translated for Cairo."

بن أليعازر: المواجهة الحربية مع مصر حتمية ويجب الاستعداد لها

فجر وزير الدفاع الإسرائيلى الأسبق بنيامين بن أليعازر عددا من التصريحات النارية عن العلاقات بين مصر وإسرائيل وعلاقته بالمشير طنطاوى وإلغاء صفقة الغاز فى حوار مطول مع صحيفة "هاآرتس" الإسرائيلية نشرته اليوم، الثلاثاء، على صفحتين كاملتين.

 وقال بن أليعازر إن على إسرائيل أن تكون مستعدة لاحتمال مواجهة حربية مع مصر فى المستقبل القريب، مضيفا بأن هذه المواجهة المتوقعة أصبحت حتمية وعلى الجيش الإسرائيلى الاستعداد لها.

 وأضاف أليعازر خلال لقاء مطول مع صحيفة "هاآرتس" الإسرائيلية "إن مصر دولة محورية بالنسبة لإسرائيل، فهى كانت من عوامل الاستقرار فى الأمارات والمملكة العربية السعودية والخليج العربى، وهى تسيطر أيضا على الجامعة العربية، وخسارتها ستكون ضربة كبيرة بالنسبة لنا".

 وأكد وزير الدفاع الإسرائيلى الأسبق أن يجب على تل أبيب أن تكون مستعدة للحرب، مضيفا "انظروا إلى ما يحدث فى سيناء، فهناك مصانع لصنع الصواريخ ومستودعات ضخمة من المتفجرات والبنادق، بل أصبحت سيناء جزءا من استقرار المنظمات الإرهابية فى الشرق الأوسط، وكذلك تنظيم القاعدة".

 وزعم بن أليعازر أن أفضل فترة لسيناء والبدو الذين يقطنون فيها عندما كانت إسرائيل تسيطر عليها، فالأعمال ازدهرت، والسياحة كانت فى ذروته، وكان الصيد غير المقيد، ولكن الآن سيناء أصبحت برميل بارود وتعيش فى حالة من الفوضى."

 وقال بن أليعازر الذى يشغل حاليا نائبا بالكنيست الإسرائيلى "إنه من الآن ستكون القصة مختلفة تماما، فالجيش المصرى قد تضعف سيطرته لصالح حكومة مدنية جديدة، وهذا أمر سيء بالنسبة لنا، ومن المهم أن نحافظ على العلاقة مع مصر بأى ثمن".

 وعن إلغاء صفقة الغاز من جانب السلطات المصرية مع إسرائيل قال بن أليعازر: "إن هذا الاتفاق مهم بالنسبة لإسرائيل، ورئيس الحكومة بنيامين نتانياهو يود استمرار العلاقات مع مصر وأنا أؤيد ذلك"، زاعما بأن هناك عقدا جديدا للغاز بأسعار مناسبة قد يتم توقيعه قريبا تم بحثه بين الجانبين مؤخرا.

 وأضاف نائب الكنيست "وقف صفقة الغاز هو قرار سياسى، ولا يمكن إيقافها أبدا من دون موافقة القيادة السياسية فى مصر، ومن ناحية أخرى يجب أن نتذكر بأن هذه حكومة انتقالية مؤقتة لذلك يجب علينا أن ننتظر ونرى ما هو شكل الحكومة الجديدة الدائمة".

 وردا على سؤال هل اتفاق السلام مع مصر أصبح بالفعل حبرا على ورق؟، قال بن أليعازر: "أكرر مرة أخرى يجب أن نكون مستعدين لاحتمال حدوث مواجهة مع مصر، وآمل أن أكون مخطئا، ولا أريد أكثر من أن تجلس الحكومة المصرية القادمة معنا، وأنا إذا كنت مستشارا للرئيس المصرى القادم سأقول له بأن يحافظ على اتفاق السلام بأى ثمن، وذلك لأنه فى كل عام تمنح واشنطن القاهرة 2 مليار دولار كمساعدات للحفاظ على هذا الاتفاق، وفى الوقت نفسه فى حال حدوث مواجهة مع إسرائيل من جانب مصر فوضع الجيش لن يسمح بخوضها فى ظل الوضع الاقتصادى الصعب الذى تعيشه البلاد هناك، فمصر لديها 85 مليون شخص، وثلثهم من يكسبون أقل من 2 دولار فى اليوم الواحد".

 وأشارت هاآرتس إلى أن بن أليعازر كان من بين المسئولين الإسرائيليين الذين ساهموا فى تنفيذ صفة الغاز بين القاهرة وتل أبيب، وهو الذى وقع العقد أمام كاميرات الفضائيات مع نظيره المصرى سامح فهمى عندما كان يشغل منصب وزير البنية التحتية.

 وأضافت الصحيفة العبرية أن بن أليعازر الذى تم علاجه مؤخرا بأعجوبة قبل عام من عدوى جرثومية قاتلة فى رئتيه، أكد بأن فى عام 2005 رأيت عددا صغيرا من الناس فى مصر يستفيدون شخصيا من عقد الغاز مع إسرائيل، بينما فى الوقت نفسه لم يكن هناك أى تحسن للملايين من المزارعين الفقراء فى الدلتا المصرية، وبالتالى قد اعتقد أن هذا العقد سينتهى فى يوم ما.

 وأشارت الصحيفة الإسرائيلية إلى أن أول كمية من الغاز المصرى وصلت لإسرائيل فى عسقلان فى 1 مايو، 2008، وأنه هذه الاتفاقية عززت معاهدة السلام التاريخية.

 وقال بن أليعازر: "لقد أصبح الشرق الأوسط تدينا، وأكثر إسلامية، وأكثر المناهضة لإسرائيل، فى حين أن بقية العالم يسعى لنزع الشرعية ضدنا، وأنا لا أرى أن الشرق الأوسط سيستقر على مدى السنوات الثلاث أو الأربع المقبلة".

 وردا على سؤال هل أنت لا تزال على اتصال وثيق مع المسئولين المصريين؟، قال بن أليعازر "فى الماضى كنت على اتصال مع المشير محمد حسين طنطاوى، عندما كان يشغل منصب القائد العام للقوات المسلحة المصرية، ووزير الدفاع فقط، ولكن بعد أن أصبح رئيس المجلس الأعلى للقوات المسلحة كل ذلك قد تلاشى، فقد أصبحت صورة إسرائيل سيئة وكريهة بالنسبة له، بل وأصبح حساس جدا، ويترجم هذا فى كل كلمة تظهر فى صحافتنا عن القاهرة.

US claims father illegally moved kids to Gaza

(AP) — Authorities in the U.S. have filed criminal charges against a divorced Palestinian father who took his three children from Kansas to live in his native Gaza in an alleged violation of his custody decree.

Bethany Gonzales wants her children back in America. The divorced Muslim parents lived in suburban Kansas City until their father, Ahmed Abuhamda, took the children in February to Gaza.

He was charged last week in a federal criminal complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Kansas with intent to avoid prosecution on three state felony counts charging him with aggravated interference with parental custody.

The mother says she signed off on passports so the children could attend a wedding. The father claims she knew he was moving them to Gaza.

أمريكية تدعي أن طليقها الفلسطيني انتقل بأطفالهم الثلاثة للعيش في غزة بشكل غير قانوني

المحرر العربي - السلطات الأمريكية تتهم فلسطيني بتهم جنائية بسبب أخذه لأطفاله الثلاثة من ولاية كنساس للعيش في مسقط رأسه في غزة في انتهاك مزعوم لشروط حضانة الأطفال.

تناقلت الصحف الغربية في الولايات المتحدة خبرا مفاده أن فلسطينيا يُدعى أحمد ابو حمدة قد أخذ أطفاله الثلاثة واتجه بهم في فبراير 2012  إلى غزة قادما من ولاية كنساس الأمريكية حيث رفعت الأم المطلقة, وتدعى بيتانيا جونزاليس, قضية جنائية أمام المحاكم الأمريكية وتطالب بعودتهم إلى أمريكا.

و قد تم رفع شكوى جنائية في المحكمة الجزئية الامريكية في ولاية كنساس الأسبوع الماضي ضد الوالد المذكور بتهمة التهرب من الملاحقة القضائية من ثلاث تهم جنائية وهي عرقلة سير العدالة في قضية حضانة الأطفال.

تقول الأم انها قامت بالتوقيع بالموافقة على جوازات سفر الأطفال حتى يتمكنوا من حضور حفل زفاف أحد الأقارب في غزة. بينما يقول والد الأطفال أنه غادر الولايات المتحدة بناء على موافقتها وأنها تعلم انه سينتقل إلى غزة.

UN rights expert raises alarm over Palestinian prisoners on hunger strike in Israeli Prisons

 UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, Richard Falk on Monday said he was appalled by the “continuing human rights violations in Israeli prisons,” amid a massive wave of hunger strikes by Palestinian prisoners.

In extraordinary acts of collective nonviolent resistance to abusive conditions connected to Israel’s prolonged occupation of Palestinian territory, more than 1,000 Palestinian prisoners began an open-ended hunger strike on 17 April 2012, Palestinian Prisoners Day. This hunger strike is a protest against unjust arrest procedures, arbitrary detention and bad prison conditions. Prison authorities have reportedly taken punitive measures against those on hunger strike, including by denying them family and lawyer visits, confiscating their personal belongings and placing them in solitary confinement.

“I am appalled by the continuing human rights violations in Israeli prisons and I urge the Government of Israel to respect its international human rights obligations towards all Palestinian prisoners,” Falk said. “Israel must treat those prisoners on hunger strike in accordance with international standards, including by allowing the detainees visits from their family members.”

Falk noted that since the 1967 war, estimated 750,000 Palestinians including 23,000 women and 25,000 children have gone through detention in Israeli jails. This constitutes approximately 20 percent of the total Palestinian population in the occupied Palestinian territory or 40 percent of the total male Palestinian population in the occupied Palestinian territory.

“Israel’s wide use of administrative detention flies in the face of international fair trial standards,” Falk said. “Detainees must be able to effectively challenge administrative detention orders, including by ensuring that lawyers have full access to the evidence on which the order was issued.” The Special Rapporteur noted that Israel currently holds around 300 Palestinians in administrative detention.

Falk called on the international community to ensure that Israel complies with international human rights laws and norms in its treatment of Palestinian prisoners.

فولك يعبر عن ذهوله من استمرار إسرائيل في انتهاك حقوق الإنسان

المحرر العربي - المقرر الخاص للأمم المتحدة عن حالة حقوق الإنسان في الأراضي الفلسطينية المحتلة منذ عام 1967 ريتشارد فولك يعبر عن صدمته بالذهول نتيجة "استمرار انتهاك حقوق الانسان في السجون الإسرائيلية" وذلك وسط موجة الاضراب عن الطعام في أوساط السجناء الفلسطينيين.

في نوع غير اعتيادي من أنواع المقاومة الجماعية السلمية في مواجهة الشروط العقابية المرتبطة بالاحتلال الاسرائيلي للأراضي الفلسطينية, بدأ ما يزيد عن ألف سجين فلسطيني إضرابا مفتوحا عن الطعام في 17 أبريل الموافق ليوم الأسير الفلسطيني.

ويأتي الإضراب عن الطعام ضد إجراءات الاعتقال الجائرة والاعتقال العشوائي وظروف الاعتقال المزرية. ولقد قامت إدارة السجون بإجراء خطوات عقابية ضد المضربين بما في ذلك منع زيارة المحامين والأقارب ومصادرة أغراضهم الخاصة ونقلهم للحبس الانفرادي.

وفي هذا الصدد, عبر فولك عن صدمته بقوله:" لقد ذهلت من استمرار انتهاك حقوق الإنسان في السجون الإسرائيلية وأناشد حكومة إسرائيل باحترام التزاماتها الدولية حيال حقوق الإنسان لكافة السجناء الفلسطينيين." وأضاف :" يجب على إسرائيل أن تعامل المضربين عن الطعام حسب المعايير الدولية بما فيها السماح لزيارات الأقارب."

ويشير فولك انه تم اعتقال 750 الف فلسطيني من بينهم 23 الف إمرأة و 25 ألف طفل منذ حرب عام 1967 في السجون الإسرائيلية. وهذا الرقم يعادل حوالي 20 بالمائة من سكان الأراضي الفلسطينية المحتلة أو 40 بالمائة من عدد الذكور.

ويضيف المقرر الخاص أن إسترسال إسرائيل في استخدامها للاعتقال الإداري يشكل صفعة في وجه المعايير الدولية لتحقيق العدالة ويقول أن للمعتقلين الحق في الاعتراض على أوامر الاعتقال وضمان حصول المحامين على الأدلة التي صدرت بموجبها أوامر الاعتقال.

كما دعى المقرر الخاص للأمم المتحدة عن حالة حقوق الإنسان, ريتشارد فولك, المجتمع الدولي إلى ضمان امتثال إسرائيل لمعايير وقوانين حقوق الإنسان في تعاملها مع السجناء الفلسطينيين.
