Send us Fan MailThis is Understanding Israel Palestine. I'm Margot Patterson, the producer of this week's episode. 'll be talking to Robert Malley again, Mideast peace negotiator and author of the recent book Tomorrow is Yesterday: Life, Death and the Pursuit of Peace in Israel/Palestine after news briefs.A yearlong Al Jazeera investigation found that as many as 51 countries armed Israel during its war on Gaza — including many that publicly condemned Israel, announced embargoes on weapons sales to the country, and demanded a ceasefire.These weapon transfers took place after the International Court of Justice warned on Jan. 26, 2024 that there was a plausible risk of genocide in Gaza and reminded states of of their obligations to act to prevent genocide under the Geneva Convention. All of the 51 states arming Israel were signatory to the convention, yet arms shipments to Israel actually increased after the warning. The Al Jazeera report was based primarily on an analysis of Israeli Tax Authority import data between 2022 and 2025. The 5 largest suppliers of military goods to Israel were the United States, India, Romania, Taiwan and the Czech Republic.A French activist shared on  live TV  what she experienced in Israeli detention after Israeli forces abducted members of the Global Summed Flottilla seeking to bring humanitarian aid to Gaza. The 428 activists on 54 boats were intercepted May 19th in international waters  and taken  to Israel where their mistreatment in Israeli custody stirred international outcry after National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir posted a video showing him taunting blindfolded, bound activists. On French TVMay 23, Merriam Hadjal said she was slapped, beaten, kneed in the ribs and repeatedly groped and sexually assaulted by multiple Israeli soldiers. Hadjal is one of numerous flotilla activists who have  come forward alleging sexual violence in Israeli custody, including claims of sexual assault and rape by Israeli soldiers. Flotilla organizers say at least 15 of the detained activists reported sexual assault.Israel conducted more than 120 air strikes on southern and eastern Lebanon on May 26, after IPrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel will escalete  its  war on the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah.The  entire city of Tyre, and at least 10  southern villages in Lebanon have been ordered to evacuate. The expanding war violates  a nominal April 16 ceasefire between Lebanon and Israel and threatens to complicate negotiations between Iran and the U.S. IIran has said any agreement to end the war should end hostilities on all fronts, including Lebanon. Since March 2,  at least 32oo  have been killed in Lebanon and 9700 wounded. More than 1 million people in Lebanonhave been displaced.My guest today is Robert Malley,  a Middle East expert and specialist in conflict negotiation.. He served as Special Assistant to President Clinton for Arab-Israeli affairs from 1998-2001 and was among the peace negotiators at the Camp David Summit of 2000. He was a member of the National Security Council during the the Obama administration and  was lead negotiator of the Iran nuclear deal. He was President Biden's envoy to Iran and is now at Yale University's Jackson School of Global Affairs. His book,  Tomorrow is Yesterday: Life, Death and the Pursuit of Peace in Israel/Palestine, was co-authored with Hussein Agha and looks at how the Oslo Accords deteriorated into an endless peace process that became a joke and then a fraud. This is the second of a two-part conversation. The first part aired May 15. You can find it on our program page on the KKFI website at www. kkfi.org or listen to it on our podcast available on most streaming platforms. Robert Malley, thanks for coming on the program again. When we spoke earlier, you talked about how the two-state solution has always been more popular with the international community than with either Israelis or Palestinians. That made it a heavy lift from the get-go. Not impossible, but difficult.In your book, you paint a very honest, nuanced picture of Yasser Arafat, who succeeded in convincing Palestinians that a Palestinian state on 22% of historic Palestine was not a betrayal of their rights and aspirations but a worthy goal. Could you talk more about Arafat and how the very traits that enabled him to unify and lead the Palestinian people made him suspect in Israeli and American eyes? Malley: It's a great question because he is the target of such contradictory perceptions and images in the West. The fact that he never left his military garb, that he, sometimes insisted on carrying a gun, spoke in very militant terms, particularly when he spoke to his own audience, particularly when he spoke in Arabic. All of that convinced many Americans, and certainly a majority of Israelis, that he was somebody with whom ultimately a peace couldn't be made because he could never give up on the aspirations of being a fighter, a militant in their eyes, often a terrorist. Now, Palestinian eyes, those are the traits that made it possible for him to sell some compromises which otherwise would have been even more difficult to swallow. You just mentioned the principal one, which is that even though the fight that the Palestinians have waged from, 1948 onwards was not a fight for a state on 22% of historic Palestine, it was a fight for liberation of all the land. It was a fight for the return of the refugees. And so his efforts, which were to make the Palestinians view that compromise not as a defeat but as a triumph, not as surrender but as conquest, was in part due to the fact that he retained, in their eyes, precisely the image that the West and Israel found repugnant, which is the image of somebody who would not drop his gun, who would not trade in his military garb for a diplomatic outfit, who would not only speak in the diplomatic language, but in the language of a rebel, of a militant, of a revolutionary. In some ways, what made it possible for him to sell the compromise to his own people made it very difficult and sometimes impossible for other audiences, Israeli or Western, to believe a word he said. Q.: You note that Americans were very deferential to the political constraints facing different Israeli leaders, but ignored those affecting Palestinian leaders. That was true for Arafat, but also for Mahmoud Abbas, Arafat's successor and the man who has led the Palestinian Authority for umpteen years now. Abbas believed that nonviolence was the only way forward for the Palestinian cause and has lived that credo, but his efforts to advance statehood have gone nowhere. How did the United States unwittingly sabotage him? How do you think they failed him, and why haven't his efforts been able to go anyplace?Malley:  A word on your first point. The U.S. identifies much more closely with Israel; they are more familiar with its political system. We could debate how much a democracy it is, since today the majority of the people living under Israeli governance, half of the people, don't have the same rights as others and a large percentage, the Palestinians living in the West Bank and Gaza, have no political rights at all when it comes to Israel's political system. So you could debate how democratic Israel, is, but certainly from an American perspective, it's a system that runs through parliamentary elections an election system that we can understand with regular polling and regular elections. The Palestinian system is a very different one, and I think in the eyes of many Americans, and this doesn't just apply to the Palestinians, it applies to many other countries, and particularly many Arab countries, they view it as more of a one-man show, in the past, the one-man show of Arafat, then the one-man show of Abbas, in which they believe that even though sometimes there are the accoutrements of democracy, the elections don't mean all that much. The system can be run in a more autocratic way by the supreme leader, in this case the head of the PLO, Palestine Liberation Organization, head of Fatah, the main party, the head of the Palestinian Authority. They believe that Palestinian politics don't matter, that ultimately because they project this image of a system that is run by a single person or by a small group of people, that they can impose whatever they want on their own population. Public opinion doesn't really matter. You hear that when people speak about Saudi Arabia, when they speak about Egypt, when they speak about many of these countries that either are not democratic or don't have a form of democracy that the U.S .is accustomed to. Whereas in fact, it doesn't work that way at all. Precisely because the Palestinian leadership doesn't have, and Arafat didn't have, those regular mechanisms in which his authority could be validated at the polls, in which you had democratic institutions that would legitimize his rule, he was very dependent on a popular form of consensus for his decision-making, and he couldn't afford to stray too far away from that core center of gravity, that consensus, because then he would have no legitimacy at all. And that's been true of one Palestinian leader after another. I think there is this misperception that because Israel is more, quote-unquote, "democratic," we need to pay attention and sometimes excessive attention. I can't tell you how many times I heard American officials for whom I was working saying, "We can't do X or Y or Z because it will imperil the coalition in power because of the democratic institutions and processes that Israel has to go through." I never heard that when it came to the Palestinians. It was, if Arafat wants it, Arafat could get it. If the next leadership would want it, it could get it. If the next leadership would

En dépit de températures caniculaires et d'une situation géopolitique explosive dans la région,1,7 million de fidèles étaient attendus à partir du 25 mai en Arabie saoudite pour le pèlerinage à la Mecque. Des musulmans venus de la planète entière, dans une démarche de piété et de fraternité. Toutefois sur les réseaux sociaux, le hadj a été cette année synonyme de surenchère avec une avalanche de vidéos spectaculaires générées par intelligence artificielle (IA), déformant la réalité. La vidéo a fait le tour des réseaux sociaux. Une marée humaine entoure le mont Arafat à une vingtaine de kilomètres de la Mecque. La séquence de 24 secondes est censée montrer l'un des rituels les plus importants du pèlerinage : une journée consacrée à la prière et à la méditation sur le site où le prophète Mahomet aurait prononcé son dernier sermon. Sur la vidéo trompeuse, on peut voir des pèlerins à perte de vue. Des images accompagnées d'un chant religieux, ce qui rend cette scène encore plus captivante. Commentaires : « Une seule personne peut rassembler cette foule, et c'est le prophète Mahomet ». Une analyse attentive de la vidéo laisse apparaître des incohérences visuelles. Par exemple la foule est trop compacte et surtout, totalement uniforme. En comparant avec d'autres images comme celles issues des webcams officielles, on distingue des parasols de couleurs, des installations pour guider les pèlerins, mais aussi des rochers à flanc de colline sur lesquels aucun visiteur ne s'est risqué. L'utilisation d'un outil de détection d'images artificielles (Hive moderation) confirme que cette vidéo a été conçue par une IA générative. Avalanche de fake sur TikTok Certains contributeurs se sont spécialisés dans la création d'images synthétiques autour de la thématique du pèlerinage. On y voit par exemple des hélicoptères parachutant des bouteilles d'eau sur les fidèles, ou des camions équipés de brumisateurs géants fendant la foule, pour rafraîchir les croyants. Certaines vidéos font mention de l'utilisation d'une IA, d'autres non… Pourquoi une telle production ?  Pour plusieurs raisons. D'abord le pèlerinage concerne les musulmans du monde entier, soit plus de deux milliards de fidèles dans le monde. Donc les auteurs savent que ces images créées de toutes pièces trouveront leur public, et permettent de monétiser leur audience.  Le hadj est un motif de fierté. Reste que si les croyants qui se rendent en Arabie saoudite peuvent emporter leur téléphone portable, il est fortement déconseillé de filmer les rites, et s'afficher sur les réseaux est considéré comme une attitude « ostentatoire », qui nuit à la sincérité de la démarche religieuse. On pourrait penser aussi que ces images artificielles viennent peut-être « combler un vide » auprès du public, mais sur X de nombreux contributeurs musulmans ont immédiatement condamné l'utilisation de vidéos générées par IA. On pouvait ainsi lire : « Malheureusement, des vidéos générées par intelligence artificielle et diffusées par de faux comptes anonymes prétendent provenir du Hadj 2026. Il s'agit d'un mensonge, d'une fabrication et d'une tromperie à l'égard du public, ainsi que d'un mépris pour les musulmans du monde entier. Nous exhortons chacun à ne pas partager ces vidéos et à vérifier l'authenticité des publications. Le royaume d'Arabie saoudite organise le Hajj de manière professionnelle afin d'assurer la sécurité et le confort des pèlerins et de leur fournir toutes les commodités nécessaires ». À lire aussiHadj 2026: «malgré les tensions régionales et les crises», la ferveur reste intacte, selon le chercheur Hasni Abidi

Jour d'Arafat : l'instant le plus sacré du Hajj, profondément lié au dernier sermon du prophète Muhammad sur le mont Arafat by TOPFM MAURITIUS

Arefe Gecesi Kurbân Bayrâmı'nın birinci günü ile Arefe Günü arasındaki gecedir. Zilhicce Ayı'nın dokuzuncu gününü onuncu gününe bağlayan gecedir. Hz. İbrâhîm (a.s.) bir gece rüyâ gördü. Bu rüyânın evhâm mı yoksa ilhâm mı olduğunda şübhede kaldı. Zihni hep bu rüyânın tesirinde olarak gününü geçirdi. Nihâyet ikinci gece de tekrâr aynı rüyâyı görünce bunun Rahmânî bir rüyâ olduğu, Allâh (c.c.)'den gösterildiğini anladı. İşte bu anlama işini, tanıma yani bilme manâsında Kurbân Bayrâmı'nın evvelîne “Arefe” diyoruz ki Hz. İbrâhîm (a.s.)'ın rüyâdaki emri anlaması demektir. Bugünün en büyük özelliği Arafat'ta hacıların vakfe yaptıkları gün oluşudur. Bugün yapılan duâların makbûl olduğu hakkında Hadîs-i Şerîfler vardır. Hacca gitmeyenlerin bugünü oruçlu geçirmeleri müstehâbtır. Hacılara, zayıf düşüp asıl görevlerini aksatmalarına sebeb olacağından, oruç tutmaları mekrûh kabûl edilmiştir. TEŞRÎK TEKBÎRLERİ Arefe Günü, Sabah Namâzı'nın farzından sonra başlayıp Kurbân Bayrâmı'nın dördüncü günü İkindi Namâzı'na kadar, bu İkindi Namâzı'da dahil 23 vakit farzların peşinden teşrik tekbîrlerini almak bütün Müslümânlara vâcibtir. Kılınan her farz namâzın peşinde, konuşmadan: “Allâhü ekber Allâhü ekber lâ ilâhe illa'llâhü va'llâhü ekber, Allâhü ekber ve li'llâhi'l-hâmd” demek yeterlidir. Arefe gecesi yapılacak en güzel ibâdet zikirdir. Yüz kere İhlâs-ı Şerîf okunur. Yüz kere de: “Lâ ilâhe illa'llâhü vahdehü lâ şerîke leh. Le-hü'l mülkü ve le-hü'l hamdü ve hüve ‘alâ külli şey'in kadîr” denir. Yüz kere de: “Allâhümme salli alâ Muhammedin ve enzil-hü'l mak'ade'l mukarrebe ‘ındeke yevme'l kıyâmeh” denir. Ebû Katâde (r.a.) der ki: Resûlullâh (s.a.v.) Efendimiz'den Arefe gününde tutulan orucun fazîletinden soruldu. Buyurdular ki: “Geçmiş bir senenin ve gelecek senenin günâhlarına keffaret olur.” (Râgıb Güzel, Üç Aylar, s.110-113)

On October 7, 2023, Hamas fighters killed more than 1,100 Israelis and took more than 200 hostages, prompting an Israeli response that has in turn taken tens of thousands of lives and devastated the Gaza Strip. Why did this happen, and can anything be done to grant peace and justice to Israelis and Palestinians alike?In their new book Tomorrow Is Yesterday, veteran negotiators Robert Malley and Hussein Agha offer a personal and bracing perspective on how the hopes of the Oslo Peace Process became the horrors of the present. Drawing on their experience advising U.S. presidents (Clinton, Obama, and Biden) and the Palestinian leadership (Arafat and Abbas),  and their participation in secret talks over decades, Malley and Agha offer candid portraits of leading figures and an interpretation of the conflict that exposes the delusions of all sides. They stress that the two-state solution became a global goal only when it was no longer viable; that U.S. officials preferred technical schemes to a frank reckoning with the past; that Hamas's onslaught and Israel's war of destruction were not historical exceptions but historical reenactments; and that the gaps separating Israelis and Palestinians have less to do with territorial allocation than with history and emotions.Join Robert Malley to hear about the issues raised in the book and the latest political developments in the region. *NOTE: This podcast contains explicit language.

L'antisemitismo in Occidente ha abbandonato i temi classici del passato (popolo deicida, usura, sacrifici umani) per diventare sempre più legato al dominio sulla finanza con la quale si controlla il mondo. In Russia invece i temi siano ancora quelli dei Protocolli. Anche in questo la Russia è quello che lo stesso Marx rimarcava negativamente: un paese economicamente e culturalmente arretrato. Perché allora il fascino che pervade dalle pagine di Dugin e di tutta la cultura rossobruna?I Protocolli e le attività del Cremlino per propagarli in occidente sono parte integrata nell'attività di disinformazia e delle misure attive generate per condizionare l'Occidente? o sono un filone specifico che dobbiamo distinguere dal resto? Le misure attive sono solo antioccidentali? Arafat fu creato per influenzare l'occidente o anche il Medio oriente? come si è mosso il Cremlino nei confronti del mondo arabo? E' giusto dire che la Russia è ossessionata dall'idea dei nemici esterni che agiscono con i soldi dell'occidente? Esiste una riflessione in Russia su questo?

Aalo Atomics is a three year old company that is focused on designing, manufacturing and deploying nuclear reactors. Their stated goal is to achieve an electricity production cost of less than $0.03 (3 cents) per kilowatt hour. It’s moving fast. It built a 40,000 ft² pilot scale manufacturing plant in Austin, TX in just one year. It plans to achieve initial criticality for Aalo-X, its first commercial scale reactor, in July 2026. That’s less than four months from now. The facility at the Idaho National Laboratory is completed, the reactor and primary systems have been installed. The reactor fuel is being manufactured by Global Nuclear Fuels in Wilmington, NC. The few remaining steps include the Department of Energy’s issuance of the final Documented Safety Analysis, fuel receipt and fuel loading. For many inside and outside the nuclear industry, Aalo’s pace seems to be almost impossible. Even for those who believe it is possible for nuclear systems to be designed, reviewed, licensed and constructed far faster than ever before, the accomplishments approach the incredible stage. For Atomic Show #343, Yasir Arafat, Aalo’s co-founder and Chief Technical Officer enthusiastically shares his company’s story. He tells us how the company and its products were designed and manufactured with efficiency, ease and availability at the center of decision making. The company also decided at a very early stage that it would do everything in its power to manufacture and assemble its machines, taking control of its own destiny wherever possible. He bragged – rightfully so – about the company’s ability to attract exceptional employees, stating their belief that a superstar can be as much as 10 times more productive than an average employee. He described how the company has avoided adding management layers, saying that the team they have assembled does not need anyone to manage their performance. He emphasized that Aalo had assembled a strong network of suppliers with shared motives that help to make the vision achievable. Raw materials, sensors, wiring harnesses and many other parts that aren’t at the top of mind are best purchased rather than built in house. During the discussion, Yasir told stories from his 15-year career as a reactor design engineer at Westinghouse and Idaho National Laboratory that helped to shape his technical and managerial decision making. It’s evident that he has done a lot of personal “lesson learning” and is now applying those learnings with a high performing team. Aalo’s inspiring vision and milestone execution track record have attracted a strong and growing number of risk-accepting investors. Nucleation Capital, the parent company of Atomic Insights and the Atomic Show podcast, has been one of those investors from a very early stage in the company.

Birleşmiş Milletler 10 Aralık 1948 tarihinde İnsan Hakları Beyannamesi adı altında bir kararname çıkardı. Yani, medeni dünya (!) bu kadar yıldan sonra insanların eşit olduklarını, hayati ve medeni haklarda aynı düzeyde olduklarını hissetti ve böyle bir belgenin neşrine gerek görmüş oldu. Sözde bu belgenin gayesi, bütün insanların tam bir eşitlik, özgürlük ve güven içerisinde yaşamalarını temin etmek, her ferdin insanlık ailesinde şerefli yerini alabilmesi ve korkusuz yaşamasını garanti altına almaktı. Acaba bu belgede söz konusu hususlar, az da olsa gayesine erişmiş midir? Buna imza koyan milletler dahi bunu uyguladılar mı? Dünyada cereyan eden olaylara baktığımız zaman, bu sorunun cevabı tabii ki “hayır”dır. Çünkü başta beyannameyi imza edenler dâhil, cemiyetlerin hiçbiri çıkarına ve politikasına uymadığı konuları asla uygulamamışlardır. Bu hallerde insanlık da unutulmuş ve insan hakları da. Gerçekten insan haklarını insanlara bahşeden ve uygulayan tek ve yegâne müessese yüce İslam'dır. Peygamber (s.a.v.) Efendimiz'in risaletiyle bunun öncülüğünü yapmış, İslam devletinin bütün hâkimiyeti devirlerinde fiilen uygulanmıştır. Bunun öncülüğü ve şerefi, ondört asırdan beri İslam idare anlayışının ve onun şerefli devlet adamlarının hakkıdır. Ayrıca İslam'da bu hakları insanlara veren yüce Allah (c.c.)'dur, insanoğlu değildir. Kaynağı semavi ve mukaddestir. Bu hak, bir tecrübe ve tekâmülün eseri değil, ezeli bir ilmin ve mutlak bir iradenin Peygamber (s.a.v.) Efendimiz'in şahsında tecellisidir. İnsan hakları, İslam dininin Hazreti Peygamber (s.a.v.) Efendimiz'e vahiy edildiği tarihten itibaren insanlara verilmiş ilahi bir haktır. Efendimiz (s.a.v) Arafat'ta ve Mina'da buyurduğu Veda Hutbesi'nde insan haklarını en mükemmel şekilde belirlemiştir. Müslümanlara düşen bunları tetkik ve tatbik etmektir. (Mehmet Çağlayan, İslam Hukuk Doktrini, s.198)

Suicide remains an under-prioritised public health issue in Bangladesh, shaped by stigma, criminalisation, and gaps in mental health care. While recent laws and policies signal progress, the absence of a national suicide prevention programme and a reliable suicide database continues to hinder effective action. In this episode, we explore the current state of suicide prevention in Bangladesh, examine policy initiatives and challenges, and discuss why a coordinated, public health–focused approach is urgently needed to save lives.

Former Congressman Peter King joins the program on this St. Patrick's Day to describe his role during the Clinton era in advancing peace in Northern Ireland, outlining historical discrimination against Catholics and the violence from 1969 onward. He says President Bill Clinton, along with Tony Blair and Irish Prime Minister Bertie Ahern, helped drive negotiations that led to the 1998 Good Friday Agreement, with King sometimes acting as an unofficial emissary after setbacks, and he notes New York's St. Patrick's Day events and Cardinal O'Connor's public gestures aided awareness. King contrasts Northern Ireland's compromise and leaders willing to accept partial gains with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, criticizing Arafat's failure to deliver. He condemns the Irish government's pro-Palestinian stance, calling it a European elite trend, and argues U.S. interests align with supporting Israel. Learn more about your ad choices.

Anna-Maria und Anis sprechen über ihren anstehenden Trip nach Deutschland: Während sich alle schon auf Weihnachten mit Anna-Marias Familie freuen und die Drillinge gespannt auf ihre ersten Schneeflocken sind, stehen dort einige To-Dos auf dem Plan – von Winterklamotten bis Mietwagen für die komplette Entourage. Anis steht zwischen seiner Vorfreude auf die spektakuläre Abschiedstour und der Erleichterung, dass er ein großes Kapitel bald endgültig schließen wird. +++Alle Rabattcodes und Infos zu unseren Werbepartnern findet ihr hier: https://linktr.ee/bushido_podcast+++Unsere allgemeinen Datenschutzrichtlinien finden Sie unter https://datenschutz.ad-alliance.de/podcast.html+++Wir verarbeiten im Zusammenhang mit dem Angebot unserer Podcasts Daten.

Hace 25 años, el 13 de septiembre de 1993, se oficializó la Declaración de Principios sobre las Disposiciones relacionadas con un Gobierno Autónomo Provisional. Más conocidos como los “Acuerdos de Oslo”, porque las negociaciones se llevaron adelante en la capital noruega, contaron con la rúbrica de Mahmoud Abbas por la Organización para la Liberación de Palestina (OLP), el ministro de Relaciones Exteriores Shimon Peres por Israel, el secretario de Estado norteamericano Warren Christopher y el canciller ruso Andréi Kozyrev. Fue en Washington, ante las presencias del líder de la OLP Yasser Arafat, el primer ministro israelí Yitzhak Rabin y el presidente estadounidense Bill Clinton. Al año siguiente Arafat, Peres y Rabin recibieron el premio Nobel de la Paz. Pero los Acuerdos de Oslo implicaban un camino a la paz entre Israel y Palestina que no fue, según lamentan los protagonistas.

Hace 25 años, el 13 de septiembre de 1993, se oficializó la Declaración de Principios sobre las Disposiciones relacionadas con un Gobierno Autónomo Provisional. Más conocidos como los “Acuerdos de Oslo”, porque las negociaciones se llevaron adelante en la capital noruega, contaron con la rúbrica de Mahmoud Abbas por la Organización para la Liberación de Palestina (OLP), el ministro de Relaciones Exteriores Shimon Peres por Israel, el secretario de Estado norteamericano Warren Christopher y el canciller ruso Andréi Kozyrev.

Al año siguiente, Arafat, Peres y Rabin recibieron el premio Nobel de la Paz. Pero los Acuerdos de Oslo implicaban un camino a la paz entre Israel y Palestina que no fue, según lamentan los protagonistas.

Especial presentado por Roberto García, en el que la BBC cuenta en forma pormenorizada la vida de Yasser Arafat, fundador y presidente de la OLP (Organización para la Liberación Palestina) y del partido Fatah. El documental narra su trayectoria de lucha por la autodeterminación palestina, su apelación a la violencia y al terrorismo contra Israel y sus aliados en Medio Oriente. La falta de resultados y las recurrentes masacres sobre su pueblo lo llevan en 1988 a la renuncia explícita de la violencia y al reconocimiento del Estado de Israel. Es en ese momento que Arafat proclama la solución de los dos Estados en el marco de los Acuerdos de Oslo de 1994, propiciados por la administración Clinton. Sin embargo, el pacto no conformaría a los palestinos e israelíes más extremos, y su consecuencia será, por un lado, el asesinato del Primer Ministro israelí Yitzhak Rabin, en manos de un extremista judío; y por el otro, el ascenso de HAMAS en la Franja de Gaza, organización que comienza a licuar la influencia de la OLP, y cuyos ataques redundarían en la llegada de la derecha al gobierno israelí, de la mano de Benjamín Netanyahu. Esta circunstancia, contemporánea a la muerte de Yasser Arafat, anula el modesto progreso que la paz había logrado en Oslo.

Dive into the third episode of AJC's latest limited podcast series, Architects of Peace. Go behind the scenes of the decades-long diplomacy and quiet negotiations that made the Abraham Accords possible, bringing Israel, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and later Morocco, together in historic peace agreements.  On September 15, 2020, the Abraham Accords were signed at the White House by President Trump, Prime Minister Netanyahu, and the foreign ministers of the UAE and Bahrain. In this third installment of AJC's limited series, AJC CEO Ted Deutch and Chief Policy and Political Affairs Officer Jason Isaacson—who stood on the South Lawn that day—share their memories and insights five years later. Together, they reflect on how the Accords proved that peace is achievable when nations share strategic interests, build genuine relationships, and pursue the greater good. *The views and opinions expressed by guests do not necessarily reflect the views or position of AJC.  Read the transcript: https://www.ajc.org/news/podcast/from-the-white-house-lawn-architects-of-peace-episode-3 Resources: AJC.org/ArchitectsofPeace - Tune in weekly for new episodes.

Transcript: Ted Deutch: It was a beautiful day and there was this coming together, this recognition that this was such an historic moment. It's the kind of thing, frankly, that I remember having watched previously, when there were peace agreements signed and thinking that's something that I want to be a part of. And there I was looking around right in the middle of all of this, and so excited about where this could lead. Manya Brachear Pashman: In September 2020, the world saw what had been years, decades in the making, landmark peace agreements dubbed the Abraham Accords, normalizing relations between Israel and two Arabian Gulf States, the United Arab Emirates and the Kingdom of Bahrain. Later, in December, they were joined by the Kingdom of Morocco. Five years later, AJC is pulling back the curtain to meet key individuals who built the trust that led to these breakthroughs. Introducing: the Architects of Peace. Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States. Accompanied by the Prime Minister of the State of Israel; His Highness the Minister of Foreign Affairs and International cooperation of the United Arab Emirates, and the Minister of the Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Bahrain.  Manya Brachear Pashman: The guests of honor framed by the South Portico of the White House were an unlikely threesome. Two Arab foreign ministers and the Prime Minister of Israel, there to sign a pair of peace agreements that would transform the Middle East.  Donald Trump: Thanks to the great courage of the leaders of these three countries, we take a major stride toward a future in which people of all faiths and backgrounds live together in peace and prosperity. There will be other countries very, very soon that will follow these great leaders. Manya Brachear Pashman: President Trump's team had achieved what was long thought impossible. After decades of pretending Israel did not exist until it solved its conflict with the Palestinians, Trump's team discovered that attitudes across the Arab region had shifted and after months of tense negotiations, an agreement had been brokered by a small circle of Washington insiders. On August 13, 2020, the United Arab Emirates agreed to become the first Arab state in a quarter century to normalize relations with Israel. Not since 1994 had Israel established diplomatic relations with an Arab country, when King Hussein of Jordan and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin signed a treaty, ending the state of war that had existed between them since Israel's rebirth. A ceremony to celebrate and sign the historic deal was planned for the South Lawn of the White House on September 15, 2020. Before the signing ceremony took place, another nation agreed to sign as well: not too surprisingly the Kingdom of Bahrain.  After all, in June 2019, Bahrain had hosted the Peace to Prosperity summit, a two-day workshop where the Trump administration unveiled the economic portion of its peace plan – a 38-page prospectus that proposed ways for Palestinians and Arab countries to expand economic opportunities in cooperation with Israel.  In addition to Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE all participated in the summit. The Palestinians boycotted it, even as Trump's senior advisor Jared Kushner presented plans to help them. Jared Kushner: A lot of these investments people are unwilling to make because people don't want to put good money after bad money. They've seen in the past they've made these investments, they've tried to help out the Palestinian people, then all of a sudden there's some  conflict that breaks out and a lot of this infrastructure gets destroyed. So what we have here is very detailed plans and these are things we can phase in over time assuming there's a real ceasefire, a real peace and there's an opportunity for people to start making these investments. Manya Brachear Pashman: Now Israel, the UAE, and Bahrain would open embassies, exchange ambassadors, and cooperate on tourism, trade, health care, and regional security. The Accords not only permitted Israelis to enter the two Arab nations using their Israeli passports, it opened the door for Muslims to visit historic sites in Israel, pray at Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, the third holiest site in Islam, and finally satisfy their curiosity about the Jewish state. Before signing the accords, each leader delivered remarks. Here's Bahrain's Foreign Minister Abdullatif bin Rashid Al-Zayani. Abdullatif bin Rashid Al-Zayani: For too long, the Middle East has been set back by conflict and mistrust, causing untold destruction and thwarting the potential of generations of our best and brightest young people. Now, I'm convinced, we have the opportunity to change that. Manya Brachear Pashman: UAE's Minister of Foreign Affairs Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan echoed that sentiment and also addressed accusations by Palestinian leadership that the countries had abandoned them. He made it clear that the accords bolstered the Emirates' support for the Palestinian people and their pursuit of an independent state. Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan:  [speaking in Arabic] Manya Brachear Pashman: [translating Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan] This new vision, he said, which is beginning to take shape as we meet today for the future of the region, full of youthful energy, is not a slogan that we raise for political gain as everyone looks forward to creating a more stable, prosperous, and secure future. This accord will enable us to continue to stand by the Palestinian people and realize their hopes for an independent state within a stable and prosperous region. Manya Brachear Pashman: The Truman Balcony, named for the first American president to recognize Israel's independence, served as the backdrop for a few iconic photographs. The officials then made their way down the stairs and took their seats at the table where they each signed three copies of the Abraham Accords in English, Hebrew, and Arabic. The brief ceremony combined formality and levity as the leaders helped translate for each other so someone didn't sign on the wrong dotted line. After that was settled, they turned the signed documents around to show the audience. When they all rose from their seats, Prime Minister Netanyahu paused. After the others put their portfolios down, he stood displaying his for a little while longer, taking a few more seconds to hold on to the magnitude of the moment. Benjamin Netanyahu: To all of Israel's friends in the Middle East, those who are with us today and those who will join us tomorrow, I say, ‘As-salamu alaykum. Peace unto thee. Shalom.' And you have heard from the president that he is already lining up more and more countries. This is unimaginable a few years ago, but with resolve, determination, a fresh look at the way peace is done . . . The blessings of the peace we make today will be enormous, first, because this peace will eventually expand to include other Arab states, and ultimately, it can end the Arab Israeli conflict once and for all. [clapping] [Red alert sirens] Manya Brachear Pashman: But peace in Israel was and still is a distant reality as Palestinian leadership did not participate in the Accords, and, in fact, viewed it as a betrayal. As Netanyahu concluded his speech to the audience on the White House Lawn, thousands of miles away, Israel's Iron Dome missile defense system intercepted 15 rockets fired by terrorists in Gaza, at least one striking Israel's coastal city of Ashdod. Iran's regime condemned the agreement. But across most of the region and around the world, the revelation that decades of hostility could be set aside to try something new – a genuine pursuit of peace – inspired hope. Saudi journalists wrote op-eds in support of the UAE and Bahrain. Egypt and Oman praised the Abraham Accords for adding stability to the region. Germany, the United Kingdom, France, and Spain commended the monumental step. United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres welcomed the deal for paving the way toward a two-state solution. AJC's Chief Policy and Political Affairs Officer Jason Isaacson was one of more than 200 domestic and foreign officials on the White House Lawn that day taking it all in. The guest list included members of Congress, embassy staff, religious leaders, and people like himself who worked behind the scenes – a cross section of people who had been part of a long history of relationship building and peacemaking in the Middle East for many years. Jason Isaacson: To see what was happening then this meeting of neighbors who could be friends. To see the warmth evident on that stage at the South Lawn of the White House, and then the conversations that were taking place in this vast assembly on the South Lawn. Converging at that moment to mark the beginning of a development of a new Middle East. It was an exciting moment for me and for AJC and one that not only will I never forget but one that I am looking forward to reliving. Manya Brachear Pashman: Jason, of course, is talking about his confidence in the expansion of the Abraham Accords. Through his position at AJC he has attended several White House events marking milestones in the peace process. He had been seated on the South Lawn of the White House 27 years earlier to watch a similar scene unfold -- when Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and Palestinian Leader Yasser Arafat met to sign the Oslo Accords with President Bill Clinton. Yitzhak Rabin: What we are doing today is more than signing an agreement. It is a revolution. Yesterday, a dream. Today, a commitment. The Israeli and the Palestinian peoples who fought each other for almost a century have agreed to move decisively on the path of dialogue, understanding, and cooperation. Manya Brachear Pashman: Brokered secretly by Norway, the Oslo Accords established mutual recognition between Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization, which claimed to represent the Palestinian people. It also led to the creation of a Palestinian Authority for interim self-government and a phased Israeli withdrawal from parts of the West Bank and Gaza.  Jason Isaacson: I mean, 1993 was a tremendous breakthrough, and it was a breakthrough between the State of Israel and an organization that had been created to destroy Israel. And so it was a huge breakthrough to see the Israeli and Palestinian leaders agree to a process that would revolutionize that relationship, normalize that relationship, and set aside a very ugly history and chart a new path that was historic. Manya Brachear Pashman: While the Oslo Accords moved the Israelis and Palestinians toward a resolution, progress came to a halt two years later with the assassination of Prime Minister Rabin. In July 2000, President Clinton brought Arafat and then Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak to Camp David to continue discussions, but they could not agree.  In his autobiography, “My Life,” President Clinton wrote that Arafat walked away from a Palestinian state, a mistake that Clinton took personally. When Arafat called him a great man, Clinton responded “I am not a great man. I am a failure, and you made me one." Arafat's decision also would prove fatal for both Israelis and Palestinians. By September, the Second Intifada – five years of violence, terror attacks, and suicide bombings – derailed any efforts toward peace. Jason says the Abraham Accords have more staying power than the Oslo Accords. That's clear five years later, especially after the October 7 Hamas terror attacks sparked a prolonged war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza. Two years into the war, the Abraham Accords have held. But Jason recalls feeling optimistic, even as he sat there again on the South Lawn. Jason Isaacson: It's a different kind of historic moment, maybe a little less breathtaking in the idea of two fierce antagonists, sort of laying down their arms and shaking hands uneasily, but shaking hands. Uneasily, but shaking hands. All those years later, in 2020, you had a state of Israel that had no history of conflict with the UAE or Bahrain. Countries with, with real economies, with real investment potential, with wise and well-advised leaders who would be in a position to implement plans that were being put together in the summer and fall of 2020. The Oslo Accords, you know, didn't provide that kind of built in infrastructure to advance peace. Manya Brachear Pashman: Jason pointed out that the only source of conflict among the signatories on the Abraham Accords was actually a point of mutual agreement – a frustration and desire to resolve the conflict with the Palestinians. UAE and Bahrain were part of the League of Arab States that had sworn in 2002 not to advance relations with Israel in the absence of a two-state solution.  But 18 years later, that had gone nowhere and leaders recognized that perhaps it would be more beneficial to the Palestinian cause if they at least engaged with Israel. Jason Isaacson: I had no fear, sitting in a folding chair on the White House Lawn on September 15, that this was going to evaporate. This seemed to be a natural progression. The region is increasingly sophisticated and increasingly plugged into the world, and recognizing that they have a lot of catching up to do to advance the welfare of their people. And that that catching up is going to require integrating with a very advanced country in their region that they have shunned for too long. This is a recognition that I am hearing across the region, not always spoken in those words, but it's clear that it will be of benefit to the region, to have Israel as a partner, rather than an isolated island that somehow is not a part of that region. Donald Trump: I want to thank all of the members of Congress for being here … Manya Brachear Pashman: AJC CEO Ted Deutch also was at the White House that day, not as AJC CEO but as a Congressman who served on the House Committee on Foreign Affairs and chaired its Subcommittee on the Middle East, North Africa and Global Counterterrorism. Ted Deutch: It was a beautiful day and there was this coming together, this recognition that this was such an historic moment and it's exactly the kind of thing, frankly, that  I remember having watched previously, when there were peace agreements signed and thinking that's something that I want to be a part of. And there I was looking around right in the middle of all of this, and so excited about where this could lead. Manya Brachear Pashman: Despite his congressional role, Ted learned about the deal along with the rest of the world when it was initially announced a month before the ceremony, though he did get a tip that something was in the pipeline that would change the course of the committee's work. Ted Deutch: I found out when I got a phone call from the Trump administration, someone who was a senior official who told me that there is big news that's coming, that the Middle East is never going to look the same, and that he couldn't share any other information. And we, of course, went into wild speculation mode about what that could be. And the Abraham Accords was the announcement, and it was as dramatic as he suggested. Manya Brachear Pashman: It was a small glimmer of light during an otherwise dark time. Remember, this was the summer and early fall of 2020. The COVID pandemic, for the most part, had shut down the world. People were not attending meetings, conferences, or parties. Even members of Congress were avoiding Capitol Hill and casting their votes from home. Ted Deutch: It was hard to make great strides in anything in the diplomatic field, because there weren't the kind of personal interactions taking place on a regular basis. It didn't have the atmosphere that was conducive to meaningful, deep, ongoing conversations about the future of the world. And that's really what this was about, and that's what was missing. And so here was this huge news that for the rest of the world, felt like it was out of the blue, that set in motion a whole series of steps in Congress about the way that our committee, the way we approach the region. That we could finally start talking about regional cooperation in ways that we couldn't before. Manya Brachear Pashman: The timing was especially auspicious as it boosted interest in a particular piece of legislation that had been in the works for a decade: the bipartisan Nita M. Lowey Middle East Partnership for Peace Act. Approved by Congress in December 2020, around the same time Morocco joined the Abraham Accords, the law allocated up to $250 million over five years for programs advancing peaceful coexistence between Israelis and Palestinians and supporting a sustainable two-state solution. Passed as part of a larger appropriations bill, it was the largest investment of any single country in Israeli-Palestinian civil society initiatives. Ted Deutch: Here we were having this conversation about increasing trade and increasing tourism and the countries working more closely together and being able to freely fly back and forth on a regular basis – something that we've seen as the tourism numbers have taken off. The trade has taken off. So it really changed what we do. Manya Brachear Pashman: The other thing Ted recalls about that day on the White House lawn was the bipartisan spirit in the air. Although his own committee didn't tend to divide along party lines, Congress had become quite polarized and partisan on just about everything else. On that day, just as there was no animus between Israelis and Arabs, there was none between Republicans and Democrats either. And Ted believes that's the way it always should be. Ted Deutch: It was a bipartisan stellium of support, because this was a really important moment for the region and for the world, and it's exactly the kind of moment where we should look for ways to work together. This issue had to do with the Middle East, but it was driven out of Washington. There's no doubt about that. It was driven out of the out of the Trump administration and the White House and that was, I think, a reminder of the kind of things that can happen in Washington, and that we need to always look for those opportunities and when any administration does the right thing, then they need to be given credit for it, whether elected officials are on the same side of the aisle or not. We were there as people who were committed to building a more peaceful and prosperous region, with all of the countries in the region, recognizing the contributions that Israel makes and can make as the region has expanded, and then thinking about all of the chances that we would have in the years ahead to build upon this in really positive ways. Manya Brachear Pashman: On that warm September day, it felt as if the Abraham Accords not only had the potential to heal a rift in the Middle East but also teach us some lessons here at home. Even if it was impossible to resolve every disagreement, the Abraham Accords proved that progress and peace are possible when there are shared strategic interests, relationships, and a shared concern for the greater good.   Ted Deutch: I hope that as we celebrate this 5th anniversary, that in this instance we allow ourselves to do just that. I mean, this is a celebratory moment, and I hope that we can leave politics out of this. And I hope that we're able to just spend a moment thinking about what's been achieved during these five years, and how much all of us, by working together, will be able to achieve, not just for Israel, but for the region, in the best interest of the United States and in so doing, ultimately, for the world. That's what this moment offers. Manya Brachear Pashman: In the next episode, we meet Israelis and Arabs who embraced the spirit of the Abraham Accords and seized unprecedented opportunities to collaborate.

Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring key issues currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World, with host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan speaking with legal expert on genocide Menachem Rosensaft. Rosensaft is an adjunct professor of law at Cornell Law School and lecturer-in-law at Columbia Law School, where he teaches the law of genocide -- since 2008 at Cornell and since 2011 at Columbia. A dedicated pro-Israel US Jewish leader, Rosensaft is the general counsel emeritus of the World Jewish Congress and has been part of the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, most notably sitting with PLO leader Yasser Arafat alongside four other American Jewish leaders in 1988, after which Arafat said he recognized the State of Israel's right to exist. Rosensaft discusses the important legal and rhetorical distinction between genocide and crimes against humanity or war crimes, feeling that the definition's precision is being diluted in popular use. We learn about the history and evolution of Raphael Lemkin's definition of genocide and the ripple effect it has caused. He emphasizes that Israel cannot be held out as the sole villain in the ongoing war, and explains how Hamas exhibits genocidal intent and ideology. However, the statements from a handful of far-right Israeli politicians is making South Africa's December 2023 legal case accusing the Jewish state of genocide much harder to win. Finally, he rails against the Israeli government's weaponization of the word "antisemitism" for all dissent against the Jewish state, but doubles down on the need for an ongoing peace process leading to a Palestinian state. And so this week, we ask genocide legal expert Menachem Rosensaft, what matters now.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's newest podcast series, Friday Focus. Each Friday, join host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. This week, as Israel marks the beginning of the Disengagement from Gaza 20 years ago, we speak with former Brooklynite Anita Tucker, 79, who helped settle Nezer Hazani in 1977 and was forcibly removed from her home in 2005 alongside her husband, children and grandchildren. Affectionately called "the celery lady" due to her flourishing Gush Katif farm, Tucker describes how her young children were the deciding factor for staking their tent pegs in the barren land of Nezer Hazani after she viewed them "sledding" down the dunes on garbage bags. This same inert sand allowed the residents to grow their trademark, bug-free Gush Katif vegetables with the newest agricultural technology -- drip irrigation. She talks about warm relationships with her Arab neighbors -- until talk of "peace" came and the empowerment of PLO leader Yasser Arafat. She describes how once Arafat established a foothold in Gaza, he hanged the leadership of Deir al-Balah, who were Tucker’s close personal friends. She speaks about the terror attacks the community absorbed, but the ideological faith that their community was protecting the rest of the Land of Israel. Former prime minister Ariel Sharon's announcement of a unilateral pullout from Gaza came as a betrayal and we hear how the youth protested against this move until the very end. But after the pullout, the former Gush Katif residents experienced a second betrayal in that they had to fight to get compensation and rebuild their lives. Tucker and much of the original settlement refounded Nezer Hazani seven years later inside the State of Israel, but, as she says, these are their "houses," they are not their "homes." Tucker speaks to the community's yearning to resettle the Gaza Strip and how concrete plans have been presented to the Israeli government during what the potential resettlers view as a window of opportunity. Friday Focus can be found on all podcast platforms. This episode was produced by the Pod-Waves.

Veteran diplomat Stuart Eizenstat joins The Gist to discuss The Art of Diplomacy: How American Negotiators Reached Historic Agreements That Changed the World, drawing on his work from Camp David to Holocaust reparations. He shares what it means to practice “unsympathetic empathy,” how German officials came to see moral obligation in restitution, and why negotiations fail when mutual interest is absent. Eizenstat contrasts the courage of leaders like Sadat and the UAE's Mohammed bin Zayed with Arafat's refusal to compromise—even amid opportunity. Plus, the Sackler immunity case is a prime example of a major real-world development that resulted from a Supreme Court acting far outside its supposed 6–3 rigidity.
