Jewish state' demand bares clashing Mideast narratives

By Selim Saheb Ettaba -JAN 26,14-yahoonews

Ramallah (Palestinian Territories) (AFP) - The controversy over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's demand that the Palestinians recognise Israel as a Jewish state is rooted in the clashing historical narratives of the decades-old conflict.Palestinians have dismissed the demand, pointing to the fact that they recognised Israel in 1993 at the start of the peace process and insisting it's not for other nations to define a state's national or religious character.Israeli President Shimon Peres, recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize for the 1993 Oslo Accords with the Palestinians, reportedly agrees, and this week was said to have called the request "unnecessary."But Netanyahu insists the demand gets to the very heart of the conflict, which he says is the refusal of Arabs to accept the right of Jews to a nation-state in the Middle East.For Israel, the Zionist dream was realised in 1948, but for the Palestinians that year brought the "Nakba," or catastrophe, when 760,000 fled or were forced out of their homeland.The Palestinians fear that accepting Israel as a "Jewish state" would amount to relinquishing the "right of return" of the refugees -- who now number some five million people -- and undermine the rights of Israel's sizable Arab minority.The dispute was thrown into focus last weekend when the UN cultural agency suspended an exhibit tracing 3,500 years of ties between the Jewish people and the Holy Land following a complaint by 22 Arab member states that it would "impact negatively" on US-brokered peace talks relaunched last year.In Israel, cancellation of the exhibition was seen as an Arab-led attempt to delegitimise the millenia-long Jewish connection to the land."It would not harm the negotiations. Negotiations are based on facts, on the truth, which is never harmful," Netanyahu told his cabinet on Sunday.The Palestinians, who view themselves as the descendants of all the various peoples who have dwelled in the Holy Land since ancient times, saw the staging of the exhibit as an attempt to delegitimise their own connection to the land.And they view the "Jewish state" demand as a departure from the peace talks, which they say are aimed at creating a Palestinian state and ending the occupation of east Jerusalem, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip that began in 1967."We totally reject, on principle, the demand to recognise Israel as a Jewish state," Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas said last Friday in Morocco.
"We reject attempts to rub out our historical narrative and to erase our collective memory," said the Palestinian president, who himself is a refugee from 1948.'Obsessive-compulsive behaviour'Senior Palestinian negotiator Nabil Shaath said last week that Israel had succeeded in imposing its view of events on the latest peace talks, which are being steered by US Secretary of State John Kerry."From the Israeli point of view, recognition of the state of Israel as a Jewish state is equal to cancelling the right of return, based on (UN) Resolution 194," he said, describing it as "an entirely new requirement."According to Tel Aviv daily Israel Hayom, Peres also sees Netanyahu's position as problematic."In conversations held by Peres in the past weeks with senior diplomatic and political figures, he explained that this insistence by Netanyahu was 'unnecessary,'...since it could derail the peace negotiations," the paper wrote."The position of Peres is important and proves that recognition of a Jewish State is not among the final status issues," chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erakat told AFP, referring to core disputes over borders, Jerusalem and security arrangements.The question of the 1948 refugees is one of the most thorny issues of the talks, with the Palestinians insisting the matter be resolved on the basis of resolution 194, which defines principles for their "right of return.""We will never accept the violation of the rights of refugees, which are guaranteed by international law and international resolutions," Abbas said.Israel opposes the return of the refugees and their descendents, arguing that it would destroy the state's national and religious character by making Jews a minority.But writing in Israeli daily Haaretz, leftwing commentator Gideon Levy compared Israel to a neurotic person who constantly has to check whether a door is locked or not."Israel is exhibiting classic signs of obsessive-compulsive behaviour," he wrote."Everything is directed to achieve the goal that was reached long ago... The prime minister invents demands that the Palestinians recognise a locked door."

PM would let all settlers remain in West Bank, official says

Netanyahu will not force any Jews living in what would become ‘Palestine’ to leave, and would insist they get the option to stay where they are under peace deal

By Raphael Ahren January 26, 2014, 2:48 pm 8-The Times of Israel

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu does not intend to uproot Jewish settlements anywhere in the West Bank, and will not force any settlers to leave, even under a permanent peace deal with the Palestinians, a well-placed official in the Prime Minister’s Office told The Times of Israel on Sunday. Rather, the prime minister will insist that settlers be given the free choice of remaining in place and living under Palestinian rule, or relocating to areas under Israeli sovereign rule, the official said.That requirement seems certain to constitute a significant obstacle in Israeli-Palestinian peace efforts, since Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has categorically rejected the idea of any Israeli — soldier or civilian — remaining in a Palestinian state.The official was explaining and elaborating on comments made Friday by Netanyahu during a press conference in Davos, Switzerland. “I have said in the past, and I repeat today: I do not intend to remove a single settlement, [and] I do not intend to displace a single Israeli,” Netanyahu said.The prime minister was answering a question relating to the Jordan Valley, and it was not entirely clear from his remarks whether he was relating solely to the Jordan Valley or the entire West Bank, and whether he was speaking about his stance in the short-term or his permanent position. Sunday’s comments to The Times of Israel by the official in his office resolved those questions: The prime minister was referring to the entire West Bank, the official made clear, and his refusal to require any settlers to leave applies in the long-term, even after the establishment of a Palestinian state.While the official said Sunday that Netanyahu’s stance on the issue was “longstanding,” Friday’s press conference marked the first time since peace talks began in August that the prime minister had explicitly articulated this position in public.“His consistent position has been that those settlements that will be on the Palestinian side of the border should not be uprooted,” the official told The Times of Israel. “Just as Israel has an Arab minority, the prime minister doesn’t see why Palestine can’t have a Jewish minority. The Jews living on their side should have a choice whether they want to stay or not.”

Netanyahu first hinted at this position in his May 2011 speech to the US Congress in Washington, the official noted. “The status of the settlements will be decided only in negotiations,” Netanyahu said at the time. “In any peace agreement that ends the conflict, some settlements will end up beyond Israel’s borders.” During that speech, he did not make explicit that settlers located east of the border must be given the option to stay, but he has said so in several meetings in recent weeks, the official said.While in Davos, Netanyahu meet with US Secretary of State John Kerry three times to discuss the current peace talks. Kerry said he would soon present a position paper that would “achieve a framework for the negotiations that will define the endgame and all the core issues, and provide guidelines for the negotiators in their efforts to achieve a final-status peace agreement.”The settlements are one of the core issues that will be addressed by the framework agreement, the Israeli official said. He declined however, to specify what the paper would say about the future of Israeli settlers in parts of the West Bank designated for the future Palestinian state. It is highly unlikely that Washington would adopt Netanyahu’s demand to allow all settlers, notably including those situated outside the main settlement blocs, to remain in their homes. Kerry said in Davos that all IDF soldiers would ultimately have to leave a Palestinian state.The Palestinians categorically reject the idea of any settlers remaining on the territory of their future state. “In a final resolution, we would not see the presence of a single Israeli — civilian or soldier — on our lands,” Abbas said in July, just before the current peace talks were launched.The idea of letting settlers choose whether they want to return to Israel proper or remain living in Palestine was first suggested in 2006 by then-prime minister Ehud Olmert. “Each and every one of the settlers who live in territories that stand to be evacuated will need to decide whether to live in a Jewish state, the State of Israel, or in a Palestinian state,” Olmert said, in response to a question about whether he intended to uproot tens of thousands of people from their homes in a future peace deal.Netanyahu was and remains a fierce critic of the 2005 disengagement from Gaza, under which prime minister Ariel Sharon forced the evacuation of all Gaza settlers and the demolition of their settlements.

Fatah official calls for ‘coordinated’ armed resistance

Palestinians will reject any agreement presented by Kerry and American ‘liars’, Central Committee member Tawfiq Tirawi says

By Elhanan Miller January 26, 2014, 4:15 pm 2-The times of Israel

Negotiations with Israel will lead to “zero results” if not fortified by armed resistance, a senior Fatah official said, adding that the first signs of a new Palestinian uprising have already begun to appear on the ground.

An American framework agreement expected to be presented in the coming weeks to the negotiating teams will never receive Palestinian endorsement if based on parameters currently being voiced by the Americans, said Tawfiq Tirawi, a member of Fatah’s Central Committee and head of the official Palestinian investigation committee into the death of Yasser Arafat, speaking to Lebanese news channel Al-Mayadeen Thursday.

“We [in Fatah] know what the Israelis and Americans are suggesting [in the negotiating room]. So far, the negotiations are taking place only with the Americans, not the Israelis, and the Americans are liars. There is no framework agreement. It’s a lie. Even if Kerry [presents] an agreement, Palestinians will reject it. There will be a vote, either inside Fatah or among the Palestinian leadership, and the American proposals will be rejected,” Tirawi said.A number of senior Palestinian officials have voiced public skepticism regarding the possibility of negotiations with Israel leading to a deal, as the nine-month time frame for talks approaches its end in April. Last month, PLO official Yasser Abed Rabbo blasted US Secretary of State John Kerry for “breaking a promise” to end negotiations on all core issues during the original framework.But Tirawi voiced skepticism that negotiations alone could ever produce a Palestinian state.“There is no possibility of a Palestinian state being established on the West Bank and Gaza in the coming 20 years. None at all. Anyone who believes otherwise is wrong. Negotiations will bring us nothing … we, all Palestinian factions, must return to the cycle of action. When we will do this, many things will change.”Asked what he meant by the cycle of action, Tirawi clarified he was speaking of “resistance in all of its forms.”“Steadfastness is also resistance, negotiations are also a form of resistance, but there must be something on the ground as well … weapons, popular resistance, there are 100 methods to resist.”Palestinians were pushed into negotiations with Israel by a consensus of Western and Arab states which insisted on diplomacy, leaving the Palestinian leadership no option but to agree, Tirawi said.“It’s true that most PLO factions were against [entering negotiations], but there’s something called Palestinian national interests. Did we compromise on any of our principles? No. That’s what is important.”Tirawi’s words were tacitly directed at PA President Mahmoud Abbas, who consistently speaks out against armed violence toward Israel, preferring to focus efforts on “popular resistance,” namely boycotts, demonstrations, and limited violence such as stone throwing. In a recent speech before a crowd of Jerusalem activists, Abbas praised the behavior of villagers from Qusra, near Nablus, who apprehended “with their bare hands” settlers suspected of preparing a price tag attack.

The resumption of armed resistance, Tirawi argued, must be done in an organized and coordinated manner, not sporadically.“There should be a strategic national plan that all organizations can agree upon, both within the PLO and without it,” he said.Tirawi noted that the first signs of a new Palestinian uprising could already be felt on the ground in Palestinian towns and villages: increased stone throwing, tire burning, confrontations with settlers and soldiers.“The big explosion in Palestine is coming. All of Israel’s actions have placed the Palestinian public under immense pressure. They have no choice but to explode in the face of the occupation.”Speaking as head of the investigation team into the death of Yasser Arafat, Tirawi rejected as “political” the French forensic report released last month ruling out the possibility that the late Palestinian president died of poisoning.Tirawi, who served as head of General Intelligence in the West Bank under Yasser Arafat and was accused by Israel of involvement in terrorism during the Second Intifada, added that the Russian report which found Arafat’s cause of death “inconclusive” detected a second material in his body other than polonium, inserted from the outside.“We are testing this substance chemically,” Tirawi said, adding that he is convinced that Israel was behind the death.“It’s not like searching for a needle in a haystack, it’s like searching for a needle in an ocean. Let’s hope we succeed.”

Video: Arab Rioters Attack IDF Convoy

IDF jeeps are ambushed west of Beit El. No soldiers were hurt.-By Dalit Halevy-First Publish: 1/26/2014, 4:51 PM-Israelnationalnews

Firebomb ambush-Screenshot

A video uploaded to Youtube Sunday claims to show an ambush carried out earlier in the day by young Arab Muslims against an IDF jeep patrol in the village of Deir Abu Mashaal, west of Beit El and Ramallah.
The short video shows three IDF jeeps driving down one of the village streets and turning left at a T junction. As the last jeep prepares to turn, a young terrorist is seen running on the roof of a building and hurling an object at the jeep.At the same time, 12 young attackers emerge from the other side of the street to attack the convoy from behind. The one running ahead of the pack hurls a firebomb at the jeep and it explodes on the roof. The others use the moment to approach the jeep and throw objects at it.The video was shot from the roof of a nearby building and the event has all the markings of a preplanned ambush that was prepared on the basis of information gathered during previous IDF patrols of the village.No soldiers are known to have been hurt in the attack. However, it joins a slew of increasingly daring attacks on Israeli security forces, and a pattern that repeats itself in all of them is the Israelis' reluctance to open fire. This reluctance stems from fear of an ultraleftist legal system and media, which routinely combine forces to punish IDF officers and soldiers for almost any use of force.

PM: Final Iran deal can’t work if it won’t stop enriching

Netanyahu says diplomatic effort is for naught if Tehran refuses to change course, adds that charm offensive failing

By Marissa Newman January 26, 2014, 5:21 pm 1-The times of Israel

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cast doubt on the chances of a diplomatic solution stopping Iran’s nuclear program, saying that if President Hassan Rouhani continues to insist that Tehran will not halt centrifuge enrichment,  ”that means that a final settlement, which is the aim of the diplomatic process with Iran, cannot succeed.”Netanyahu made his remarks at the start of the weekly cabinet meeting Sunday, denouncing for a second time Rouhani’s address at the World Economic Forum in Davos.“We know the truth — there is a regime that under the guise of a charm offensive is attempting to arm itself with nuclear weapons, to become a threshold state that can obtain nuclear weapons very quickly, and one that hasn’t changed a whit of its true ideology,” he continued.Netanyahu conceded that within Iran there are dissenting opinions regarding the nuclear program, but stressed that that did not change its official policy.The prime minister also noted that in talks with foreign leaders, he found that officials see through the Iranians’ seemingly moderate position and are aware of the Islamic Republic’s contradictory positions on Syria and the nuclear program.In an immediate response to Rouhani’s speech on Thursday, Netanyahu said that the Iranian president was continuing “Iran’s deception show” and that the international community “must not be fooled and must prevent Iran from attaining the capability to produce nuclear weapons.”“At a time when Rouhani talks about peace with the countries of the Middle East, he refuses — even today — to recognize the existence of the State of Israel, and his regime daily calls for the destruction of the State of Israel,” Netanyahu said. “At a time when Rouhani claims that Iran is not interested in a nuclear project for military purposes, Iran continues to strengthen its centrifuges and heavy water reactor, and to arm itself with intercontinental missiles, the sole purpose of which is for nuclear weapons.”Rouhani, in his address, said Iran’s nuclear program was peaceful, denied any nuclear weaponization goals, and said that his country was ready to engage in diplomatic relations with all countries it had officially recognized.Adiv Sterman contributed to the report.

Kiev rally canceled over protester memorial

-JAN 26,14-yahoonews

KIEV, Ukraine (AP) — Ukraine's opposition forces have called off a massive rally planned for Sunday because of the funeral for a protester killed in clashes with police last week.Mikhail Zhiznevsky, 25, was one of two protesters who died of gunshot wounds on Wednesday. The opposition contends they were shot by police in an area where demonstrators had been throwing rocks and firebombs at riot police for several days.The memorial service is to take place at Independence Square in the center of the Ukrainian capital, where protesters have established a large tent camp and held demonstrations around the clock since early December.Sunday rallies in previous weeks have attracted especially large crowds, sometimes exceeding 100,000 people.THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.After a violent night when protesters besieged a building where police were sheltering, Ukraine's capital is preparing for a large demonstration that will test the opposition's determination and authorities' patience.Throughout Ukraine's two-month-long political crisis, Sunday rallies have typically attracted crowds of tens of thousands and sometimes much larger.The latest rally comes a day after beleaguered President Viktor Yanukovych offered the country's prime minister post to one of the opposition's top leaders. While not rejecting the offer outright, Arseniy Yatsenyuk said more of the opposition's demands must be met, including Yanukovych's resignation. He vowed protests will continue.

Late Saturday, demonstrators threw firebombs and rocks into a building in central Kiev where about 200 police were sheltering. After several hours, the crowd formed a corridor and allowed police to leave.

Nearly 50 killed as Egypt marks revolt anniversary

4 hours ago-JAN 26,14-yahoonews

Cairo (AFP) - Nearly 50 people died in weekend clashes between supporters and opponents of Egypt's military, as media outlets on Sunday hailed rallies urging the army chief to run for the presidency.Three years after Egyptians rose up to demand the overthrow of Hosni Mubarak, thousands of demonstrators in Cairo's Tahrir Square on Saturday chanted slogans backing another military man, General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, as police clashed with Islamists and activists elsewhere.The health ministry said 49 people were killed when security forces moved to disperse protests across the country by supporters of deposed Islamist president Mohamed Morsi and activists who spearheaded the 2011 uprising.The police arrested 1,079 "rioters," said the interior ministry.Morsi was ousted by the military in July following mass protests calling on him to step down.Since then, his supporters have been staging near-daily protests calling for his reinstatement, despite a crackdown that has killed more than 1,000 people and imprisoned thousands.Widening their crackdown, authorities have also targeted secular activists, detaining some figures of the 2011 uprising for organising or taking part in unlicensed protests, after a disputed law adopted in November banned all but police-sanctioned rallies.And in a drastic escalation, they also blacklisted Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood movement as a terrorist group in December after a suicide bombing killed 15 people in a police headquarters north of Cairo.The attack was condemned by the Brotherhood and claimed by Ansar Beit al-Maqdis, an Al-Qaeda-inspired militant group based in the restive Sinai Peninsula that has claimed most of the major attacks targeting security forces in the country.Militant attacks have killed scores of Egyptian soldiers and policemen since Morsi's ouster, especially in the Sinai.On Sunday, armed assailants opened fire on a military bus in the North Sinai, killing four soldiers near a military checkpoint that was targeted by a rocket in the restive region.
Five soldiers were killed in a helicopter crash in the North Sinai on Saturday, but it was not immediately clear how the aircraft came down.The army has poured troops in the mountainous and underdeveloped peninsula, which borders the Palestinian Gaza strip and Israel, to combat the growing militancy.Security was beefed up across Cairo on Sunday.Roads leading to police stations were sealed off, two days after four bombs exploded in the capital, including a massive blast outside police headquarters. The attacks, which were claimed by Ansar Beit al-Maqdis, killed six people.Private and state-run media have hailed "the fight against terrorism" led by the security forces, often accusing the Brotherhood and its supporters of holding violent protests.On Sunday, they welcomed demonstrations organised a day earlier in Cairo's iconic Tahrir Square in support of the military-installed authorities, seeing in them "the people's challenge to terrorism".On Saturday, state-run and private television broadcast footage of the gathering in Tahrir, epicentre of the 2011 uprising.
Thousands showed up to call on army chief Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, the general behind Morsi's ouster, to run for the presidency. The turnout was lower than the June 30 mass protests demanding Morsi step down.

Sisi has previously indicated he could run for the presidency if there is enough "popular demand".Adly Mansour, the military-installed interim president, is to give "an important speech to the nation" on Sunday, his office said.It comes after 98.1 percent of voters who turned out for a two-day referendum last week approved a new constitution that paves the way for presidential and parliamentary elections.The two polls are part of a transitional roadmap decided soon after Morsi's ouster whose stated objective is to lead the country to democratic rule.Renewed violence could erupt as Morsi supporters have called for new protests on Sunday afternoon, and during the coming days, to mark the 18 days of the 2011 popular uprising.

Hollande visits Francis in light of friction between French government and Catholic Church

Francis and Hollande during their face-to-face meeting

During today’s meeting, Pope Francis and François Hollande discussed bioethics, family, Syria, the environment and migrants. Francis embraced the French priest who was kidnapped in Cameroon

Iacopo Scaramuzzi vatican city Today François Hollande held a 35 minute meeting with the Pope, followed by another meeting with the Secretariat of State, Mgr. Pietro Parolin and the Holy See’s “foreign affairs minister”, Mgr. Dominique Mamberti. In his first audience with the Pope since his election as President last 15 May, Hollande discussed the points the Holy See and France agree on and where they differ.“During the course of today’s cordial talks, emphasis was placed on religion’s contribution to the common good,” a diplomatic communiqué issued by the Holy See Press Office in the early afternoon reads. A part from recalling the good relations that exist between France and the Holy See, the two parties confirmed their mutual commitment to maintaining a regular dialogue between the State and the Catholic Church and to work constructively on issues that of common interest. A number of current issues relating to the defence and promotion of the dignity of the human person were also discussed. These included the family, bioethics, respect for religious communities and the protection of places of worship. The conversation then turned to international issues such as poverty and development, migration and the environment. A particular focus was given to conflicts in the Middle East and some regions of Africa. The hope is that peaceful coexistence can be restored within the countries in question and that rights for all will extend to all sections of society, especially ethnic and religious minorities.”In a statement to the press at the Institut francais, near Rome’s Piazza Navona, Hollande said he asked the Vatican to receive Syria’s main political opposition group, the Syrian National Coalition (SNC): “The Geneva conference must focus on a transition, we must do everything in our power to put an end to the conflicts and deploy humanitarian aid.” The French president confirmed that he shared “the same concerns” as the Pope for the minority Christian community in the Middle East: “France is for Christians in the Middle East being able to stay in the places where they have always lived and not being forced into exile as a result of the current fighting. Christians in the Middle East must be supported and protected wherever they are.” Hollande clarified that “France defends religious freedom everywhere,” it is “the birthplace of the freedom of conscience” and defends it “against all anti-religious acts.” During the press conference, Hollande also said he and the Pope spoke about the “big issue” of climate change ahead of a conference on this very subject, which France has scheduled for next year in Paris. The President confirmed that Francis is preparing a speech on the environment.Naturally, there was no word of Hollande’s private life, which caused a great scandal recently after news broke about his affair with French actress Julie Gayet and the crisis in his relationship with Valerie Trierweiler. Before the President’s visit to the Vatican, Catholic newspaper La Vie revealed that “the Pope’s a superstar to receive a head of State who’s so unpopular.” The communiqué issued by the Holy See, brushes over the difficult relationship between the Hollande presidency and the French Catholic Church: from the “mariage pour tous” law which legalises  same-sex marriage, to the end-of-life bill and the difference in positions over Syria, when the Élysée expressed itself in favour of military intervention. An open letter addressed the Pope and carrying the signatures of 110 thousand French Catholics, expressed a “deep unease” over the position of the Élysée on bioethical issues. The Apostolic Nuncio to France, Mgr. Luigi Ventura, announced that the Pope had expressed his interest in a recent “march for life” which took place in Paris.Today’s audience was also marked by a warm meeting between Francis and Georges Vandenbeusch, the French priest who was recently released after his kidnapping in Cameroon a few weeks ago. “Mon frère, je suis heureux de vous voire” (“my brother I am happy to see you”), Francis told the priest in French. When the moment came to hand out medals and rosaries to the members of the French delegation – including the Minister of the Interior, Manuel Valls and the French Ambassador to the Holy See, Bruno Joubert – the Pope spontaneously embraced the priest. François Hollande gave the Pope a book on St. Francis of Assisi. “He’s also your patron saint!” the Pope joked, referring to the President’s Christian name. Last night, a home-made bomb went off in the centre of Rome, near the French church of Saint Yves des Bretons. Investigators say it could be linked to Hollande’s visit to the Vatican. Meanwhile, a telephone call about two bombs being planted in St. Peter’s Square this morning, turned out to be a false alarm.
