Bernard Regan, The Balfour Declaration: Empire, the Mandate and Resistance in Palestine
The Israel Lobby, Islamophobia and Judeophobia in Contemporary Europe and Beyond: Myths and Realities
Accusations of anti-Semitism have become the habitualised weapon used against critics of Israeli war crimes. Most of such claims are built on the argument that there is a ‘New anti-Semitism’ of the political left, as this is where the most critics of Zionism are based. This article maps the development of such bogus claims, originating in France and the US, where the two varieties of the argument are based; by analyzing such claims, it becomes cl…

In July 1995 Yosefa Loshitzky and Haim Bresheeth (žabner) went on a honeymoon trip to Europe. What may have looked like a traditional destination choice for a newly married couple was in fact nothing of the sort for Haim and Yosefa, two Israeli dissidents living in London. Among their more predictable choices of conventionally attractive places such as the French countryside, the Swiss Alps and the like, their trip also included visits to the Tre…

The Arab Spring: A View from Israel
The Arab Spring is one of the most complex and surprising political developments of the new century, especially after a decade of anti-Muslim and anti-Arab western propaganda. While is too early to properly evaluate the process and its various national apparitions, it is important to see it in a historical context. This article places the Arab Spring firmly within the history of pan Arabism, and the threat it posed to the west and Israel in its e…
Two Theses on the Afghan Woman: Samira and Hana Makhmalbaf Filming Agheleh Farahmand
The appearance in 2003 of two films made by two sisters of the famous cinematic Makhmalbaf clan marked another first for this unusual group. At Five in the Afternoon, a feminist feature film shot in Afghanistan by the elder sister Samira, a short time after the Allied invasion, was closely followed by Joy of Madness, a feature length documentary by her thirteen‐year‐old sister, Hana. Hana’s film was something more than a ‘making of’ film of her s…
Shirin Neshat’s Women Without Men
For those acquainted with Shirin Neshat’s oeuvre, the appearance of her first feature film, Women Without Men (2009) made with Shoja Azari, her usual collaborator since 1998, is a special and excit
Projecting Trauma: War Photography and the Public Sphere
Images have been reproached for being a way of watching suffering at a distance, as if there were some other way of watching. Susan Sontag 1 The photographic image at once exposes us to, and insula
The Nakba Projected: Recent Palestinian Cinema
The media war — USA vs. EU: The market share battleground
The opening of the global markets in the Third World and the sites of the collapsed Soviet empire provides massive opportunities for the global media markets dominated by a number of contenders — the USA, the growing EU, Japan, and the ‘tiger’ economies of Southeast Asia. What is at stake is both economic and cultural dominance. This paper examines one aspect of this struggle — the battle for domination in the arena of film and television product…
