If you ask literary and culture studies scholar Tamar Mishmar, a poet, the answer is no. According to Mishmar, questions such as "Is there such a thing as women's writing?" and "What does writing like a woman (if there is such a thing) mean?" have not been subject to meaningful discussion in Israeli culture.

The expectation was for an incisive report, which would prove just how severe the situation had become and show how the cruel state continues to abuse its poor citizens and push them further down below the poverty line.

On the contrary, one is overcome with the suspicion that the plan was thoroughly weighed right down to the last detail, and that it found favor with its advocates precisely because of its sinister content. ...

Dayan, who pooh-poohed such trivialities, looked at us with scorn and set us at ease by explaining that the Scud was a highly inaccurate weapon. "They'll aim at the General Staff HQ and hit Marcus' house," he said. "And that is not what will win the war for them." But in 1991, 39 Scuds were fired into Israel from Iraq, and the whole…

    The Iranian arms shipment, hijacked by Israel, included 3,000 rockets – a bit less than the total number Hezbollah fired at Israel during the 2006 Lebanon war. That shipment would bring Hezbollah’s rocket arsenals to about 50,000 – a mammoth amount by any measure. In the highly successful first strike of the 2006 war, IAF eliminated about half of Hezbollah rockets. No doubt, Hezbollah digs deeper and expects the next score to be much lower. Thus, it prepares to launch some 20-30 thousand missiles at Israel. Such attack would devastate Israel’s northern communities and…

The multibillion-dollar weapons deal would give Saudi Arabia S-400 and other highly capable Russian weapons. The deal is fishy: it is unthinkable that the US would surrender its major weapons market to the Russians. In terms of purchasing-power parity, a $7 billion Saudi purchase from Russia means a $35 billion loss for the American…

Clad in a military uniform and firing an automatic pistol and another weapon, Hasan sprayed bullets inside a crowded medical processing center for soldiers returning from or about to be sent overseas.

Judge Goldstone has been maintaining that he saw no sign of pressure exerted by Hamas on any of his witnesses. And yet he felt menaced?

    On Sunday I managed to convince my dental hygienist to fit me in and promptly wished I hadn’t — as she was polishing an old filling, right in the front, started to come apart. She stopped polishing that tooth immediately, of course, and noted I needed to come in as soon as possible to have a new filling done…BUT in the meantime what was under that bit that fell off is not pretty. Groan. I got a lot of other things done on Sunday, most of which hurt my bank account — dress, shoes, etc. — or made me work frantic. I’m leaving in just a few hours and…

    When I went off to school in Ohio, one of my neighbours greeted me with “Welcome to Ohio, the Serial Killer Capitol of the World.” Ohio had the dubious distinction, she told me, of producing more serial killers than any other State– some were born there and some spent most of their childhoods there. After reading today about the newest serial killer, currently on the loose in Ohio, I got a bit more than curious as to just how many serial killers hailed from Ohio. What I’ve found so far is this: Neal Bradley Long and Charles Manson were both born and raised in Ohio.

So yesterday, I got up at 7 ready to do a marathon of errands, including going to Orange to get a new phone and seeking out a black dress for the wedding. I went nowhere. I couldn’t even go out to take out the trash or the litter (and I really needed to change out the litter!) I don’t mind going out and about in rain. In fact, I rather like it.

I was a bit more lax. If I was leaving the floor, I locked the door. But if I was just popping into a colleagues office two doors down for a quick question, I’d leave the door not only unlocked but semi-open. Yesterday just such a scenario occurred and I popped into a colleague and close friend’s office simply to inquire when we would be departing, since she had kindly offered me a lift…

To express the matter with a little more precision: Oren is refusing to personally attend an upcoming J Street conference, opting to send more junior representatives. In an apparent response, Tsipi Livni, Kadima chairwoman and head of the opposition in the Knesset, sent a note commending the new organization for its conference.The Driving Change, Securing Peace conference, set for October 25-28, is, I think, J Street's first major public event.

    So is Israeli Ambassador to the US Michael Oren going to address the J Street convention? It's not clear. Kishkushim had high hopes for American Jewish/Israeli relations upon his appointment. I can't say that I am terribly informed about what this organization represents, amounts to, how it functions. But a quick glance at their website gives the impression that it's an organization that positions itself as an alternative source of power to the demonized Israel Lobby of "K Street." Hence the name. They have a political action committee (PAC) to support their own candidates. It looks like the…

There are many native English speakers in their school (and in many of the schools in this city and around the country), who attend Dovrei Anglit (literally, English speakers) classes instead.

    One of the great strategic discussions that political policy makers and communications advisers debate endlessly is the value of laying out your policy platform in advance of an election. Too early, and the argument is made, you lay yourself open to counter-attack and allow your opponents to defuse your message. Too late, and you appear to stand for nothing and lose an edge in trying to defeat an incumbent regime. Complicating the issue is the proof text belief that governments defeat themselves far more often than oppositions win them. Examples abound on all sides of the issue.  Former…

    5 Nov 2009 | 10:43 pm
    Non-profit groups from 18 developing countries called on Saudi Arabia to “stop playing an obstructionist role” in the current climate change negotiations in Barcelona, claiming the oil kingdom’s delaying tactics will hurt the world’s poor. “Developing countries need all the support they can get,” said Wael Hmaidan of IndyACT Lebanon and founder of the Arab Climate Alliance in a statement issued Wednesday. “It is unfortunate to have a country among their ranks that is weakening their positions.” Saudi Arabia considers a climate change deal in…

  • Are Israeli Emission Controls Hopeless?

    Daniella Cheslow
    4 Nov 2009 | 12:12 pm
    Without any change in policy, Israel may be heading to double its current emissions by 2030. According to the Jerusalem Post, a study commissioned by Israel’s Minister of the Environment Gilad Erdan (left) and executed by the McKinsey consulting firm found that Israel’s problem is high population growth coupled with rising standards of living. The Post reports that Israeli emissions, at 10.2 tons per person per year, are more than Western Europe’s but half of the United States’. ย The lion’s share of those emissions come from electricity production. The coal…

  • Can Israelโ€™s Prime Ministerโ€™s Alternative Energy Agenda Help the Middle East?

    BrightSource solar energy company could be part of the alternative energy solution. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appears to be interested in leading his country away from its current dependence on imported oil and into various forms of alternative energy. But he wants his vision to go far beyond the borders of the tiny State of Israel and for it to be a goal for other nations to strive for as well. In a recent address at the 2009 Israeli Presidential Conference that occurred October 20-22 in Jerusalem, the Prime Minister spoke about a national project for “developing an…

    Climate change activists are pooling their resources as we speak in Barcelona at the Barcelona Climate Change Talks. This is an antecedent to the big United Nations climate change conference in Copenhagen in December where countries are expected to draft real solutions to stopping the over-production of greenhouse gases. Part-time Green Prophet Stacy Feldman reports from Barcelona: Itโ€™s crunch time on global climate change. This week, delegates from 192 nations are meeting in Barcelona, Spain, for the final five days of global negotiations leading up to the make-or-break UN Climate Change…

    This country is funny. Have you ever met someone who is an airhead yet somehow they have a full scholarship to a top university? They can figure out math problems that use numbers and letters but they canโ€™t remember to look both ways before crossing the street? That airhead is Israel. It seems weird but after I tell you what I tell you, I think you will agree. Hereโ€™s why Israel is such an airhead: Trains. It comes down to trains. In Jerusalem you have the light rail, or you have the tracks, dirt and mess of what is supposed to be a light rail. Itโ€™s been in the process of being built for…

    Living in Israel is never easy. Understatement. And now with talk about a third Intifada, actual rioting in the Old City and calls of the destruction of Israel from Arab leaders in East Jerusalem to Arab leaders in the Arab nations, life here seems to be more stressful than ever. Reading the news makes me nervous to walk the streets, ride the buses or be in crowded places. But I still go out and I still live my life here. In fact last night I went to the Matisyahu concert held at Sultan’s Pool right outside the walls of the Old City. On my way I couldn’t help but worry about the…

    AIMS Internet Marketing

    One thing I learned from experience was not to talk to potential clients about conversion optimization. They wanted traffic. And more traffic. If I mentioned conversion optimization I could hear their eyes glaze over through the phone. Recently, we had some calls from companies that wanted us to manage their Google Adwords campaign. However, after a couple of minutes it became clear to me that they need conversion optimization first. I took a chance and explained that if existing traffic is not converting enough it doesnโ€™t make sense to increase traffic even more. And they agreed. People…

    Most companies stumble when technology shifts. How can that happen with search engines? In 10 years the web will be 32 times as powerful as it is now. So instead of many results you may get a single Answer. At least that is what Kevin Maney suggests in his Atlantic Monthly article. Actually, Google does have an option for this-it is the “I’m Feeling Lucky” button which takes you directly to the 1st web site. Not exactly a button to inspire confidence in Google’s ability to give the Answer. In Hebrew it is worse-the rough translation is “More luck than…

    14 Sep 2009 | 6:02 am
    In the supermarket the other day I was happy to see a sale for low fat cottage cheese in a 3 pack. There were many 3 packs available and I soon found out why. The expiry date was fast approaching and my son nixed the purchase. Unfortunately there were no single low fat cottage cheese containers for sale–only these fast expiring 3 packs. Apparently this 3 pack idea didn’t go over well in this store. All I could think of was the VP Marketing person looking at his graphs which show that the 3 pack idea was increasing revenue and profits. What he forgot to do is segment his analysis.

  • What Obama Can Learn from the NFL and NBA about Salary Caps and Driving Innovation

    Michael Eisenberg
    20 Oct 2009 | 10:09 am
    For almost a year now, Washington has been abuzz about compensation caps for Wall Street executives. I can give a long litany of reasons why I think that is a bad idea that creates disincentives for recruiting great people to run these companies at their greatest time of need. As I have written in the past, America (and my home country of Israel for that matter) needs to invest in innovation. Interestingly, salary caps may be a way to spur brainpower into innovation. However, it is an inversion of the populist approach to salary caps currently in vogue.President Obama's administration could…

    In my opinion twitter is the best tool we have today to engage with others, spread a message, network, meet other like-minded people, and stay on top of the news, in any industry. The only aspect I’ve always found problematic on twitter was the impossibility of organizing information. This is something that’s changed now with the new twitter lists which allow you to organize people in any sort of list you like. So how have you been using lists? What sort of names have you been giving your lists?It’s quite interesting to see what lists people have put you under and how you…

    The tone of the recent spate of books by proponents of Atheism (capitalized, correctly, like any faith) says much.

Their confident public personae notwithstanding, the New Atheistsโ€™ cynicism and name-calling telegraph insecurity.

  • Confronting the Shidduch Crisis

    Jonathan Rosenblum
    5 Nov 2009 | 7:52 am
    Readers of Chananya Weissman’s piece “Shidduch crisis? What shidduch crisis?” (Jerusalem Post, October 21) will quickly discern that he does not think too highly of sixty American roshei yeshiva who recently published a public letter addressing the “shidduch crisis” in the Orthodox world. They are variously compared to Balaam’s donkey, accused of being “disconnected from logic and reality,” and described as attaching their names to “foolish words” comparable to declaring a chicken to be an ostrich. As someone who runs an organization…

  • Has Marriage Gone the Way of the Passenger Pigeon?

    Yitzchok Adlerstein
    3 Nov 2009 | 10:33 pm
    Marriage is, well, so retro. All the latest research shows that it doesnโ€™t make much sense for most people, so why bother trying? Read on. The article (”Let’s Call the Whole Thing Off“) in Augustโ€™s The Atlantic disturbed me like few others in memory. It also left me intensely proud to be a frum Jew. Sandra Tsing Loh is a witty and engaging writer. Rummaging through the debris of her failed marriage, however, has its pitfalls, including the very human reaction of wanting to look good to others and to herself. In a manner reminiscent of Esavโ€™s disparaging the birthright…

  • A Worthy Thought

    Avi Shafran
    30 Oct 2009 | 6:39 am
    Two South Carolina Republican Party chairmen were roundly denounced recently for invoking โ€œstereotypes about Jews,โ€ as the Anti-Defamation League declared, that will โ€œreinforce anti-Semitism.โ€ What Edwin Merwin and James Ulmer did was write an opinion piece in an Orangeburg newspaper, defending a senator under fire for shunning congressional earmarks. Unfortunately for them, they chose to make their case for fiscal responsibility in part by noting that financially successful Jews โ€œgot that way not by watching dollars, but instead by taking care of the pennies and the dollars taking…

  • Arab report: Extremists use sex to recruit suicide bombers

    6 Nov 2009 | 12:05 pm
    Al Arabiya is presenting an Arabic language TV show about suicide bombers tonight. In the show, they reveal that terrorist leaders explicitly use the lure of sex in Paradise as a means to recruit young men:An analysis of the content of SMS messages sent by the bombers before they blew themselves up showed that more than 80% of the suicide bombers mention a wish to meet virgins as one of the reasons that compel them to carry out these operations.[One man interviewed] said they refers to a button that, once pressed and activating the bomb, will come nymphs welcoming him to heaven. While there…

  • Lebanese school bans Anne Frank

    6 Nov 2009 | 11:29 am
    From AFP:Anne Frank's diary has been censored out of a school textbook in Lebanon following a campaign by the militant group Hezbollah claiming the classic work promotes Zionism.The row erupted after Hezbollah learned excerpts of "The Diary of Anne Frank" were included in the textbook used by a private English-language school in western Beirut.Hezbollah's Al-Manar television channel ran a report slamming the book for focusing on the persecution of Jews."What is even more dangerous is the dramatic, theatrical way in which the diary is emotionally recounted," said the report aired last week and…

  • Erekat: Compromise is not "realistic"

    6 Nov 2009 | 7:47 am
    From Palestine Press Agency:Dr. Saeb Erekat, chief negotiator of the Palestine Liberation Organization, said that the option of two countries on the borders of June 1967 is the only realistic option of making peace in the Middle East.In other words, the idea of compromise is anathema. The idea of any Jews living in the West Bank is unrealistic. The idea that a single Jew should remain in the Old City is horrendous and an obstacle to "peace." The very thought that Jews should have free access to their holy places or be able to live in towns on the east side of a border that Arabs rejected…

  • Palestinian Arabs are unique in international law

    6 Nov 2009 | 5:30 am
    The Guardian says that accused Fort Hood murderer Nidal Hassan was "the son of Palestinians from a village near Jerusalem."The New York Times says, "His motherโ€™s obituary, in The Roanoke Times in 2001, said she was born in Palestine in 1952."This got me to wondering about a contradiction in the standard pro-Palestinian Arab narrative that the world has swallowed whole.We all "know" that Israel is considered the legal occupier of the West Bank. It was declared as such by the UN and the ICJ, among others.The definition of occupation, however, is straightforward:"Military occupation occurs…

  • Marriage in Somalia

    6 Nov 2009 | 4:17 am
    An interesting article in Al Arabiya discusses how marriage has turned into a legal way of sleeping around for young Somalians, helped by random calls on inexpensive cell phones:Bile Farah, 25, said marriages nowadays have become more of an "entertainment.""I don't think I'd be sane if it were not for the 'Qudbasiro', free-of-charge secret marriages," the unemployed secondary school graduate told Reuters, sitting cross-legged on a ragged mattress and sending a text message with his phone."I've divorced nine women already. Voluntary brides and cheap phone services, it is the only life we…

  • ElBaradeiโ€™s moral blindness

    Vic Rosenthal
    6 Nov 2009 | 1:53 pm
    Mohammad ElBaradei, the outgoing head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), is shockingly biased, and should never have held that position. The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency downplayed Israel’s concern over an Iranian nuclear threat on Wednesday, telling a New York audience, “Truth is in the eyes of the beholder…” “If you look from the Arab point of view, the Arabs are as concerned or more about the Israeli nuclear weapons program as the Israelis are about the Iranian’s,” he said. The only solution, he said, “is to…

  • Short takes: postcolonialism, silly denials, media jihad

    Vic Rosenthal
    5 Nov 2009 | 9:31 pm
    I few weeks ago I wrote about ‘postcolonialism‘, whose adherents seem to believe that ‘the colonized’ can do no wrong. I said: Once it is established that one party is a โ€˜colonizerโ€™ and the other โ€˜colonizedโ€™, the game is over. For the postcolonialist, nothing that the colonizer does to defend himself is permissible, and anything that the colonized does in the name of resistance is justified. Today I have a wonderful example of this kind of thinking. Here’s a quote from the Palestinian Ma’an News agency: Islamic Hamas movement on Thursday slammed the…

  • Iran violates international law, Obama wants โ€˜mutual respectโ€™

    Vic Rosenthal
    4 Nov 2009 | 3:08 pm
    One of the thousands of rockets captured on its way from Iran to Hezbollah News item: Hundreds of tons of weaponry, ten times the size of the Karine A shipment of 2002, were seized in an overnight raid Tuesday by the Israeli navy, some 100 nautical miles west of Israel, officials said. Defense officials said the 140-meter long Francop, captured near Cyprus, was carrying arms sent by Iran and destined for Syria and Hizbullah. The weapons seized on the ship, which was sailing under an Antiguan flag, included 3,000 rockets of various types… Israel Radio reported that advanced anti-aircraft…

  • What are our policymakers thinking?

    Vic Rosenthal
    3 Nov 2009 | 2:19 pm
    Yesterday I had the honor of meeting Barry Rubin, one of the most knowledgeable people around about the Mideast.ย  One of the questions I asked him was this: FZ: We know that Syria is closely allied with Iran, receiving a large amount of weapons and other aid. We also know that Syria is helping Sunni insurgents in Iraq, who are fighting with Americans there, but who also are killing Iraqi Shiites in murderous suicide bombings and other terrorist attacks. But if Iran is trying to gain influence in Iraq through the Shiites there, why does it permit (or even encourage) this? Rubin replied, in…

    It’s a floating weekly collection of Jewish and Israeli blog highlights called haveil havalim, this week found on Simply Jews. There’s something for everyone there, including a post of mine! The name means “vanity of vanities”, in case you wondered.

  • UN General Assembly Endorses Report on Gaza

    [New York Times] Neil MacFarquhar - The UN General Assembly on Thursday voted 114 to 18, with 44 abstentions, to endorse the report by a Human Rights Council panel led by South African judge Richard Goldstone that said there was evidence that both Israel and the Palestinian group Hamas committed war crimes during the Gaza war last winter. The assembly's resolution also pushes for Security Council attention. France, Britain and Russia were among the countries that abstained, and the U.S. voted against the resolution, suggesting that Council action is unlikely.

  • Netanyahu: "The IDF Is a Moral Army Without Peer"

    [Prime Minister's Office] Prime Minister Netanyahu said Tuesday: The international community has "chosen to assemble and condemn the IDF and the State of Israel, and to try and undermine our legitimate right to defend ourselves. I would like to make it as clear as possible: This will neither deter us nor prevent us from continuing to act in order to defend Israeli citizens because Israeli citizens know the truth, that the IDF is a moral army without peer, either qualitatively or morally. We know that it is the IDF and the security services of the State of Israel that stand against the war…

  • Goldstone, Gold Debate UN Report on Gaza

    [Boston Globe] James F. Smith - International jurist Richard Goldstone offered a spirited defense Thursday of his bitterly disputed UN report on Gaza at Brandeis University, where he faced an equally spirited rebuttal from former Israeli diplomat Dore Gold, who called the report "the most serious and vicious indictment of the State of Israel bearing the seal of the United Nations" since an infamous resolution equating Zionism with racism in 1975. Gold said the Goldstone report all but ignored Israel's right to defend itself despite years of Palestinian rocket attacks and suicide bombings.

  • Iraq Election Body Seeks Vote Delay due to Law Row

    Iraq's electoral authorities called on Friday for polls due next January to be delayed after parliament failed once more to agree on how to hold the vote.

    The UN's nuclear watchdog has asked Iran to explain evidence suggesting that Iranian scientists have experimented with an advanced nuclear warhead design. The very existence of the technology, known as a "two-point implosion" device, is officially secret in both the US and Britain, but according to previously unpublished documentation in a dossier compiled by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Iranian scientists may have tested high-explosive components of the design.
