Abstract
The following paper discusses four different theories for explaining the entry of the people of Israel into the land of Israel, as seen by Callaway: Military incursion, gradual infiltration, peasant uprising and a composite view.
From the Paper
"In the period c. 1200 BCE, we find the shift from Late Bronze II to Iron I. The presence of iron tools allowed farmers (pioneers) to dig cisterns and engage in terrace-style farming. The book of Joshua argues for the total conquest of the land, by a unified force of Israelites. But, in places (Josh. 9, 13.13) it appears that the conquest was not total. The book of Judges suggests that the land was shared with the Canaanites and then the people attempted to conquer it. In this book, the conquest appears to be incomplete. (Judges 1.19-28, etc.). Archaeological evidence suggests that after 1560 BCE Jericho was no longer occupied."

"It has also been agreed upon that in case Jordan decides not to participate in the negotiations, the negotiations would be made by Israel and Egypt. The two governments unanimously agreed to persistently negotiate and in good faith to conclude such negotiations as soon as possible.

The Israel and Egypt had fixed the goal of completion of the negotiations within a period of one year so as to make possible the conducing of elections as expeditiously as possible after the agreement between the parties."

The Most Dominating Aspect of Family Law, 2008.
This paper looks at the most prominent and important aspect of family law and concentrates on the domestic realm.

Abstract
In this article, the writer expands on the belief that the most dominating aspect of family law is that it pertains to the domestic sphere. Further, the writer examines the repercussions of this domestic aspect of family law. The writer notes that one can see that the dominant aspect of Canadian family law with regard to both divorce and common law couples has changed. Moreover, this was also the dominant aspect with regard to the very nature of families, in that same-sex relationships have been legitimized to the full extent of the law. The writer points out that the last-mentioned change is certainly the most dramatic, setting Canada ahead of social trends in most countries, and illustrating perhaps most clearly of all how much Canadian family law has changed.
From the Paper
"Another aspect of family law that has been dominated by change has been the important sphere of divorce law. Boyd points out that at the beginning of the 20th century, people rarely divorced. However, a century later, divorce has become common-place. In fact, in many Canadian class rooms, there are more children from "broken" families than from intact families. As the century progressed, people became more willing to break their marriage vows and start over. Also, as divorce become more and more commonplace, people began to feel less guilt and failure about getting a divorce. Moreover, it is now a more secular time, and many people simply do not take their church vows as seriously. Canadian family law seems to have recognized this softening of social attitudes towards divorce, because it has made a series of changes to divorce law. Perhaps the most salient change has been that it has become much easier to obtain a divorce, particularly with the introduction of the concept of so-called "no-fault" divorce."

Israel.

Abstract
This paper explains that, although Zionists, who are people who believed that Jews should return to their ancient homeland, became active as early as the 19th century, the events of the 20th century resulted in the formation of the country of Israel. While many Israelis wanted to return to the land of their Biblical heritage, Palestine, Arabs in the Middle East did not think they should have to give up land for the new country. The author points out that two events in Israel's history since its formal establishment in 1947 show important facts about the country's history: the Six Day War in which the invading Arabs lost the Arab-designated area of Palestine, and the intifada, the current war over the Arabs desire to reclaim this land, a conflict over which both sides can be seen as both "right" and "wrong" and represents the greatest problem facing Israel today. The paper stresses that Israel's accomplishments are incredible in its 48 years. Israel has not yet worked out a solution to the problem of dislocated Palestinians. Through its military victories, Israel has demonstrated that warfare cannot solve this problem and that a peaceful solution will have to be found.

"As with any country's history, the victors write the history. Since Israel has managed to defend itself in multiple wars, Israel is the one who tells the story of those wars. Because of the Balfour Declaration endorsed by the League of Nations and supported by major powers of the world, Israel felt both morally and legally entitled to the land they occupied in Palestine. Critics note that this may have engendered an attitude by Israel that they were not responsible for the resulting Palestinian refugees. Cesarani (PAGE) notes that recent research by historians has shed new light on these issued."

Israel and the Security Fence, 2005.
This in-depth paper analyzes Israel's security policies as well as the ongoing controversial debate regarding the building of the security fence which would separate Israel from the Palestinians.

Abstract
This well-researched paper examines the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, while focusing on the various events that led to the decision to construct a security wall that would separate the two nations. This paper discusses Israel's implementation of "Operation Defensive Wall", which came about in 2002 in response to a suicide bombing in which 28 Israelis were killed by Palestinian terrorists that infiltrated Israel's borders. This in-depth paper analyzes Israel's history from its birth as a state in 1948 to the present as well as the country's continuous battle to survive amidst hostile Arab neighbors such as Syria. The writer of this paper contends that there are various options to maintaining a lasting peace between Israel and the Palestinians which do not include the security fence. One option would be to offer financial incentives to the Palestinians while another would be for Israel to withdraw to the pre-1967 borders. This paper discusses the pros and cons involved in Israel returning occupied land to the Palestinians in hopes for peace and lasting security.
From the Paper
"Since the end of formal hostilities in 1973, the attacks on Israel from its hostile neighbors have been replaced by shadowy groups that rely more on terror tactics than infantry and tanks. First the PLO, which led to Israel's invasion of Southern Lebenon in 1982 and subsequently Hizbollah, which was formed in 1983, and Hamas in 1988. Both of these groups had, as their stated intention, the murder of every Jew and the destruction of the state of Israel and its allies. It was after twenty years of these terrorist tactics, and the lives of hundreds of innocent Israelis, that Israel began to consider building a fence around its borders. It would be almost another ten years before it finally implemented this tactic. Israel's decision to build a wall separating itself from external threats has become a controversial one. Seen within Israel as the best chance to reduce or eliminate terrorism, and solidify the border between the Jewish state and the Palestinian state, it is viewed by much of the outside world as a symbol of oppression."

Israel and How the Middle East Was Won, 2006.
A critique of the existence of Israel.

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper is highly critical of the existence of Israel, claiming it has destroyed the Middle East. The author traces the early Zionist movement and the history of the Israel, while consistently denying the legitimacy of a Jewish homeland. The paper invokes well-known anti-Israel sources to support its thesis. The paper also challenges what he describes as myths about the development and existence of Israel. For instance, the author claims it is disingenuous to refer to Israel's War of Independence, when she was attacked by the entire Arab world, as a David and Goliath battle. He states that Israel "knew what they were up against and it was not much..." After critiquing Israel's actions in various wars against Arab countries, the author turns to international support for Israel. He is critical, in particular, of the United States' "blind" support for the Jewish state. The paper concludes by examining Israel's treatment of the Palestinian people, asking why a nation that had suffered in the Holocaust would 'turn around and do the same thing to someone else.'
From the Paper
""The Zionist argument to justify Israel's present occupation of Arab-Palestine has no intelligent or legal basis in history" (Shabazz 1). Omowale 'Malcolm X' Shabazz, an activist for Arab-Palestine, gave that statement in one of his articles arguing the Zionist movement. Malcolm X argued the basis of Israeli occupation is on the religious claim there forefathers lived there a thousand years ago. But he goes on to say that the Moors occupied Spain a thousand years ago, would this then give them a legal right to invade the Iberian Peninsula? The Zionist movement consisted of a revival of a Jewish nation state in an area known as Palestine. The Israeli invasion, however, has brought upon more turmoil and unrest than good. The development of an Israeli state has had an ill-fated effect on the inhabitants of all races and religions in the Middle East."

Abstract
This paper discusses how there were many factors that led to the creation of Israel. It shows how looking back two thousand years the old Testament in the Bible states that Abraham was guided by God to settle the land of Israel, once called Palestine. It also examines how because of Jewish persecution in the nineteenth century, Jews were forced out of their homes and forced to live in Ghettos and therefore wanted a land where they would not be punished for being Jewish.
From the Paper
"During the nineteenth century many Jews resided in Europe. Periodically they were persecuted for their beliefs and commonly called ?the killers of Christ? by the predominantly Christian community at the time. Because of this many Jews were forced to live in the poorer sections of towns in areas known as ghettos. Even from time to time state-approved acts of violence were allowed, targeted at the Jews, mainly in anti-Semitic demonstrations. These were known as pogroms. An example of one of these pogroms is in 1881 when the Jewish community at the time was blamed for assisting in the assassination of the Russian Tsar Alexander II where two hundred Jewish communities were looted and burned."

Summary
From the Paper
"Police are concerned that the Russian Mafia is seeking to infiltrate the government through Israel's primaries system. It takes a lot of money to be elected in the primaries, which leaves the door open for organized-crime figures who have a lot of cash to pass around, police sources say. And yet, the sources add, despite the accusations of cynics, the checks and balances of the country's democratic system make it difficult to infiltrate the government. This is likely to turn the Mafia towards municipal government."

Abstract
The writer compares the Israeli economy with the macroeconomic model pertaining to the circular flow of money through the economy, observing that the contraction occurring among the main economic actors (households and business sector) is not being reflected in the conduct of the Israeli government. The paper argues that the government is forced to maintain its level of military expenditure to counter the increasing level of violence the war is generating. With Israel?s contribution to the international export markets evaporating combined with decreasing business sentiment and consumer confidence, not to mention increasing dependence on the U.S. for foreign aid, the future of Israel?s economic health does not bode well. The paper also argues that Israel needs to establish true peace before it can hope to overcome its economic recession.
From the Paper
"Israel is an economy that has previously defied economic forecasts. Up until recently, its economy did not comply with the normal prerequisites for success. However, with the escalating presence of its war of attrition with Palestine, the factors that were once driving its economic growth and defying its detractors, is now slowly being eroded by its increasing commitment to fighting Palestine. This paper endeavors to explore the factors that once drove Israel?s economic growth and the aspects of the Israel-Palestinian war that are now hampering Israel?s economic health. By comparing the case of Israel to standard macroeconomic models, one can observe the unique case posed by Israel?s economy."

From the Paper
"Syria demands the return of land that it claims belongs to the country. In the eyes of the Syrian people, the land is Arab land at the very least and Syria has the most reasonable claim to it since it possessed the land prior to the Israeli occupation. Unable to reclaim the land due to a feeble military and fractured economy, Syria has taken more sinister steps to pressure the Israelis into negotiating. Primarily the Syrians have launched terrorist attacks through the use of Hezzbolah which have killed and injured thousands of Israelis. Through the actions taken by the terrorists, the Golan Heights have been brought to the negotiating table where Syria can have its demands heard."

U.S. Aid to Israel, 2002.
An insight into the military and economical aid to Israel by the United States and a discussion of why the U.S. government continues to support Israel.

Abstract
This paper addresses the issue of aid provided by the United States to Israel with a pro-Palestinian bias. It discusses how, while the rest of the world strongly condemns Israel?s occupation of the Palestinian Territories, the U.S. government provides the political, diplomatic and material means for the occupation to continue at the tax payer's expense. It evaluates how this is causing the rise in hatred towards the U.S. calling for extra suspicion and caution and shows how hate can leave the most powerful country in the world the most vulnerable after the tragedy of September 11.
From the Paper
"Then why does the United States forego its ethical values and support Israel? One reason is simple; the U.S. relies on Israel to test out new military technologies in battle conditions. Israel has cooperated with the US arms industry on research and development for new jet fighters, anti-missile defense systems, and even the Strategic Defense Initiative. The U.S. also requires Israel to use 75 percent of all the military aid it receives to buy U.S.-made arms. This means profit for us, and Israel?s military dominance in the region, in a region already buried in hate and violence. It produces threat for whole the Middle East through its nuclear capacities, but no country in the world other than the U.S. can use this as an excuse to take over the other- such the case with the ongoing Iraq war plans."

Abstract
This paper looks at the leadership of Israel, where ideological imperatives and their institutionalization have represented an important part of Israel?s evolution. It discusses how Israel?s early leadership established internal and external legitimacy in the new state. It examines the government from the establishment of Mapai in 1930 until the 1977 Knesset elections where Labor, and its predecessor, Mapai, represented the dominant party.
From the Paper
"Even though the state of Israel declared its independence in 1948, modern history started with the Zionist movement founded by Theodor Herzl in 1897. Israel's basic ideology, many of its modern political institutions and parties, its internal and external legitimacy, and the individuals who established had their roots in the Zionist movement. The main goal of this movement was to establish internal legitimacy by creating "a home in Palestine secured by public law? for the Jewish people. They established both internal and external legitimacy as a state by successfully freeing Israel from Britain?s reign and becoming a safe haven for Jews from all over the world."

Education in Israel and the U.S., 2004.
This paper compares the educational systems in the United States and Israel and shows how they reflect their cultures.

Abstract
This paper explains that, while the educational systems of the United States and Israel share a number of commonalities in structure and ethnic strife, there are some fundamental differences between the two countries in terms of how education is viewed and for what purposes schools are intended. The author points out that the separation of church and state in public schools in the United States is virtually unheard of in Israel, but both school systems recognize the need to provide for a literate society in the future by providing students with a relevant and timely education today. The paper relates that the general effectiveness of the respective educational systems in the United States and Israel can be considered in terms of the national literacy rates, with both nations achieving high levels of overall literacy; in the United States, the literacy rate is 97 percent, compared with a slightly lower overall literacy rate of 95.4 percent in Israel.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Schools are unique in any society since they educate and mold the next generation who will then be in charge of how the world will shape up and how these schools will be run in the future. Educators in every country help shape the character and the morality of their students beyond the intellectual and physical instruction provided. An education today must prepare a person for the realities of life, including how to balance a checkbook, answer an employment ad, and how to comport oneself at a job interview. These fundamental skills are just part of a huge body of knowledge which includes everything about a given society and the world in which people live."

From the Paper
"This study will provide a brief overview of Steve Posner's Israel Undercover: Secret Warfare and Hidden Diplomacy in the Middle East. The study will then provide an analysis of the contents of the book.
In brief, Posner's book is designed to take a realistic look behind the scenes of the struggle in the Middle East between Israel and the Arabs.
It is not a hopeful work, but its hard-nosed realism provides a context in which compromise can be seen as the only alternative to complete destruction.
As Posner writes, an overview of the region itself yields a discouraging portrait if one takes what one finds at face value. As the author writes: "In the Middle East, there are those who believe that the land cannot support both victor and vanquished."
