The Middle East Peace Process: Towards Another Stalemate?Przemyslaw Osiewicz
The Middle East conflict has remained one of the core issues of contemporary international relations since World War II. One of the most important matters is to define whether the Middle East peace process is related to the Middle East conflict or, more precisely, to the Arab-Israeli conflict. With respect to land, there are two possible scenarios. Firstly, Palestinians living under Israeli administration. Secondly, a two-state solution, namely an official recognition of the state of Israel by all Arab states and the foundation of a Palestinian state. So far, there have been dozens of peace plans, for example, the Oslo Peace Process, the Taba talks of 2001, the Road Map of 2003, and the Annapolis Conference of 2007. None of them resulted in a comprehensive solution. The question is, if the international community will face another stalemate in case of the Middle East peace process. Might the so-called Arab awakening, namely all the ongoing political and social processes in the Arab states, change the situation in the re-gion?

Critical Analysis of Xenophobic Attacks in South Africaijtsrd
This research is a critical analysis of xenophobic attacks in South Africa. Xenophobia is a fear of strangers or foreigners. The discrimination and unfair treatment against foreigners is as old as the history of the World. This controversial issue of xenophobic attacks has attracted scholars who attempt to find a lasting solution to the issue. We exist at a time where government and authorities look away when such matters arise. We exist at a time where government and authorities look away when such matters arise. The foreigners are to face stigmatization and even death threat, without protection from relevant authorities. Our objective here is to find out what normally trigger xenophobic attacks on foreigners What can be done to stop xenophobia and xenophobic attacks around the World We deploy qualitative method, using critical conceptual analysis and speculative approach consulting textbooks, journals, newspapers, and surfing the internet for available relevant materials. The study concluded that the issue of xenophobia can be put to rest by educating people through enforcement of educational policy with action plans that include the revision of history and civil education curriculum to accommodate some moral contents.

Pinkwashing is a common propaganda device utilized by the state of Israel in an attempt to gain LGBTQ support for the Israeli state by painting Israel as a safe-haven for gays against the backdrop of a “backward” Middle-East. Israel’s mythologized acceptance of gays has been used on the international stage to take the focus away its ongoing and brutal oppression of Palestinians and the apartheid policies of the state.
The carnage that we see today in the Gaza Strip is nothing new, because it has already occurred countless times in the past throughout Palestine, although this time, the horror of the Israeli government's crimes against humanity reaches new and shameful records . Jews who love peace and justice need to prevent the government of Israel from continue practicing the barbarism to which the Palestinian population is subjected, which reached its highest level during the contemporary era, fighting for its end in defense of the values of civilization. Enough of the barbarism in the Gaza Strip.

Migration Crisis: International Cooperation and National StrategiesRussian Council
Migration has moved to the top of the global political agenda in recent times. The unprecedented influx of
refugees to Europe, on the one hand, and the high rate of South–North economic migration on the other,
have led to sharp political and public opinion divisions.
Over the last year-and-a-half, the expressions “migration crisis” and “refugee crisis” have become firmly
lodged in the political and journalist discourse. However, to what extent does the term “crisis” reflect the
real state of affairs? And to what extent does it reflect the way it is perceived? What can be done at the
national and international levels to change the situation? What is the current state of international cooperation on migration regulation? What is the outlook for this cooperation in the foreseeable future? And
what is Russia’s place in this cooperation?
The abovementioned issues were discussed during the II International conference “Migration crisis:
international cooperation and national strategies”, that was held on September 22-23, 2016 in Moscow
and organized by Russian International Affairs Council (RIAC) and The Russian Presidental Academy of
National Economy and Public Administration (RANEPA). The paper presents the key results of the discussion of the following questions: (1) an analysis of the international migration system over the past half a century; (2) an examination of the demographic, economic, political and humanitarian aspects of the
crisis; (3) a look at the phenomenon of migration in reference to security problems; (4) a review of the state
of international cooperation in migration regulation.
Poverty and Immigration Case Studies on Assamijtsrd
Poverty is being witnessed as one of the devastated sins for the people. Immigration has been appeared as one of the major issues of the millennium in Assam politics. Both the term ‘poverty’ and ‘immigration’ are correlated as most of the poverty ridden people migrated illegally for their livelihood. Data shows that maximum number of poorer families have become victimized of natural catastrophic as well as state’s unwillingness to accommodate their demands. In a nutshell, they don’t have any voice in the political landscape. Therefore, present study is an attempt to analyze the correlation between these two. For this purpose, we would be taking the help of some of the landmark cases that signify its relationship. The present work is also an attempt to analyze the impact of National Registrar of Citizens and its effect on marginalized sections of the society.

Today we have some 5.9 million Jewish settlers or Jewish Israelis who came from over 100 countries and who live in Palestine-Israel. We also have over some 11.6 million Muslim and Christian Palestinians who are the native of Palestine and who live inside and outside Palestine-Israel (many of them living in 59 UN registered Palestinian refugee camps in Palestine-Israel, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon for more than six decades). The Palestinian refugees continue to struggle to return to the homes from which they were expelled or fled in 1948 and thereafter. Israel continues to deny the Palestinian refugees the right to return to their country because they are not Jewish. This is the core of the Palestine-Israel conflict.

Холокост, демографическая катастрофа еврейского народа 14 09-2016Yakov Faitelson
С 1900 и по 1939 год еврейское население мира выросло на 56,6%.
После Холокоста оно сократилось на 31% по сравнению с 1939 г.
При условии, что сохранится существующий за последние 70 лет естественный прирост евреев мира, потребуется почти 100 лет чтобы число евреев смогло вернутся к их численности в 1939 году.
К 2026 году доля евреев, проживающих в Израиле,
впервые за последние 2000 лет, превзойдет долю евреев Диаспоры.
התופעה של קוהביטציה קיימת גם במדינת ישראל, אך ממדיה נמוכים עדיין בהרבה מזאת הקיימת במדינות האחרות בעולם.
הפריון הכולל אצל היהודים במדינת ישראל הוא הגבוה ביותר מבין המדינות החברות בארגון ה- OECD וגם מרוב המדינות העולם, פרט מאותן המדינות שאינן מפותחות מספיק או נכשלות.
ככל שעולה צפיפות האוכלוסין, כך יורד גודל הפריון הכולל ויחד אתו יורד מספר הנפשות המרכיבות את המשפחה, גודל מספרן של המשפחות החד-הוריות ומספר של המשפחות בהן הילדים מתגוררים עם ההורים שאינם נשואים.
שיפור רמת החיים על ידי מעבר האוכלוסייה לחיים באזורים הצפופים פחות, בהן נשמרת איכות חיים גבוהה, קיימים ומפותחים שירותים לטיפול בילדים ברמה טובה וקיימים מגורים נוחים ומרווחים, כל אלה מעודדים שמירה על פריון גבוה אצל האוכלוסייה ויחד עם זה עולה מספר הנפשות המרכיבות את המשפחה.
ביטול שירות החובה לבנות עשוי לסייע בהקמת משפחות בגיל צעיר יותר, להולדת ילדים בריאים יותר וליצירת תנאים כלכליים נוחים יותר ומוקדם יותר למשפחות הצעירות.
האוכלוסייה היהודית בארץ ישראל ויהודי העולם 23 12-2015Yakov Faitelson
האוכלוסייה היהודית בעולם גדלה מ-10,600,000 נפש בשנת 1900 עד ל-16,600,000 נפש בשנת 1939. בו זמנית, גדלה האוכלוסייה היהודית בארץ ישראל מכ-50,000 נפש לכדי 449,000 נפש, בהתאמה.
בשנת 1948 האוכלוסייה היהודית בעולם מנתה 11,500,000 נפש, כאשר האוכלוסייה היהודית בארץ ישראל מנתה 650,000 נפש. מכאן משתמע כי האוכלוסייה היהודית בגלות מנתה 10,850,000 נפש.
עד שנת 2015 גדלה האוכלוסייה היהודית בעולם לכדי 14,420,650 נפש, מתוכם 8,083,000 נפש בגלות ו-6,337,650 נפש בארץ ישראל. מכך משתמע כי האוכלוסייה היהודית בגלות פחתה ב-25.5% בהשוואה לגודלה בשנת 1948 כאשר, בו-זמנית, האוכלוסייה היהודית בארץ ישראל גדלה כמעט פי 10.
בין השנים 1990-2015 האוכלוסייה היהודית בגלות פחתה ב-9.7% ובו-זמנית גדלה האוכלוסייה היהודית בארץ ישראל ב-60.6%. ב-5 השנים האחרונות גדלה האוכלוסייה היהודית בארץ ישראל ב-9.2% ובו-זמנית פחתה האוכלוסייה היהודית בגלות ב-0.5%.
המשך המגמה הזאת בשנים הבאות עשויה להביא את גודל של האוכלוסייה היהודית בארץ ישראל בשנת 2025 לכדי 7,650,152 נפש כאשר בארצות הגלות יהיו כ-7,769,539 נפש.
מכאן משתמע כי שתי האוכלוסיות הללו עשויות להגיע לשוויון לקראת שנת 2026. לקראת שנת 2040 שיעור האוכלוסייה היהודית בארץ ישראל עשויה להגיע לכדי 59.4% מכלל האוכלוסייה היהודית בעולם.

Demographic projections for Land of Israel (1898 2050)-25_02_2014 rusYakov Faitelson
Большинство долговременных прогнозов по отношению к населению Страны Израиля оказались не состоятельными. Причиной тому является оперирование кратковременной статистикой, не принимая во внимание долговременные факторы: экологические, политические, экономические и социальные процессы в стране и за ее пределами, их влияние на демографию еврейского и арабского населения.
Осуществление пессимистического прогноза о превращении Израиля в нееврейское государство отодвигается уже в девятый раз: с 1960 на 1968 год, затем на 1985 год, потом на 1990 год, на 2000, 2010,
2012, 2016, а сейчас уже на 2020 год.
Начиная с 1965 года, в Стране Израиля удерживается еврейское большинство в 59-60%. Это большинство сохранится и дальше, учитывая данные о темпах снижения естественного прироста арабского населения, а также нарастающую арабскую эмиграцию из Иудеи, Самарии и Газы.
Правильная Демографическая политика, направленная на продолжение алии и усиление эмиграционных тенденций среди арабского населения может привести к увеличению доли евреев среди всего населения
страны к середине ХХI столетия.

on the subject of the Region’s demography
By Yakov Faitelson

2. Emigration from Judea, Samaria and Gaza
is not a new phenomenon.
It has existed continuously for at least 65 years.
Nor will the Arab population within Palestine be able to grow indefinitely. Some
outmigration, even in the absence of forced expulsion, is inevitable. The tiny Gaza Strip is
now one of the most densely settled areas of the world, and there is a limit to its ability to
contain more people, even at the appalling levels of subsistence that now prevail.
“The Demographic War For Palestine”, by Janet Abu-Lughod
The Link, Vol. 19, No. 5, December 1986
One of the main reasons for erroneous estimates of the size of the Arab population in
Judea, Samaria and Gaza is a constant and consistent ignoring the data of the migration
balance .
This, combined with non-credible reports on the size of births and mortality, and as a result,
a misconception about the natural increase, it brings to distortions in assessing the real
annual growth rate of the Arab population in Judea, Samaria and Gaza.
This inevitably leads to errors in assessing the demographic trends in the population in the
long term and the direction and intensity of future developments in this area.
3. “Palestinians have poured out of the West Bank for the last 30 years, under Jordanian as
well as Israeli rule, according to Prof. Uziel Schmelz, a senior official at the Israeli Bureau of
Statistics. From 1952 to 1961, the West Bank population grew annually at a rate of only
0 .07 percent a year, because 150,000 residents emigrated over that period”.
"Perilous numbers game on the West Bank”, By Trudy Rubin, Special correspondent of
The Christian Science Monitor August 16, 1983 http://www.csmonitor.com/1983/0816/081638.html
“…from the early 1950s until the eve of Israeli occupation, the average annual net migration
rate was around 20 per 1,000, which almost off-set the rate of natural increase”.

Prof. Justin McCarthy estimates that from 1950 to 1960 the number of emigrants from the West Bank
reached 200 thousand. "Most migrants from the West Bank went to the East Bank. Improving
economic conditions on the East Bank and Jordanian citizenship made the East Bank an
attractive target area for the migration of unskilled labor. …Palestinian skilled labor went all
over the Arab world and on to Europe and the Americas, taking advantage of opportunities
that were unavailable to the unskilled”.

"I think the reason is political. Emigration is a political issue. In the confrontation between the
Palestinians and the Jews, emigration could be construed by some as a form of Palestinian
concession, or as a sign of Palestinian weakness.“

5. “The weapon par excellence adopted by the Jewish community to enhance its claim to
Palestine was migration; the weapon of the Palestinian Arab population to maintain its
legitimate claim to the country has been natural increase”.
“The Demographic War For Palestine”, by Janet Abu-Lughod, 1986
“Despite an Arab birthrate far higher than that of Israeli Jews, the ratio of Jews to non-Jews
in Eretz (greater) Israel remained almost stable from 1970 to 1981: 65 percent Jews to 35
(inching toward 36*) percent non-Jews. The reason: heavy Palestinian emigration”.
*- Change in the rate was due to rapid Natural increase for the non-Jewish citizens of Israel.
"Perilous numbers game on the West Bank”
By Trudy Rubin, Special correspondent of The Christian Science Monitor August 16, 1983
"... We find that the Jews were able to save the higher share of Israeli population through
migration to Israel, while , simultaneously, the natural growth rates of the Palestinians had
diminished, the displacement rates (emigration abroad) (were) higher ... and the
contraceptive programs helped to reduce the fertility rates ... and therefore the demographic
factor will play a limited and even marginal role in the conflict... “

6. “With regard to total fertility rate (TFR), overall, UNRWA figures show that Palestinian
refugees’ TFR decreased and it is nearly similar to population in the host countries, while the
age group (0-4) is smaller than the age group of (5-9) which indicates less birth rate in the
last five years (See Table 3)”.

Studies Program. The American University in Cairo, Egypt. October 23-25, 2007
In fact, the age group (9-5) is smaller than the age group (14-10), therefore, it is indicating
that the decline in the birth rate has been decreasing for last 10 years, i.e. starting from 1996.
7. “Data from questionnaires carried out by the Institute of Development Studies in Birzeit
university during February 2007, indicates… that youth are the category most
desirable for migration, since the percentage of individuals aged between 18-29 years who
prefer migration has reached 43.8%, while it has reached 29.5% for the category aged
between 30-49 years (See Table 6)… Data also shows that singles were the category most
desirable for emigration, about 54.1% of the total persons who desire to emigrate”.

“It is noticed that populations in rural areas are more desirable to emigrate than
populations in urban and camp areas, as the percentages were 35.1% for villagers, 31.1%
for urban, and 32.2% for camp residents”.
8. “Actually, Israeli authority indicates that migration is negative while the PCBS estimates no
migration flow from/into the oPt since 2000 (zero migration).
Nevertheless, between July 2006 and June 2007, the number of arrivals and departures
Palestinians to/out of the Gaza Strip indicates that the difference is approximately 10,000
departures.
This matches the expectations of a public poll conducted by Beirzeit Development Program in
February 2007, which revealed that about 31% of the respondents expressed their desire to
migrate if they had the opportunity, which reflects an increased desire of emigration”.

“Birzeit University pollster Nader Said, who has monitored emigration attitudes for 12 years,
says… that the percentage (of Palestinians willing to relocate) surges to 44 percent among
Palestinians in their 20s and 30s. Among young men, it surges beyond 50 percent”.

in a constant flow of emigration from the Palestinian occupied territory”.

In the Religious ruling “Fatwa” (May 14, 2007), entitled "No permit for emigration from
Palestine", signed by the Mufti of Jerusalem and Palestine region, Sheikh Muhammad Amin
Hussein, it was written as follows:
“There are many talks about emigration in our country of Palestine at these days, especially
among the young people, due to the security situation and severe economic consequences,
who express their desire to find a work in other countries. It is reflected in pursuing the gates
of the embassies and missions of Western countries and asking to obtain a visa to these
countries and to settle permanently there . .. "
On July 2, 2007, in an interview with "Asharq Al-Awsat“, the Arabic international newspaper
headquartered in London, Prime Minister of the Palestinian Emergency Government, Salam
Fayyad, said as follows:
"How can I deal with the problem of 40 to 50 thousand Palestinians who emigrated, and
many more who are not emigrated yet, just because they can not do it. We are losing about
it .... "
10. "The net balance of arrivals and departures for the West Bank in the period 1967-present is
always negative: on average about 10,000 annually, except in specific years, such as the
years of the Gulf Wars when Palestinians were forced to return home and the period after
the start of the peace process and the arrival of Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO)
leaders and their families...
... the main reason for migration by Palestinians relates to the economic factors resulting
from the political instability and the infighting between the Palestinian parties".
“The available data on migration revealed that the Palestinian Territory was third among
sending countries in the Middle East and North Africa, after Jordan and Iran (World Bank,
2008). Recently, it has been noted that the arrivals-departures balance is negative; in the
first 8 months of 2009, the only Jordanian-Palestinian crossing border point the Karama
bridge registered about minus 44 thousand, while it was about minus 63 thousand during
the same period in 2008 (PSD, 2009)”.

15. Until the mid-70s of the 20th century the Data of the US CBS was matching
the Data of the ICBS, including Arab residents of East Jerusalem.
By 1993, the figures of ICBS for Arab population of Judea and Samaria,
including East Jerusalem and Arab emigrants from Judea and Samaria, were
higher than those of US CBS.
In 1994, the figures of US CBS and ICBS (including East Jerusalem residents
and Arab emigrants) were alike.
Since 1997, the US CBS assessments of total population of Judea and
Samaria, Arabs and Jews, are presenting a line, following a linear regression
model. Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS) refers to the Arab
population only, but including East Jerusalem residents.
In 2001 the PCBS had published the population forecast by the year 2024
which looks like a linear regression line. According to this forecast, the
population of Judea and Samaria should be 3,385,187 people in 2013, about
25% more than the latest estimate of the PCBS for this year.
One can see that PCBS population estimate figures for Judea and Samaria for
years from 2002 to 2007 were zigzagging, but from here on they are
compatible with figures of US CBS.
16. As Arab demographers noted by themselves, the Arab migration balance in Judea and
Samaria was consistently negative throughout the period, starting from the 50s of the 20th
century and up to the end of it, except for a few years.
The Arab migration balance in Judea and Samaria remained to be negative in the 21st century
too, while its dimensions had even increased. In recent years, the phenomenon that had
existed in the 50s of last century had had repeated once again, when the negative migration
balance offsets the Natural Increase of the Arab population almost completely.
Simultaneously, due to the positive progress in the level of education, especially among the
Arab women, as also the growing urbanization process, the Natural Increase of all Arabs in the
Land of Israel is rapidly declining. For the Arabs of Judea and Samaria it is dropping even more
rapidly than for the Arabs, citizens of Israel. One of the main reasons for this development is
due to the emigration of young people and thereby due to reducing the volume of the fertile
Arab population in Judea and Samaria.
According to the CIA FACTBOOK publications, the Total Fertility Rate (TFR) of the Arabs of
Judea and Samaria fell down to 2.83 child per woman in 2014, compared with 5.70 child per
woman in 1994. The TFR of Arabs had reduced more than by 50% in less than one generation.
For comparison, the TFR of Jews in Israel in 2013 was 3.1 and of the Jewish settlers in Judea
and Samaria it is even 5.05 child per woman. Annual growth of the Jewish population of
Judea and Samaria communities is the highest of all geographical areas from the
Mediterranean sea to the Jordan River and stood on the average of 5% annually.
17. Conclusions
Analysis of demographic multi-annual trends existing in Judea and Samaria indicates the stability of the
Arab population size in the recent years, around 1.5 million people.
If the population of East Jerusalem Arab residents would be also included, it would reach about 1.8
million people. The Jewish population, including the Jewish settlements in Judea, Samaria and the
residents of East Jerusalem ,will approach 600 thousand people in 2014 , or approximately 25% of the
total population.
If we’ll ignore the artificial division of Jerusalem to the Eastern and Western parts of the city and treat all
Jerusalem residents as part of the population of Judea and Samaria, then the Jewish population is
approximately 880 thousand people, or a third of the Total population of this geographic area.
Expanding the boundaries of Jerusalem area up to the size similar to the municipal area of the capital of
Jordan, Amman, which is 1,680 square kilometers, would bring the total Jewish population up to about 1
million people, or 36% of the Total population in the geographical area of Judea and Samaria.
Analysis of potential development in this direction is used as the basis for preparing the Master Plan for
Jerusalem carried out by the team of "Jerusalem 2050", headed by architect Shlomo Gertner, and
founded by Mr. Kevin Bermeister.
Further development of the population size in Judea and Samaria, Jews and Arabs alike, depends not
only on the natural demographic trends in this area ongoing for the last 65 years, but also on properly
planned and initiated political, economical and security actions.
עד מחצית שנות ה-70 של המאה ה-20 נתוני הלמ"ס ארה"ב תואמים נתוני הלמ"ס הישראלי הכוללים תושבי מזרח ירושלים הערבים.
עד שנת 1993 נתוני הלמ"ס הישראלי הכוללים תושבי מזרח ירושלים והמהגרים הערבים גבוהים מאלו של הלמ"ס ארה"ב. בשנת 1994נתוני הלמ"ס ארה"ב ושל הלמ"ס הישראלי הכוללים תושבי מזרח ירושלים והמהגרים זהים. משנת 1997 נתוני הלמ"ס ארה"ב של הערכת גודל כלל אוכלוסיית יהודה והשומרון, הערבית והיהודית, מהווים קו לינארי. נתוני הלמ"ס הפלסטיני (הלמס"פ) מתייחסים לאוכלוסייה הערבית בלבד. גם תחזית של הלמס"פ עד שנת 2024 הינה לינארית. לפי התחזית הזאת עד שנת 2013 האוכלוסייה ביהודה והשומרון הייתה אמורה להגיע לכדי 3,385,187 נפש, בכ-25% יותר מאומדן האחרון של הלמס"פ לשנה זו. ניתן לראות כי נתוני הלמס"פ מזגזגים משנת 2002 עד שנת 2007 ומכאן והלאה הם תואמים נתוני הלמ"ס ארה"ב.
