THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
A Visual Guide to 1 Samuel | A Tale of Two HeartsSteve Thomason
These slides walk through the story of 1 Samuel. Samuel is the last judge of Israel. The people reject God and want a king. Saul is anointed as the first king, but he is not a good king. David, the shepherd boy is anointed and Saul is envious of him. David shows honor while Saul continues to self destruct.

2. Future Armoured Vehicles Survivability 2018
www.favsurvivability.com
Dear Colleague,
It is with great pleasure that I invite you to join us at Future
Armoured Vehicles Survivability 2018, taking place from the
13th - 15th November, in London.
As the sole conference of its kind exclusively dedicated to this
fundamental component of our core manoeuvre capability,
Future Armoured Vehicles Survivability 2018 will be held with
the aim of developing protective solutions to the array of
contemporary threats posed to mechanised forces.
Future Armoured Vehicles Survivability will do this by providing
a platform for operational users, capability development
and industry to share current requirements and experience
in platform modernisation, enhancement of active/passive
protection, signature management, mobility and vehicle
architecture.
Last year’s event saw over 150 like-minded individuals
convene in London to realise this common goal, with General
Dynamics, Leonardo, Raytheon, IMI Defence, Rafael, Soucy
Defence, Rheinmetall, ARTEC and Pleora being just some of
the technical leaders to lend their support.
This year’s conference agenda has been put together
with equal care, drawing on leading experts’ thoughts
and aspirations, to ensure the very best opportunities to
benchmark and learn from strategy and engineering leaders.
I see this conference as the ideal platform for advancement
in this complex area, and I would hope that we can extend
the debate to explore and push the boundaries. Only through
networking, sharing and learning with our peers can we
develop our approaches to capability development and
delivery.
I urge you to join us in November 2018 to participate
alongside an array of likeminded international experts to
realise this common goal.
Yours Sincerely,

3. FUTURE ARMOURED VEHICLES SURVIVABILITY 2018
PRE-CONFERENCE FOCUS DAY l 13th November 2018
Maximising Development and Integration of Active Protection Systems
9:00 am – 5:00 pm | 13th November 2018 | Copthorne Tara Hotel, London, UK
Chaired by Mr. Tom Newbery, Active Protection Research Technical Authority, Platform Survivability Group, DSTL, UK MoD
An examination of the current operational environment indicates that future manoeuvre forces must be prepared to
fight and win in an increasingly high threat environment.
As seen in ongoing counter-insurgency and hybrid conflicts, threats to the vehicle are increasing in both scope and
size. Traditional lightly armed combatants now have access to an increasing array of anti-armour capabilities, from cost
effective and lethal RPG 29, to the latest generation of anti-tank guided missiles (ATGM), capable of defeating most of
the passive protection available to today’s combat vehicles.
Simultaneously, the threat posed by high intensity conflict and near peer adversaries has never been more credible. With
both the protection and fire power of NATO’s combat vehicles now being challenged and even exceeded in certain areas,
proactive measures must be taken to ensure the highest level of protection possible for combat vehicles and their crews.
Taking place on November 13th and building on the fruitful discussion of active protection systems (APS) at last year’s
Future Armoured Vehicle’s Survivability 2017, SMi presents a focus day exclusively dedicated to this important capability.
Drawing on the experience and recent activities of leading programme managers from the armed forces and national
defence research, the meeting will aim to deliberate national efforts to integrate APS into existing fleets, the architectures
necessary to support integration, efforts to ensure system safety, STANAG 4686 standardisation and much more.
Importantly, the meeting will guarantee the support of technical experts from the leading solution providers, covering the
latest hard/soft kill systems, sensors, data processing, munitions and countermeasures.

SOUCY GROUP founded in 1967 is employing more than 1,500 people through its 11 manufacturing
plants in North America and Asia. SOUCY DEFENSE is a world leader in Composite Rubber Track (CRT)
Technology, which enhances mobility, protection sustainment for Armoured Fighting Vehicles. CRTs
are up to 50% lighter than steel tracks and allow the addition of more armour and protection. CRTs
improve acceleration, top speed and breaking distance and will generate up to 70% less vibration,
thus increasing the life of ammunition and electronics and improving troop’s readiness. CRT other
added-values are up to 10dB noise reduction, which in turn improves communication effectiveness
and allows the vehicle to be stealthier at the lowest tactical level; fuel saving up to 30% because of
the reduction in rolling resistance. CRT are designed and developed to be virtually maintenance free
and to create considerable Operational and Life Cycle Cost savings.
