The Quota Has Opened the Door.. and the Real Authority is Behind Closed Doors
Formal Management of the Scene
When I reflect on the presence of Palestinian women in municipal elections, I always find myself facing a complex equation. On the one hand, there is a legal system that shows formal support for the presence of women through quotas; on the other hand, there is a social...
An Insight into Mental Health Culture in Our Society
As usual, daily before crossing the Qalandiya barrier on my way back home, I look around hoping to find elderly people who are struggling to pass the checkpoint with less hardship and humiliation. Most of the time, I find an opportunity to gain God's pleasure. Yesterday, I had two companions, one an...
Why does Israel fail to impose leadership on the Palestinians?
Since the early days of the genocide against Gaza, it has been clear that producing and engineering chaos is a primary objective of the Israeli machine. For Israel, chaos is not a side effect, but a political and security tool used to reshape the Palestinian environment and dismantle its community s...
It is… A Team That Fights
The Palestinian national team is no longer just a squad participating in a regional championship or seeking to represent its country with honor; it has become a symbol of the spirit of a nation standing against all odds. At the 2025 Arab Cup, the "Feda'i" appeared in an unprecedented manner, display...
From Europe to the West Bank.. A Citizen's Message Demanding Rights and Justice
In Palestine, December 3rd passes like a brief window that opens for a single day. Slogans rise, speeches are delivered, and platforms are crowded with words… then everything closes, and we — the disabled — return to a reality that does not change much after the lights go out....
My Friend ... and Ibn Rushd in Hebron
My returning friend surprised me while I was ordering a drink, as is my weekend evening habit, by loudly requesting my glass of tea from the waiter, and began our conversation with a direct question: "Do you know the most famous square in the city of Hebron?" I replied with what I know about Hebron,...
Independent Members of Boards of Directors: An Added Value
Governance in institutions and companies is fundamentally essential to ensure fairness, equality, transparency, and accountability. It is not merely about written systems and regulations; rather, it is an institutional culture for which the board of directors, as the highest supervisory and regulato...
Starvation, Torture, and Killing of Prisoners: A Policy and One of the Goals of the Genoci...
Since the early days of the war on the Gaza Strip, it has become clear that Israel does not view the starvation and torture of Palestinians in prisons as mere byproducts of battlefield chaos or spatial repercussions of what it calls "security necessities"; rather, it considers them an organic part o...
Pastoral Settlement in the West Bank: The Most Dangerous Face of Occupation and the Scenar...
While the spotlight is focused on the major settlements, a more cunning and politically cost-effective settlement project is advancing on the ground: pastoral settlement. This represents the most aggressive face of contemporary settler colonialism, aiming not just to house settlers but to strangle t...
Not an Effort but a Sin Worth Accountability
The mistakes of Hamas are not misguided efforts that came in a national and Islamic context, and therefore, we cannot find an excuse for them or apply to them the hadith attributed to the Prophet Muhammad: "When a ruler rules and strives, if he is correct, he has two rewards, and if he errs, he has...
The Land: The Core of the Struggle for an Agricultural Policy that Protects Palestinian Ex...
The land occupies a central position in the struggle against the occupation, as it forms a fundamental axis for all policies related to settlement, displacement, and control over resources. In this context, agriculture does not merely appear as an economic activity; it transforms into a first line o...
Goodbye 2025: What Have Palestinians Learned from an Unprecedented Year?
As 2025 comes to a close, Palestinians stand on the threshold of a new year, burdened with experiences heavier than memory, and deeper than can be summarized by news headlines. 2025 was not an ordinary year; it was a year where pain intertwined with resilience, loss with hope, and ambiguity with wil...
