Webconférence : les Israéliens et la Nakba

Le terme Nakba, ou « catastrophe » en arabe, fait référence à l’expulsion de près de deux tiers de la population palestinienne par Israël en 1948, et la destruction de leurs villages. Eitan Bronstein, figure de la gauche antisioniste israélienne, sera à nos côtés pour comprendre comment les Israélien.ne.s voient la Nakba, entre déni radical et une certaine reconnaissance.

Webconférence - Loi sur l'État-Nation du peuple juif

Webconférence - Loi sur l'État-Nation du peuple juif

L’adoption de cette loi fondamentale par la Knesset le 19 juillet 2018 fait d’Israël non plus l’État de tous ses citoyens mais « l’État nation du peuple juif ». Cette loi ne reconnaît le droit à l’auto- détermination qu’au seul « peuple juif » ; elle fait des 1,5 millions de Palestiniens d’Israël des citoyens de seconde zone ; elle remet en cause le caractère démocratique de l’État d’Israël. De plus, elle fait de la colonisation une valeur nationale.
