Abstract:
Rational choice approaches to reducing terrorist violence would suggest raising the costs of terrorism through punishment, thereby reducing the overall expected utility of terrorism. In this article, we argue that states should also consider raising the expected utility of abstaining from terrorism through rewards. We test effects of repressive (or punishing) and conciliatory (or rewarding) actions on terrorist behavior using the newly developed GATE-Israel dataset, which identifies events by Israeli state actors toward Palestinian targets on a full range of counterterrorism tactics and policies from 1987 to 2004. Results show that repressive actions are either unrelated to terror or related to subsequent increases in terror, and conciliatory actions are generally related to decreases in terror, depending on the tactical period. Findings also reveal the importance of understanding the role of terrorists’ constituencies for reducing violence.

Abstract:
Changes in Israeli regional politics were triggered by the current political situation in the Middle East, characterized by a high degree of intensity and unpredictability. The region experiences a complex process of serious political changes making Israel adjust its regional policy to the new challenges. The article focuses upon the new elements of Israelis strategy on key regional issues: the settlement of Palestinian-Israeli conflict; new approaches to countering Iranian nuclear program; the Syrian civil war and escalation of terrorism activities. The aim of the article is to describe and analyze new trends in Israeli regional strategy over the past 10 years identifying its external and internal factors. The main external factor is a close partnership of Israel with US, which plays a key role in supporting Israel’s regional and international status. The changes taking place inside the region could be considered as internal factors. They include Arab Spring; prospects for settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict; the growth of the Islamic radicalism and terrorism, new terrorist groups such as ISIS, and the civil war in Syria.The main changes of Israeli regional policy include toughening approaches to resolving the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, in particular, de facto abandonment of the «two states for two peoples» formula. Equally important are events that, although not directly related to Israel, are changing its regional agenda. Assessment of Iran’s nuclear program as an existential threat explains Israel’s negative attitude to the international agreement with Iran in 2015 during the presidency of B. Obama (JCPOA). The subsequent withdrawal of the Trump administration from this agreement strengthened Israel’s anti-Iranian position. This also allowed Israel to develop cooperative ties with the so-called pro-Western states of the region, such as Saudi Arabia and some Persian Gulf countries in pursuit of containing the Iranian nuclear threat and its growing regional influence. Saudi Arabia and the Gulf countries became real partners of Israel in confronting Iran. This gives the Israeli state the opportunity to at last enter the regional system and free itself from the traditional image of rogue state among the Muslim countries in the Middle East.

Abstract:
The State of Israel has been subjected to numerous terrorist attacks since its establishment in 1948. The issue of rehabilitation, treatment, and compensation of victims of terrorism has been extensively regulated by its law. Special state funds for compensation of victims of terrorism have been established. This brief will describe the management and distribution of state funds to such victims. In addition, the right of victims to collect damages from those responsible for terrorist attacks will be analyzed. Specifically, this brief will explore whether victims of terrorism in Israel, as a precondition for filing for state compensation, are required to waive their rights to sue those responsible for the attack, and whether the State is entitled to reimbursement for money paid to victims. In addition, the right of Israeli victims of terrorism to sue knowing or unknowing tortfeasors and to sue terrorist states or quasi states will be analyzed. Special attention will be made to the application of the doctrine of foreign sovereign immunity to states and bodies responsible for terrorist actions.

Abstract:
Since the beginning of the second intifada in the fall of 2000, Israel has pursued a policy in which alleged Palestinian terrorists have been hunted down and killed by government order. The policy is not one of assassination and is consistent with international law because Israel is engaged in armed conflict with terrorists, those targeted are usually killed by conventional military means, not through deception, and the targets of the attacks are not civilians but combatants or are part of a military chain of command. Targeted killing has also been affirmed by Israel's High Court.Although targeted killing has been pursued by Israel throughout its history, the scale of the present effort and the use of sophisticated military assets such as helicopter gunships and jet fighters set it apart from earlier practices. The effectiveness of the policy is called into doubt because it has not prevented–and may have contributed to–record numbers of Israeli civilians being killed. The policy has also resulted in informers being revealed, intelligence resources diverted, potential negotiating partners eliminated. It has also produced murderous retaliation and international condemnation of Israel. Benefits of the policy include impeding the effectiveness of terrorist operations, keeping terrorists on the run, and deterring some attacks. In addition, it affords the Israeli public a sense of revenge and retribution.Because it targets the actual perpetrators of terrorism, targeted killing provides a proportionate and discriminate response to the threat Israel faces. Improving the policy will require better civilian oversight, greater care to eliminate harm to innocent bystanders, and refraining from killing political leaders. Despite its many shortcomings, Israel is justified in pursuing this policy so long as it faces a terrorist threat that the Palestinian Authority will not or cannot control.

Abstract:
While the relation between terrorism and tourism has been an important topic for tourism research, the questions whether terrorism affects tourism immediately and how long after a terrorism event tourism recovers are, as yet, not clearly answered. The aim of this article is to better understand the magnitude and temporal scale of the impact of terrorism on tourism. To this end, a research model differentiating between short-term and long-term effects of terrorism on tourism is developed and analyzed for the destination Israel using data on tourists from Germany. The results show both short-term and long-term impacts with a time lag between the terrorist event and the beginning of tourism decline of 1 or up to 6 months. An economic influence on the development of tourist arrivals was not detected, but seasonality plays an important role in the relationship between terrorism and tourism.

Abstract:
The question of this study has to do with the underlying fantasy behind the Israeli pattern of encounter with Palestinians. In other words, does Israel create that which it claims to fear most, i.e. terrorism? This paper is based on my research in Israel and the United States. It is an attempt to decipher some of the collective unconscious wishes as well as the myth that motivates the Israeli political behavior vis-àvis the Palestinians. To get to this fantasy, I conducted focus groups and interviews out of which I drew the common narratives, and repeated phrases. I also looked at the Israeli political actions as a form of enactment of unconscious wishes.

Artykuł ma na celu przedstawienie założeń Prawa zwalczania terroryzmu uchwalonego w 2016 r. w Izraelu w zakresie definiowania i, zwalczania terroryzmu oraz sankcjonowania przestępstw z nim związanych. Autor ukazuje izraelską percepcję tych zagrożeń uwidaczniającą się w nowym ustawodawstwie. Zostanie ona zestawiona z przepisami obowiązującymi wcześniej, aby pokazać, jak zmieniało się postrzeganie tych zagadnień przez rządzących i jakie zmiany wprowadziło nowe prawo. W tym celu autor zastosuje metodę instytucjonalno-prawną i metodę porównawczą różnicy, a także skorzysta z teorii sekurytyzacji. Przeprowadzona analiza pozwoli mu na stwierdzenie, że z perspektywy rządzących terroryzm jest nadal uważany za główne zagrożenie Państwa Izrael. Prawo z 2016 r. wprowadziło możliwość zastosowania wielu środków nadzwyczajnych w ramach przeciwdziałania temu zjawisku. To pokazuje, że partie, które je uchwaliły, mają jastrzębie spojrzenie na kwestie związane z walką z terroryzmem. Israeli counter-terrorist legislation against the threats of the 21st century The aim of the article is to present objectives of the Israeli Counter-Terrorism Law passed in 2016. The author examines the way of defining and combating terrorism, and the penalty measures related to criminal activity linked with it. Thus, the author shows the Israeli authorities’ perception of threat connected with terrorism. The previous counter-terrorist law is compared with the new one to demonstrate the modification of the vision of security. The article seeks to answer the question what changes and views have been implemented by the new law. To achieve those aims the author used the comparison method and an analysis of the law and the securitization theory. It allowed to state that terrorism is still regarded by Israeli politicians as the main threat for the State of Israel and its citizens. The amended law allowed for the use of many emergency measures. Overall, it exhibits a hawkish stance towards combating terrorism of parties which amended the law.

Abstract:
How do persistent terrorist attacks influence political tolerance, a willingness to extend basic liberties to one's enemies? Studies in the U.S. and elsewhere have produced a number of valuable insights into how citizens respond to singular, massive attacks like 9/11. But they are less useful for evaluating how chronic and persistent terrorist attacks erode support for democratic values over the long haul. Our study focuses on political tolerance levels in Israel across a turbulent 30-year period, from 1980 to 2011, which allows us to distinguish the short-term impact of hundreds of terrorist attacks from the long-term influence of democratic longevity on political tolerance. We find that the corrosive influence of terrorism on political tolerance is much more powerful among Israelis who identify with the Right, who have also become much more sensitive to terrorism over time. We discuss the implications of our findings for other democracies under threat from terrorism.

Abstract:
Majority of world opinion today is critical of Israel’s role in the current standoff with Palestine fueled by the illegitimate occupation of the West Bank, depriving millions of Palestinians of their homeland. Yet, almost all non-Islamic countries maintain diplomatic relations with Israel, recognizing it as a country. The plight of the Palestinians, especially the children uprooted from their homes and forced to lead lives of depravation as refugees as a result of Israeli occupation has become a subject for insightful writings by many writers and critics, including Abulhawa who in Mornings in Jenin, skillfully employs language to showcase not the political tragedy (though it operates as the background) but the personal one. This paper textually analyzes Abulhawa’s Mornings in Jenin to explore the author’s use of the literary metaphor to expose not only the reality in Palestine, but more importantly, the horror of Israeli violence against Palestinians, trauma both physical and psychological. The study further highlights how the author raises a significant question: Who is the real terrorist in Palestine? The findings show that the novel utilizes several literary techniques to bring forth Israeli terrorism and Palestinian agony under Israeli occupation. Via language use, Abulhawa concludes that it’s the Israeli occupation, brutality and aggression that leads to Palestinian resistance/terrorism. Mornings in Jenin, in other words, is an attempt by Susan Abulhawa to justify the means of resistance concluding that Israel is the actual terrorist and not the Palestinians who have a ‘just cause’ to resist Zionist colonization. What is remarkable is her ingenuous use of literary devices to achieve the desired effect on the readers.

Abstract:
This paper is an analysis of the research question “is the Israeli defence policy of deterrence effective in minimizing domestic-terrorism?” Through a two-part examination of deterrence and then reconciliation, it explains that Israel has adopted an anachronistic geo-political view of the issues in West Bank/Gaza that must be updated to one of domestic counter-terrorism. The author argues that a reconciliation process would be a more effective method of countering domestic terrorism in Israel as it, if done correctly, can address the deeply-entrenched grievances felt by the groups involved with the conflict.

Abstract:
This thesis analyzes Israeli counter-terrorism strategy and its effectiveness. Because of ongoing suicide attacks from Palestinian and other terrorist organizations, Israel will continue to have an aggressive counter-terrorism strategy. It will study how the impact of past wars, campaigns, and deadly terrorist attacks influenced the thinking of past and current leaders. By gauging the actions, and sometimes nonactions, of the international community, the Israeli government declined to become paralyzed by U.N. and world-wide condemnation of its aggressive counter-terrorism strategies. The Israelis vehemently believe the security of the nation relies on what the Israeli Defense Force (IDF), the Israeli Security Agency (ISA), and Shin Bet do to counter terrorism, not outside governments. The IDF, ISA, and Shin Bet employ three different measures in an attempt to thwart terrorist attacks both in Israel and the Occupied Territories. Defensive, operative, and punitive measures are used in different phases of terrorist attacks in an attempt to protect the lives of Israeli citizens. Of all the three measures used by the IDF and other security agencies, defensive actions have by far been the most effective to date is included.

Abstract:
Este é um estudo sobre como se dá o processo de institucionalização da Atividade de Inteligência Prisional, ou seja, a incorporação institucional da prática da atividade de inteligência no âmbito prisional (AIP), considerando as variáveis da legitimidade e da efetividade. Com o objetivo de melhor compreender esse processo, a pesquisa verificou o caso específico da institucionalização da inteligência prisional israelense, seu contexto político, administrativo e da inteligência de segurança pública de Israel, bem como buscou determinar indicadores necessários a um processo de institucionalização de inteligência prisional eficiente e legítima. No processo em tela é realizada a contextualização do estudo de inteligência prisional dentro de uma análise mais ampla da área de inteligência, com o exame dos principais pressupostos teóricos a respeito do tema e o exame dos indicadores necessários a um processo de institucionalização da inteligência prisional eficiente e legítima. Para tanto, foi utilizado o método de estudo de caso único com pesquisa qualitativa (relatos dos entrevistados), observação participante (investigação nos estabelecimentos carcerários de Israel) e material teórico coletado em Israel (legislações, reportagens, artigos acadêmicos e pesquisas de opinião). A conclusão a que se chega é a de que a criação da AIP foi um fenômeno causado por atos intencionais, uma resposta às necessidades dos governantes (por meio do puro cálculo estratégico), com o objetivo principal de implementar seu domínio sobre a população carcerária, buscando informações sobre a atuação e articulação dos presos terroristas e resolvendo problemas informacionais relacionados à defesa nacional e da ordem pública. A efetividade foi preliminarmente comprovada pela demonstração, quanto ao seu impacto, de que a AIP tem condições de realizar a identificação e o acompanhamento dos presos e suas respectivas facções, de reduzir o crime organizado dentro e fora dos presídios, de antecipar crises e de neutralizar ameaças; quanto ao processo, possui uma complexidade organizacional bastante satisfatória e alto nível de profissionalização de seus agentes; no tocante à legitimidade, por sua vez, foi identificada estabilidade, bom desempenho institucional, existência de mandatos legais regulando a AIP e mecanismos de controle diversos. Porém, constatou-se problemas em relação à transparência/confiança de sua atuação, pois ela é considerada legítima quando o país se encontra em estado de guerra, de conflitos armados, com homens-bomba, terrorismo latente e ataques internos e externos que ameaçam a segurança nacional. Portanto, ela é justificada de acordo com a gravidade da situação, uma vez que se impõem medidas para neutralizá-la. Em tempos de relativa paz, a legitimidade é bastante contestada. Deduzimos que Israel demonstra uma maior preocupação com a eficácia da AIP do que com sua legitimidade (isto é, menos restrições sobre as fontes e a metodologia da Inteligência) e que há uma relação trade-off entre legitimidade e efetividade: o processo de institucionalização não apresentou equilíbrio entre a legitimidade, que nunca foi constante, e a efetividade, que se manteve como tal. A elaboração da presente tese levou à conclusão de que houve um efetivo processo de institucionalização da atividade de inteligência prisional israelense ao longo da trajetória que compreendeu o período de 2000 a 2010.
This is a study on the process of institutionalization of Prison Intelligence Activity, namely, the institutional embodiment of the practice of intelligence activity within prisons (IAP), considering the variables of legitimacy and effectiveness. In order to better understand this process, we studied the specific case of institutionalization of Israeli prison intelligence, its political and administrative context and the public safety intelligence of Israel, and as well we sought to determine indicators required for a prison intelligence institutionalization process effective and legitimate. It performs the contextualization of prison intelligence study within a broader analysis of the intelligence area, with the examination of the main theoretical assumptions on the subject and the examination of indicators required for a prison intelligence institutionalization process effective and legitimate. To this end, we use the method of single case study with qualitative research (reports of respondents), participant observation (research in correctional facilities of Israel) and theoretical material collected in Israel (legislation, reports, scholarly articles and opinion polls). We concluded that the creation of IAP was a phenomena caused by intentional acts, a response to the needs of rulers (through pure strategic calculation), with the main objective of implement their stranglehold on the prison population, seeking information on the performance and articulation of the arrested terrorists and solving problems related to national defense and public order information. The effectiveness has been preliminarily proven by the demonstration, as to its impact, that the IAP can perform the identification and monitoring of prisoners and their respective factions, reduce organized crime inside and outside prisons, anticipate crises, and neutralize threats. As for the process, it presents a satisfactory organizational complexity and high level of professionalism of its agents. With regard to legitimacy, we identified stability, good institutional performance, existence of legal mandates regulating the IAP and various control mechanisms. However, we found problems in relation to transparency/confidence of its performance, because it is considered legitimate when the country is in state of war, armed conflict, with suicide bombers, latent terrorism e internal and external attacks that threaten national security. Therefore, it is justified according to the gravity of the situation, since it imposes measures to neutralize it. In times of relative peace, legitimacy is quite disputed. We assumed that Israel demonstrates a greater concern with the effectiveness of IAP than with its legitimacy (i.e., fewer restrictions on sources and methodology of intelligence) and that there is a trade-off relationship between legitimacy and effectiveness: the institutionalization process failed to provide balance between legitimacy, which was never constant, and effectiveness, which remained as such. We conclude that there was an effective process of institutionalization of Israeli prisons intelligence activity along the trajectory comprising the years between 2000-2010.

Abstract:
The main purpose of this study was to develop an analytical framework for the study of terrorism, and secondly to apply it on the Israel/Palestine conflict. To achieve the first purpose, I examined the history and background of the conflict. The purpose of the study has been achieved by using a qualitative text analysis. The questions that were requested answers in this study are: - What are the main reasons that might trigger terrorism?- What are the main reasons that might triggered the terrorism in this case? The outcome of this study is that the cause-factors to the terrorism appearance is modernisation and urbanisation, social tolerance of political violence, revolutionary ideologies and beliefs, powerless states and state response, the lack of political participation and minorities and terror-leader dissatisfaction. I developed the theory that I used and added other factors like occupation, strive for independence and self-sufficiency, and other like the diplomatic impasse, provocative event and religion that have characterised the conflict from the beginning.

Abstract:
Existing scholarship suggests terrorism is an ineffective method of political contestation; groups rarely achieve their political objectives and are often disrupted by the security services. These findings invite us to look again at the dominant rational choice paradigm, which suggests that terrorism is selected as the best strategy to achieve predetermined goals. Unpicking the assumptions underpinning this model using historical case studies, comparative analysis and typology development, this thesis broadens our interpretation of what those who use terrorism seek to achieve. It does so via a tripartite framework. First, employing a new reading of American pragmatist thought, interpreting militant group goals as culturally and socially mediated problems opens up a new vista of outcomes, in particular examining the way terrorism seeks to change relations between people. Second, using Social Movement Theory as its organising framework, an empirically derived typology of militant groups sets out the background political conditions and organisational characteristics of 28 dormant groups. Using existing models of interpreting outcomes to assess these historical cases demonstrates the unmet challenges of providing robust explanations for why terrorism ends and what it achieves. Third, the thesis explores the promise of a mechanism and process-led approach to explaining outcomes. It does so through in-depth examination of two historical case studies: Kach and the Aden-Abyan Islamic Army. Despite being classified as failures, using largely neglected primary sources, the case studies reveal a range of fascinating and important outcomes that still resonate in Israel and Yemen today. Most of these methodological and conceptual tools are being applied to the question of terrorism's outcomes for only the first or second time. In doing so, this thesis offers greater depth than existing scholarship on how terrorism ends, by looking beyond measures such as success and failure in interpreting outcomes, whilst affording greater breadth through its ability to make comparative assessments at the level of mechanisms and processes. The result is a more detailed and robust set of explanations as to how terrorism ends and what it achieves, illustrated through detailed historical case studies of two interesting, yet often neglected, groups.

Abstract:
From 2000 to 2013, Israel had the second highest number of deaths from suicide attacks and was on the list of countries that may experience increases in terrorism due to ongoing conflicts. Suicide bombings present highly complex situations for counterterrorism and counterinsurgency professionals. Using Freeman, Tucker, and Merton's framework of 9 preattack phases as the primary theoretical constuct, the purpose of this multiple case study was to explore specific patterns that consistently emerged in the adversary planning process for 6 successful or failed suicide bombing cases in Israel. Secondary, archival data were acquired through a data use agreement with a private security organization in Israel and a maximum variation sampling procedure was used to identify cases. These data were subjected to Straus and Corbin's open and axial coding procedures. Coded data were analyzed using Merriam's cross case analysis procedure. Findings indicated that although the nine preattack phases emerged in both the successful and unsuccessful attacks, they were more consistently present in the successful bombing cases. For the successful attacks, general planning, financing, and operational preparation received the most occurrences. The implications for positive social change are directed at counterterrorist decision makers and operators as focusing on the early planning phases of a terrorist attack will help them to better identify essential opportunities to prevent suicide attacks from occurring.
