Showing results for "A-D" in Middle East

Le 14 mai 1948, l'État d'Israël est proclamé. S'intéressant aux origines de cette naissance, Michel Abitbol décrypte l'arrière-plan historique de la déclaration Balfour de 1917 et la résolution de l'ONU du 29 novembre 1947 (préconisant le partage de la Palestine entre un État juif et un État arabe). L'auteur évoque ensuite les sources du conflit entre les deux peuples, et suit pas à pas l'émergence d'une « nation » israélienne et d'une culture hébraïque moderne nées du brassage des vagues successives d'immigrants.

Nephi puts us on notice in his very first sentence that The Book of Mormon was written by temple worshippers and for temple worshippers. He and the other prophets of The Book of Mormon, who called themselves the visionary men and the peaceable followers of Christ, knew and practiced a mystery, an ordinance by which they ascended through the temple and entered into the presence of God. This ordinance was embodied in a dramatic representation of the expulsion of Adam and Eve from Eden and their return to it, in which initiates played the roles of Adam and Eve or their descendants.

This book charts the remarkable journey of Jason D. Greenblatt, who spent nearly two decades in various senior positions at the Trump Organization—including as an Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer—and his subsequent appointment by President Trump as an Assistant to the President and Special Representative for International Negotiations.

The most eye-opening, and terrifying, story in Chip Reid's career as a journalist was the six weeks he spent with 3d Battalion, 5th Marines, during the invasion of Iraq in 2003, as a correspondent for NBC News. Traveling shoulder-to-shoulder with the young Marines, he had unparalleled access, witnessing them in combat, and interviewing as many as he could persuade his bosses to put on air, allowing them to tell their war stories in their own words.

L’opportunité de revenir sur les tragiques et cruels évènements qui ont ébranlé Israël et ses valeurs fondamentales. Il s’agit de plonger dans les racines de ces évènements, ainsi que dans la vie quotidienne mais aussi dans l’histoire politico-militaire du peuple Israéliens depuis 75 ans. La nouvelle guerre d’Israël est un plaidoyer pour un Tsahal, lui aussi paradoxal, armée composée de soldats et d’officiers brillants et patriotiques, mais dirigée par des hommes et des généraux davantage préoccupés par leur propre avenir politique, ce qui fait de Tsahal un état dans l’état depuis toujours.
