“…Briefly, in territorially conceiving of the West Bank within the confines of its 1967 borders, the intention here not to concede the point of legal correctness to this particular spatial understanding. To summarize, both Oslo Accords proposed to have the Israeli army withdraw from the West Bank by temporarily segmenting the 1967-bordered territory into three areas; A, B, and C. Under Oslo, the entire territory of the West Bank would, in five years, return to full Palestinian administration and control (Zeid and Thawaba 2018). Area A, territorially, was/is demarcated by areas of high Palestinian population density, and under Oslo was always intended to remain under Palestinian control.…”

This article examines the phenomenon of Zionist Philanthropy and the synchronicity of tax-deductible gift-giving with Palestinian erasure. Raising questions concerning regulator complicity in Canada, the case study of the Mizrachi Organization of Canada, a popular Zionist charitable organization which arguably mislabels its charitable activities, is investigated. At stake are questions surrounding the arbitrary enforcement of Canadian tax law, international law, and where the Canadian state sits in regard to conducting charitable activity in the Occupied Territories.

In this article, we draw attention to trends in land transformation in the West Bank since the Second Intifada, after which a surge of investment from Gulf countries entered Palestine, almost exclusively in the West Bank. The occupied Palestinian territories have attracted a great deal of attention from media and academics, yet the vast majority of scholarship has focused on the conflict and the variety of social, economic, and political repercussions of the on-going Israeli occupation. While the occupation has undeniably serious impacts on every aspect of life for Palestinians, the near-exclusive focus on the conflict means that significant new trends that have emerged over the past decade in Palestine, such as urban mega-developments and emerging market-based urbanisation processes, have been largely overlooked. This article provides a preliminary overview of urban changes underway in the West Bank, with a particular focus on urban megadevelopments and major projects in Area A, the only territory controlled exclusively by the Palestinian Authority. We outline three directions for future research: the assemblage of local and international "neglected city-builders" shaping current urbanization processes in Palestine; the domestic and international ideas, policies, and norms circulating in the West Bank; and the social, spatial, economic, and other impacts of these new urban developments.
