Israel: Learning Hebrew
Written byHaitham Sabbah
Jonathan says that like much else in the Middle East, the emergence of Hebrew instruction in East Jerusalem sends mixed messages. On one hand, the ulpanim are a reminder that although Arabic is an official language in Israel, it has de facto secondary status in business and government. He also says that for those who can't wait for the conflict to end and society to change, they may be the best solution.
