| | Adalah: Legal Advocacy |
 | | This is the first time that Arab citizens have been permitted by the state to list an unrecognized village as their official address. | | | Adalah countered that, while the state claims that the small towns listed as eligible for the discount are in need of financial assistance, it has failed to provide information detailing their socio-economic situation. | | | In response to Adalah's argument in the petition that ILAâs decision is discriminatory and arbitrary, the AG declared the addition of 14 small Arab towns to the list of towns covered by the ILA's decision. |

| | Russian Foreign Policy - CDI Russia Weekly #241 |
| | Until recently, the list of unrecognized states was limited to Taiwan and North Cyprus. | | | At the same time, a qualitative breakthrough, achieved in Russia's relations with the USA and West-European countries, is increasingly irritating Japan, evoking in it the classical complex of the fear of lagging behind the allies. | | | This is why the task at hand is to convince, and if necessary, force them to drop the claims to the creation of a state of their own and find an acceptable form of association with their "old" states. |

| | Countries in the EU, such as the UK and Ireland, would have to legally recalibrate their trading regimes with Brussels--something that, given the protectionist nature of the EU, they should do anyway. | | | A more united Europe was necessary to "build counterweights" to combat "the risk of hegemony." Any thought that classical balance-of-power thinking was no longer relevant in today's global environment ought to be put to rest by any vague scrutiny of the French government's rationale for a more coherent Europe. | | | Presently, the UK stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the U.S.; Germany's militant pacifists are against any type of military involvement, be it sanctioned by the UN or not; and France holds a wary middle position, stressing that any use of military force must emanate from UN Security Council deliberations. |

| | Europe considers nationalism the main cause of its troubled past: it bloodied the continent until the defeat of Nazism gave way--no doubt under the benign protection of the American umbrella--to a post-nationalist European Union where war is forever banned and peaceful trade and diplomacy have become the sole instruments of power relations in the world. | | | Muslim immigrants have no incentive to develop an allegiance to their home countries in Europe because Europe discourages that behavior and the general social tendency is to denigrate nationalism and patriotism as forms of reactionary and dangerous ideologies. | | | Since 9/11, a string of high-profile incidents in Europe heightened public awareness to the risk that radical Islam poses to the fabric of Europe. |

| | However, both Tompsett and WW-Person list Stephen Count of Champagne, Meaux, and Troyes (Tompsett twice, as son of both Herbert the Elder and Herbert, Count of Meaux, identified as "Herbert the Younger"). | | | The only drawbacks are that (1) Thompsett's lists are, indeed, genealogical, which means it is sometimes hard to find unrelated rulers in a succession, and (2) the entries are very summary, without any explanation of may be happening as, for instance, domains are divided among multiple heirs. | | | This actually led to a conspiracy of military men and attempts at a coup d'état and assassinations against de Gaulle. |
