| Summary/Abstract |
The scholarly discussion of Israel's nuclear programme has reached a
degree of maturity, which allows some basics to become indisputable. As in
any other field of intense political-moral and strategic deliberations, the
role of Israel's nuclear programme, at first its very existence, were matters
of dispute or of different interpretations.1 Thus, this article will start with a
description and analysis of David Ben-Gurion's security policy based upon
his lessons learned from the Holocaust and Israel's War of Independence
combined and the ensuing deviations from it.

| Summary/Abstract |
This paper explores the ways in which the Shahnameh thematizes the poet's fraught relationship with language to not only complicate our overall understanding of the epic poem but also our understanding of the language which makes the poem, and the world outside the poem, intelligible. Through a close reading of some of the prologues and epilogues that frame the Shahnameh’s tales, this essay argues that rather than helping us understand how to interpret the epic's morally ambiguous tales, the frames to Ferdowsi's tales, ironically represent a narrator who is in no position to offer us any help. Of course, the poet does give us clues as to why he and consequently we are “helpless” (bichāreh) when it comes to understanding his tales, which, in its own way, can be considered helpful. What seems to hinder understanding at every turn for the poet is, paradoxically, the very language or speech (sakhon/sokhan) that makes understanding possible in the first place.

In attending the London Olympic Games of 2012, competitors and visitors at each venue were greeted with four flags; from left to right, they were the International Olympic flag—and the International Paralympic flag subsequently—the flags of the United Nations [UN] and the London Olympic Organising Committee [LOCOG], and the British Union Jack.
