Arguing that the combined donor-PA approach poses major obstacles to freedom and rights, Bahour concluded: &ldquo;It&rsquo;s time for a new economic model, one built on economic justice, social welfare, solidarity, and sustainability.&rdquo; What would such an economic model look like and how can Palestinians living under occupation move from today&rsquo;s grim reality to an economy that sustains the quest for self- determination? Al-Shabaka policy advisors Alaa Tartir and Samer Abdelnour join Bahour to debate these questions and explore alternatives.&#160; <\/span><\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\">  <\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/DefeatingDependency\"> <font face=\"Arial\" color=\"#0000ff\" size=\"2\"> <span style=\" font-size:10pt\"> <u>http:\/\/bit.ly\/DefeatingDependency<\/u> <\/span> <\/font> <\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\">  <\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\">  <\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\">  <\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\"> <span style=\" font-size:10pt\"> &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\">  <\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\"> <span style=\" font-size:10pt\"> ePalestine Blog:<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.epalestine.com\"> <font face=\"Arial\" color=\"#0000ff\" size=\"2\"> <span style=\" font-size:10pt\"> <u>http:\/\/www.epalestine.com<\/u> <\/span> <\/font> <\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\">  <\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\"> <span style=\" font-size:10pt\"> &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\">  <\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\"> <span style=\" font-size:10pt\"> Everything about this list:<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lists.riseup.net\/www\/info\/epalestine\"> <font face=\"Arial\" color=\"#0000ff\" size=\"2\"> <span style=\" font-size:10pt\"> <u>http:\/\/lists.riseup.net\/www\/info\/epalestine<\/u> <\/span> <\/font> <\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\">  <\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\"> <span style=\" font-size:10pt\"> To unsubscribe, send mail to:<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\"> <span style=\" font-size:10pt\"> epalestine-unsubscribe@lists.riseup.net<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\">  <\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\"> <span style=\" font-size:10pt\"> To subscribe, send mail to:<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\"> <span style=\" font-size:10pt\"> epalestine-subscribe@lists.riseup.net<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Al-Shabaka Policy Brief&#160;
