2009 Arab Capital of Culture
Al-Quds Arab Capital of Culture ((アラビア語:القدس عاصمة الثقافة العربية)) was the name given to Arab Capital of Culture programme in 2009. The programme, organised by UNESCO and the Arab League, is designed to promote Arab culture and encourage cooperation in the Arab world. The 2009 event was the 14th programme since its establishment in 1996.
Al-Quds is the Arabic name for Jerusalem, the proclaimed capital of the State of Palestine, although the seat of government and de facto capital is Ramallah. Many of the events were held in the Palestinian territories controlled by the Palestinian National Authority. The opening event scheduled for January 2009 was delayed due to the Gaza War.〔(Israel bans Palestinian cultural events ). Ynet News, 2009-03-20.〕 It was held on March 21, 2009.〔(Jerusalem Capital of Arab Culture 2009 festival begins Saturday ). Al-Quds Arab Capital of Culture Official Website〕
==Launching of the events==
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas officially launched the celebration of Jerusalem as the Capital of Arab Culture for 2009 at a ceremony in Bethlehem. Simultaneous ceremonies were supposed to take place in Jerusalem, Gaza, Nazareth and Mar Elias refugee camp in Lebanon. These synchronized celebrations in five locations reflect the desire of building a cultural bridge between the Palestinian people in Palestine and the Palestinians in the diaspora.〔 Israeli Internal Security Minister Avi Dichter instructed police to suppress PNA-sponsored events calling Jerusalem the "capital of Arab culture" because they constituted a violation of the interim agreement, which includes a clause stating that the PA is prohibited from organizing events in Israeli territory.〔〔(Police: Palestinian cultural event failed ). Ynet News, 2009-03-22.〕
On Dichter's orders, police shuttered eight planned events and detained twenty organizers and participants for questioning.〔(Police arrest 20 at Palestinian 'culture event' ). Ynet News. 2009-03-21〕 The blocked events included a soccer match scheduled at a school on Nablus Road, a conference for young women at the Al-Hiya'la Center, and marches in the Wadi al-Joz and Sheikh Jarrah neighborhoods. In addition, a group of Arab students was blocked from rallying at the Temple Mount with PLO flags. A similar ceremony was blocked on the Haroun al-Rashid road.〔 Events in Ras al-Amud and al-Tur were also shut down.〔(Police shut down Palestinian culture event in Jerusalem ). Ynet News, 2009-03-21〕
