It was built for the benefit of the Jewish population of the city, and it transposed the Holy Land, from a medical point of view, to the modern era. The huge archives of the London Society in England contain many documents dealing with its activity. One document, revealed here for the first time, describes the content of the medicinal preparations held in the stores of the British hospital and dispensary in Jerusalem on July 21 1857. The list, presented here in full, is impressive in its length, containing hundreds of medicinal substances originating from plants, minerals, and animals that were used in the Western world at the time. Most of the chemicals in the list had never previously appeared in any published historical source concerning Palestine. The list is thus one of the first pieces of evidence of modern medical and pharmacological activities in the Holy Land. A comparison of the list with several other 19th century lists of medicinal substances found in professional literature revealed that it contains most of the known medicinal substances of that time. Compared with medieval documents, or lists of traditional substances compiled a few years earlier, the 1857 list is richer and contains new substances and preparations originating in the New World (America) and chemicals unknown in the region before. It is evidence of the change that occurred in the field of pharmacology owing to the penetration of the modern medicine into the Holy Land. The 1857 list contains 268 substances: 147 medicinal preparations of plant origin, 117 preparations of chemical and mineral origin, and only four of animal origin.

In this paper the causes of these changes are examined.

Our contention is that during the past century, as the current Israel National narrative was molded, the notions of military might and invincibility was carefully-often unwittingly-lending the "transmettre à l'emprunteur" to the military. This article aims at examining the formative years form the late19th Century onward and tracing the development of self-defense militias into a legitimate fighting force, the modern IDF. The examination continues to the present where we examine the development of a superior military that far exceeds the self-defensive needs and projects itself into the modern world as a remarkable military machine.

National consensus in the security sphere has collapsed. The authority and legitimacy of the political leadership have been shaken, and the army has acquired direct political roles, mainly through the establishment of a military government in the occupied territories. These developments have changed the early pattern of a nonpolitical citizen army, subordinate to the civil authorities, to a new pattern of political- military partnership. The intense politicization of the Israel Defence Forces undermined their former elevated and sacred position and made them a focus of public controversy. Thus, while Israel has remained a democracy, in spite of the protracted war, its armed forces have taken over functions far exceeding those of other professional armies in similar Western democracies.
