Of course there is a piel and pual in Hebrew. Piel is with the inserted (twice?) personal pronoun 

-I- for היא 'he', and pual is with the inserted personal pronoun -U- for הוא 'he'.

No piel or pu'al in Hebrew, Isaac? That's a bit far out!

I emphatically think there is no "Emphatic  D-stem" in Hebrew. I think it is also better not to clutter Hebrew grammar with all sorts of "stems".
