Palestinian/Israeli conflict

Introduction

In the almost century-old conflict between Palestinian Arabs and Israeli Jews, there is no ultimate winner or loser. Despite the enormous human and material losses, Israel cannot celebrate victory; nor do the Palestinians entertain defeat. They have both been losing. It is unfortunate that neither side has seriously considered the option of winning together. It is possible to destroy and defeat the enemy's army.

Israel did so in 1967 (Bregman, 2002). It is also possible to defeat a regime (corrupt or otherwise) or to crush armed resistance against occupation. It is less clear, however, how to defeat a nation struggling for freedom or independence. In its attempts to defeat the Palestinians, Israel has resorted to a variety of methods: displacement and dispossession in 1948, the occupation of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip since 1967, the invasion of Lebanon in 1982 and discrimination against its own Palestinian citizens for over 55 years. Yet ultimate victory still eludes it.
