Understanding the Conflict: A Primer
PART ONE: The Crisis
Why is there so much violence in the Middle East? Isn't there violence on both sides?
Why should Americans care about violence in the Middle East?
Why is the Middle East so important to the U.S. and internationally?
What caused the current crisis?
Why is the current level of violence so intense?
Isn't Israel just trying to fight against terrorism, just like the U.S. in Afghanistan?
Who are the "suicide bombers" and why are they killing themselves and others?
Why are only Palestinians carrying out these suicide bombings?
Are all Palestinians terrorists or supporters of terrorism?
Why are Palestinians in Israel at all?
PART TWO: The Other Players
Why is the Israel-Palestine conflict so important on the global stage? Why does the rest of the world care, and get so involved, in this conflict in such a small place?
What is the international response to the Israel-Palestine conflict? Is there international agreement?
Why hasn't the U.S. been part of that consensus?
Why is the U.S. the central player in the Middle East?
What explains the U.S.-Israeli "special relationship"?
Is the U.S. an "honest broker" in the conflict?
How does the U.S. support Israel?
Why was the Bush administration so much less involved than the Clinton administration in Israel-Palestine diplomacy?
What is the Bush administration Middle East policy all about?
Where does U.S. aid to Israel fit in the broader scheme of U.S. foreign aid? Does the U.S. provide aid to the PA also?
PART THREE: Recent History
Why did the current crisis begin?
What is this second "intifada"? How is this uprising different from the first intifada of 1987-1993?
This whole thing happened after the famous handshake on the White House lawn. Wasn't that supposed to end the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians?
What was the Oslo process? How did the Oslo process start?
Why didn't the Oslo process work?
What were Oslo's "final status" issues? Why were they so difficult?
Whose capital is Jerusalem?
Who are the Palestinian refugees and why won't Israel let the refugees return home?
What happened to settlements and settlers during the years of the Oslo process?
What would a Palestinian "state" as determined by Oslo/Camp David have looked like?
PART FOUR: Looking Backwards (1990-91)
What was the Madrid peace conference in 1991?
What happened to Israel and Palestine during the 1991 Gulf War?
What was the first "intifada" all about?
What were conditions like in the occupied territories before the first intifada?
How did Israel come to be in control of the West Bank, Gaza, and East Jerusalem?
What was the international community's response to the 1967 War?
What was the U.S. relationship to the occupation?
What was the 1982 Lebanon war all about? What was Ariel Sharon's role?
What caused the Sabra-Shatila massacre in Lebanon?
Were the Palestinians demanding national rights and an independent state before the 1967 war?
PART FIVE: The Future
What is the "Road Map" that President Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair, on the eve of the Iraq war, seem so convinced will end the Palestine-Israel conflict?
What would a just and comprehensive peace between Israel and Palestine look like?
Won't a Palestinian state be a threat to Israel's security? What about terrorism?
What would the Middle East region look like with a secure Israel and an independent Palestine living side by side?
Is a two-state arrangement really fair and based on justice?
