The Israeli Palestinian conflict is one of the oldest
ethno-political conflicts. Following a seven-year period of
negotiation and peace building efforts (the Oslo Process) in
the 90th of the last century, it has re-erupted violently in
the form of the second Intifada.
Thus far it has not been possible to resolve some of the
core problems of the conflict - primarily the return of
Palestinian Occupied Territories that are crucial for the
national identity of both peoples, the return of the 3.5
million Palestinian refugees who were displaced in 1948/49 and
the status of East Jerusalem. During the Oslo Process and the
second Intifada the national - Israeli Palestinian - conflict
was compounded by an internal Palestinian one. This was marked
by, among other things, the continuing loss of power of and
confidence in the Palestinian National Authority (PNA),
increasing conflict between Fatah and Hamas, which has now
gained power, and the parallel emergence of local power and
security structures.
