중동평화와 팔레스타인 민족봉기(인티화다)

The Middle East Peace and the Palestinian Intifada Movement

This study intends to analyze the increasingly difficult issues involved in the Middle East Peace Process, and to present an explanatory framework to define conflicts between the Palestinians and the Israelis. According to the Oslo Accord of 1993, it seemed that the overall Arab-Israeli conflict was finally going to be settled, but by the end of 2000, the negotiations for peace in the Middle East had collapsed thereby leading to the second Palestinian intifada(uprising). The negotiations were always broken due to the Israeli settlement policy which has contributed to dividing the Palestinian autonomy areas. After the September 11 terror against New York and Washington, the United States announced the war against terrorism related to the al Qaeda led by Osama bin Laden based in Afganistan and finally against the Iraqi Baath regime led by Sadam Hussein. Therefore, Bush administration lost their role as a mediator in the Middle East peace process. The possibility of peace in the Middle East, therefore, is temporarily doomed, as the United States pursues its own versions of the new order in the Middle East and the World. The issue of the Middle East Peace has a new approach keeping pace with the steps of reconstruction program in Iraq. However, the roadmap after the war will be decided by the US government's perceptions of the terrorism in this region.
