THE ISSUE

Introduction

***** violence escalates ***** the Palestine, ***** intractable problem becomes even more intractable. Intense fighting between Israel***** and Palestinians, the most intense inside the borders of the former Palestine since Israel's creation in 1948 are claim*****g a daily toll in double digits. Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's increasingly tough tactics are exacerbating the conflict. A war of attrition is going on that has ***** potential to escalate into an all out region al war.

*****part from the hum***** tragedy, serious danger to peace and stability in the region is developing from th***** continued conflict. Any esc*****ation would seriously jeopardize the American 'war against terrorism' both by focusing world attention on the Middle East and giving the anti American forces and the 'terrorists' fresh justification for targeting American interest worldwide. Sympathies ***** more governments and people around ***** world may also be gained by them in the *****t of such a situation *****cause the war if it occurs will be devastating and bloody and many ***** die ***** the economy of the region as well ***** ***** world suffer greatly as a result.

B*****ckground to the Tensions and ***** Present State of the Conflict:

Israel is now much stronger militarily than it was in 1973, the last time there was an all out war between Israel and its Arab neighbors. Chances ***** that Israel would win such an outright military conflict, but as Time wrote recently, " even a splendid victory would be disastrous for Israel, because at gre***** expense in wealth *****d blood, it ***** gain nothing in the aftermath that it did not have before ***** current crisis: safety ***** invasion. And any outcome at ***** would be ***** for Western, especially American interests." Though an Arab victory is unthinkable, the danger of an utter humiliation would mean, "the fundamentalists would ***** their first real Chicano of coming to power." (Luttwak, E., 2002)

There is no let up in the fighting as ***** Prime ***** Ariel Sharon sticks to his stand ***** Arafat "stop the suicide bombings and other terror attacks" ***** Israel that kill civilians. Arafat for ***** part is helpless. The suicide bom*****rs are hardly under his control, at le*****t ***** the *****. According to *****, there are at least four large Palestinian ***** Arab organizations engaged in *****-Israel resistance, or Int*****ada, Hamas and ***** sister organization Islamic jihad, which ***** radical ***** gro*****s, Hizballah, a Shi'ite Muslim militi***** that orig*****ated in Leba*****n ***** 1982 to fight ***** occupation there ***** the Al-Aqsa Martyr Brigade, ***** secular group ***** supports Arafat's Al Fatah organization. The bone of contention at present are the Jewish settlements in the occupied areas that Sharon insists will be built at all costs. The other issue is the establishment of the Palestinian State.

***** current ***** is that Arafat is besieged ***** Israeli tanks
