Hi Nadine Carroll, Found this linked in the British Daily Telegraph of all places. www2.alternativenews.org www2.alternativenews.org What do you think of it's content? and how should the matter be settled now? Should "Palestinians" become Arab Israeli's, and West bank becomes part of Israel? Quite honestly, I think it may be a better deal for the Palestinians, provided they become "equal" citizens in Israel. ======================================================= Israel Moves to Crush the Palestinian National Movement <<snip>> The Israeli perspective of the Oslo agreements can be analysed from the context of looking for an alternative to the PLO. The Palestinian Authority was expected to exchange the national liberation project of the PLO for statehood. Arafat was ready to make the exchange but Israel couldn't deliver the goods: Palestinian statehood meant restraining the Zionist colonial project and dismantling settlements. This deal was exposed as being untenable when Israeli political society refused to restrain the colonization project and was ready to impose on Arafat a geographically unsustainable Palestinian state shot through with settlement blocks and divided by by-pass roads. This impossible reality led to the Intifada in September 2000 as a popular movement against both the Israeli occupation and repression and against the non-democratic regime in construction under the PA. <<endsnip>> =========================================================== I've been posting other ME stuff here btw.. Subject 51285. There does seem to be some Arab League activity going on in the background. No idea what the plan is.
