CNN.com - Israeli helicopters fire at Gaza targets - Mar 14, 2004 The Palestinian Authority issued a statement condemning Sunday's attacks and calling for an "immediate mutual cease-fire" to stop the continuing violence in the region, but Israeli officials said they would not bow to terrorism. The plan -- backed by the United States, the European Union, the United Nations and Russia -- calls for steps on both sides aimed at ending the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and establishing an independent Palestinian state by 2005. "While the Palestinian government condemns the attack on civilians on both sides and the continuation of the ongoing military escalation, it renews its call to the Israeli government to reach an immediate mutual cease-fire so to break the vicious cycle that harms both nations," the statement said. www.cnn.com /2004/WORLD/meast/03/14/mideast   (813 words)

Middle East Peace - FCNL More than a half-century of conflict, including three wars (’48, ’67, and ’73), nearly four decades of military occupation, and a sharp rise in intensity and violence in the last four years, have left the Israeli — Palestinian peace process in shambles. The cessation of violence on both sides is a necessary step in rebuilding the devastated Palestinian society and economy and securing Israeli society. The 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq blurred the focus of U.S. diplomacy in the Middle East, turning U.S. attention away from the Israeli — Palestinian conflict and toward Baghdad. www.fcnl.org /issues/issue.php?issue_id=36   (458 words)

Israel/Occupied Terr.: Amnesty International's Human Rights Concerns The Israeli government continues to use Caterpillar bulldozers, often illegally, to destroy hundreds of family's homes and possessions, in support of Israel's overall policy of forced eviction and demolition of homes of Palestinians living in the Occupied Territories and Israeli Arabs in Israel. In addition, Palestinians living under Israeli military occupation in The West Bank and Gaza Strip are subject to a wide range of human rights violations. Some 3,700 Palestinians — most of them unarmed and including over 600 children — have been killed by the Israeli army and settlers, and almost 1,000 Israelis — most of them civilians and including more than 100 children — have been killed by Palestinians since the start of the current uprising (Intifada) in September 2000. www.amnestyusa.org /countries/israel_and_occupied_territories/index.do   (381 words)

MidEast Web - Brief History of of Palestine, Israel the Israel-Palestine Conflict (Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, Arab-Israel conflict, Middle East Conflict) In August and September 2002, several attempts at Palestinian cease fire initiatives were foiled by refusal of extremist groups to participate and by Israeli acts such as the killing of Salah Shehadeh, head of the military wing of the Hamas in a missile attack on Gaza that cost the lives of 13 civilians. Palestinian violence erupted on September 28, 2000, triggered by a visit of Ariel Sharon to the Temple mount in Jerusalem, which is also the site of the Al-Aqsa mosque, holy to Muslims. About 2,700 Israeli soldiers and 8,500 Arab soldiers died in the war As a result of the war, the Golda Meir was forced to resign as Prime Minister of Israel, making way for Yitzhak Rabin, who had been Israeli ambassador to the US and previously Chief of staff of the IDF. www.mideastweb.org /briefhistory.htm   (17059 words)

The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict The Palestinian elections are also on the horizon and if extremists in the Palestinian camp are elected to the Palestinian legislature who is not pragmatic towards Israel, it will be very bad for both Israelis and Palestinians. Much of the brutality of the Israeli Border Police in its treatment of the Palestinian population is swept under the carpet by the various governmental ministries. However, we must differentiate between this and the brutality of the Israeli Border Police and not justify the use of this kind of torture because of Palestinian terrorism. shimonzk.blogspot.com   (4068 words)

Nader Writes to the Anti-Defamation League on the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict -- Ralph's Writings - Nader for President 2004 - www.votenader.org See attachment re the omission of any reference to a viable Palestinian state — generally considered by both Israelis and Palestinians, including those who have worked out accords together, to be a sine qua non for a settlement of this resolvable conflict — a point supported by over two-thirds of Americans of the Jewish faith. As you know there is far more freedom in the media, in town squares and among citizens, soldiers, elected representatives and academicians in Israel to debate and discuss the Israeli-Palestinian conflict than there is in the United States. The days when the chief Israeli puppeteer comes to the United States and meets with the puppet in the White House and then proceeds to Capitol Hill, where he meets with hundreds of other puppets, should be replaced. www.votenader.org /why_ralph/index.php?cid=119   (4497 words)

MidEast Web - Middle East Israel - Palestinian Conflict TimeLine Palestinians initiated riots after Israeli opposition leader Ariel Sharon visited the Temple Mount, which is also the location of the Haram as Sharif holy to Muslims. Wye River Plantation talks result in an agreement for Israeli redeployment and release of political prisoners and renewed Palestinian commitment to correct its violations of the Oslo accords including excess police force, illegal arms and incitement in public media and education. This leads to recriminations in the Israeli government, which had intended a smaller scale raid, and Palestinian anger and clashes with Jordanian security forces throughout West Bank, especially in Nablus where the army had to intervene. www.mideastweb.org /timeline.htm   (7807 words)

Choike - Israeli-Palestinian conflict Palestinian dependence on Israel for water and on the international community for healthcare services underscores the crippled state of Palestinian welfare and its subjugation to Israeli military decisions. Israelis have always talked about peace, sung about it, made art and poetry about it as if it is something almost supernatural, some kind of a paradise that they yearn for but that has nothing to do with their everyday reality, and that they have no idea how to create. Palestinian refugees were specifically and intentionally excluded from the international refugee law regime established by the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees and its 1967 Protocol, as long as Palestinian refugees continue to receive assistance from the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). www.choike.org /nuevo_eng/informes/1450.html   (8013 words)

CHALLENGE - A MAGAZINE COVERING THE ISRAELI- PALESTINIAN CONFLICT Now we watch with horror as the violence escalates, both through the terror of the state (Israel) and the individual terror of Palestinians. Although we regard the Israeli Occupation as the basic reason for the havoc in the Territories, we have also claimed consistently that the second Intifada lacks a coherent goal or strategy. We didn’t "fall into line" during the rule of Labor (1992-1996), and we do not hold our tongues when the Palestinian Authority violates human rights. www.hanitzotz.com /challenge   (432 words)

The Israeli offensive in northern Gaza had claimed more Palestinian lives than any operation since the military swept through Palestinian cities in the West Bank in the spring of 2002 in response to a wave of suicide bombings. The Secretary-General once again reiterates his deep conviction that there exists no military solution to the conflict, and calls again on both parties to cease all forms of violence and to renew their search for a peaceful settlement of the conflict. domino.un.org /UNISPAL.NSF/e9abb7dfb6e319c90525675900535dba/e7fb7f9cdd03864985256f40007ace0a!OpenDocument   (4938 words)
