Abstract
This paper debates the book "Compromising Palestine: A Guide to the Final Status Negotiations" by Aharon Klieman and examines the options of both nations, Palestine and Israel. This paper illustrates the major issues of the ongoing conflict and the fundamental problems of territories, religious sites, and refugees.
From the Paper
"Kleiman wrote that partition was a necessary evil while Mearsheimer suggests that in no way will the Palestine people ever agree to a partition on the terms that are being offered. The paradox of partition continues even after 50 years and it becomes a race to see which side will win the race. Is partition necessary as Kleiman suggests or is Mearsheimer correct when he claims that the 50 year old history between the two nations will not allow the concept of partition being accepted. In order to understand the dynamics we must under take a analysis of the history of the two nations. While analyzing the concept of partition Kleiman studied the history of the Palestine - Israel conflict. He realized that fifty years ago the Palestinians, and the Arabs, rejected resolution 181 calling for the establishment of two independent states in Palestine. The resolution also made Jerusalem a city under international administration and marked its borders. While the Arabs rejected the offer, the Jews accepted it. Thirty-three countries, including the then Soviet Union and the United States, voted for the resolution while 13 voted against and 10 abstained."

Abstract
This paper examines how the core of the Israel-Palestine conflict is the State of Israel,created when, in 1947, UN decided to split Palestine into two separate Arab and Jewish states. It discusses how the countries have since not seen peace, how there is constant conflict, and how Palestinians have waged a never-ending war with Israel and vice versa. It analyzes how the countries are now interlinked due to this major conflict, and all efforts of bringing peace to this region have failed. The author proposes a potential two-state solution to the problem similar to the one implemented in India and Pakistan.
From the Paper
"Peace talks which had been going on for several years led to the historic agreements between Israel and the PLO led by Yasser Arafat, in Sept. 1993. The Palestine Liberation Organization agreed to the existence of Israel while Israel recognized PLO as the Palestinians' representative. The two later signed an agreement on September 13 which allowed limited Palestinian self-rule and the West Bank and Gaza. (Heilbrunn, 1995) The country in a bid to achieve more political stability in the region signed an agreement with Jordan in 1994, which brought an end to the 46-years of war and conflict between the two states. On October 26, that year a formal peace treaty was signed."

Abstract
This paper examines the influence, power, agenda and motivations of the Palestine Liberation Front. The paper then analyzes the political, economic, social and cultural conditions in Palestine to gain an understanding of how the PLF and other terror groups are thriving in the Muslim Middle East.
From the Paper
" Because these conditions are so inflammatory, the religious, financial, and criminal motives of the PLF have been radicalized to such an extent that peaceful coexistence with Israel appears to be extremely unlikely. The Palestine Liberation Front emerged in the late nineteen-seventies but quickly split into pro-PLO, pro-Syrian, and pro-Libyan factions. According to NPS (2005) "the pro-PLO faction was led by Muhammad Abbas and was based in Baghdad prior to Operation Iraqi Freedom. "

Abstract
This paper takes a historical look at why Israel received independence and Palestine did not, thereby creating an inevitable conflict which still exists until today.
From the Paper
"The conflict between the Arab and Israeli forces that echoes audibly in today's monumental unrest is one that has persisted through innumerable eras and incarnations. At some points a discourse of political disagreement and at other points, the current historical axis being one of them, a hotbed for military action and unchecked violence, the ideal at the crux of it all is over a claim to the land now known as Israel. Established in 1948 at the behest of the Zionist movement, after centuries of Diaspora, Israel is certainly no less contested now than it was one hundred years ago. This naturally incites a question as to why the Zionists were rewarded for their efforts toward statehood while a Palestinian population was disowned and disregarded for similar desires. While the creation of a Jewish homeland stood as the paramount aim for an inestimable space of time, it was not until the period just after WWI, upon the inception of the British Mandate that the gears began to turn toward an allotment of the land known as Palestine."

Abstract
This paper discusses the reasons why the Balfour Declaration of 1917 was so important for the political and social developments in Palestine at the time. It discusses the history of the Declaration and the British interest in the area. The paper then shows how the ambiguity of the Declaration marked the beginnings of the Arab-Israeli conflict that still exists today.
From the Paper
"The 1917 Balfour Declaration added to the tensions between the Palestinian Arabs and Jews worldwide, thus it can be seen as one of the beginnings of the Arab-Israeli war present in today's society. The ambiguity of the document led to much confusion between Jews as to what portion of Palestine would become theirs, which has been argued to have been part of the British government's aims in order to gain Jewish support for the war whilst being careful to keep peaceful relations with the Palestinian Arabs at the time. The Balfour Declaration was a document based on colonialism, nationalism and imperialism; the colonization of the Palestinian Arab's territory by the Jewish people according to Jewish ideals for a national homeland in Palestine, in order to secure the strategic Suez Canal and control over oil in the region."

Abstract
This paper very briefly focuses the relationship between hegemonic globalization and terrorism. In particular, this paper emphasizes Palestine as a land colonized by others with the United States roundly supporting its alleged "client state", Israel. Among other things, the paper draws the link between Gulliver in Lilliput and the clumsy colossus, America, in the Middle East.
From the Paper
"Few modern trends are as disturbing as the proliferation of terrorism in recent years. Since 9/11, the world has come to realize that no one is invulnerable from terrorist attack. This brief paper will examine the relationship between globalization and terrorism by examining the particular case of Palestine. As will soon become apparent, while globalization has brought riches to some, it has created anger, resentment and misery for many more. To begin with, globalization can be seen as a colonizing phenomenon, with powerful western nations imperiously lording over more impecunious lands. As Nassar states, "hegemony continues into the twenty-first century under the guise of globalization" (3). His conception of globalization then, is that it is imperialism under another banner. In the particular case of Palestine, anger and resentment arose out of the colonizing of their ancestral land by Zionists (Nasser 41). "

From the Paper
"The "settlement issue" -- the existence of Jewish settlements in the West Bank and Gaza, those parts of "historic Palestine" that came under Israeli control after the 1967 war -has in recent years become one of the most contentious issues facing would-be peacemakers in the Middle East. Many observers see the settlements as the principal obstacle lying in the way of some convenient territorial compromise that would create a Palestinian state or "entity." They have become the emotional center of anti-Israeli rhetoric on the part.of Arabs and their sympathizers. The United States has, at various times, damned the settlements as illegal, or at least as "an obstacle to peace." The government of Israel, on the other hand, claims a right to establish such settlements not only for reasons of short-term security, but on the grounds of a historic right of..."

Abstract
This paper attempts to track the history of the Palestinian people. It begins with early biblical times and progresses through the Middle Ages to modern times. It explores the cultural and social development of this nation and discusses the current political situation in the region today.
From the Paper
"Palestine's location between Egypt and southwest Asia has made it a center of conflict for thousands of years (Le Gall 1). Palestine is not an ordinary place, with an almost mythological territory saturated with religious ideology and endowed with overwhelming cultural significance, Palestine has been weighed down with historical as well as political meanings for many generations, people, and traditions (Said 1). Palestine's position between the center of routes linking three continents, made it the meeting place for religious and cultural influences from Egypt, Syria, Mesopotamia, and Asia Minor. This region, also known as the Holy Land, is held sacred among Jews, Christians, and Muslims (Britannica 1). DeHass stated that three world religions sprang from ideas and hopes nurtured on its hills and in its valleys and that within its borders at least three attempts have been made to found universal religions (1)."

Abstract
This paper describes the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, explaining that the present day conflict arose right after WWII when Europe partitioned what was then Palestine in order to give the Jewish people a much needed homeland of their own. The paper gives insight into positions on both sides of the conflict, pointing out that the longstanding anger and hatred between the two sides will make finding peace exceedingly difficult.
From the Paper
"The tensions between Palestinians and Jews came to a head in 1947, when the very new United Nations decided to "partition" the land, so that both Palestinians and Israelis could have land in what was then Palestine. The United Nations was well aware that Hitler had tried to exterminate every Jew in Europe, killing over 6,000,000 Jews (and other people deemed "undesirable") during his reign of terror. The idea of Jewish homeland where Jews could live safe from persecution resonated."
