| | The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict - Issues in a Nutshell |
 | | An Israeli Supreme Court ruling declared that the fence is not illegal in principle, but that the route must be changed to optimize the balance between security and humanitarian concerns. | | | At the same time, he has insisted that "the law will be enforced" and that the PNA would not permit chaos and independent actions by armed groups. | | | In 1993, the PLO signed the Oslo Declaration of Principles, renouncing violence and agreeing to honor UN SC Resolution 242, which implicitly recognizes the right of Israel to exist. |

| | They include the recognition that the fundamental issues -establishment of a Palestinian state, borders, refugee rights, settlements, Jerusalem, etc- cannot be delayed until a mythical "final status" long after negotiations are underway, but must be spelled out at the beginning so both parties are clear as to what the results will be. | | | The Court finds that Israel must respect the right of the Palestinian people to self‑determination and its obligations under humanitarian law and human rights law. | | | With disengagement, Sharon seeks to exploit the perception that there is no Palestinian partner for negotiations, and to impose Israel’s power on the weaker party. |

| | The United States and European Union halted aid payments to the Hamas-led Palestinian government Friday after the new cabinet refused to renounce violence or recognize Israel's right to exist. | | | The United Nations warned against cutting off aid to the Palestinian Authority after U.S. And European states indicated that they would halt funding once the militant group Hamas takes over the Palestinian government. | | | Tuesday's elections in Israel will likely mark a crucial watershed in determining the country's future as well as its relationship with a new Palestinian Authority dominated by the militant group Hamas. |

| | The Israeli construction of the West Bank apartheid wall is clearly a politically motivated maneuver intent on reshaping the West Bank, rendering impossible a viable Palestinian state, and with it any lasting peace through a two state solution. | | | The increasingly explosive conflict in the Middle East, especially between Israel and the Arab states, is becoming a major factor of divergence between European and American public opinions. | | | However, Sharon added, Israel will not make concessions on the issue of security. |
