Aqsa Intifada which has begun in 28 September 2000 through its two years age, represented the most developed steadfastness, confrontation & sacrifice of the Palestinian People in their long independence struggle. This is in the face of the comprehensive Israeli war that Sharon leads against the Palestinians. The Palestinians could seize the initiation in this war. They brought up a unique model in resistance filled with creativity, proficiency and success against Israeli troops.

This new Intifada showed the capability to reach the relative balance of deterrence with the Israeli occupiers. The Palestinian resistance succeeded in many times in limiting Israeli choices more than the Israeli tanks, helicopters and artillery could do to the Palestinians.

This Intifada strengthened the Arab political forces and parties –who where steered in the streats by the Israeli crimes- while it weakened their governments.

An odd efforts to the Intifada & resistance tried to use the Palestinian economic, social & medical suffer as an excuse.

This is alike previous efforts that succeeded to raise & exaggerate the negative outcomes of the first Intifada in 1987 prior to Oslo agreement official endorsement.

The Palestinians wonder, while feeling the deep pain in their hearts, about the ignorance and silence of the Arab & International communities towards the Israeli war crimes committed daily against children, woman, houses, farms and even animals in the West bank & Gaza strip.

The USA- the key player in the world community- couldn’t play its supposed role in such situations. It stood beside the criminal against the victim.

The support for peace process severely was damaged amongst the Palestinians due to all above. The public Palestinians are reconsidering their elite trust in the international legitimacy that didn’t stand properly when Israelis committed atrocities, grave violations of human rights and even war crimes on TV screens as if it is a media show. The supporters of resistance & Intifada against Israeli occupation as a strategic option has prevailed.

The Palestinians feel that they have gained the change of deterrence balance with the Israelis, which is seen as a very serious motive to continue their struggle regardless of the international community’s ashamed efforts to end Palestinians’ suffer and deterioration.
