Abstract
When the historic "Gaza and Jericho" first agreement was signed in September 1993 at the White House in Washington, D. C., in the presence of Palestinian Liberation Organization (plo) Chairman Arafat, Israeli Prime Minister Rabin and President Clinton, uproar and discontent were exhibited by all radical groups, Israeli and Palestinian. The main objections that were raised were religiously articulated, i.e., the giving up of greater Israel or the promised land or Palestine, the eternally and religiously endowed land. Of course, the first Islamic groups to object were the Islamist movements such as Hamas and al-Jihad al-Islami. With this agreement, the plo found itself in the odd position of being a voice of "moderation" in the Middle East. Arafat also attacked Palestinian Islamic movements and accused Israel of strengthening them with the aim of having them compete with the plo. (Usher 1994) In the decade since, Arafat has died, the post 9/11 "war on terror" dominates the world scene, the US is in Iraq and is attracting terror elements from all over the world, Spain and England have faced terror attacks, and the plo has been eclipsed by the Islamicist Hamas.
