Abstract

The picture taken at the washington summit right after the Madrid conference just says it all: Rabin and Arafat, the representatives of the two most antagonistic peoples in the modern world, shake hands under Clinton's blessing. Thus it may seem that the American presence and participation is the condition to successful peace negotiations between arabs and israelis. But the truth is that the interests at stake in this long-lasting conflict −land and religion, to name but a few− are too linked to both Palestinian and israeli communities to be solved by an external power. The very notion of "promised land" shows that this is first a matter of attachment to land, something quite irrational or at least not rational enough to be tamed by outside powers. The united states has proved to be able to elaborate solutions that seem workable, but actual implementation is very difficult because old interests and rivalries cast away signs of sensibility.
