Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to answer the following question: “Did U.S. foreign policy ýundermine peace efforts in the occupied Palestinian territories during the Oslo process?” ýCareful observation of U.S. foreign policy toward the Palestinian issue reveals that the ýUnited States has indeed undermined peace efforts in the occupied Palestinian territories. ýThe American position substantially departed from United Nations resolutions 242 and ýý338, which the Palestinians were promised would serve as the basis for negotiations. ýAlthough the American-Israeli alliance underwent periodic adjustments, American ýforeign policy has, over the last decade, helped to create a framework in the Middle East ýwherein only Israeli needs have legitimacy. During the Oslo process, the United States ýand Israel have tried to impose Israel’s plans on the Palestinians, ignoring U.N. ýresolutions and the international community. The evidence reveals that U.S. foreign ýpolicy was based on double standards and unfair terms. Further, the seeming link ýbetween the aid provided by the United States to Israel and the latter’s aggressive policies ýtoward the Palestinians makes it appear as though Washington is “rewarding” such ýpolicies, that is, as if Washington is enabling Israel to deny Palestinians’ legitimate rights, ýviolate U.N. resolutions and principles of international law, keep its military occupation ýforces, and expand Jewish settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories.ý
