The work frames the “new war” concept as a response to violence that does not fit conventional categories such as conventional war or civil war, and evaluates its causes, trajectory, and outcomes. The book also examines the internal struggles tied to the Oslo agreements, Israeli military politics, and key events including the global war on terror, Defensive Shield, and separation policies such as the fence and withdrawal from Gaza.","Old Conflict, New War  \nThis page intentionally left blank  \nOld Conflict, New War  \nIsrael’s Politics toward the Palestinians  \nUri Ben-Eliezer  \nOLD CONFLICT, NEW WAR  \nCopyright © Uri Ben-Eliezer, 2012.  \nSoftcover reprint of the hardcover 1st edition 2012 978-1-137-02756-6 All rights reserved.  \nFirst published in 2012 by PALGRAVE MACMILLAN®  \nin the United States—a division of St. Martin’s Press LLC, 175 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10010.  \nWhere this book is distributed in the UK, Europe and the rest of the world, this is by Palgrave Macmillan, a division of Macmillan Publishers Limited, registered in England, company number 785998, of Houndmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire RG21 6XS.  \nPalgrave Macmillan is the global academic imprint of the above companies and has companies and representatives throughout the world.  \nPalgrave® and Macmillan® are registered trademarks in the United States, the United Kingdom, Europe and other countries.  \nISBN 978-1-349-43964-5 ISBN 978-1-137-02757-3 (eBook) DOI 10. 1057/9781137027573  \nLibrary of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication Data Ben-Eliezer, Uri.  \nOld conflict, new war : Israel’s politics toward the Palestinians / Uri Ben-Eliezer.  \n[p. cm](p. cm).  \nIncludes bibliographical references.  \nISBN 978–1–137–02756–6 (alk. paper)  \n1.

Some might compare it to giving birth—though mothers would not likely be among them. Writing about Israel in general, and specifically about the sociology and politics of its wars, is all the more difficult, not least for an Israeli living in his country, involved in its unfolding drama, and fearful for its fate. This book deals with a dark period in Israel’s history. A period of disappointed hopes, of domestic crises and conflicts, and of a war that claimed a heavy toll on both sides, most of them civilians. The book seeks to grasp the nature of this war—the “Al-Aqsa Intifada,” as it was called—its causes, trajectory, and results. The concept of“new war” that I use is “borrowed” from other cases of worldwide violence, which do not fit the standard categorization of “conventional war,” or “civil war.” The “new war” idea is not self-evident, and its validity has been disputed. Nevertheless, I find it appropriate for understanding the Israeli case. At the same time, I thought it is useful to enhance and broaden the concept, based on the Israeli experience. My hope is that the experiment was a success and will be helpful in understanding other cases of new wars that are being fought in the global, neoliberal age of reflexive second modernity following the Cold War.  \nLike all team sports, in the creation of a book success has many partners, failure always one blameworthy party. Before the fate of this book is decided, I want to thank those who contributed to it by means of advice, ideas, encouragement, and inspiration.
