The 1949 Lausanne Conference 39 US Foreign Policy, the Arab-Israeli Dispute and the ‘Peace Process’ Mirage: Lausanne 1949 and Camp David 2000 Kristen Blomeley PhD 2009 Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to understand why the Arab-Israeli conflict has remained irreconcilable for sixty-one years. While the details and forms of the conflict have changed over time, the central factors dividing Zionists and Arabs in the Middle East have altered little. In this thesis I examine what these factors are and why they have been so effective in frustrating every peace effort. To understand the fundamental factors which keep the dispute alive I have conducted a comparative study of the two major peace initiatives which frame it diplomatically. The first formal peace conference between Israel and her Arab adversaries took place in Lausanne in 1949. The issues of borders, Jerusalem and refugees would not be seriously engaged with again until the last peace effort to date, the Camp David talks of 2000. Through a detailed comparative analysis of both conferences I seek to understand the positions taken by the warring parties towards these issues and the broader motivating factors separating them and preventing them from achieving peace. As the most important third party and supposed ‘honest broker’ in both talks, I also closely examine the behaviour and policy of the US at each case. I find that the positions taken towards each issue by Israel, on the one hand, and the Arab party, on the other, were remarkably consistent in 1949 and 2000. Israel was not fully committed to peace in either instance, while the Arabs twice refused to sign what amounted to documents of surrender. These consistent positions starkly contrasted with that of the US, which completely changed its positions in ways which, by 2000, had almost wholly aligned it with Zionist demands. I conclude that future peace will rest on the ability of each party to re-examine its past in order to produce a spirit of reconciliation. For Israel, this will mean honestly revisiting Zionism in order to confront what its triumph meant for the Palestinian inhabitants of the land. The Arabs must also seek a broader understanding of their role in the dispute and demonstrate forcefully to Israelis that they seek peace rather than retribution. Above all, if the US is to retain its role as mediator it must abandon its ‘special relationship’ with Israel and return to a more genuinely’ even handed alignment with the broader international consensus on the dispute. As it stands, the US’s more or less unconditional support of Israel has the effect of leading Israelis and Palestinians ever further from peace even as an ever more empty ‘peace process’ is rhetorically trumpeted abroad.

The intervening years had witnessed the escalation and demise of the Cold War, unprecedented economic growth throughout the northern hemisphere, the invention of space travel and revolutionary changes in technology which have made societies and the individuals which fill them truly ‘global’. Yet amidst the frantic pace of change which characterises today’s world, the Arab-Israeli conflict has remained largely stagnant. Israel is as much an aberration in the Middle East today as it was at the time of her establishment. Despite forging two peace treaties, the Zionist state has failed to normalise relations with her neighbours and is commonly regarded as a hostile entity throughout the Arab world. Time has only acted to deepen the wounds inflicted at the conflict’s birth, leaving the dispute arguably more complicated and insoluble today than at the point of its creation. The dispute’s ability to adapt to changing world paradigms is truly unique. Locked in Cold War politics during most of its existence, the Arab-Israeli conflict has now become central to the West’s proclaimed war on ‘terror’. This adaptability has not just allowed the conflict to grow over time, but has also introduced outside actors, including the world’s superpowers and the three monotheistic religions, all of which claim to possess a personal stake in the dispute. As such the Arab-Israeli conflict has become much more than a local or regional dispute, but one which arouses passions around the world while leaving only hatred and intolerance in its path. For the people living within the borders of the dispute, the continuing conflict has brought only misery and loss. The Palestinians have lost all of their former lands while Kristen Blomeley 1 Introduction Israelis have never known what it is to live secure lives, despite the fact that security is the highest priority of the Government of Israel (GOI). While Israel has prospered into a highly developed society it has become a pariah state in the United Nations and both its economic and demographic growth has been impeded by its troubled relationship with its neighbours. The Palestinians have become a nation of refugees, both internal and external, without any control over their own lives or access to basic human and political rights. The fifty years marking the dispute to the year 2000 were not idle however. Many peacemaking attempts punctuated the years, almost all of which ended in failure. The purpose of this study is to try to understand why the Arab-Israeli conflict, which has taken countless lives, caused endless misery and generated ramifications well beyond its borders, has not been resolved and in fact has been allowed to remain unresolved. Countless peacemakers have attempted to break the DNA code of the dispute but almost all have come away with nothing for their efforts. Different mediating formats, formulas, protocols and locations have all turned up the same negative results. Rather than assuming that there was something fundamentally wrong with each mediating effort in the fifty years spanning the dispute, it must be acknowledged that there is a factor within the dispute itself which defies resolution. The purpose of this work is to determine what that factor is. Only once this riddle is solved can future peace efforts hope to finally draw the conflict to a close and bring peace to the Middle East. In order to achieve this understanding I have conducted a comparative study of the 1949 Lausanne Conference and the Camp David final status talks in 2000. While many peacemaking attempts took place during the years separating the conferences, these talks essentially bookmark serious peace efforts to date. The Lausanne Conference is unique in that it occurred while the dispute was still in its infancy and involved all of the major players, including the US, the latter adopting a key mediating role. The subjects under discussion at Lausanne would not appear on a summit’s agenda again until fifty years later at the 2000 final status talks. The Camp David summit, therefore, was effectively Lausanne II. While the parties at the peace-table had changed, each conference was an attempt to settle all of the fundamental issues which have been understood to frame the dispute. These issues of borders, refugees and Jerusalem, were considered ‘taboo’ during Kristen Blomeley 2 Introduction the intervening years, with their mere mention likely to incite strong protests outside the Arab world.

  • TIP Conference Call with Dr. Jonathan Schanzer Omri Ceren
    TIP Conference Call with Dr. Jonathan Schanzer Omri Ceren: Thank you all for joining us here this morning. We wanted here at The Israel Project to, among other things, take a break from the nearly overwhelming focus that the media has been giving to Iran, a completely justifiable focus, but nonetheless people often forget that Iran is only 50% of the two priorities that President Obama outlined as his top foreign policies when he spoke in front of the United Nations. The other one of course, securing a resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, and as everyone on this call knows, the progress has been uneven, and analysts and journalists and lawmakers have consistently sought to understand why it is that, among other things, robust political and economic institutions in the West Bank, the prerequisite for a Palestinian state, has failed to take hold. There are few, if any people in Washington, D.C. or the country that have analyzed this more deeply than Dr. Jonathan Schanzer, who joins us today from the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. Dr. Schanzer has written about this extensively over many, many years. He has studied it on multiple continents. And his latest book, “State of Failure: Yasser Arafat, Mahmoud Abbas, and the unmaking of the Palestinian state,” which gets at a lot of the issues that have been circulating around the conversation of why it is that the Palestinian side of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict can’t really get its house in order. And I don’t want to take up more of your time or more of Dr.

    ABSTRACT The Dilemma of Justice: How Religion Influences the Political Environment of Post-1948 Israel and Palestine Sasha A. Ross Thesis Chairperson: Marc H. Ellis, Ph.D. This thesis examines the historical context, ideological traditions, and structures of power that animated relations between Israeli Jews and Arab Palestinians during the twentieth century. Cognizant of the “prisms of pain” that have come to symbolize both Jewish and Palestinian identities, this thesis assumes that identities are in constant flux and are often determined by that which they negotiate against. Its first section considers some historical forces, specific inter-group events, and internal political tensions that intensified the early Jewish and Arab national projects against the British and later pitted each group against the other. The second section examines the values enshrined in the sacred texts of each monotheistic tradition and the extent to which such have influenced the political engagement between Jews, Christians, and Muslims. It concludes that because religion can be used as a political tool of repression, a prophetic spirituality common to all three traditions is necessary for any sustainable project of social transformation and political reconciliation.

  • The Arab World in Transition: Has the Future Arrived?
    SIXTH AL JAZEERA ANNUAL FORUM DATE: 12- 14 MARCH 2011 VENUE: SHERATON HOTEL, DOHA THE ARAB WORLD IN TRANSITION: HAS THE FUTURE ARRIVED? The Sixth Annual Al Jazeera Forum aims to explore the complex and changing political, social and economic landscape in the region and its future ramifications in light of the latest upheavals. The Forum will explore the significance of the revolutions and unrest sweeping the Arab world and examine their impact on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. The region’s future hinges on the extent to which the recent uprisings can give rise to new political orders. At the forefront of these revolutions are the Arab youth. The Forum, thus, will explore their role as an emerging political force as well as their use of new technological tools, such as social media, to ignite and effect change. Seminars and sessions will also be dedicated to the evolving nature of journalism: how new methods of investigative reporting have challenged the conventional standards and ethics, and the impact that such imposed transparency may have on events, diplomacy and public opinion in the region and beyond. Political leaders, intellectuals, media experts and the new generation of activists will also explore the developments of fragile states in the region to better understand the emerging realities and their wider implications. The Forum will contemplate implications of these recent transformative changes on the future of the region and how they may affect the relationships between the region and the world.

Contents Preface Introduction: Palestine Cannot Be an Exception 1. The Right to Exist 2. Criminalizing BDS 3. Trumped-Up Policy 4. The Crisis in Gaza Conclusion: Beyond the Limits Acknowledgments Notes Index Preface As this book was going to press, Joe Biden had just defeated Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election. Despite Trump’s deant protests to the contrary, Biden garnered a decisive popular and electoral college victory. In doing so, the election eectively ended four years of the greatest corruption, mismanagement, and hateful leadership that the United States had seen in many years. Still, Biden’s victory was a qualied one. Although he lost the popular vote by nearly 6 million votes, Trump still scored the support of more than 73 million Americans, hardly an overwhelming rebuke of his proto-fascist presidency. While signicantly better than Trump on several key matters, Biden won by running on a platform that oered no radical vision of the future and promised no fundamental social change. Rather, the Biden presidency promised a return to the status quo ante that proved such fertile ground for Trump’s authoritarian hucksterism.

  • Iron Cage : the Story of the Palestinian Struggle for Statehood
    PRAISE FOR THE IRON CAGE “Khalidi, tackling ‘historical amnesia,’ brilliantly analyses the structural handicap which hobbled the Palestinians throughout 30 years of British rule . Khalidi re- stores the Palestinians to something more than victims, acknowledging that for all their disadvantages, they have played their role and can (and must) still do so to determine their own fate.” —Ian Black, The Guardian “A deeply thought-provoking book about Palestinians by a foremost Palestinian scholar that refreshingly challenges stereotypes. Necessary and important.” —Ghada Karmi, author of Married to Another Man: Israel, the Palestinians, and the One-State Solution “A lucid and compelling examination of the Palestinian dilemma by ‘ arguably the foremost US historian of the modern Middle East’.” —Warren I. Cohen, Los Angeles Times “A first-rate and up-to-date historical and political analysis of the Palestinian predicament.” —Publishers Weekly, voting The Iron Cage one of the 100 Best Books of the Year “Khalidi asks crucial questions regarding the state of Palestinian identity and vi- ability that no other historians or political analysts have covered with such depth.” —Alejandra Juárez, Political Affairs “The Iron Cage is a patient and eloquent work, ranging over the whole of modern Palestinian history from World War I to the death of Yasser Arafat. Reorienting the Palestinian narrative around the attitudes and tactics of the Palestinians themselves, Khalidi lends a remarkable illumination to a story so wearily familiar it is often hard to believe anything new can be found within.” —Jonathan Shainin, Salon “Khalidi concentrates on the Palestinian side of this complex sui generis case .
