TY - JOUR PY - 2003// TI - The quest for strategy JO - Journal of Palestine studies A1 - Bishara, A. SP - 41 EP - 49 VL - 32 IS - 2 N2 - After critiquing what have become the main axes of political debate in the occupied territories-suicide bombings, armed operations, and reform-the author emphasizes the imperative need for a comprehensive, inclusive resistance strategy. Elaborating upon five major ingredients that must be taken into account when developing a sound strategy-cost to the adversary, cost to Palestinian society, political discourse, a clear message to the adversary, and a clear message to the world-he argues that in the present phase a resistance strategy is not at odds with state building, and that the two should be pursued in tandem.
