Oslo Records

On 13th September, 1993, two men who were regarded as mortal enemies reached to an agreement and signed it for sake of peace. The PLO Chairman Yasser Arafat and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin in the presence of Foreign Minister Shimon Peres and official witnesses, the foreign ministers of the U.S. and Russia signed at Oslo, Norway. The U.S. President Bill did indeed have to do a bit more to Rabin and Arafat to move to clasp hands for photographers, but he is convinced of the need of the hour "Today we are witnessing an extraordinary act in a drama that more than any other shaped the history has". Israel and the Palestinians had to seal the "Declaration of Principles on Interim Self-Government Arrangements," which will go down as the "Oslo Accords" in the story. Of secret negotiations in earlier emissaries of PLO leader Arafat and Foreign Minister Peres had in the seclusion of Norway provided the basis for an agreement whose aim was to resolve decades-old conflict between Israel and the Palestinians. Among other things, the basis will be laid for an Israeli withdrawal from the territories occupied in 1967. There should be a Palestinian self-government be created that would one day evolve into an independent state.

The agreement reached at Oslo had been reached encounters immediately with scepticism. Bill Clinton tried to push aside such warnings by pointing out that fourteen years had previously signed on the same table, the peace between Israel and Egypt. Clinton was with the view that this brave setting, this could be better than the past ones. Clinton's confidence proves to be incorrect in the following years. Today we speak almost no more of Oslo. Israelis and Palestinians still live not in peace. Instead they have the multi-year "intifada" again delivered bloody battles. The rise of the Islamists of Hamas, especially its takeover of the Gaza Strip, has a solution that can move even further into the distance. Hamas rejects Israel and the Oslo Accords, and also why Israel refuses to accept Hamas as a negotiating partner. The remains of the PLO, Arafat's successor, Mahmoud Abbas, who admittedly does not control the entire Palestinian territory. Yair Hirschfeld, who designed the Israeli side of the Oslo Accords said that "Oslo was an agreement about how to negotiate, how we can work out a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians. The structure was that a contract should be dealt with by one".

These contracts have been implemented only partially or not at all. Thus, the PLO under Arafat returned from the Tunisian exile but returned to his old home, there formed an autonomy from government and also held elections. A real withdrawal of Israeli troops from the territories occupied in 1967 did not take place not. Restrictions of the occupation of the Palestinian population remained in place and the renegotiation agreement fell apart. Then Israeli
