Abstract

This study critically evaluates the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through the dual lenses of identity and territorial struggle, focusing on four central issues: Israel's refusal to return Palestinian land, Palestinian rejection of compensation for displacement, Israel's concern for terrorism from militant Palestinian groups and the implications of continued Israeli expansion in the West Bank and East Jerusalem for peace prospects.
