Abstract

There is growing consensus that the constituents of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict be more sophisticated than a classical territory dispute of the “Alsace- Lorraine” type. The present study emphasizes on its religious and chiliastic aspects. Islamic magic thinking here, Jewish “promised land” obsessions there. Under such auspices, no vital space for rational conflict management remains. An opening towards definite conflict settlement -for Palestinians and Israelis alike- may appear on the horizon when mutual sufferings -affecting both parties- reached a degree, that compromise for survival become the only still available option.
