Abstract

Filistin’de bölünmüşlük kavramı ile kastedilen Filistin toplumunun ve siyasetinin temelde El Fetih ve Hamas olarak iki farklı örgüt tarafından temsil edildiği yapıdır. Bu bölünmüşlük coğrafi, sosyolojik, ekonomik ve siyasi olarak ayrışmayı ifade eder. Filistin toplumu İsrail işgali ile birbirinden koparılmış ve parçalara ayrılmıştır. Coğrafi bölünme sosyolojik ve ekonomik farklılıklara yol açmıştır. Filistin’deki bu bölünme silahlı iç çatışmaya dahi dönüşmüştür. Bu durum İsrail’e karşı askerî, diplomatik ve siyasi mücadeleyi zayıflatmıştır. İsrail-Filistin sorununa ilişkin çözüm arayışları ile Filistin içi barışın ve birliğin sağlanması birbirinden bağımsız değildir. Filistin ancak birlik halinde olursa İsrail ile güç farkını kapatma noktasında yol alabilir.

The Effect of Division in Palestine on the Deadlock with Israel, within the Framework of Power Asymmetry

Abstract

What is meant with the concept of division in Palestine is the structure that is presented by two different organizations, which are El-Fatah and Hamas. This split represents geographical, sociologic, economic and political separation. The Palestine society is disintegrated and split into parts with Israel occupation. The geographical separation caused sociologic and economic differences. This separation in Palestine turns into even an internal armed conflict. This situation weakens the military, diplomatic and political struggle against Israel. The search for solution to the Israel-Palestine problem and to restore the peace and unity in Palestine are not independent from one another. If only Palestine keeps its unity and stays together, then it can advance in closing the power gap with Israel.
