The al-Aqsa Intifada: Military Operations, Suicide Attacks, Assassinations, and Losses in the First Four Years
Michele Esposito, managing editor of the Journal of Palestine Studies, has compiled a detailed summary covering the past four years of the al-Aqsa Intifada as part of the journal’s continuing coverage and analysis of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
(PRWEB) April 12, 2005 -- Since the al-Aqsa intifada erupted in September
2000, events on the ground have moved at a staggering pace. Few organizations
have attempted to keep comprehensive records on any of the losses Palestinians
and Israelis have incurred or the operations Israel has waged, much less all of
them. Data is often hard to find, incomplete, or narrowly focused or the
methodology behind the reporting is unclear.
The Journal of Palestine
Studies for the first time has collected the available data from Palestinian,
Israeli, and international organizations, as well as from its own daily coverage
presented each quarter in its Chronology and Quarterly Update sections to create
a valuable reference folio covering:
• Overview of Israeli Military
Operations from the Outbreak of the al-Aqsa Intifada
• Losses on the
Four-Year Anniversary of the al-Aqsa Intifada: A Comparative Statistical Table
• Palestinian Suicide Attacks during the First Four Years of the al-Aqsa
Intifada
• Israeli Assassinations during the First Four Years of the al-Aqsa
Intifada
The collection provides handy reference material for
journalists, researches, students, academics, politicians, lobbyists, and anyone
needing quick access to statistics or a brief reminder of the military
milestones in the course of the conflict. The material is clearly organized so
that readers can easily find the specific information they need.
