| Long abstract | In this chapter I describe the work of the Palestine Strategy Study Group (PSSG). I received an invitation to a workshop joining a group of Palestinians from the West Bank and the Diaspora at the Dead Sea, Jordan. The approach came from an International Peace and Security think-tank, the Oxford Research Group (ORG), based in London. The approach seemed interesting because the proposal was to get together a group of Palestinian politicians, academics, businessmen and activists from different political backgrounds and from different regions of the world. Prior to this most initiatives were about ‘dialogue’ between Palestinians and Israelis and have singularly failed to produce a positive outcome. The title of the project was ‘Regaining the Initiative: Exploring Palestinian Strategic Options’. |
