Abstract

The present study will discuss the long-standing dispute of Palestine and Israel. This paper reveals the genesis of conflict between the Arab states and the then non-existing state of Israel. The state of Israel was created in 1948 under the tutelage of the Western powers in general and the United States in particular. Furthermore, this work highlights the reaction of the Arab states towards solving this issue. In addition to the Arab states, ideological and geographical organizations i.e. the OIC and the Arab League, have worked for the resolution of this conflict but could not achieve the desired objective i.e. a free and independent homeland for Palestinians. Nature of this conflict is so volatile that it resulted into three full scale wars among the stakeholders with huge cost of lives and resources. Therefore, it is significant for Arab world to make concerted efforts to manage this conflict.
