This document is a project work on the Arab-Israeli conflict prepared by students at Abylaikhan University of International Relations and World Languages in Kazakhstan. It provides background on the conflict, analyzing its historical causes and main stages. It identifies four phases: from pre-1948 to the establishment of Israel, the wars from 1948-1973, the beginning of peace processes from 1973-1993, and the current period since 1994. The document forecasts escalation in the short term due to factors like Iran's nuclear program and the unwillingness of sides to compromise. It concludes that Israel should withdraw from Zionist policies and establish equality for all, while returning territories occupied in 1967.

3. Introduction
Nowadays, one of the most important and the main
problems of mankind is the conflict in the Middle
East. Since the end of World War II to the promised
land once every ten years there is a big war, not
counting border incidents. The conflict continued for
more than sixty years, and no one knows when and
how it will end ...

4. Arab-Israeli Conflict
Arab-Israeli conflict - a military, political, religious,
economic and informational confrontation between Israel
(the Jews who inhabited this land before 1948) and some
Arab states, nations and organizations, mainly located and
operating in the Middle East

5. In the conflict participated with the Arab countries (Lebanon, Syria,
Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Egypt, Iraq and other Arab countries) and the Jewish state
of Israel. During the conflict was signed many agreements on a ceasefire
between the different countries, but the conflict still continued, and every year it
becomes more aggressive and more aggressive on the part of the Jews and the
Arabs. There are new reasons for war and the purpose in it. But the main
purpose is to create a sovereign Arab state in Palestine, which was to be created
after the UN resolution on 29 November 1947.
The conflict has claimed thousands of lives and a lot of the one and the
other. There are millions of refugees, and in the Arab countries and Israel. Both
nations (Arabic and Hebrew) are economic, physical and moral losses. These
losses motivate hostile parties to accept the inevitable truce. The forces within
each nation and the international community who are looking for these truces -
and they contribute to the establishment of peace between the two peoples. For
many years, the problem of the conflict solved the UN Security Council, the EU,
the issue was discussed even at the summits of Eight. However, finding a
consensus is not possible, due to the apparent reluctance of different groups of
countries to resolve this conflict.

7. Complex of the historical causes
Defining the complex causes that gave rise to the conflict, it is
necessary to note the following:
1. historical and territorial (claims of the Palestinian Arabs and
Jews on the same ground, and different interpretations of the
history of these areas);
2. political and ideological (weak elaboration of ideas on the issue
of Zionism Arabs living in the land planned for the creation of the
Jewish state, as well as uncompromising, radical political course
chosen by Arab leaders);
3. Religious (the existence of common or nearby shrines);
4. Economic (blockade of the strategic trade routes);
5. International law (failure to comply with the parties making the
UN and other international organizations);
6. International political (at different stages of the interest
manifested in the various centers of world power in catalyzing
the conflict). [1]

8. Analysis of the dynamics of the conflict allowed us to identify 4 main
stages of confrontation.
In the first phase (until 14 May
1948), the conflict was purely local.
Very difficult to determine the
specific subjects of confrontation,
because in each camp was set up
as a force for dialogue and
confrontation. In general, the
responsibility for the escalation at
this stage, in our view, should be
relatively equal split between the
parties. But it should also be noted
is inherently more prone to
compromise and peaceful setting
of the Jewish leaders (which is
embodied in public statements and
the Declaration of Independence)
The next stage lasted from the
beginning of the 1948 war at the
end of the 1973 war. This period
was the bloodiest confrontation,
and it is safe to call the kernel
confrontation. During these 25
years there have been five (!)
Full-scale military clashes. All of
them were won by Israel. War
were either started or in varying
degrees, provoked the Arab
states. During this period, there
was no systematic peace process
(except for the extremely rare
post-war peace negotiations).

9. The third phase of the conflict
(1973 to 1993) is characterized by
the beginning of the peace
process, and a string of strategic
negotiations and peace
agreements (Camp David, Oslo).
Here is part of the Arab states
have reversed their position and
went to the peace talks with
Israel. However, the positive
mood was somewhat
overshadowed by the 1982 war in
Lebanon.
Since 1994, dates back the current stage
of the conflict. Military confrontation
shifted to terrorism and anti - terrorist
operations. The peace process has
become systemic, but not completely
successful. Conflict resolution has
become an international problem that
involved in the process of peaceful
settlement of international mediators.
At this stage, all parties to the conflict
(except for some radical terrorist
groups) finally realized the need is
peaceful resolution of the conflict [2, c.
261-268].

10. Forecasts to development of the conflict
However, in our opinion, the conflict in the short term will be mainly
escalate. The main role in this disappointing scenario should play the
following factors:
- Hostile to Israel's nuclear program of Iran, the growing influence of
which will lead to a strengthening of the position of terrorist
organizations,
- Supported them (Hamas, Hezbollah);
- Actual dual power in Palestine at the absolute unwillingness of the
two centers of power (Hamas, Fatah) to compromise, making it
difficult to granting Palestinian sovereignty;
- Coming to power in Israel, right-wing forces led to a tightening of
the Israeli position;
- Unwillingness of radical Islamic groups to recognize the right of
Israel to exist, or at least refuse to terrorist activities;
- Deadlock in solving the problem of refugees, as none of the options
are not satisfied with both sides of the conflict;
- Depletion of water sources in the region. [3]

11. Conclusion
Throughout the paper, we have studied the history of the origins of the Arab-Israeli
conflict and its influence in the political and economic environment in our time.
Studying and analyzing this topic, we came to the following conclusions:
• The Middle East can be used in the Merchant motive and reason to the top
World civilizational war, the logical outcome of which could become a nuclear
confrontation between the superpowers
• After many wars between Israel and Arab countries, a host of humanitarian
problems, chief among which are the following:
• the problem of the Palestinian refugees and Israeli settlers
• the problem of political prisoners and prisoners of war
• the problem of the daily bombing of Israel and the Palestinian Authority
As well acquainted with the events in the Middle East, we offer a way out of
the situation in Palestine: Israel should withdraw from the Zionist policies and
to establish equality among all sections of the population that has solved the
problem of the Palestinian refugees. Also, Israel should return occupied in
1967 the Golan Heights to Syria, which belong to it under international law.
