Fighting over the Image: The Israeli − Palestinian Conflict in the Gaza Strip 2018 − 19

פורסם ב: Studies in Conflict and Terrorism
תיאור: The current paper analyzes the recent wave of violence in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, and especially the occurrences on the Gazan border since March 2018, from a less covered point of view–the battle over the image and narrative. The Palestinians’ main tools of resistance during this wave of violence have been civilian protests near the fence and the launching of explosive kites and balloons across the border–causing massive damage to Israeli agriculture. We argue that the Palestinians had waged a sophisticated Image War on the border of Gaza, and while they are performing, the world is watching. © 2020, © 2020 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
