The Palestinian leader must have known what the likely consequences of this were going to be.On the other hand, he did not have much choice. Mr Arafat’s ability to survive political disasters is due to the fact that he never moves far from the mainstream of Palestinian public opinion. Over the last year there were no suicide attacks for two reasons: Hamas was savagely repressed by Mr Arafat’s security men, and ordinary Palestinians were against more bombs After Har Homa this changed. Danny Rubenstein, an acute observer of Palestinian politics for the daily Haaretz, says: “It wasn’t Arafat who gave Hamas the green light, but the broad public in the West Bank and Gaza, which urged Hamas to take action.”This means that the Palestinian leader’s position is stronger than it looks. If anything goes wrong – and Gaza and the West Bank are currently sealed off by Israel, crippling their economies – then it will be because of policies that most Palestinians supported. Mr Arafat’s position is also sustained by a certain balance of power, though deeply unstable, between Israel and the Palestinians.
Israel clearly has military superiority, but after the start of the Intifada in 1987 it had difficulty in holding on to the occupied territories in the face of Palestinian resistance. Israeli desire to end this confrontation produced the Oslo accords.Once its troops had left most of Gaza and the main population centres of the West Bank in 1994-95, Israel had no choice but to rely on Mr Arafat for its security. The only alternative would be to reinvade the Palestinian enclaves. But this would mean a much wider war, with heavy Israeli casualties. There is no consensus for such a prolonged confrontation in Israel. Mr Netanyahu did not win the election last year by promising to tear up Oslo.
Instead his winning slogan was “peace with security”, and a pledge to voters that this could be achieved without substantial territorial concessions to the Palestinians.Many of Mr Netanyahu’s problems stem from his attempt to deliver on his electoral promises. He says that he will not accept a Palestinian state, but envisages something more on the lines of Andorra (this ignores the fact that Mr Arafat already has 40,000 men under arms). This Palestinian state of Andorra will be a peculiar place, capable of stopping everybody from Hamas suicide bombers to rioting schoolboys, but otherwise happy to exist within the boundaries of impoverished cantons, bisected by Israeli settlements and roads.The previous Israeli government realised that they could not have their cake and eat it Mr Arafat was never going to be their tame policeman Nor would he have lived very long if he had tried. Optimists in Jerusalem comfort themselves with the thought that Mr Netanyahu has no alternative to Oslo.
They are probably right, but there is little sign that he knows that. Instead he has stopped the peace process at a fatal half-way house so neither Israel nor the Palestinians fully control the West Bank. And as friction between the two increases, the way has inevitably opened for the return of the suicide bomber.. There was a glimpse yesterday of a different, older, grander, Conservatism. The bright young suits at Central Office admit freely to having echoed their predecessors of a generation ago with a souped-up version of the slogan which helped Harold Macmillan to a landslide in 1959 “Britain is booming. Don’t let Labour blow it,” is a conscious translation into Saatchi-ese of “Life’s better under the Conservatives.
Don’t let Labour ruin it.”
The 1997 slogan is not risk-free. It uses a dangerous word; research shows that some voters, invited to free associate about the word “boom” in the manner of TV game shows, automatically come up with “bust”. It requires the same electors who were told that the recession was caused by world factors beyond the control of the British government to believe that the recovery is entirely of that same government’s making. It starkly exposes the fact that the tax argument isn’t what it was in 1992: the Tories cannot promise to reduce the overall tax burden in the lifetime of the next Parliament any more than Labour can.
