2. This cursory account of the political developments since 1967 is based, unless otherwise stated, on: Krämer; Rogan; Shindler, History. Arafat and Fatah: Rogan 343–53; Hussein recognition of PLO to West Bank 378; First Intifada, Hamas and Nusseibeh and Faisal Husseini roles 429–37 and 465–7; Netanyahu settlements 476; Second Intifada 478–9. PLO years: Achcar 211–31. Pappe: Arafat 337 and 351 (Husseini connection); Faisal al-Husseini 348–9.

On peace talks: Shlomo Ben-Ami, Scars of War, Wounds of Peace, on Sadat and Begin 146–71; the Oslo talks and Arafat on Jerusalem 247–84.
