The Israeli–Palestinian conflict (2015) (known as "The Wave of Terror" by Israelis〔()〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=חדשות - צבא וביטחון nrg - ...איך בולמים את גל הטרור בחמישה )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Jewish Press »» Has the "Wave of Terror" Waned? )〕 and also called "Knife Intifada" by international media) refers to a series of events starting from early September 2015, related to tensions between Palestinians and Israelis regarding the status of the Temple Mount. A major escalation occurred at 1 October with the killing of Eitam and Na'ama Henkin, an Israeli couple who were shot by Hamas militants near Beit Furik, followed by daily stabbing assaults by "lone wolf" Palestinians, and other attacks by Palestinian terror cells, mainly in the contested Old City of Jerusalem and East Jerusalem,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=‘Al-Quds Intifada’ has started and flames will not be quenched )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=PressTV-Jordanians urge end to Israeli ties )〕 sparking fears of a Third Intifada.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url = http://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/fear-of-a-third-intifada )〕 Commentators have variously analyzed the phenomenon as the consequence of either a viral social-media campaign that may have influenced and motivated the Palestinian attackers, or as a result of frustration over the failure of peace talks to end the decades-long occupation and the suppression of human rights.〔Greg Botelho, Ed Payne, ('New security measures considered amid continuing violence in Israel,' ) CNN News:'Whatever the label, some Palestinians insist they are fed up with the status quo."We've tried negotiations and it didn't work," a Palestinian youth in the West Bank city of Hebron told CNN as thick smoke rose from flaming tires. "So now we will fight.".'〕〔('Young Palestinians sound off on current unrest, Israeli occupation,' ) Al Jazeera 14 October 2015.〕 Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has been accused of incitement to violence. The mayor of Jerusalem Nir Barkat encouraged "licensed gun owners to carry their weapons to increase security."〔 During October, at least 68 Palestinians, were killed by Israel military and border police forces, 43 of whom were identified by the IDF as attackers in incidents such as stabbing, vehicular and gun attacks, though the interpretation of some of these incidents as 'terrorist' attacks has been questioned. In the same month, according to the Palestine Red Crescent Society, Israeli operations aimed at suppressing or dispersing demonstrations and protests in many of which stones, rocks and Molotov cocktails are thrown, injured an estimated 8,262 Palestinians, 2,617 by gun wounds, 760 by live fire, 1,857 by rubber-coated steel bullets.〔('Red Crescent: Over 2,600 shot with live, rubber bullets in October,' ) Ma'an News Agency 1 November 2015.〕 On the other hand, the Palestinian Ministry of Health reported on November 9 that 3,000+ Palestinians have been injured, of them 1248 Palestinians have been shot with live army rounds and 1808 have been shot with rubber-coated steel bullets; 1008 of them required hospitalization and 800 received treatment by field medics. As of 1 November 817 violent demonstrations occurred as well as 851 stone throwing and 377 molotov cocktail incidents, in which one Israeli was killed. == Background == The Second Intifada broke out after a visit by Prime Minister Ariel Sharon to the Temple Mount in September 2000. His appearance, accompanied by several hundreds guards, was seen by Palestinians as highly provocative; Palestinian demonstrators, throwing stones at police, were dispersed by the Israeli army, using tear gas and rubber bullets. In less than a week, 47 Palestinians were killed, and 1,885 were wounded as Israeli forces used well over a 1,000,000 rounds to quell demonstrations and riots.〔 See under "What Happened?".〕 This uprising, unlike the First Intifada, adopted, among many other measures, the technique of suicide bombings in Israeli buses, restaurants, cafes and shopping malls. Jerusalem was the main target for the bombings. The violence reached a peak in 2002, at which point Israel decides to construct the Israeli West Bank barrier and Israel–Gaza barrier, as well as launch Operation Defensive Shield. Opinions differ as to the reasons for the cycle of violence. According to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Palestinian opposition to Zionism is grounded in genocidal, Nazi-style anti-Semitism, and he cites the behavior of the father of Palestinian nationalism, Amin al-Husseini, for this thesis. The highest echelons of the Israeli Defense Forces disagree: while not excluding a hatred of Jews as a motivational factor, several generals have gone on public record as stating that to a notable degree Palestinian violence is impelled anger at, and revenge for, Israeli actions, and that frustrations over the stagnation of diplomatic initiatives also contribute.〔J.J. Goldberg http://forward.com/opinion/323817/idf-does-not-agree-with-netanyahu-on-roots-of-palestinian-violence/?attribution=author-article-listing-3-headline 'Israel's Top Generals Split With Benjamin Netanyahu on Roots of Terror Wave,' The Forward 3 November 2015.〕 A report by Israeli intelligence services states that the unrest is motivated by Palestinian "feelings of national, economic and personal deprivation."〔Gili Cohen, ('Shin Bet: Feelings of Discrimination Driving Palestinian Youth Toward Terror ,' ) Haaretz 11 November 2015.〕 This period has also seen the increasing prevalence of Jewish "price tag" operations, such as the arson attack that killed three members of the Dawabsheh family in the West Bank village of Duma about two months ago. According to ''The Guardian'', many analysts regard the issue of access to what is known to Muslims as al-Haram al-Sharif, or the Noble Sanctuary, and to Jews as the Temple Mount, as key to the recent increase in tension. A campaign by some fundamentalist Jews and their supporters, with the backing of some members of the Israeli cabinet, demanding greater rights for Jewish worship at the site has raised the suspicion, despite repeated Israeli denials, that Israel intends to change the 'precarious status quo' for the site. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Israeli–Palestinian conflict (2015)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
