Operace Lité olovo a její mezinárodní souvislosti

My thesis are firstly concerning the historical development of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in order to be able evaluate properly the Operation Cast Lead, its effects and impact on the further evolution of the Palestinian-Israeli relations. In this part, I focus on the preferable forms of the conflict solution (two-state solution, bi-national/one-state solution, three states solution with independent state of Israel, Gaza annexed to Egypt and the West Bank in federation with Jordan, or possible economic peace). Besides that, I pay attention to the international actors who were involved in the conflict (solution). Afterwards, I am describing the Operation in detail, its flow and impact on the positioning of other countries and international society as whole towards the conflict. As the end, I am offering my proposal of conflict resolution with its positives and strengths, at the same time I am demonstrating the disadvantages and critics of other possible solutions. Moreover, I am suggesting the criteria for the choice of potential mediators (after the historical evaluation). As conclusion, I argue, that the operation targeted at getting rid of the terrorist leaders is not sustainable solution to this conflict and therefore it is necessary to look deeper for long-term solutions leading to the peace on the Middle East.
