Oslo Accords - The acceptance of the accords by the two peoples
The accords aroused in the two peoples, the Israeli and the Palestinian, a wave of hope to end the violence, but not everyone participated in this hope.
In Israel, a hard argument developed around the accords. Opposing the support of the left wing, there was strong resistance from the right wing. After a two day discussion in the Knesset on the government proclamation in the issue of the accord and the exchange of the letters, on September 23, 1993 a vote of confidence was held in which 61 Knesset members voted for the decision, 50 voted against and 8 abstained.
The Palestinian reactions to the accords were not homogeneous, either. The Fatah accepted the accords, but the Hamas, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, which were known as the "refusal organizations", objected to the accords since they completely denounced Israel's right to exist, refusing to recognize what they dubbed the "Zionist entity". Their resistance was expressed in their acts of terror.
On both sides there were fears of the other side's intentions. Israelis suspected that the Palestinians were not sincere in their desire to reach peace and coexistence with Israel, but relate to that as part of the Ten Point Program (which is called in Israel Tokhnit HaSHlavim or Torat HaSHlavim). For evidence they brought expressions of Yasser Arafat in Palestinian forums in which he compared the accord to the Khodeyba agreement that the prophet Muhammad signed with the sons of the tribe of Quraish. Those expressions could be understood also as an attempt to justify the signing of the accords in accordance with historical-religious precedent, but also as hinting to dishonesty of the intentions, since this agreement which was signed to 10 years was violated by Muhammad after a year and a half , after much provocation and violations of the terms of the truce by the Quraish. The Israelis trust in the accord was undermined also by the fact that after the signing of the accord the terrorist attacks against Israel did not cease and even intensified, which could be explained as an attempt of the terror organizations to thwart the peace process.
On the other hand, the murder of the 29 Muslims while praying in the Cave of the Patriarchs by Barukh Goldshteyn (which was accompanied by killing of other residents by IDF forces in the bedlam which surrounded the event) destabilized the Palestinians' trust in the process. Also, the expansion of the settlements and blockades which caused the deterioration of economic conditions caused frustration and a corresponding descent in support for the accord and those who stood behind its ratification.
