Abstract:
The main goal of this research paper is to examine the core role of popular nonviolent
resistance in transforming the Israeli Palestinian conflict through all available peaceful means.
We have deeply gone through different definitions of nonviolence as an international concept
and we explored the various historical stages and prominent stations of this type of nonviolence.
To elaborate more on this goal, we can say that the strategic aim is to bridge the gap between
theories and approaches of conflict transformations and the current study of peaceful resistance.
Nonviolence is one strategic options for the Palestinians if we realize that the political alternatives and narrow and limited. Methodology adopted in this research is primarily qualitative with
analytical and empirical connotations and implications, we relied on both primary and secondary
data to reach the final results and conclusions. As far the final findings are concerned, this paper
concluded that there is a gap between nonviolence peaceful resistance in the field in one hand
and the decision makers on the other hand. There is a gap those who practiced or who embraced
nonviolence as strategic resistance and those who put political goals and practiced political leadership. There is a lack of a proper understanding
of peaceful nonviolent resistance and its role in
liberating and emancipating Palestine from the
occupation
