Topic #5 This paper asks you to compare two very long running campaigns of terrorist violence: Palestinian violence against Israel and insurgent terrorism in Kashmir. In both cases the violence has persisted so long that different groups have entered the picture, each claiming to represent their communities and as a result the overall political cause seems to have been lost. The violence now seems to be self-perpetuating, or at least to serve different ends—the ends of different groups within each political community rather than of the communities as whole. With this in mind, answer the following in a well-argued essay: Are the various Palestinian groups fighting Israel for the purpose of Palestinian statehood and the jihadi groups fighting in Kashmir truly fighting for the political communities they claim to represent, or do they have different motives? If so, what kind of agenda are these groups serving now? To what extent have they lost sight of their political goals and instead become bogged down in inter-group rivalries or criminal activities? Have other actors such as state governments hijacked or redirected the terrorists’ violence? What do these outside actors hope to achieve, and how do these goals compare with those of the people of Kashmir and Palestine?
For the Palestinian dimension, see background in Law and the PowerPoint, then draw details on various groups/factions from Harold Cubert’s chapter “The PFLP’s Role and Position within the PLO,” Ch. 5 of Byman, Robin Wright’s “The Palestinians,” and Ch. 2 of Stern. For Kashmir, see Stern (Chs. 5 and 8) and Byman (Ch. 6). If the violence of these groups has become disconnected from its political goals, how does one deal with it? What can be done to solve the problem of terrorist violence in these two areas?

These papers are meant to help you integrate the readings, lecture material, Carmen resources, and your own thoughts in written form. They are called reaction papers because they are designed to help you work through the readings on your own, to allow you to think about and react to what you have read, and then to use lecture material to tie the readings together in the form of a persuasive written argument. They are not formal research papers, so as long as you adhere to the basic guidelines discussed below, and, given that your spelling and grammar are correct, and your language use is not too colloquial, you have some stylistic liberty. You may use the first person if that helps you to express your argument more effectively. When citing the readings, a simple parenthetical reference (Author, page #), rather than a full, formal footnote or endnote is sufficient.
Papers must be typed, double-spaced, no less than 2, no longer than 3 pages in length, with reasonable fonts (10-12 point) and margins (1 inch). The purpose of page limits is to ensure that all students have the same amount of space with which to develop their thoughts; you can think of the page limit as being similar to a time limit on an in-class exam. If you choose to write a shorter paper, that is certainly your right; however, I must ensure that all papers are held to the same standard of length for reasons of consistency. Therefore, please be careful that you do not exceed the limit; the absolute maximum limit for a paper is 1200 words.
