Trends in Israeli-Palestinian Political Fatalities, 1987-1999

Compiled from a Washington Institute database, this statistical analysis examines trends in Israeli and Palestinian deaths related to political violence from the beginning of the intifada in December 1987 through the end of Binyamin Netanyahu's premiership in July 1999. The study analyzes the incidents and resulting fatalities by their total number, their cause of death, their location, and the groups or individuals responsible for them. It also compares fatality rates across three Israeli administrations, as well as before and after the 1993 signing of the Declaration of Principles.
