Makovsky traces key episodes prior to the breakthrough in Oslo, including Israel's deportation of radical Islamicactivists in December 1992 and its retaliation against Hizbollah rocket attacks from south Lebanon in July 1993, and examines their impact on the fateful decisions that led to the remarkable diplomatic achievement.
