One of my pet theories is actually that the growing use of nonviolent civil disobedience, boycotts, labor strikes and tax resistance tactics, during the First Intifada, were the primary reason that the Israeli government effectively brought the PLO back in from exile in order to serve as counterpart for the Oslo accords and to manage the PA: when put to it, they needed a conventionally political and paramilitary organization that they could make treaties with, manage and control as necessary; whereas the leaderless resistance and the use of non-compliance and economic tactics, in the occupied territories was rapidly spinning out into something fundamentally unmanageable. The presence of a traditional political entity was necessary to co-opt it, and thus ultimately make it possible to manage and contain it.
