Résumé:A Struggle Behind the Scenes. The Confrontation Between the Bush Administration and the Shamir Government (1991-1992)In the early 1990s the G. Bush administration and the nationalist Israeli government headed by Itzhak Shamir traded barbs on the issue of colonies in the occupied territories, which the U.S. diplomacy regarded as an obstacle to peace negotiations. In this article, the author explains how far the confrontation went, as well as the limits of what an administration intent on promoting the American interest even at the expense of a confrontation with Israel could actually achieve. This crisis is relevant to understand the current behavior of the Obama administration towards the Benyamin Netanyahu coalition.
