    In 1982, a prominent Israeli strategic analyst, Avner Yaniv, coined the term “Palestinian peace offensive” to describe the risk that Palestinians would become too moderate politically and Israel would be forced to make concessions.

    He urged using the “fiercest military pressures” against the PLO in Lebanon to undermine Palestinian moderates and make the PLO more hardline in order “to halt its rise to political respectability”.
