The 2008/ 2009 Gaza War was one of the most crucial battles that the Palestinian resistance engaged in, since 1948. Its outstanding performance, though with limited capabilities, was a center of focus for those interested in the Palestinian issue. - The Gaza War was detrimental to the people and infrastructure of Gaza and had a divisive impact on the regional relations, especially among Arab states. - During this war, Arab states split into two camps, the “Moderate Camp” led by Egypt and the “Defiant Camp” led by Syria. The Egyptian and Syrian responses to the war epitomized those of two camps. This study analyses the foreign policy responses of these two states, with respect to some internal and external factors. -
