Abstract

The Palestinians have adopted the method of popular resistance in all phases of the Palestinian struggle. This method was readopted in Gaza through starting the Great March of Return on March 30, 2018. The study aims to better understand the context in which the idea of the March emerged, realize its importance and objectives, and recognize its strengths and weaknesses. That will be achieved through addressing two claims: 1) Principles and General Policies, 2) and Results and Challenges; with a conclusion at the end. In this study, the researcher follows the survey methodology, benefiting for his personal observations, following the readable and visual media tools, and analysing documents. The study concludes that the Great March of Return is a popular and national work, and an old method of struggle against the Israeli occupation. It also emphasized to the Israeli occupation, the USA and the entire world that the resettlement of the refugee's plans are absolutely rejected by the Palestinians. Moreover, it succeeded in attracting the Palestinian people coming from different religious, political and cultural backgrounds.
