Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine opposed the Oslo Accords from the outset; their charters do not recognise Israel's right to exist.
The Accords meant that Palestine would remain indefinitely subservient to Israel.
Israelis continued to build checkpoints, settlements and the Separation Wall in the West Bank contrary to the spirit, if arguably not the letter of the Oslo Accords. Thousands of Palestinian prisoners remain in Israeli jails, many without charge in "administrative detention". Many Palestinians now believe that Israel deliberately used the Oslo Accords as a cover for colonial expansion, while continuing to engage in fruitless negotiations.
