The negotiating partner has to show that it`s capable of controlling its militants, otherwise the agreement isn`t worth much.(example: Fatah signs agreement while Hamas and Islamic Jihad keep shooting) Also, violence during negotiations serves as an intimidation factor aimed at influencing the direction and results of the negotiation. The acceptable limit of violence of individual nut cases is at the discretion of the parties.
