Netanyahu's 'Two-State Solution' Plan: More Settlements, Less State
The New Arab details Israel’s Atarot settlement plan, designed to sever north Jerusalem from the West Bank, effectively cementing the fragmentation of Palestinian territory. This isn't groundbreaking news; rather, it’s a replay of a familiar script. For instance, after the 1993 Oslo Accords, the number of Israeli settlers in the West Bank and Gaza doubled, from approximately 280,000 to over
500,000 within two decades. This 'peace process' has consistently been a land-grab euphemism. While the world issues its periodic tut-tuts, the reality is that the US continues to funnel billions in aid. According to OpenSecrets.org, AIPAC and its related committees spent over $17.8 million in the 2022 election cycle alone, influencing votes for politicians who then rubber-stamp these 'breaches of
international law' with financial backing. How many times can a 'two-state solution' be systematically dismantled before we admit it was never the plan to begin with? It appears the only solution on the table is 'more settlement, less Palestine.'
