Netanyahu, Lieberman and Kahlon all want to negotiate the TSS

By Ted Belman

Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon (Kulanu) on Saturday called on opposition leader Yitzhak Herzog to join the coalition, telling Channel 2 News in an interview, “At the end of the process there will be two states for two peoples here.”

Earlier he had said “The rumors and talk of a meaningful diplomatic process in our area have a much greater basis than some newspapers suggest. There is the possibility of a significant turnaround on the regional level,”

He also suggested that Lieberman and Netanyahu agree.

There is nothing to suggests that the Arabs are prepared for “painful concessions” so why go down that path except if it is to eat up time until Obama leaves office.

The possibility of Sherman’s humanitarian solution, (compensated Arab emigration), being implemented is low to nil so the next best alternative is Bennett’s plan of annexing Area C. Even with this plan, I don’t see international support or even US support so we would have to go it alone and do it unilaterally. Or perhaps, annex all the settlement blocs. Such an action would violate the Oslo accords necessitating the annexation of Area C.

This could be combined with the Jordanian option.

On Saturday Bennett said in an interview on Meet the Press:

“We will take down the government over anything that would lead to a division of the Land of Israel and the creation of a Palestinian state. We will fight it,”

“There will be no Palestinian state here. I will do anything to stop it,” “We are in a government whose basic principles include no Palestinian state. As long as we are here, there will not be a Palestinian state along Highway 6, five minutes from Kfar Saba, and there will be no division of Jerusalem.”

  1. Probe ordered into PM over donation by accused French fraudster

    Arnaud Mimran tells court he gave campaign 1 million euros, breaking finance laws. Netanyahu denies wrongdoing, but A-G to decide whether to open criminal check

    One of the most dramatic moments in the trial was when Mimran took to the witness stand and declared that he had given Netanyahu 1 million euros. According to a report in French journal Mediapart, Mimran was being grilled on the witness stand over a dozen trips he took to Israel at the height of the scam, in 2009.

    Didnt sharon give away gaza when the long arm of the law was getting closer. I expect that foreign intelligence services know a lot more, with evidence, about Israeli leaders…. such info can get folks to do odd things.

  3. New Paradigm for long term peace and stability for Israel

    If you want peace it is time to forget being politically correct and proportional in fighting Palestinian terrorism. It is time to be determined to win the conflict and not just say the conflict will continue forever. It is not acceptable that every few months or years that Palestinians shoot rockets at Israelis, blow up bombs, kidnap children or resort to other forms of violence against Jews in Israel.
    Two states in the Land of Israel west of the River Jordan is a formula for war not peace. The Palestinian (Arabs) have for 100 years not accepted the permanent presence of the Jews.

    Israel has a legal, historical and moral right to the land of Israel west of the Jordan River.

    1. However, except for a small amount of people on the right Israelis do not want to incorporate large amounts of Arabs into Israel. The public does not want a bi-national state
    2. To be able to buy Arabs properties and facilitate their peaceful emigration (buying them out) the terrorists must be jailed, deported or killed otherwise they will exact revenge on the families of those leaving or those leaving before they actually leave. They have a death sentence for selling properties to Jews.
    Once you accomplish number 2 above an NGO working with the government should start enacting an humane assisted program of Arab emigration starting with East Jerusalem and Arab villages in Area C near Jewish Towns. Learn as you go and what problems come up. This will be fraught with problems imagined and not imagined. Just like a franchiser learns by first working on a few locations before expanding widely.
    Annex Area C. Help the Arabs there emigrate.
    Register the people there. Ask do you want to stay and demonstrate loyalty to the Jewish Democratic State of Israel.
    This will require learning Hebrew; your children will be required to provide civil national service at age 18 to 20.
    You will be required to inform on anyone planning terrorist acts including family members. This will be a condition of residency!
    If after 10 years of residency they wish to apply for citizenship they may. There then will be at least a two year period to investigate if they have successfully fulfilled the requirements of residency prior to bestowing citizenship. If they and their immediate family have met the conditions citizenship can be bestowed upon them.
    Once Israel has successfully integrated Area C it can then work on Areas A and B. Unless you can be sure you know how to successfully help Arabs emigrate overseas and integrate others why would anyone in their right mind make the approximately 1,500,000 Arabs (of Area A/B in Judah & Samaria) Israeli residents yet alone citizens. This is a terrorist’s dream, to be able to freely travel all over Israel with an Israeli ID card.
    Walk before you run and go step by step in this super risky proposition of incorporating a massive amount of Arabs into the State of Israel. If you can be highly confident that you can help large amounts of Arabs emigrate then you could start annexing parts of Area A (a City at at a time). Israel should NOT bring an Arab Trojan Horse into Zion. If you can NOT make sure a large amount of Arabs will emigrate, not do annex these areas and make these people residents

  4. What all who talk about two solutions and negotiating fail to talk about is that the strongest Palestinian group is Hamas. Other terror groups like Islamic Jihad are their allies. None of them are willing to negotiate anything. I do not understand why the Israeli government does not mention this first and foremost every time someone brings up the flawed two state concept. Bibi has said occasional but not enough. He asks what happens the day after we withdraw.

    If you make a deal and the IDF withdraws from PA areas and brings down the roadblocks and/or abandons land you have a replay of Gaza in short order and much worse because it close to the major Israeli population centers and the airport. Mortars, Rockets, and suicide bombers in short order. We would have war in short time and a lot of death and destruction.

    I propose that Israel use a combination of Bennett’s plan with Sherman plan as a long term solution. I will post this below.
