Credit: Reuters/Uriel Sinai/Pool By Ari Rabinovitch JERUSALEM | Sun Nov 14, 2010 8:51am EST JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presented a U.S. plan to his cabinet on Sunday that would extend a freeze on West Bank settlements for 90 days in return for diplomatic and security incentives. Washington wants Israel to renew a freeze on settlement building in efforts to resume peace talks with Palestinians, who in September halted negotiations after just a few weeks when Israel refused to extend a 10-month settlement freeze. Under the U.S. proposal, if Israel extended the freeze Washington would pledge not to seek further extensions and to veto any attempts at the United Nations to force a unilateral peace settlement. U.S. security aid to Israel would also be upgraded. "I will insist that in any proposal Israel's security needs will be addressed, both in the immediate term and regarding the threats facing us in the coming decade," Netanyahu said in public comments before the cabinet meeting. The prime minister has previously said any settlement moratorium will not apply to areas around East Jerusalem that Israel captured during a 1967 war and the Palestinians want as the capital of a future state. One official in Netanyahu's office said the proposal had "positive elements." Israeli political sources said a narrow majority in Netanyahu's security cabinet, which is ultimately responsible, would likely support accepting the U.S. proposal. STILL NEGOTIATING Secretary of State Hillary Clinton shared the plan at a meeting in New York last week, Netanyahu said, adding that U.S. and Israeli teams were still negotiating a final formula. A spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said there had been no official word regarding a renewed Israeli freeze on housing starts in the occupied West Bank. "An official Palestinian commitment will come only after President Abbas hears officially from the American administration what is going on between them and the Israelis," Nabil Abu Rdainah told Reuters. Palestinian officials in private have expressed anger over U.S. incentives to get Israel to prolong the partial freeze, saying they were effectively bribing Israel to fulfill basic international obligations. Israeli officials said Netanyahu, who faces a tough political sell within his own coalition on the settlement issue, had pushed Clinton for the broad understandings. Settler leaders, who said acceptance of the proposal would represent "a fundamental collapse" of the government's integrity, called an emergency meeting to discuss the issue. Under the U.S. plan, Israel would declare a further, three month suspension of construction in the West Bank, land it captured in a 1967 war where Palestinians seek a state. Any building launched since the original moratorium ended late in September would be frozen, a diplomatic source said. 1 2 Next World United Nations Comments See All Comments (4) | Post Comment Nov 14, 2010 6:26am EST Disgusting. I’ve got an idea for a “U.S settlement plan” from my government to Israel: quit building settlements deemed illegal under international law or you don’t get your annual, undeserved, 3 billion tax dollars/year. Or I guess we could go with this plan. You know, the one where we tell them not to build and then Israel simultaneously embarrasses us with and ends peace talks with plans for new settlements. And then we offer them MORE prizes & goodies just to extend a freeze for settlements that shouldn’t be happening in the first place? Yeah no that makes complete sense. mosak Report As Abusive Nov 14, 2010 6:27am EST If it wasn’t so sad, this news would be hilarious! Not disregarding Israel’s right to defend itself: doesn’t the US basically already veto every vote that has to do with Israel in the UN? And now the freeze is maybe extended for 3 months! And after that period? And by the way, let’s sell them some warplanes, because our economy can use it. Hopefully one day a US president will be elected that has the will and the power to see that there are two peoples living in this one country, and that it’s immanent that both these peoples are free and secure, and not just one of them! Now it seems that the option of a complete relocation of all Palestinians is an option (to where?), or worse, the annihilation of the Palestinian people, is still being considered. Filesoof Report As Abusive Nov 14, 2010 8:46am EST Come ON!! Three -years- would be more like it!! It just seems that a three month freeze to settlement building will pass very quickly. As we recall that these peace negotiations are not likely to be finished in just three months time. Not likely at all. Let’s be more realistic. If this is such an important point to the Palestinians to re-start talks then let’s be realistic about the time extention. Come on, Three years would be more like it. (You know, three years may not be long enough with the potential difficulties of these negotiations). (First of all, the Israeli’s probably have a point that there is plenty of land in the region to build/ for both sides to do all of the settlement building that they want). (I don’t think the Palestinian’s see that just now). (I’ve heard there’s plenty of mountain sides for building settlements). MissouriRick Report As Abusive Nov 14, 2010 9:22am EST Obama may have the best intentions, but his approach to Middle East policy is looking sadder and weaker by the day. The fact is that the USA alone is strong enough to arm and support Israel, but too weak to restrain it and get it to “obey”. It’s the classical story of the Pitbull and its owner. The only way forward for Obama is to get support from EU, Arab League and BRICs in isolating Israel. The way apartheid SA was isolated. Stop trade, stop $$ support, stop all kinds of cultural and economic reciprocity (e.g., Israeli herbs from WB settlements in UK supermarkets); and you will see that Israel will head to the so-called “International Community”. The USA alone has become irrelevant at the world stage (even China can stand-up to the 20th century world power now). cerniagigante Report As Abusive See All Comments (4) Add a Comment *We welcome comments that advance the story directly or with relevant tangential information.
