Summary / Abstract (Note) | In proposing a plan for a resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, U.S. President Donald J.Trump’s team announced that they wanted to think outside the box, come up with something new. In itself that was not a bad idea: Given that everything in the past has failed, why not look for something new? Unfortunately, however, ignoring all past negotiations also apparently meant ignoring all the issues and possible solutions as well. It would appear that the authors of the new plan knew very little of the demands each side has made in the past, the progress made (when there was progress) to date, the ground already covered, and proposals worth examining. That is putting it kindly. |
