In its annual strategic survey, the Institute for National Security Studies, Israel’s leading security think tank, has published a plan to redraw the map of the West Bank in an effort to consolidate major settlements and prevent the spread of others. The plan was presented earlier this month to Israeli President Reuven Rivlin. The plan calls for the government to allow construction in West Bank settlement blocs and Jerusalem – while, at the same time, halt construction in the 90 percent of the territory outside the major settlement blocks. The authors of the plan argued that negotiations with the Palestinians are unlikely to lead to a final-status agreement any time soon, and with negotiations deadlocked, they warn, Israel is drifting toward a single binational state with the Palestinians, which threatens its democratic and possibly Jewish identity.
