After weeks of public attention about new, liberal proposals for an Israel-Palestinian peace accord, right-wing members of the Likud governing party and settler leaders revealed they are developing their own plan to end three years of violence. It calls for annexing the territories and offering Palestinians Israeli citizenship but no state of their own.

Sounds more like legitimized apartheid to me. No equal representation? No reparations? Bah. Wouldn’t fly in a million years.
