By Omar KarmiJanuary 24, 2020 "Information
Clearing House" - Brace
yourselves, here it comes.
After years of mounting
excitement, the time is finally ripe.
The US administration is going to show its
hand and unveil the “closely-held” Ultimate
Deal of the Century™ before the main
contenders for Israel’s leadership go to
Washington on Tuesday.
Maybe.
It’s “a great plan,”
according to man-of-the-hour Donald
Trump, the US president, neatly dispelling
any complaints from moaning snowflakes who
keep harping on about rights and history and
justice and truth and sustainability and
blah, blah, blah.
But what exactly is this great plan?
According to Trump, it’s not what you’ve
read already.
What you may have
read already comes courtesy of unnamed
“senior Israeli officials.” According to
them, the plan will see Israel annex all of
Jerusalem as well as between 30-40 percent
of Area C of the West Bank (the 60 percent
of the West Bank already under full Israeli
control). This includes the Jordan Valley
and thus access to the outside world.
