Aside from the fact that Clinton's plan flies in the face of previous agreements and given Netanyahu's delaying tactics, it is hardly a fair compromise. Given Netanyahu's foot-dragging tactics of delaying, however, the Israelis will surely find a dozen pretexts not to withdraw. If Netanyahu does pull out the first time, he will surely find a dozen excuses to stall the second time. And so on. At the same time, it must be said that the plan is distressingly similar to what Netanyahu actually wants.
Simple calculation proves it.
Please note too that Netanyahu insists on cancelling the third redeployment phase. It would appear that Clinton has brought Netanyahu's argument of coalition constraints that, the premier claims, make him unable to offer anything but the most minimal gestures preceded by the most far-fetched demands. Any pullout would be small and only on condition that Arafat fulfils security obligations and revises the PLO charter. The bulk of the West Bank will remain in Israeli hands ahead of final status talks. Netanyahu has imposed such stringent conditions on an eventual modest redeployment that it is clear he has no intention of actually implementing them.
