Not unlike Hong Kong (which under the one-country, two-systems formula continues to fly its own flag), the unique situation in Xinjiang calls for dramatic and creative solutions. The future of this region, which the American sinologist Owen Lattimore once called the ‘pivot of Asia,’ depends on it.

Trump Administration

The 2017 inauguration of Donald Trump as the U.S. president opened a new chapter in U.S. policy making toward the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Several developments that have taken place under the Trump Administration mark a clear rupture from the Oslo Accords in favor of support for Israeli plans to annex a large fraction of the West Bank and design a new settlement of the conflict according to its interests. While the U.S. policy toward the Palestinian issue is not radically different under Trump, he does break from former presidents in that he overtly indicates a sharp pro-Israel tilt and has been more transparent about the U.S. position in the conflict. In this context, in light of the developments that have taken place in the last three years, this article aims to investigate the main pillars of the U.S. foreign policy toward the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and to analyze how far the Trump Administration’s policies toward the conflict indicate a shift from those of his predecessors. It also offers some insights into the future of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by providing three prospective scenarios and discussing their repercussions.

The Future

الخلاصة تتناول هذه الورقة مخططات وسياسات الاستيطان في الضفة الغربية والقدس الشرقية منذ العام 1967، عبر سياسات قادها حزب العمل وأكملها حزب الليكود وكاديما وبقية الأحزاب الإسرائيلية، تلك السياسات التي استهدفت فرض السيطرة السياسية الكاملة على الأرض، وما نتج عن ذلك من سيطرة حصرية على الأرضوتقييد استخداماتها، ومحاصرة الوجود الفلسطيني والتضييق عليه، وتحويل مراكز العمران الفلسطيني إلى بقع معزولة ومحاصرة، وتقطيع التواصل الجغرافي الفلسطيني، في الوقت الذي يتم فيه تكثيف ووصل التجمعات الاستيطانية اليهودية، وتزويدها بكافة أسباب النمو والتطور، ثم ضمها في وقت لاحق لإسرائيل، تلك المخططات والسياسات التي تقوض بلا شك أية مقومات أو شروط لإقامة الدولة فلسطينية المستقبلية على الأراضي الفلسطينية المحتلة. تنبع أهمية الورقة في تبيانها لمدى خطوة الاستيطان على مستقبل الدولة الفلسطينية في الأراضي المحتلة، خاصة في ظل عملية التسوية السلمية، وبالقدر الذي مثلت فيه تلك العملية أملا للشعب الفلسطيني في استرداد حقوقه وإقامة دولته المستقلة، إلا أن سلطات الاحتلال استغلتها للتغطية على جرائمها وانتهاكاتها في الأراضي المحتلة وفي مقدمتها زيادة معدلات الاستيطان والتهويد والسيطرة على مزيد من الأراضي الفلسطينية وهو ما بات يهدد على نحو خطير مستقبل الدولة الفلسطينية، تلك الدولة التي يرتهن مستقبلها بمستقبل هذا الاستيطان وجودا وعدماً.

East Jerusalem

The chapter explains the launch of the Israeli settlement project in Gaza and the West-Bank (Including East-Jerusalem) following Israel’s occupation of these regions in the 1967 Six-Day War. The chapter uses the theory advanced in the book and shows that Israel launched the settlement project in order to secure permanent territorial expansion into these areas. Israel believed that the future of these areas will be determined in a negotiation within the framework of UNSCR 242. The settlement project was meant to affect the outcome of these future talks. The chapter identifies the conditions for the launch of the project: US support and a legal ambiguity regarding the status of these areas, American support, and an institutional capacity to carry out such a project. The local population’s low level of affinity with Israel further contributed to the launch of the project.

The Future

The radical closure of Gaza serves here as an extreme example of a process of isolation and immiseration of national enemies that is deeply rooted in Israeli ideology and practices of state formation. I use encystation to reveal the dual meaning of the term—that of radical isolation of diseased elements and that of protecting a fetus within a womb—and to show how the two meanings connect with respective Israeli policies toward Palestinians and Jews. I suggest in closing that the Oslo Accords have put in place mechanisms for the future imposition on West Bank Palestinians of the same containment currently afflicting Gaza.*

To Come

Half a decade after the Six-Day War the Israeli government has made no decision about the future of the West Bank. The elections held in the West Bank's towns in early 1972, but under Jordanian law, were one example of the Jerusalem cabinet's inability to come to any decision and its determination to postpone decision for as long as possible. This determination reflects the complexity of the problem per se and the deep divisions within the Israeli polity on this subject. We will focus on the internal Israeli aspect.
