US seeking goodwill gesture for Palestinians to offset annexation — report
Channel 12 news reporter Daphna Liel reports that the Trump administration is pushing Israel to offer the Palestinians some sort of goodie in exchange for annexing part of the land they want for their future state.
Among the ideas is transferring an area to the Palestinians where they can build without limit, or re-delineating some Area C lands as Area B, where Palestinians have civil control.
“If the right wing knew what the Americans wanted in exchange for annexation, they would be less enthusiastic,” she quotes a diplomatic source saying.
