The Event

Many Israeli supporters are nervous over the upcoming attempt in September to announce a Palestinian state at the United Nations. As negotiations with Israel have broken down the Arab side seeks unilateral recognition of a state in all of Judea and Samaria that came under Israeli military control in the 1967 six day war.

There is little to worry about.
The entrance of Palestine to the league of nations at the UN will have little effect on the ground, if any at all. Those who believed that negotiations could bridge or solve any problems may be disappointed. Those who never believed in the viability of such talks are not surprised.
It’s a paper tiger this threat of the Palestinians and no more.
What might happen the day after the announcement?

1. All Palestinian police cars will be off limits on Roads in Judea and Samaria
2. Serious rioting in different places in Judea and Samaria
3. Israel starting the process of annexation of large parts of Judea and Samaria
It’s only a few months away

Should be interesting.
