Talk:Israeli views on the peace process

Nice article indeed! I just wonder whether, the Palestinian view of the Israeli stance for peace process(es) should be mentioned here, similarly as Israeli stance is menyioned in the article "Palestinian views of the peace process in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict". Thanks for you feedback in advance!

bias, reliance on two authors
why are there basically only two authors on this page? I truly think this whole page is worthless and by default POV because they are not true "views," they are simply how someone else characterizes someone else's views. I think this article should be deleted.67.243.9.128 (talk) 00:55, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

The old October 2007 template should be removed. Outdated. If someone still has any issues, let them bring it on to the talk page. 2409:4073:2199:627A:71:D032:980:FB0 (talk) 13:07, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

Numerous errors
This text states the "Its outcome however was a deadlock and a rejection by Arafat of Barak's offer which offered most of Arafat's demands", however, Wikipedia on the Camp David accords disagrees: "Although the official statements stated that both parties had accepted the Clinton Parameters with reservations, these reservations in fact meant that the parties had rejected the parameters on certain essential points. On 2 January 2001, the Palestinians put forward their acceptance with some fundamental objections. Barak accepted the parameters with a 20-page letter of reservations."

The section on Oslo omits to mention that Israel failed to hold to her obligation to turn over Area C to the Palestinians by October 1997.

The section on Netanyahu should state that he boasted of "destroying" the Oslo accords. It should also include his various statements denying a Palestinian state ("Benjamin Netanyahu’s incoming hard-line Israeli government put West Bank settlement expansion at the top of its priority list on Wednesday, vowing to legalize dozens of illegally built outposts and annex the occupied territory as part of its coalition deal with ultranationalist allies." https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/netanyahus-government-vows-to-expand-west-bank-settlements-annex-occupied-territory#)

The article should also include the charter of the Likud party, which has consistently called for the destruction of Palestine: “The right of the Jewish people to the land of Israel is eternal and indisputable and is linked with the right to security and peace; therefore, Judea and Samaria will not be handed to any foreign administration; between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty.”(Original Party Platform of the Likud Party), and was restated 22 years later: "The Government of Israel flatly rejects the establishment of a Palestinian Arab state west of the Jordan river.” (Likud - Platform). Likud officials repeatedly reject a two-state situation, even when it means disagreeing with their leader’s public pronouncements (Likud officials call to omit Netanyahu's two-state declaration from party platform). Or letting Netanyahu have public deniability when it suits them (“The Likud Central Committee, the party’s top decision-making body, unanimously passed a resolution Sunday urging the faction’s leaders to formally annex parts of the West Bank and allow unlimited construction in the settlements.” - Likud top body votes to urge annexing parts of the West Bank). Netanyahoo restated this publicly as late as 2014 (Netanyahu: If I'm elected, there will be no Palestinian state) The latest Likud Constitution confirms it: "Preserving the right of the Jewish people over the Land of Israel, as an indisputable eternal right, persevering in the settlement and development of all parts of the Land of Israel and applying the sovereignty of the state to them." (https://www.likud.org.il/images/huka/hukalikud080514.pdf)

For the last several years, Israel has consistently rejected peace talks: “Israel does not want peace and that, if it had, it would have made peace with the Palestinian Authority (PA) long ago." – The former chief of Israel’s intelligence agency Mossad, Shabtai Shavit. Israeli officials are nearly unanimous in saying “there would not be any peace negotiations with the Palestinians” (Gestures toward Palestinians leave Bennett in bind).

And the current government agrees: ''The government will act in accordance with the following guidelines:
