Responding to 'Palestinian' unilateralism
'Moderate' 'Palestinian' President Jerusalem is weighing the annexation of the major settlement blocs if Palestinians seek unilateral recognition of statehood, an official in Jerusalem told AP on Tuesday.Message to Bibi: Stop talking and just do it already.
The official said that "adopting unilateral measures is not a one-way street," and that it was not the only option being considered, according to the report. He cautioned, however, that he was not aware of how seriously the political leadership was considering such a bold move.
Other responses to Palestinian unilateralism could include reducing water access below agreed upon levels, as well as restricting the use of Israeli ports for Palestinian imports and exports, AP reported.
The Prime Minister's Office said that it had not heard of the plan, Israel Radio reported.

If unilateralism is an option, then go with a two state solution, with a shared Jerusalem:
The State of Israel
- and -
The Kingdom of Judea

There is no reason for Israel to wait until September.
The Palestinians plainly intend to abrogate the Oslo Accords and establish a state without making peace with Israel.
Its time for Israel to stop dithering and to start taking action to protect its interests.
I agree with NormanF
If millions of Muslims really are on their way to Israel (if we're to believe facebook intifada pages) then clearly Israel must act to establish 'secure and recognised borders' (to quote UN res 242, which only Israel has fulfilled).
The PA is a corrupt, illegitimate leadership, which encourages hostility towards Israel, and the last elections due since 2009.
