28 September, 2010 — Palestine Center
On or about Sept. 26 the Israeli government’s declared settlement moratorium came to an end. This has been identified as a major obstacle in the nascent peace talks. The moratorium has been incomplete and settlement construction has continued in many areas despite the so-called “freeze.” As settlers awaited the coming of this date to return to large-scale building, Palestinian negotiators stated they will not continue with negotiations without an extension of the freeze. What role will the Israeli government’s decision have on the peace talks? What happens if these talks fail and what is the fallout if failure comes so early in the process? If a deal is reached and peace talks continue, what role will settlement construction play in destabilizing the process?
