Partial Agreements with the Palestinians

Research Forum | November 2009
Giora Eiland
Shlomo Brom

In the current political reality of the Israeli and Palestinian arenas, it is doubtful whether it will be possible to continue the approach of the Annapolis process and conclude a comprehensive permanent agreement. On the other hand, a situation of total stagnation is dangerous and threatens the viability of a two-state solution. An alternative approach is the generation of a gradual process of attaining and implementing partial agreements. This essay outlines four concrete scenarios where partial agreements bring the two sides closer to a permanent agreement.

Interactive Map: U.S. Forces Posture in the Middle East (CENTCOM)
This interactive map highlights the deployment of U.S. military assets and other relevant actors in the region. The current U.S. posture signals deterrence and readiness for offensive military operations, while reflecting a strong preference to avoid a protracted conflict. Combined with intensified ISR activity and diplomatic signaling, this configuration supports coercive diplomacy but also increases the risk of escalation through miscalculation in an already volatile theater. The map is updated regularly and as accurately as possible, based on open-source intelligence assessments and media reporting.
