Abstract
The West Bank is one of the issues that form the core of the Arab-Israeli conflict. This
conflict has to do with Israel’s control of the land for both exploiting its resources and for
allegedly security reasons. The study sheds light on the Israeli security strategy that aims at
holding on to both land and air of the West Bank.
This study aims at examining the Israeli stance vis-à-vis the final solution resulting from
negotiations with Palestinians about the status of the Palestinian territories in the West
Bank. Moreover, the study aims at monitoring the Israeli security trends in the light of the
studies published by Israeli research centers and of the official security positions that are
conveyed by the Israeli security and military establishments to the political circles.
However, this will help us better understand the Israeli security-related perceptions and
proposals that will be drafted in any future negotiations especially those pertaining to the
final status .
The problem of the study seeks defining the real Israeli intentions regarding the West Bank
as the Israeli security and military establishments view it as their strategic depth. After the
2006 war, Israel started to focus on many security issues that Israel perceives highly
necessary for protecting her land and population, a policy that will impede reaching a final
and just peace agreement based on international legitimacy represented mainly by
resolution 242 that stipulates a full Israeli withdrawal from the territories occupied in 1967.
The study concludes that the Israeli security establishment has the final word regarding
negotiations with Palestinians and that withdrawal from the West Bank is unlikely in the
foreseeable future for it will, according to the Israelis, jeopardize their security given their
economic benefits they may gain should they keep their occupation of the West Bank.
