Unilateral Israeli measures that can advance peace are numerous. Comprehensive proposals exist for “coordinated unilateral” plans—such as those proposed by the Institute for National Security Studies or Commanders for Israel’s Security—which call for proactive Israeli steps to draw down the occupation and preserve the possibility of a two-state outcome.
Other proposed unilateral steps include:
A commitment by Israel to end settlement expansion beyond the wall;
Easing restrictions on Gaza;
Redesignating parts of the West Bank currently falling under full Israeli administration (Area C) as areas that fall under partial or full Palestinian administration (Areas B or A);
Removing impediments to Palestinian economic development;
Ending home demolitions and other forms of collective punishment;
Removing impediments to Palestinian elections in East Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza;
Alleviating restrictions on movement and access;
Gradually releasing Palestinian prisoners; and
Allowing the reopening of Palestinian institutions, such as the Orient House, in East Jerusalem.
But there are numerous unilateral measures that Israel can employ to reduce the possibility of peace. The most dangerous unilateral step for the two-state solution would be annexation of parts of the West Bank such as the Jordan Valley, as proposed by Netanyahu during the most recent election campaign. Alarmingly, the proposal was also seemingly endorsed by the more centrist Blue and White Party.
