#3 Perfectly describes my feeling about a lot of people who just don't get it.
I used to picture the PC Magazine add article from a couple decades ago that the editors used to depict the characters who just don't get it (their magazine).

#5 "link-up between the terrorist strongholds of Jenin and Nablus "

also known as 'cities' which can hardly be kept seperate forever. As to Jenin, its so quiet, when Israel insisted that the first tranche of properly trained Pal security go there, the PA objected that they should go elsewhere where they more needed. Clearly Israel wanted them tested in a relatively quiet town first. Nablus is not as far along, but its on its way.

Of course there are risks. But letting Abbas' popularity slide, and Hamas' increase, also is risky. Abbas has to be given something.

As for a clear path to the Israeli heartland cities, what happened to the security fence?

this is debka. Take as you would any other debka piece.

#7 IIUC, the border fence north and south of Tulkarm has been improved quite a bit in the past 12 months. Israel may have decided that since it was going to remove the Asariya roadblock anyway, they might as well get some PR with the US for it.
