On page 54, Engel describes how Israel/Palestine was divided into three sections: Area A being fully under Palestinian control (Bethlehem, Ramallah, Jericho, Nablus and most of Hebron), Area B (1/4 of the West Bank) under Palestinian civil control but shared security control with Israel, and Area C: all the Israeli settlements and 70% of the West bank under Israel’s control. In your discussion post: explain how all of this worked and what the problems were within this A, B, C system. Who did it favor? Why were the Palestinians so upset by it? How can you see it leading to further tensions and break downs within the peace talks later on? Do you think this is an effective way to divide Israel and Palestine? If not, how would you divide it?
