Haaretz is not a reliable Jewish source? Haaretz is reliable, given a certain amount of filtering for its far-left-of-center politics. However, the Ha'aretz account conspicuously failed to back up the claim of four tiny cantons or bantustans. Ha'aretz said the eastern wall would run from Mahola to Ma'aleh Adumim, i.e. directly parallel to the Jordan river. When Ha'aretz spoke of "two enclaves" they were referring to the "waist" effect created by the relative positions of Jerusalem and the Jordan Valley. Israeli sources have a monopoly on facts? Nobody else is credible? When it comes to settlements or walls, only the Israeli sources seem to bother with details like the names of actual locations that you could look up on a map. Other newspapers seem distressing ready either to swallow some pre-digested account, usually with Palestinian sources, or they just don't bother with the details and go straight for the sensational headline. Besides, I never said that "nobody else" is credible, just that the PLO is not credible. Which it isn't.
