>I don't disagree with you but there is a little known issue that I think keeps the Israelis in the occupied territories ,particulary the West Bank. I've mentioned in before on this thread...........the WB sits on a huge acquifer of water. And Israel needs fresh water. In the ME, water is as good as gold and oil.

>I think that's what's keeping Israel from giving up the occupied territories.

It's part of it, but security is no doubt the greater one.

Yes you have mentioned the acquifer,. however I have never seen a link showing that Israel is taking water from the west bank, and shipping it to Israel. I will try to check.
