HKOPS: The other two-state solution Biden could endorse

By David Singer - posted Friday, 5 April 2024

HKOPS also trashes the creation of an independent Palestinian Arab State between Israel and Jordan proposed by:

The 1993 Oslo Accords
President Clinton’s 2000 solution
The 2002 Arab Peace Initiative
President Bush’s 2003 Roadmap for Peace
President Obama’s proposalin 2011
President Trump’s 2020 deal of the century

Major changes made to the Saudi Plan published on 8 June 2022 in the subsequently revised version are:

The area of the West Bank to be included in the Hashemite Kingdom of Palestine - approximately 70% in the published version - has been reduced to about 30% in the revised version.
The Hashemite Kingdom of Palestine will be under Hashemite rule and have its capital in Amman – not Jerusalem
Sole Israeli sovereignty in Jerusalem is promised (with an appropriate arrangement for Arab control of the Moslem holy places) - if agreement on all other issues is reached.

President Biden could well be considering endorsing the HKOPS two-state solution as “a two-state solution” to replace the failed Resolution 2334 two-state solution.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre: Please confirm or deny.
