On Septemer 15, Israel’s former Minister of Education Naftali Bennett released a supposed map of the Trump-proposed Palestine-Israel deal. He alleged the territory marked ‘black’ is Palestine, while ‘white islands’ are Israel.
Bennett described this as disaster and claimed that Israelis will be in ‘danger’ if such a plan is implemented.
רבותיי, הגיע הרגע לחשוף:
זו ״תכנית המאה״ שתיפול עלינו מיד לאחר הבחירות.בשחור—פלסטין.
בלבן—״איים״ ישראלים בודדים בתוך אוקיינוס של פלסטין. מוקפים 360 מעלות בחמאס, תנזים, אש״ף.גיהנום לכל תושב אריאל, עפרה וקרית ארבע.
סוף להתיישבות.רק ימינה טב תבלום את תכנית האיים בפלסטין. pic.twitter.com/4xkH5TshdT

Nonetheless, there are serious doubts that this map is somehow related to the real plan proposed by the US administration. Since the very start of the Trump presidency, Washington has fiercely supported Israeli agressive actions in the Middle East. The US even recognized Israel’s sovereignty over the occupied Golan Heights.
Therefore, most likely, the posted map is just a part of the ongoing internal political struggle in Israel ahead of the parliament election.
