In the past few years Israel has offered various "peace proposals" which would allow Israel to keep a large settlement block in the west bank. Hebron was never one of the settlements which Israel desired to keep. This is a telling fact. Hebron settlers know that the day will come in which they (1) voluntarily leave Hebron, (2) are escorted from Hebron by the IDF, or (3) stage a last stand against the Palestinians without the prospect of assistance. It is a toss of a coin whether this will be a greater relief to Israel or to the Palestinians.
