Even before Trump's echoing of the peace plan's mainstream news, the interpretation of black and ultra-Orthodox contracts for the fate of the stability of the Middle East had already piled up. They described prophesies of rage that the peace plan - at best - would mold in the State Department's drawers, be thrown in the garbage bin of history and be forgotten like other policy plans, or at worst - set fire to the flames that set the area on fire.

On the pessimistic future that contracts for the century deal, as well as the "political tsunami" he saw in his mind, Ehud Barak and his terrifying waves that shattered with faint torment, the danger Jerusalem would not realize and a third world war after the US embassy to the capital did not burst. Those allegedly dangerous moves have come to fruition, and the wonder and wonder - except for the feeble protest of the Palestinian street and Arab states, and the boycott of the Palestinian leadership over Trump and his administration - are a customary world.

The average Palestinian in the West Bank has enjoyed this relative prosperity for more than a decade. Conflict management seems to be much better with the Palestinians in the West Bank than it seems to the average Israeli. The level of violent friction between settlers and Palestinians in Judea and Samaria is minimal. Many Palestinians work in settlements, and many more hold respectable jobs and earn a living in factories in industrial areas beyond the Green Line and seam areas.

True, it's not all about money and economics, but after the threats and warnings, there are also people who want life, and most of them are Palestinians in the West Bank.

A few months ago I visited Jordan for the preparation of an article marking 25 years of the Israel-Jordan peace agreement. A Palestinian whom I met in Amman described the situation of his family in the West Bank to me. "Until ten years ago I would send my family in Tulkarm money to help her. In recent years, my Tulkarm family has been helping me and my family finish the month."
