Not so fast

I don't think your analysis is fair. Trump is indeed likely to offer a two state plan, with significant concessions to the Palestinians. But two state solution, just like the embassy move, is a long standing US policy, so no change here, despite your disagreement with such a policy.

My prediction is that Trump's terms will be totally unacceptable to PA, and this will be the end of story. But even if they pretend to accept them, Israelis will pay lip service and no progress will likely to take place.
