U.S. Sets Limits on Disengagement Plan: No Annexation, No Eastern Fence
(Ha'aretz) Aluf Benn - Senior U.S. officials have made it clear in recent conversations with Israeli officials that the U.S. opposes the annexation of West Bank territory and the construction of an eastern fence between West Bank Palestinian cities and the Jordan Valley. It also opposes moving settlers from Gaza to the West Bank. U.S. officials Steve Hadley, Elliott Abrams, and William Burns are due in Israel on Wednesday to meet Sharon to discuss the disengagement plan and prepare for his coming visit to Washington.
