The article discusses the policies of Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Israeli settlements in the West Bank, highlighting the potential of a push for permanent settlements to be an obstacle to peace negotiations to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Topics addressed include American and European criticisms of the growth of settlements under Netanyahu, as well as considerations of the Modiin Illit, Bruchin, and Efrat settlements.
