Simply WRONG.

Simple...."
YOU: "Yet, by NOT signing the treaty, the Palestinian Authority ensured that any such settler would be handled under Israeli law." NOT IF INTERNATIONAL LAW WERE NOT SPAT ON BY ISRAEL!!! IF ensured, it would have been ensured solely by the existence and persistence of Israel's profound disrespect for International Law. Is International Law not worth the paper it's printed on? If that's the case, then what would a treaty creating internationally recognized national borders for Palestine be worth (for all practical purposes, Israel excluded from making such recognition)? "[A]ll Israeli settlements in the OPT [Occupied Palestinian Territories] violate the Fourth Geneva Convention," for which Israel has and shows ZERO RESPECT. So the PA had NOTHING to lose by refraining from agreeing to any proposed rip-off. What kind of fools would sign their lives over to a regime that would only capitalize to its own advantage on such compromise in any possible way? Again, if "by NOT signing the treaty, the Palestinian Authority ensured that any such settler would be handled under Israeli law" THAT would be due entirely to the fact that ISRAEL HAS NO RESPECT FOR INTERNATIONAL LAW. THE SETTLEMENTS ARE ILLEGAL, with or without the extra paperwork. You haven't the faintest clue how things would have played out had the Palestinians signed a rip-off agreement a few decades ago.
