We have just published Eyal Weizman's detailed new map of the West Bank on www.openDemocracy.net. It reveals the full and terrifying extent of the territory's fragmentation into a patchwork of incoherent enclaves. This amazing resource makes it possible to understand both the totality and the detail of Israeli settlement strategy. We add fascinating case studies of localities like East Jerusalem, Jenin, Hebron and Ramallah.

For the first time, Weizman shows the extent of potential settlement expansion. This map is an essential tool to understanding the conflict in its fundamentals.

Please tell your friends.
