While of course there is no easy ending to the occupation nor is one in sight for the immediate future that does not equate to settlement and continued civilian presence in the area.

In fact, it could be argued, that there is a consensus among the majority of Israelis to never end the occupation, but to continue to entrench it by means of continued civilian settlement. As such, the settler movement have achieved their objective of creating a status quo which makes withdrawal from the West Bank impossible and de facto apartheid like conditions in the West Bank the acceptable, to Israel, status quo for the indefinite future.
