Withdrawal by the US from the current push to restart negotiations would send a clear message that bad behavior will not be tolerated, and would encourage Israelis, who overwhelmingly want peace, to force a change in their own government’s position. Israel’s Labor Party has consistently said that it would bolt from the current coalition if peace talks were halted.
因此美国退出当前重启谈判的行为将明确传达一条信息：错误的行为不会被纵容，并将促使极度渴望和平的以色列人改变其政府的立场。以色列工党坚称如果谈判搁置将退出执政联盟。这至少会改变当前联盟的构成（现外长阿维格多·利伯曼领导下的右翼“我们的家园－以色列”党可能被前任外长利夫尼领导的温和派前进党所取代）。
