Why I never mentioned about taking away their independence is because this notion this opinion peace which Al Jazeera suggests doesn't truly exist. By design, the proposal is for a two-state system, creating two independent nation states and not one to be subservient to the other.

The question here is, what is more important? Independence? Peace? But shouldn't that be their choice? In fact, shouldn't they be allowed to have BOTH like every other nation?
I need not even revisit the peace accord, merely directing readers to points #7 which discusses the "independence of the State of Palestine," and #9 which "Facilitates the integration of the State of Palestine into the regional and global economy."
The Peace Plan outlines the Nation of Palestine to be finalized after four years, with a section of East Jerusalem as its capital. And land seized by Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War would revert to Palestine. This never happened before. Of course, the proposal has its critics. And Palestine had treated all previous proposals as dead on the water since the 90s.
But the article was quite incorrect on part of President Mahmoud Abbas whom they said would not consider any future of the plan. In fact, talks may continue. Heck, from the same article you posted, it stated "a number of Arab states have come in support of the plan - something that was unthinkable in the past when Arab regimes feared the reaction of the Arab public to even the mention of normalisation of relations with Israel." And Jared Kushner stated they are awaiting any suggestions from Palestine, leaving the door open.
Of course Hamas is against it. But that's to be expected.
