That is the proposal: Israel will freeze settlement construction for 90 days if the United States gives it a bribe, er, gift of $3 billion in additional military aid.
You might recall that the Turks recoiled from a similar "gift" proposal from the Bush Administration, which the Bush Administration proffered to get Turkey to let the U.S. Army stage part of the Iraq War from Turkish soil. Many Turks rightly considered the offer of additional aid to be a bribe and it wasn't accepted.
It would appear that the Israeli government has no such scruples.

In the U.S.? He's a radical.
