Pro Pre-1967 Borders
to the question "What are the solutions to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?"
|
| Reasoning: |
"The only acceptable border for Palestinians, after they already gave
up 78 percent of historic Palestine, is the pre-1967 border. This should be
the trade-off deal with the original demand for return to a whole Palestine."

The authors offer perceptive observations on the status of Palestinian citizens of Israel, the successes and failures of the Oslo process, and the prospects for both Palestinians and Israelis of achieving a peaceful future together. A dispassionate and balanced analysis that provides essential background for understanding the complexities of the Middle East."
