I'm curious, Carol. Why the before 1967 borders and not for instance the 1948 borders or the pre-1948 borders? What makes a border originating from a war acceptable to you?

It's a compromise, Wolfgang. The most just and fair arrangement from the Palestinian perspective would be to have the land Israel took from them that was outside the area that was given to Israel by the UN, given back to them. However, that would cause quite a lot of problems for the Israelis who live in those areas. So the 1967 borders are a difficult, but just barely (for the Palestinians) workable compromise.
