Editor's Notes

  1. -Palestine declares statehood based on the 1967 borders. -Israel and the international community recognizes Palestinian statehood with the right to self determination and full sovereignty. -Return to pre 1949 borders: Golan Heights to Syria, West Bank to Jordan, Gaza Strip to Egypt.-West Bank, Gaza, Jerusalem , and Israel proper, become a unitary Israel-Palestinian state.
