Unfortunately, it’s common in political discussions to hear pundits and commentators say: “Israel must withdraw to the 1967 borders.” There’s only one problem with that analysis: There are no 1967 borders. The line that Israel inherited from the War of Independence is the Armistice Demarcation Line of 1949, which is different from the international boundaries that exist elsewhere in the world.

There certainly are 1967 borders, in the sense of lines created in 1967, but I suspect that’s not what the other guys intend. The 1967 borders I know of are the ones (the armistice lines) established by the 6 Day War. Sure, those would be suitable lines, I would think.
I swear that guy above (Amb Gold) is a dead look alike of Peter Sellers as Clouseau!
LOL!
