Israel and Palistine

Just a thought-President Obama's proposal to move from the present borders to the 1967 borders is absolutely ridiculous. Let us picture the situation in terms more acceptable. What would you do if someone came to your wonderful home country of New Jersey, which had been granted as a haven to your people and religion after a brutal genocide left your culture and population in shambles. But because of the racism of those around you as well as people who have proved they can't peacefully coexist with you declare that they are oppressed the most powerful nation on earth comes to mediate. You expect a fair solution because they have supported your right to a place where you should be able to feel safe in the past. But this country is now run by someone with a new policy. This new President proposed to you that you cede relatively large tracts of land to those who used terrorist tactics against you and now leaves your major population centers, at most, 22 miles away from nations that have proved hostile to you since the creation of New Jersey after World War 2. Would you bend over and accept this? As citizens of the U.S. we sometimes feel that other countries have differing rights than us. Should the United States give back all it's land to the Native Americans after it took them after 1787? If you're answer is yes than it's okay to return to the 1967 Border. But Israel has defended itself and done what was needed for their survival. They were set upon in the 1967 war and fought the countries back to more defensible borders. They could have continued and wrought havoc in those countries but they did only what was needed to survive. We shouldn't use the excuse of, "We're not involved so we're not biased" as an excuse to meddle, we should understand that we have no way to truly comprehend the fact that Israel has been fighting for it's life since it's establishment.
