Good!
Do you know who started the war?
The Arab aggression started the war.
Do you know what Israel did to save itself from destruction?
It launched a very successful preemptive strike and within six days occupied the Sinai desert from Egypt, the Golan Heights from Syria, the West Bank (under Jordanian occupation between 48-67) and Gaza (under Egyptian occupation between 48-67).
Kinda strange that the Palis never asked for independence when they were under Jordanian and Egyptian occupation, don't you think?

I don't know what to say. Israel won the territory, fine, keep it, but at their own cost. Otherwise negotiate and retreat back to the original borders and defend them.
