The borders of Israel on June 4 1967 are the same as the cease-fire line of 1949.

I won't argue with you because I (Obviously) don't have the facts on my side, but I'll ask some questions based on what I "Think"...

I've seen maps of a "Growing Isreal". At first, the 1948 Mandate, Isreal was 3 or 4 small areas all broken-up. then after one of the wars, it got a little bigger...Then bigger again...And now, it's what we see on all the maps. Pretty much all one peice of land with the West Bank bulging on it's Eastern Border. And Gaza down on the Southwestern Border.

I guess, what confuses me is why the West Bank is NOT shown as part of Isreal if they "Won it in the 1967 war"??? And, why these other parts that were won in other wars are not contested???
