#1 And everyone who left Israel before 1967 is no longer a refugee? Nice try, Abu.

#3 Seems to me that the Arabs are the ones that had trouble with those borders in '67.

This has always seemed to me similar to a team losing a football game 42 - 0 at halftime saying that "Well, okay. We agree to start the second half at 0-0.

Losers should STFU.

#6 I think he means the borders before the Six Day War. The UN General Assembly may vote for it, but I don't think -- even under the current American president -- the Security Council will go along.

#7 has the UN ever been able too enforce any of it's votes anyway? Pretty much just a reason for the boys and girls too go clubbin in NY

#8 The General Assembly is where the unimportant countries go to posture, chris. Only the Security Council matters, which is why there is such a fight for the rotating seats... although in the end even in the SC only the Permanent Five countries (the U.S., Russia, China, France and Britain, if I recall correctly) matter, because each has a veto.
