I was talking about Israels borders from the start.

So was I, Noel. The ones that the Arab states were supposed to recognize in the truce of 1949, but never did. The ones that only became sacred to them after they lost land in their failed attempts to destroy Israel. Even now, the Arab states are offering mere recognition of Israel's existence - in ANY borders - as if it were some great prize. While the official newspaper of the PA, that organization which, we are told, favors a two-state solution, talks about "occupied Afula".

So it sounds like the Israelis are trying to keep some land east of the Green Line, and the Palestinians are trying to keep some, make that all, land east of the Green Line. Yet only the first is an outrage. Need I wonder why?
