he spoils of war go to the winner. IMHO 67 refers to the line of control, after the event.


Fine, so you think that Israel deserves to annex the Golan Heights, the entire West Bank, Gaza and the Sinai. I agree that the world doesn't usually grant do-overs for aggressive wars which the defender won. However, the world always makes an exception for Israel.

Problem for Israel, is that the captured lands contained too many Arabs to annex. They thought that they could use the territories as a bargaining chip, but that didn't work. If the Arab countries had given a damn about the welfare of the Palestinians, it might have, but they didn't.
