>May be so but its not very reasonable. At one time under the UN's partition plan, Gaza and the WB touched

I've seen the original maps... Israel has to resolve the issue on the borders for now by building walls/fences, which are fine, as long as they're equitable. However, how do you defend a highway over your own land? That highway would give the Palestinians the high road to lob things down at the Israelis, and might make it easy to sneak in.


Come on Z, we're talking 30-40 kilometers. If Israel can build a wall the entire length of its border with the WB which has to be at least 200-300 km, then they can build a wall on either side of a 30 km. highway. It would require the Palestinians to gas up just before crossing the border either in Gaza or the WB.

Maybe the Palestinians should have two states -- one in Gaza and one in the WB?

Have you seen how small Gaza has become......its about half the size of NY state? It would be hard pressed to survive on its own even with a deep water port.
