Why Doesn't Israel Just Withdraw to the 1948 Borders?
Ever wonder why Israel doesn't just withdraw to its 1948 borders, approved by the UN. Wouldn't life be simpler? Wouldn't the wars end? This video, by the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, made prior to the current conflict in Gaza, sums up the perspective opposing withdrawal from the land won in the 1967 Six Day War quite well.

I don't believe the 1948 borders are "UN approved." Those are just armistice lines. I'm pretty sure the only such borders are those of the 1947 Partition Plan.
