why obama says back to '67 borders? yes israel captured territory,but the

[misterright]

war started in self defense (wiki)? In May 1967, Nasser received false reports from the Soviet Union that Israel was massing on the Syrian border[18]. Nasser began massing his troops in the Sinai Peninsula on Israel's border (May 16), expelled the UNEF force from Gaza and Sinai (May 19) and took up UNEF positions at Sharm el-Sheikh, overlooking the Straits of Tiran.[19][20] Israel reiterated declarations made in 1957 that any closure of the Straits would be considered an act of war, or justification for war.[21][22] Nasser declared the Straits closed to Israeli shipping on May 22–23. On May 30, Jordan and Egypt signed a defense pact. The following day, at Jordan's invitation, the Iraqi army began deploying troops and armored units in Jordan.[23] They were later reinforced by an Egyptian contingent. On June 1, Israel formed a National Unity Government by widening its cabinet, and on June 4 the decision was made to go to war. The next morning, Israel launched Operation Focus, a large-scale surprise air strike that was the opening of the Six-Day War.

What a nut this British guy is. Nothing more than a Jew hater that thinks Auschwitz wasn't an execution camp. Most likely he's a Palestinian first and a Brit next.

Let Egypt put 100,000 troops on UK's border along with Syria, Iraq, and Jordan to watch them be passive.

Only a FOOL would think Israel was the aggressor. The same fools that question if the Holocaust ever happened.

The revisionists would not accept the facts of history. It doesn't matter how much we state the truth and the facts, it doesn't matter how much we have in evidence. The hatred for Israel and the Jews will over run any form of common sense and historical fact.
If peace is to be achieved in the mid east then appeasing the crocodile will not work.
The PLO and Hamas have to recant their wish for Israel's destruction and they have to make the Arabian nations that pulled the Arabs out of Israel in 1948 live up to "their" commitments. If the Palestinian Arabians want to return then the Arabians must allow the Jews to return to their former Arabian homes intact as well.
There were more Jews extradited and moved out of the Arab lands than there were Arabians who left Israel following the 1948 debacle.
Obama's plan to return to the 1967 borders is foolhardy and it won't work. It simply won't work because the Arabs want the whole land of Israel. They are not satisfied with just a few slivers of land they want it all.

BTW, the six day war was about Egypt massing troops and tanks on Israel's border. Israel is a small country and can be overrun in days. Israel kicked their butts. All of them. They deserve what they won and could have taken more if they wanted.

I don't feel any sorrow for those that was massing attacks against Israel in 67. However, they should have been ashamed of themselves for trying to attack Israel.

A small country with few troops surrounded by enemies must have preemptive strikes to survive. They are the experts on preemptive strikes.

Let's never forget who Israel's enemies are:

Obama needs to keep his nose out of things he knows nothing about. Compare Hillary's International studies background to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice before they were both selected for the job and it's clear Obama picked simply a lawyer with no diplomatic experience or knowledge of international affairs. She is the weakest Secretary of State we ever had. She got the job as a "pay off" and that is what is wrong with Obama... he has surrounded himself not with experts but lawyers he felt necessary to pay back for his election.
