Armistice lines did not designate any territory.RoccoR said:It is not a "false conclusion."
There are several concepts in play here.
First:
Every State likewise has the duty to refrain from the threat or use of force to violate international lines of demarcation, such as armistice lines, established by or pursuant to an international agreement to which it is a party or which it is otherwise bound to respect.
The armistice lines never divided Palestine from anybody else. In the case of the West Bank and Gaza, the lines ran through Palestine. How can the Palestinians violate a line that is Palestine on both sides?
The armistice lines have little to do with Palestine. They were agreements between two sovereign states.

Look at the map on the right. It clearly shows Israeli territory and Arab territory following the signing of the agreements.
I feel the solution would be a self governing, self determination Palestinian State where the Palestinians could no longer suck off of Israel to provide for them. The big question is where to put it as no surrounding Arab country will grant the Palestinians a right of return back to their indigenous homelands. Do you think Mecca might be a nice place for a Palestinian State?
The Palestinians are home, and some of the Jews homes are on their land.
Land was taken by Jordan when the jews were forced to leave the WB. Some of the land is being reclaimed.
