Defense Minister
Ehud Barak on Tuesday night outlined Israel's conditions for a peace
deal with the Palestinians, including maintaining settlement blocs and
Jewish neighborhoods of east Jerusalem.
He said the
pre-1967 borders would be adjusted with land swaps that would leave the
Palestinians
with the same amount of territory, as they would have been
expected to receive under if there had been a full return to the 1967
line.
For security
reasons, the new Palestinian state would be demilitarized and Israel
would need to maintain a presence in the Jordan Valley to ensure.
