What countries border palestine?
It depends on how you define Palestine. If you define it as the territories under the de facto control of the Palestinian Authority, it only borders Israel. If you consider only the territories of the West Bank, even those under de facto Israeli control, it borders both Israel and Jordan. If you consider all of the Palestinian Territories, also including the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip, it borders Israel, Jordan, and Egypt. If you consider the former Mandate of Palestine that many Arabs use when they discuss Palestine replacing Israel, it would border Jordan, Egypt, Syria, and Lebanon (but no Israel since Israel would be gone).

Did Israel ever offer the West Bank back?
According to UNSC Resolution 242, Israel was required to cede the West Bank back to Jordan in order to have a peace treaty. As a result, when the Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was negotiating with Jordanian King Hussein bin Talal of Jordan, Rabin offered to discuss a phased withdrawal of Israeli control from the West Bank and its restoration to Jordanian power (similar to the Sinai Peninsula phased withdrawal). King Hussein actually rejected this overture arguing that they wanted to cede their claim to the West Bank to the Palestinian Authority. Israel agreed to transfer the claim to the West Bank to the Palestinian Authority and made peace with Jordan in 1994.Israel has negotiated on and off with the Palestinian Authority concerning phased withdrawals and areas of local governance. However, Israel has never offered the Palestinian Authority all of the West Bank. (Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak offered Arafat roughly 95% of the territory in 2000, but this was rebuffed because Israel refused to approve a Palestinian Right of Return to Israel.)
Where is Israel under Palestine's control?
Yes, Palestine was a country. When Israel was created in 1948, the land was occupied by the British and before that the Turkish Empire. When the UN created Israel after the Holocaust they wanted to split the land in half. Half as Palestine and half as Israel. Arabs did not like the idea. As the British retreated from Israel all the neighboring Arab countries tried to take over Israel. A war ensued and as the Jewish people pushed back their Arab neighbors they declared the land Israel. Palestinians today who live in the West Bank were Jordanian before the war, but never went back to live Jordan, because they want to stay in their home country. The West Bank and Gaza both are Palestinian and are still in Israel, but are run by their own Palestinian governments. Palestinians are determined to get THEIR land back.___________________________________________________________ Palestine has been semi-autonomous (the Palestinian Authority) since renouncing war on Israel in the 1990's. As stated above, the Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza now govern themselves, but they are not an independent country. They are still technically part of Israel. A study of history will show that this land has had many rulers before the Israelis, the Brits, and the Turks. But as the Arabs say"our land will be back".

Are there any Palestinian Resistance movements within Israel?
Of course! There are signs of Palestinian resistance everywhere within Israel proper and the Palestinian Territories. Many Arab Israeli citizens identify as Palestinian and with the Palestinian cause, although they do not necessarily want to move to the West Bank. The whole concept of the "right of return" is demonstrative of the Palestinian desire for autonomy and equality within Israel proper. There are also a number of organizations and groups run by Jewish Israelis such as Rabbis for Human Rights and Peace Now, which support Palestinian people within Israel and the Palestinian Territories. Resistance can be defined in many ways and take many forms, which do not necessarily need to be associated with political parties.
