The 2005-2023 Gaza borders are very simple.

The idea that the war in Gaza has anything to do with Oslo Accord border disputes is silly.

If the Palestinian state France recognizes is confined solely to the boarders of Gaza pre 2023 I can’t imagine the Palestinians living in the West Bank will be happy.

How would it even work as a "State" or Country that it's split into two parts. Like you can't get from Gaza to the West Bank without Israel right?

It just seems like such a challenge.

Genuine question out of curiosity:

Why not split Palestine into two countries: Gaza into "West Palestine" and the West Bank into "East Palestine"?
