1967 Borders = ‘Auschwitz Borders’?

Posted by JewishJournal.com

This press release just arrived in from the Simon Wiesenthal Center—calling 1967 borders “Auschwitz Borders’. We will be seeking further comment.

SIMON WISENTHAL CENTER ISRAEL SHOULD REJECT A RETURN TO 1967 ‘AUSCHWITZ’ BORDERS’

The Simon Wiesenthal Center commended President Obama’s call for further democratization in the Arab world but expressed deep disappointment that he called for Israel’s return to the pre-June 1967 borders.

“We welcome the president’s recognition of Israel’s security needs and that Hamas cannot be a partner in the peace process, but a call to a return to 1967 borders as the basis for negotiations, even with “land swaps” is a non-starter, when at least half of the Palestinian rulers are committed to Israel’s destruction”, said Rabbis Marvin Hier and Abraham Cooper, founder and dean and associate dean (respectively). “The road to peace has been clear for a long time-direct negotiations between parties who recognize each other’s legitimacy.”

The Simon Wiesenthal Center is one of the largest international Jewish human rights organizations with over 400.000 members. It is an NGO at international agencies including the United Nations, UNESCO, the OSCE, the Council of Europe, the OAS and the Latin American Parliament.
