15. If you gave Arab-majority areas to Palestine...
you would be looking at giving pretty much the whole northern district to Palestine - I don't think that would fly.

The idea of defensible borders is bunk, by and large. Most wars these days turn on who has air superiority. There is also the fact that Israel has nuclear weapons which makes the whole thing a zero sum game.
