Some are trying to use the 1967 borders, however those borders weren't established in a peace treaty, but instead in a cease fire, that has been broken a couple times since then and a cease fire isn't a legally binding agreement of permanent borders, but just a temporary set of battlelines until the establishment of a peace treaty. |
The same logic would imply that Israel shouldn't be member state, as all of palestine's borders that aren't definitely set are borders to israel.
