On eve of meeting with Bush, Sharon refuses return to '67 borders

Since the 1967 armistice lines (nobody ever recognized them as borders) are if not indefensible at least overly difficult to defend, it's clear that the Israelis aren't going to pull back to them if they can help it. And I don't think they can back down on Jerusalem -- which to me is less the symbol of the conflict than the symbol of how Arabs can't understand that other people have holy places too.
