Hypothetically
who is going to choose how far west will the West Bank border goes? Do we go all the way back to the original UN partitition, the 1949 Armistice line, the 1967 line, the wall line chosen by the Israelis? As to Gaza the borders are already set. Then since the Palestinians refuse to recognize Israel and no treaty will exist between them, then Israel gets to close all border crossings thus ending all imports of anything. Since there is no treaty between them then Israel gets to cut off all utilities too. Will Egypt & Jordan reconnect their utility lines cut since 1967? Will Egypt & Jordan stand by the treaties they signed with Israel or can their economies survive without the two billion dollars in aid they recieve from the US yearly?

Per Abbas:
Palestinian Authority officials have said the "Arab world" does not care about the Palestinian.According to Palestinian officials, Arab states have "failed" to honor their previous pledges to provide Palestinians with financial aid. Palestinians haven't seen "one cent" of the hundreds of millions of dollars the Arab countries promised during the 2010 Arab League Summit. Palestinian leaders stated the Arab world was "continuing to ignore" repeated requests for help.

So as a State can they survive on the donations/gifts/aid that amount to about $1.5 Billion that they recieve from the US and the EU?
