Recently, I saw a road map of Israel/Palestine in a synagogue where
our support group meets. There is no line between pre-1967 Israel and
the occupied territories. Instead, there are specially-colored areas
marked as being under Palestinian administration and other
specially-colored areas marked as being under joint
Israeli/Palestinian administration. Except for that famous prison camp
called the Gaza strip, the areas under purely Palestinian
administration are very small. The areas under joint administration
are larger.

Someone pointed out that Palestinian maps see Israel/Palestine as a
unified area ("Palestine"). It's interesting to see that the occupying
power and the occupied people agree on something. However, I'd bet
that the Golan Heights would be excluded from Palestine in the
Palestinian map, unlike in the Israeli map.
