And the flight times of some MISSILES could be even shorter.

Israel would be quite foolish to go back to the Pre-Six-Day-War
borders ---- so they will not.

And they SHOULD not.

Deus Vult.

Sholem Aleichem.

See the following:

When the pro-Pallies say "the 1967 lines", what they really
mean are the 1949 armistice lines. But why should Israel go
back almost 40 years or over 50 years to anything?

"The armistice agreements of 1949 are no sacred law. Those
agreements and the armistice relations provided by them--
not peace, but armistice--and the borders and all other
provisions were the result of the war of 1948. Today's
conditions are the result of the war of 1967. Nothing
confers on the results of the 1948 war any priority over
the results of the last war. We are no longer bound by
what happened in 1948."
- Moshe Dayan, in HM Sachar, History of Israel: From the
Rise of Zionism to Our Own Time, p 673

Yes....

I Agree With Moshe Dayan....

Israel is certainly not bound by the 1948 borders.
