The Israelis have the right to choose a defensible border.
What makes more sense is for Israel to give Arabs within their territory the choice to join a Palestinian state and have a land swap. The problem is that most Israeli Arabs would choose to remain Israeli (despite the "genocidal racism" they experience daily).

Ah yes, here's some Negev desert. Trade you for Jerusalem.
In my opinion, as stated above, the Israelis have already chosen their "defensible borders". And that's all of it. So now what?
