  2. HISTORY • The Green Line is the armistice line of the State of Israel with Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon, as stated in the armistice agreements signed in 1949, after the revolutionary war to the outbreak of the six day war in 1967.green line name, given to him that he was painted in green pencil on a map that is used in the discussions. • Israel's borders prior to 1967 reflected the deployment of Israeli forces and the arabsimmediately after the Independence war in 1948.

  3. The Green Line was not an official boundary line but a line that is separating Israel and its neighbors, but in fact this was a limit to everybody. Most parts of the Green Line now serve as an administrative border between the territories. • In the Six Day War, Israel conquered large areas on all fronts, much beyond the Green Line: in the north, Israel occupied from Syria the Golan Heights and reached the southern shoulder of Mount Hermon. In the East, Israel captured from Jordan all of Judea and Samaria (West Bank) and the Old City of Jerusalem and came to the Jordan River. And in the South, Israel occupied from Egypt the Gaza Strip and the entire Sinai Peninsula.

  4. Effects of the Green Line • These occupations have created a complex problem for Israel and the Palestinians : After the war, Israel controlled much larger area of ​​the original territory and a population of 3 million Palestinians. Palestinians, residents of Judea and Samaria and Gaza (some were Jordanian citizens and others without citizenship) had to accept a foreign military regime. • Shortly after the war the Green Line opened to free movement. Contact was indirect but continuous between Israel and Jordan. This policy lasted until the first intifada (which broke out in December 1987). and finally the Green Line was closed to Palestinians almost completely. Free movement of Israelis beyond the Green Line continued until ten years later (Oslo). Israel continues to provide electricity, water, telephone and mail to the Palestinians, though less regularly than she used to.
