Contiguous. He means that since the West Bank and Gaza don’t touch, and the only way from one to the other is through Israel, there’ll have to be a land swap to put all the people from both into one chunk of space.

(does that mean Israel will get Gaza by giving up a section that borders on the WB? Another great Mediterranean resort? WIN!!)

That means Israel will have to give up a corridor through the Negev so the Palestinians can have a “contiguous” state (of course this will cut Israel in two, thus making it non-contiguous), while the Palestinians give up nothing.
