The borders of the new state were not specified. 

Changing from "Borders for a new Jewish state were specified by the UN" to "The borders of the new state were not specified." is a clear misrepresentation of the truth. The borders of the new state were specified by the UN. The borders specified by the UN were accepted by the Jewish Agency for Israel. To sum all this up in the lead with the statement "The borders of the new state were not specified." is completely dishonest.
