10% more of what? How much land do you think they have lost from their original borders?

Original Borders? What "Original Borders"? You mean the borders of the BRITISH mandate of Palestine http://www.jafi.org.il/education/100/maps/mandate.html ? You mean the borders of the UN partition plan http://www.jafi.org.il/education/100/maps/part.html ? Well they rejected those borders and tried to take it all. And lost several times and now are "entitled" only to whatever the Israelis are willing to give them.

If Israel really wanted peace, they would 1)stop building settelments and 2)tear down the existing settelments.

Given that that is what the Israelis have been doing despite Hamas claiming that they will not stop figting till there are "no more Jews in Palestine" (remebering their definition of Palestine includes all of Israeli), so who wants peace and who does not?
