Israel is doing what it wants with it's borders and is slowly taking land that does not belong to them. However, it seems to me that no one owns that land because Palestine is not a country. The only thing they can do is stop this bullshit and quickly form a country so that official borders can be recognized. Otherwise, they will continue to have their land taken away from under their feet.
The problem is the Palestine's would rather Cut off their nose to spite their face. When they say they want the 1967 boarders back they are saying they want East Jerusalem.

Instead of agreeing to peace creating a country and getting on with their lives they would rather continue to fight and die for the next hundred years for part of a city that has been in Israels hands for almost 50 years.

Then of course if they did get East Jerusalem they would almost certainly want more because it wasn't enough for them prior to the 6 day war, so why would it be enough now? Instead of agreeing to peace and accepting what they have now, they will likely continue to lose more and more lives and likely territory.
