The 1947 UN Partition Plan. Who divided the borders again?

Israel would prefer as much land as possible to properly defend itself
FTFY.

Because land grab is the OLD excuse. It's last decade's criticism of Israel, and some people are still using it in knee-jerk fashion.

But it's very very very obviously not true at this time in history. Because Israel LEFT Gaza. It uprooted the homes and lives of Israelis who had lived there for twenty years to do so.

And suddenly, once that was no longer an excuse, new excuses arrive.
