It's too bad. Read info from one side and one side is all you will know.
The 1948 borders were specifically drawn to have a majority of Jews in Israel and a majority of Palestinians in Palestine.
In 1967, after Israel won the WB & Gaza it offered it back in exchange for peace. There were no settlements. Take a guess as to whether that offer was accepted or not.

Except for the fact that 800,000 palastinians were forced out. Those "majority of jews" had to push out Palastinians that were living there before hand. And they want their homes back. This is why there will never be peace. Israelis think that they were allowed to push out people without them getting pissed off.
