While obviously not the same percentage land/land as Gaza/Israel, it's a nice revolutionary proverb** but I think the US "gave land for peace" to the Indians and we haven't had much trouble out of them after a while....granted, American Indians had more of a societal structure developed in the 19th century than the Pali's do in the 21st...
But if you look at it in the reverse, the Indians gave up 99.99% of their land to the USA, and they haven't had too much trouble from US lately.
Maybe someday the Pali's will build some nice casinos? (Flame suit donned.)
Seriously, I see the only disconnect is that the Israelis have been fighting a war, and now they are giving up land. Usually, in the Limbaugh Doctrine, this indicates a "loss" but not always.

Already tried that.
They closed after Israelis got sick of being shot at on their way there.
