Thanks for the ping topcat. I was thinking about this very issue just the other day in light of recent events. From a dispensationalist view how much land constitutes the reforming of Israel? I would imagine the answer you'll get is, "As long as Israel has been reformed it doesn't matter how big Israel is."
But with Gaza Israel is ceding territory once pointed at by Christians as an example of God's fulfillment of prophesy(along with the Sinai Dessert that Israel gave to Egypt). This was the land where Christians have stated "the dessert will bloom..." and pointed to the greenhouses in Gaza as proof.

I look for Israel to give up at least a part of Jerusalem, for 42 months (Rev 11:2).

Of course, they neglect that God had much more in Mind for Abraham and his descendants than a small parcel of land in the Levant.
