Eventually Gaza will revert back to Egypt, and West Bank – to Jordan.


Not likely, unfortunately. The Israelis offered the Occupied Territories back to Egypt and Jordan in '67 and '70, in exchange for a peace treaty, and were refused. King Hussein formally renounced Jordanian claims on the West Bank in the 70's after the Yom Kippur War, and Egypt refused to take back the Gaza strip, which they were offered as part of the Camp David peace deal, in 1979.

So as it stands, the Occupied Territories cannot be returned to the states they were conquered from.
