Len hoping for much more that that offer isn't very sane. It included most of the West Bank and perhaps all of Gaza. Israel isn't going to accept millions of Palestinians as part of a "right to return" and the PLO is not going to defeat Israel. This leaves the choices of accepting the deal, keeping negotiating and hoping for a little bit more, or continuing to suffer but perhaps be cheered by the fact that your enemy suffers as well.

Usually in negotiations you don't get everything you want or feel you deserve esp. if you are negotiating from a position of weakness. Is another few dozen square miles worth another generation of violence?
