OK - pre1967 borders is internationally recognized borders. Now how much land does Israel own outside of those borders ?

Not by Syria, Lebanon or Iran.

If its an inch more, its Israel not respecting its neighbors borders, just like you accuse Iran of doing so.

Which neighbors? Gaza doesn't belong to Egypt. The West Bank doesn't belong to Jordan. They had the chance to get them back, and specifically waived the claim. No country owns the land. How do you disrepect the borders of a country that doesn't exist? The last internationally recognized ruler of that land was the British. The Palestinians could declare a country in the WB and Gaza, and nearly every country on Earth would rush to recognize it - but they don't want to. Because it would mean that they had given up their claim to ALL of Palestine.

I might add, that land taken in defensive war is considered lost to the agressor in all cases but Israel's. Nobody told Jordan to attack Israel in 1967.
