If you can find a refutation of these maps, I would appreciate it.

We went over this endlessly on this thread. All the Israelis and the Americans deny it, even Agha and Malley who generally take the Palestinian side, and the Palestinians themselves didn't start to claim it until about nine months after Taba, as they understood the PR damage that they had done to themselves. At the time, Saeb Erekat said that the two sides were very close on land (less than 1% of the territories still being argued over); the talks fell apart over "right of return".

If you want to go over the details, read the back issues of Foreign Affairs.
