There is no land grab by Israel. That land (The entire West Bank and Gaza) was already forfieted and lost to Israel by Palestinian Arab acts of war. As the victors, Israel gets to decide what land, if any, she will give to her Arab enemies. That was the risk that Arabs took when they challenged Israel to war. They can build that wall any where they feel like.
