The trouble is there is a significant and very violent portion of the Palestinian population and Iran that backs them that believes that all of Israel is 'land that doesn't belong to them' so it doesn't really matter what Israel does they will still be attacked
This then leaves Israel viewing land strategically; to give up the Golan Heights and the West Bank is to give up the high ground overlooking the whole of Israel and a days march to the coast, from a military point of view that is suicide
