Funny how our Israeli friends here think that "empty lands" in Palestinian territories are all out for grab. That is how criminals think if you ask me. That land belongs to the future Palestinian state which is already recognized by the UN and by majority of world. Check for yourself:

That is why the International Court of Justice and the international community consider the settlements or any kind of land grab to be illegal.

BTW, according to some reports, almost 40% of West Bank settlements were built on Palestinian privately owned land. No wonder. Before 1948 Jews owned nothing in the West Bank. The lands (as the rest of lands in historic Palestine) belonged to the Palestinian Arabs, check for yourself:
