Yeah. They "encroached" on 77% of Palestinian land in 1947.

Since then, they've steadily encroached on 56% of what was left.

Now they're encroaching on 32% of Gaza, which is 4% of the 56% of the 77%. The Palestinians are going from owning the least usable 10.1% of all the land they used to own, to now a 9.7% share. So what's the big deal? Doesn't sound like that much.
