So you are rewriting history again? When negotiations for a peaceful settlement were negotiated between Arafat and Barak, then Israelis promised to return with a detailed map for a suggested border. This demand by Arafat because so many previous agreements, without every detail stated, were recinded on those missing details. But Barak's negoitation team included Sharon. Sharon extremists needed such negotiations to break down. When Barak returned to the table, Israel only had a map sketched on the back of an envelope. Bad faith negotiations. Arafat - as he should have due to bad faith - no map - walked out.

So you forgot to read that history? Oh. That was Urbane Guerrilla making the claim.
