It could make things worse...I mean Israel is sending a confuse message to the Palestinians and to the entire world:"we will allow you to have your own country,but meanwhile we will build a few more settelments where you supposed to have your own independent country...we're bulding them so in the near future we could abandone them...and give it to you...".So of course Palestinians will see Israel occupying even more land and they are going to be more willing to liberate it,by any possible means,which will eventually lead to more violence from both sides...
Israel already took enough land and taking more won't make things better over there:http://zionismexplained.org/map/map.html

Your question is based on a false premise.
Wednesday's New York Times states specifically that the settlement is not “new” at all, but a revival of a settlement approved in 1981, which had become a military training site by the mid-1990s.
In other words, the settlement has been around for over a decade.
Eatmore enjoys repeating myths and claiming that they are true. The Romans had changed the name of the Land of Israel to "Palestine." But from AD 640 until the 1960s, Arabs referred to this same Land as "Southern Syria." Arabs only started calling the Land "Palestine" in the 1960s. Until about the eighteenth century, the Christian world called this same Land, "The Holy Land." Thereafter, they used two names: "The Holy Land" and "Palestine." When the League of Nations in 1922 gave Great Britain the mandate to prepare Palestine as a national home for the Jewish people, the official name of the Land became "Palestine" and remained so until the rebirth of the Israeli State in 1948. During this very period, the leaders of the Arabs in the Land, however, called themselves Southern Syrians and clamored that the Land become a part of a "Greater Syria." This "Arab Nation" would include Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Transjordan as well as Palestine.
Because Arabs until the 1960s spoke of Palestine as Southern Syria or part of Greater Syria, in 1919 the General Syrian Congress stated, "We ask that there should be no separation of the southern part of Syria, known as Palestine."

Considering everthing that is going on in the Mideast right now, it will not make things better or worse. As Israel can do nothing to appease the Arab world, it will be chaos as usual.

It is difficult to see how anything could make things worse in the Mideast.

Seeing as how the West Bank belongs to the Palestinians, I don't think they'd be very happy at having their land stolen YET AGAIN. It'll just kick off another cycle of tit-for-tat violence that will just escalate needlessly.

The Palestinians will claim it as a new reason to attack Israelis. What else is new.

Worse. Israel invaded palestine and are stealing their lands.

No difference. There never has been a chance for a diplomatic solution & this won't change that.

Worse, but they don't care.

It won't help. Then again I am not sure what would.
