Here is a problems,those who are driving force behind Israeli politics haven't forgot about khyber and for them life of an Arab holds less value then an insect.
A radical minority. I just don't like this falsification of history. Arabs and Jews have lived side by side since time immortal and are cousins and throughout much of history (real history) the ties have been cordial to say the least.
Over 2000 years ago the mother of King Herod the Great (one of the most famous Jewish kings and considered the builder of Al-Quds/Jerusalem) was an Nabatean (Arab) princess from neighboring Hijaz.

Even during the Islamic period from Al-Andalus to the Arab heartlands, we cooperated. This strong anti-Jewish sentiment is mostly a Christian and European thing, first propagandized by Romans. Prophet Muhammad (saws) himself had dealings with the Jews of Arabia. So why can we not do that once again after already having dealing with Jews for 97% of the past 1400 years of Islamic history?
Also have in mind that 2/3 of all Israeli's are Arab Jews, meaning Jews from Arab lands. They are genetically identical to their Muslim, Christian, Atheist, Flying Spaghetti Monster brethren. Expect for religion, a fellow Semitic Abrahamic religion that is closer to Islam than any other religion. We share much in common and rather than ignoring that or keep having hostile ties for another 70 years, we should work towards peace if a two-state solution materializes. This, contrary to propaganda, is what both Jews and Arabs want in particular Israelis and Palestinians who are the one that are at conflict first and foremost.
Radicals who hate the other party due to his race/religion alone are on both sides. However that should not prevent the normal people and the majority, to work towards that goal.
Not only that, Arab and Jewish cooperation could once again lead to many positive things. That is undeniable.
I have no shame in saying what I have written in this thread. Nowhere in my religion or culture does it state that I must hate Jews for being Jews. I can, as I do currently, dislike Israeli policy towards Palestine and Palestinians (which I openly do as I have done 1000's of times on PDF and other platforms and most importantly in person) but that does not mean that I shall hate all Jews or Israelis, 21% of which, Israelis that is, are fellow Arabs.
I am the kind of person that tends to study history and ook at the future and not have a short-sighted view that is based on 70 years of history when almost 40 times that number of years, another history proves what I have written and gives hope for an end to this conflict. If people have a problem with that it is not my problem and I will refer them to some history books and encourage them to use common logic. Especially in times like that where we have enough of problems.
