First, most of the Arabs are descended from those Arabs who came to the land during the British Mandate, or during the Jordanian invasion and occupation in 1948, so have lived there less than a hundred years. The first Arab invasion was in 637, but it was just conquest, with very few Arabs moving in. While Jews have lived in the land for about four thousand years, Arabs have not. Second, Israelis have tried to make peace with the Arabs, and don't even remove them from land they occupied by killing the original Jewish owner. In fact, the whole mess in Eastern Jerusalem is due to the fact the Jewish owners, who still hold deeds to land they bought during Ottoman times, were driven from their homes in Shimon Hatzadik. When the Jordanian army was driven out, the Jews did not drive out the Jordanians squatting in Jewish homes. And after decades in court, the owners finally got the right to recover their property, so the illegal squatters rioted. Some Arabs are part society, there is no impediment to them going to college, voting or being in the Knesset. But, about a quarter want the state of Israel destroyed.
