some not insignificant fraction of Arabs will not accept anything less than the exit of Jews (or at least total loss of power) from Palestine.

Probably MOST of them would accept nothing less then seeing the area which is presently Israel reverting back to Muslim rule. The sad part is that indeed they OUGHT to feel this way - if they really follow their religious beliefs.

I decided for myself a long time ago that Israel has as much right to exist as any other nation. Therefore, discussions about the "legitimacy" of its origins - to me - is just empty chatter and a waste of time.

Do I think they should be allowed to defend themselves? Of course. Am I confident that they will do so successfully in the long run? No.

not in making matters worse

What would be a more "constructive" reaction to having a hostile army "rain" rockets on your cities?
