Palestinians' bad situation has been arranged by their fellow Arabs

I think you meant to write the Palestinians bad situation following the expulsion of 80% of them from their homes in the ethnic cleansing of what would become Israel, and their inability to return to their homes due to Israel's policies, has been arranged by their fellow Arabs. In other words, the other Arabs declined to clean up the mess made in the creation of the "Jewish nation" on land where there had for centuries been a diverse group of people.

You can point fingers at the Arab governments and failing in Arab societies all that you want, it doesn't cancel out the leading cause of animosity between 5 million Jews and 295 million non-Jews in the Middle East - the Nakba. The animosity is not caused simply by your alleged inferiority complex of Arab to Israelis. If it were merely an inferiority complex, the Arabs would be busy hating the super efficient and economically successful Japanese, but they aren't. The animosity between Arabs and Jews in the ME is driven by the Nakba, the forced creation of a Jewish nation in a land populated by many non-Jews and surrounded by many more non-Jews.
