If people are legitimately there, and build their lives based on it, you cannot delegitimize it by saying that some people who also are there resent it. I will not disagree that it makes sense that there will be tension. How it is handled is a different matter. The utter hostility of the Arab powers to Israel was not based on sympathy with the Palestinian Arabs, but on a Pan- Arab ideology that exploited the resentments of the Palestinian Arabs, especially the refugees.
