The concept of a Jewish state is anathama to them. The British can be blamed for this. They promised the Jews a zionist state in order to get the Jews on their side in the war against Turkey. They did the same thing to the Arabs. But then they decided to limit Jewish immigration into the Palestinian mandate while opening the borders to the Arabs in the surrounding regions. Many Arab families think they have always lived in the area west of the Jordan when in truth their grandparents were the first to live there. Funny thing how that works. I have known Mexicans in San Antonio who do not know that in 1900, the city was mainly Anglo and Germans, that the most commonly spoken language there was German. The Mexicans think their families have always been there. But as late as 1940 they were still in the minority.
