There was peace for thousands of years before the European Jews arrived-- Jews, Moslems, and Christians lived side by side
There was a reason Jews wanted their own country...and it wasn't because everyone lived happily ever after side by side for thousands of years. Jews were persecuted in almost every Arab country after the Arab conquest of the 7th century and had to accept life as second class citizens under dhimmi laws, such as paying special taxes to their Arab conquerers for "protection". Jews were relagated to Arab style Jewish ghettos. They had to wear special identifying clothing. They didn't have equal rights as a Muslim under the law. You get the picture...not a good place for a Jew to live..especially when they could have their own country in Judea-cum-Palestine and live as first class citizens.

43% Of Israelis are precisely these people. Who were driven penniless for the Arab nations after 1948. 

Israel is the ingathering of the Jews of the MidEast. Why live as dhimmi when you can live free in Israel? And can arm yourself against your Muslim oppressors.
The pea brain Muslims are driven nuts by an independent Jewish nation in the MidEast. They can only envision Jews living under their thumb as dhimmi
