Palestinian Arabs have different opinions on this matter. While 54.8% of Palestinian Arabs living in Judea and Samaria say they support the two- state solution, Arabs in Gaza are fiercely opposed to it.
An acting Chairman of the PA Legislative Council and Hamas member Ahmad Bahar warned that accepting a Jewish state was tantamount to betrayal and a crime. "Someone who accepts the Jewishness of the state [of Israel] betrays Allah, his messenger and believers. The significance of the Jewishness of the state is that the Palestinians don't exist. …it means recognizing Jewish existence in the land of Palestine," he said.
"Even recognition of two states is a crime against the Palestinian cause. The state that the Jews want is a state in which we will be servants, messengers, of the Jews. And one who accepts this is betraying Allah, his messenger, and [Muslim] believers. We will not accept and not recognize a state for the Jews here on Palestinian land! We will not recognize it!

How many Israelis have been killed by Arabs since 1850?
It is unclear what an "Israeli" is prior to 1948 as there was no state of Israel before that point. If the term "Israeli" is also pushed back to the forerunners of the State, the Zionist Palestinian Jewry, it still only goes back to conflicts in the early 1920s. Additionally, many non-Zionist Palestinian Jews and Palestinian Arabs would also have descendants who would be Israeli citizens. Between all of the various wars and riots since the 1920s, roughly 25,000 Israelis and Palestinian Jews were killed at Arab hands (either Palestinian Arabs or Arabs from other countries). Prior to 1920s, the numbers would been incidental.

Did Arabs welcome Jews into Palestine?
Yes and No. The Druze and Bedouin Arabs welcomed the Jews into Palestine (the Bedouin more than the Druze initially) while the Palestinian Arabs (the majority) did not. Druze and Bedouin Arabs did welcome the Jews into Mandatory Palestine. They developed mutual respect for each other. The Jews helped the Druze defend Nabi Shu'ayb, called the Tomb of Jethro, from Muslims who were intending to prevent the Druze from accessing their holy site. This act cemented the Jewish-Druze friendship. The Bedouins developed close relations to the Jewish Settlers since the Jews did not look down on them and offered them water and employment in agriculture. The friendship between the Jews and the Bedouins remains strong in Israel today. The Palestinian Arabs were actually quite adamant about not giving the Jews any land or space as soon as it became clear in the late 1920s that the Jews intended and would soon realize their own state apparatus. They attacked the Jewish settlement in Hebron in 1929, scalping and beating many Jewish inhabitants. They organized militias to attack other Jewish settlements, they petitioned the British government to prevent Jewish immigration (resulting in the White Papers of 1939 which banned Jewish immigration during the entire Holocaust when a place of refuge was most necessary), and consistently fought against Jewish Militias who were targeting the British colonizers instead of uniting to overthrow the British before trying to decide a resolution. The Palestinian Arabs did not support a two-state solution prior to 1967 and did not accede to the idea of a two-state solution until the Oslo Accords of 1993. Still to this day, the idea of a two-state solution (as a final solution) is relatively unpopular in Palestinian circles. The reason that Israel exists as a country is because of UN Resolution 181 and the Zionist Jews who used that resolution as the basis upon which to declare a country and defend it from military onslaught.
What is the two-state solution?
The two-state solution is a proposed framework for resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by establishing two separate states: one for the Jewish people (Israel) and one for the Palestinian people (a future Palestinian state). This approach aims to address the aspirations for self-determination of both groups while ensuring peace and security in the region. The solution typically envisions borders based on pre-1967 lines, with mutually agreed land swaps, and aims to resolve key issues such as the status of Jerusalem and the rights of refugees. Despite various negotiations, achieving a two-state solution has faced significant political, territorial, and social challenges.
