Most Arabs and most Arab countries are opposed to the recognition of the State of Israel and have actively tried to persuade other countries to stop (or never begin) recognizing the State of Israel. They see recognizing Israel as legitimizing the existence of that country and most Arabs and Arab countries would immensely prefer that Israel is not in existence. Rather than make peace, have mutual recognition and increase trade in their countries, Arab leaders would rather harbor a belligerent attitude because it prevents their citizens from rising up against them.
Israel represents many negative things to to the Arab nations such as, Arab repression, Jewish ascendance, Western Imperialism, and Division of the Unified Arab Lands.
You placed your question in the "Israel" category. It seems a bit weird that you should choose to ask the country that was attacked why the attackers keep attacking, rather than ask the attackers. But since the question is here, I'll tell you what I think the answer is. It's my personal impression and opinion, and I could be wrong. After that, I hope somebody who represents the attackers will see this, and will tell us that my impression is right or wrong, and if it's wrong, tell us the real reason that they keep attacking. My impression is that the reason they keep attacking is that after more than sixty years, neither the governments nor their people can yet make their peace with the concept, and cannot accept the existence of a Jewish country in their neighborhood.
Mexico recognizes Israel as a free state, making specific and noteworthy trade agreements and military treaties with the country. However, the country does support UN resolutions, such as the one condemning Israel's actions in Gaza in 2004.
A number of countries support this view, not the least of which is Israel itself, the "Jewish Homeland in Palestine". Israel is also supported primarily by the United States and other Western countries. However, tacit support, by way of recognition, has been given to Israel by all non-Islamic UN countries except North Korea and by several Islamic countries.
The Palestinian Arabs were frustrated and aggrieved. They believed (and many still do) that all of the land belonged to them and being forced to share it with an invader from outside of the country would be ridiculous. The UN Partition Plan in particular accorded the Jewish State much more land than the Jews controlled at that time and was seen as catering to their interests. In fact, the Jewish State was 56% of the overall land. The Arabs completely rejected the plan. Additionally, the creation of Israel directly resulted in the Jewish-Arab Engagement of 1947-1949 which resulted in 720,000 Palestinians becoming refugees. This event is commemorated by Palestinians are the Nakba or Great Catastrophe. The Israeli Jews were very excited by the creation of Israel which they saw as the realization of nearly 70 years of nationalist endeavors and nearly 2000 years of yearning for Jewish self-rule in Israel. In their view, it was a momentous occasion that would see the end of the Diasporic History of Judaism and create a true, unified polity of Jews from around the world. With the pain of the Holocaust so close, Israeli independence also provided many Jews with the sense that they would now be the defenders of their own of country, and not the victims of governments beyond their control. Israeli Independence Day is a huge celebration within Israel and Israel's Memorial Day is an important day whose commemoration occurs the day before Independence Day.
The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict started as early as the 1920s between the New Yishuv (proto-Israel) and the Levantine Arabs (proto-Palestinians). Even the Intifada, which is the most clearly Israeli-Palestinian confrontation since the Arab-Israeli War of 1948-9, began in 1987. The Intifada began as an organized violent resistance to the Israeli military occupation of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, with the intent of forcing Israel to end the Occupation (and hopefully, in their view, bequeath all of Israel to the Palestinians).

The issue, like most comes, from two very different base assertions that are not acknowledged by the other party as either being accurate or being important. Jews believe that there is no country that can guarantee their freedom other than a country of their own and that the Land of Israel is holy. Arabs contend that the entire Levant belonged to them for 800 years and that people of European origin should not immigrate to Arab lands. Understandably, when you start with different premises, you reach different conclusions.
They had babies....and lots of them.
No, there currently is no pay per view boxing available for TV viewing in Israel

It's recognised by NATO and the UN. So I'd say yes. As for personal opinion that depends on how you view things.
At this time there was no state called 'Israel', but it refered to the people. The Holocaust changed the world view in that there was more sympathy for there to be a state for the people of Israel.
As a Christian festival.

Jerusalem, as the country is Israel. Many people follow the international view that Tel Aviv is the capital of Israel, but since the Israeli government sits in Jerusalem and the 1980 Jerusalem Law makes Jerusalem the unequivocal capital of Israel, Jerusalem is the correct answer.
they said it was a great experience after being in Israel
