But when they refuse to even accept the very existence of their perceived enemy, the hostility can remain indefinitely, causing problems for both sides, and making war a realistic scenario. Take for example the case of the two Koreas.
Arab rejection of Israel has forced Israel to highly militarize itself in an effort to ward off its own eradication at the hands of those who have loudly called for its destruction. This contributes to the regional arms race.
Arab rejection of Israel has also been translated into thousands of attacks against Israel over the last seven decades, against which Israel defends itself, and these events become an ongoing vicious cycle.
