Generally, Yes. Specifically, No.
The Arab-Israeli Conflict is primarily about which government (or governments) should be operating in the former British Mandate of Palestine. The overriding question is whether there should exclusively be a Jewish State, exclusively be an Arab State, be some sort of bi-national State, or if there should be two or more states where some are Jewish States and some are Arab States.
The reason for the "Generally, Yes - Specifically, No" above is that many pro-Palestinians reject calling what is currently Israel-proper Israel and many Israelis, Palestinians, and others reject calling the West Bank and the Gaza Strip (which are also in contention) part of Israel.
