Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, and Iraq sent their armies to destroy Israel in 1948. They were complemented by regiments from Saudi Arabia and Yemen. There were other countries that provided tacit support or smuggled in weapons, but by and large, the Palestinian cause would not rise to international prominence until the 1960s.
As for the Community Answer, the number of countries that recognize the Palestinian Authority today is much closer to 135 and the overwhelming majority of those countries (including Brazil, India, Russia, and China) also recognize Israel, so to claim that these countries wish to crush Israel is incorrect.

Who supports a Jewish homeland in Palestine?
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.
Did the Arab Palestinians attempt to crush the new Jewish state?
Several times. Many wars were started against the (then) newly created state, such as the war of independence and the six day war. To this day, Palestinian terror organizations such as Hamas call for the destruction of Israel.

Who are Jewish settlers?
AnswerJewish settlers are Jewish people from different world countries who migrated to the Palestinian lands and settled there through installing settlements for their own residence on behalf of the Palestinians. They built settlements even in the West Bank that Israel promised to be given back to the Palestinians to establish their independent state.
Why is it so important to many Israelis and Jews outside of Israel that the Palestinian Authority call Israel a Jewish State?
This is the recognition of Israel's mission for the Jewish people. Israel is a nation-state in the 19th century understanding of that term. This is in much the same way that Germany, Italy, Armenia, and many other countries are nation-states. Nobody questions Germany's right to maintain an ethnic-German majority in Germany or to base German laws on German cultural values. It is self-understood that if Germany wished to close its border to immigration, they could do so and maintain an ethnically German state. (They technically cannot close the border to EU migrations because of EU Law, but most immigrants to Germany are from countries outside of the EU.) However, there is a strong push to allow resettlement of Palestinian refugees and their descendants into Israel, which would violate the Jewish national culture of the State of Israel. The entire purpose of the State of Israel is to create a State for Jews in both the sense that it is a place where they can live and a place permeated by Jewish values. The recognition by the Palestinian Authority that Israel is a Jewish State would be an implicit acquiescence to what Israel requires as the basis of Israeli-Palestinian negotiations: Palestine should be the State of the Palestinian Arabs. Palestine should be responsible for resettling the refugees of its people, not Israel. It is because of this very implication that the Palestinian Authority has resisted calling Israel the Jewish State.
