Answer 1
Your question is one-sided. Israel is defending itself from terrorism. Did you forget that? I have friends in the Israeli army and they list for me every day the rock-throwing incidents, the bombs defused, the suicide-bombers detained, etc.
Israel goes to great lengths to try to avoid collateral casualties.
Answer 2
First, while the Israeli army and individual Israelis may be Jews, it is important to note that the actual two parties are Israelis and Palestinians, not Jews and Arabs. There are many Jews who do not fight in the Israeli military because of religious obligations or health reasons, and there are many Arabs who do fight in the Israeli Army either by choice or by conscription.
As concerns Israelis killing Palestinians, there is an important distinction between actuality and intentionality. Actuality is what occurs, regardless of desires; and intentionality is purpose and rationale. There is certainly an actuality that the Israeli Army has been responsible for the death of Palestinian civilians and militants and there is also certainly an actuality that Palestinian Militant and Terror Organizations have caused the death of Palestinian civilians or militants, as well as having killed many Israeli citizens and soldiers. It is very important to note, however, that there is no intention in the Israeli Army, no memorandum, and no official or unofficial desire to kill Palestinian non-combatants. The deaths of Palestinian civilians are regrettable and if the violence were to cease on both sides, Palestinian civilians would not have to worry about being embroiled in a conflict where both their country and another could end them. As for militants, Israel has a duty to protect its own citizens and does not apologize for engaging its violent adversaries.

According to Jewish and Arab tradition, the Jews descend from Abraham following the line of his son Isaac and the Arabs descend from Abraham following the line of his son Ishmael. So it may be said that Jews and Arabs had a common beginning. In terms of what science can tell us, while Jews have a strong genetic relationship to Levantine Arabs (Arabs in Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria), they do not have a strong genetic relationship with Arabian Arabs (who were the original Arabs and live in the Arabian Peninsula).
