The First Intifada resulted in numerous Palestinian and Israeli deaths but culminated in the Oslo Accords, recognizing the Palestinian Right to Self-Determination. The Second Intifada had no positive outcome, only death for both Palestinians and Israelis.
Answer 1Everyone is to blame for the continuing conflict. Israelis are continuing to build settlements in the West Bank and Blockade Gaza, preventing the Palestinians from properly developing a State of their own. Palestinian organizations like Hamas refuse to recognize Israel as a Jewish State. American benefactors support Israel without encouraging it to abandon the practice of the settlements. Arab Nations do not try to engage Israel openly and honestly and believe in holding the Palestinians in refugee camps while they continue to demand that Israel host all of the refugees, something which they know is a non-starter with Israel.Answer 2Palestine. the Israelis had control of the land first, but the Palestinians seized it from them thousands of years ago.Answer 3In basest terms: GodThe differences between the countries started out being religious, with each claiming that their own religion is the one that should have the region, it has since turned into a political issueAnswer 4God is to blame. As well as the Germans, British, Americans and French. And, of course, the Israelis and Palestinians
Answer 1Truthfully, most Israelis do not hate the Palestinians, they simply don't get along with them. The reason is because of an ancient feud that started when Israel's first Patriarch, Abraham had a son by another woman. This son named Ishmael became the father of the Arabian peoples. Abraham's full blood son, Isaac was the one who inherited the promise of the land of Israel But since Ishmael is "technically" also the son of Abraham, the Palestinians claim that they have the promise of god for the Land.So they "hate" each other simply because they have a feud over who the land Israel belongs to.Answer 2What Israelis are angry about as concerns Arabs in general, and Palestinians in particular, is their consistent denial of historical wrongdoing and segregation (such as the dhimmi status, the jizya and kharaj taxes, and humiliation in general), their failure to educate their children in the virtue of tolerance (instead teaching them literalist Qur'anic interpretations which inform them that Jews are the children of swine and that jihad will not end until all Jews die), the promulgation of anti-Semitic teachings (such as the Protocols of Zion and Holocaust-Denial), their toleration of torture and other vast human rights abuses of their own people, and a failure to accept the validity of a Jewish State.However, most Israelis would tell you that they do not hate the Palestinians, they only hate those Palestinians who have dedicated their lives to the murder of Israeli citizens.
The agreement between Mussolini and the Catholic Church is known as the Lateran Treaty, you may read about it at the first link below, and see it at the second link.
The agreement was called the Treaty of Tordesillas. It did not divide wealth specifically, rather it was the first attempt to divide the spheres of influence in the New World between Portugal and Spain.
The Palestinians and the Israelis were the main people who were involved with the first intifada.
English is not used commonly between Israelis (who use Hebrew and Arabic to speak to each other), but the vast majority of Israelis can speak English well enough to talk to travelers. In terms of a general idea. Fewer Israelis speak English than Dutchmen, but more than Germans.

The Israelis have more powerful weaponry than the Palestinians. -- Israel is a nation, with a parliamentary government comprised of democratically elected representatives, a highly respected judicial system, a first-world economy, and a strong military comprised of army, navy, and air force elements. -- "The Palestinians" are just that ... a group of people, living on lands that are parts of Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, and Syria, none of which countries grant them citizenship, under one government elected 10 years ago, and another one that conquered part of their area by violent force, with a marginal economy propped up by support from the Arab countries, the USA, Israel, and others, and certainly without any organized military establishment.

Almost every type of Arab Israeli considers himself to be a part of the Arab People in the same way that German Americans still consider themselves to be ethnically German even though they do not live inside of a German State (such as Germany, Austria, or Switzerland). The more pertinent question is whether they see Israel as their State of Citizenship in a positive light or a more positive light than they would see having the citizenship of an extant Arab State or Palestine. The majority of Israeli Arabs consider themselves ethnically Palestinian. (Note that a minority of Arab Israelis do NOT consider themselves Palestinians and do not identify with that society, but all Palestinians at this point in history are Arabs.) They hold Israeli citizenship but are forbidden from serving in the Israeli Army. (This is as opposed to Jewish Israelis and some other Arab Israelis who are required to serve in the Israeli Army.) Within Israel, they often talk of how disgruntled (to put it mildly) they are with the current political structure and the treatment of the non-Israeli citizen Palestinians. Regardless of any disagreement that ethnically Palestinian Arab Israelis may have with the State of Israel, the vast majority, if pushed to answer, would not give up their Israeli citizenship for the citizenship of any other Arab State. This sentiment, combined with the fact that they pay Israeli taxes, work at Israeli companies, and carry Israeli passports makes Arabs outside of Israel see these Arab Israelis as Israelis first and Arab second. Concurrently, since Israel is by law a Jewish State, the ethnically Palestinian Arab Israelis are seen by most Jewish Israelis as Arabs first and Israelis second. Caught in the middle, most ethnically Palestinian Arab Israelis feel that although they are Israeli citizens, they are truly Arabs in a foreign state. As concerns Arab Israelis who are not ethnically Palestinian, such as the Druze and Bedouins and other minorities which are called Arab Israelis by laymen even though they are not Arab such as Circassians and Armenians, the situation is markedly different. These Arab Israelis (which cumulatively form less than 5% of the Arab Israeli population) have declared sole loyalty to the State of Israel and consider themselves Israeli non-Jewish citizens. The Druze and Circassians put their men in the mandatory Israeli Army draft pool and a number of Bedouin voluntarily join the Israeli Army as trackers. They have little to no interest in joining with other Arab Nations. Note: There are certainly exceptions, but this is the general answer.
Aside from this question making little sense, the most likely interpretation of this question is a difficult one. Q: Do Arab Israelis consider themselves to belong to the Arab People or to Israel? A: Almost every type of Arab Israeli considers himself to be a part of the Arab People in the same way that German Americans still consider themselves to be ethnically German even though they do not live inside of a German State (such as Germany, Austria, or Switzerland). The more pertinent question is whether they see Israel as their State of Citizenship in a positive light or a more positive light than they would see having the citizenship of an extant Arab State or Palestine.

First, it depends on the sense in which "Israel" is intended. It can be a reference to the modern Jewish State or it can be a reference to the Israelites in the Bible. If you are talking about the modern country, in many cases, heroes have strong political baggage attached to them. So, while a person might be a hero to a group of Israelis, he or she may be equally reviled by a different community of Israelis. There are probably five Israelis who are heroes to the vast majority of Israelis, listed in order of birth: Chaim Weizmann (leader of the Zionist Congress and one of the major forces that brought about Israel's existence), David Ben-Gurion (first Prime Minister of Israel and heir to Weizmann's chair), Aubrey "Abba" Eban (Israel's first UN Ambassador), Moshe Dayan (one of Israel's most important generals), and Yitzhak Rabin (Six Day War general and Prime Minister assassinated during peace negotiations with the Palestinians).
