>I think the hostilities have run in both directions. The main resentment of the Palestinians, and other Arabs, is Israel's insistence that territory that is equally sacred to Muslims belongs to Israel only. Let's not forget Mossad death squads or Israel building settlements in areas that are 99% Arab. No one is claiming the Palestinians are blameless or condoning terrorism. But Israel is not blameless, either.
Figured some actual history would be useful here. I've read a good chunk of this, and my take is that it's neutral to leaning-anti-Israel; it seems to do a good job of laying out the history.
