Abstract
The hostility of the Arab collectivity toward Israel is governed by two key emotions inherent in the Arab culture. Their defeat by Israel brought them shame, which can only be eliminated by revenge. Arabs fear domination and thus a strong Israel, but their fear of domination by other Arab factions prevents them from forming a joint offensive. The Arab-Israeli hostility is a classic case of culture conflict, which is a major reason why it has been so prolonged and intractable.
