I doubt they do, although due to there overwhelming advantages in military
strength the odds of an Israeli dying a violent death at the hands of a
Palestinian are quite low, and the average Israeli's quality of life is much
much better than that of the average Palestinian.

Which is kind of sad. If the Palestineans allowed sanity to rule for a
year, they too could have a good material life. Do recall what life in
Lebanon was like before Black September. The Christians and Moslems did
not exactly love each other, but they did -business- as opposed to
killing. The result was called the Switzerland of the middle east.
Lebanon would be a prosperous country today, if Palestinean crazies had
not invaded and ruined their thing.
