As it happens, I have an Arab friend (Caldean Iraqi) who doesn't have a problem with Israel's existence. He's American (and I suppose, American-ized in his worldview), though his family is also involved in trying to help Caldean communities in Iraq.
I acknowledge that this anecdote demonstrates relatively little, though, and I lack your confidence in extrapolating personal experiences into conclusions about what all Arabs think about Israel.
