As you say, there is a host of other reasons, enough to fill a book. One aspect that I feel is too often ignored in this debate is the fact that the Arabs themselves recognized the Jews as a people when they responded to the UN partition plan in 1947 by drafting legislation that would strip Jewish citizens of Arab state of many of their rights and much of their property.
