The ArabIsrael conflict, certainly from the establishment of the State of Israel until the signing of the peace treaty with Egypt in 1979, has often been described as pure, in the sense that the contenders are deemed to have almost irreconcilably opposing interests. Such an approach is particularly evident in perceptions of the war of 1948. On the one hand, the Israelis stubbornly persist in the belief that seven Arab armies set out to destroy the State of Israel immediately upon its establishment an absolute aim surely characteristic of conflict of a pure nature. On the other hand, among the Arabs, belief in the terrible injustice caused to the Arab world by the establishment of the State of Israel, and the need to eradicate that injustice, is as powerfully rooted.
