Palestinians and Arabs should just let bygones be bygones. Keep living in those camps. Smile! Better, how about a frontal assault on Israeli army positions? Or... how about scrambling the Palestinian Air Force to take on the Jewish jets?
Perhaps an old fashioned tank battle would be more fun for you? The Palestinians probably could field several hundred 70s era cars, covered with tin sheets, and bristling with AK-47s. Fearsome indeed to the state-of-the-art Israeli iron.
By omitting the reason Arabs/Farsis hate Israel you betray your prejudices. Equating them with Nazis? Uh, who took whose property and is locking the people up in concentration camps?
You may wish to study a bit of the region's history to find out how Jews in that area were treated BEFORE they began to create the religious state of Israel. It further may interest you to find out how much of the current population of Israel indeed are first or second generation immigrants (aside: Palestinians have been there for thousands of years).
Spielberg's film is not-so-cleverly disguised propaganda and a poor film to boot. It is to be expected you'd be overwhelmed with its equanimity.
Now, see "Paradise Now" and report back.
