Well, we're going to determine that right now, by taking a closer look at your argument.
This war started as a result of years of jewish colonial expansion in Palestine in areas they were not given in the Mandate. Over 750,000 people, who were the indigenous population in that area for over a 1000 years, were driven from their land by jewish terrorist groups like Irgun. Since the British government threw up their hands and said they weren't going to enforce the law in that area, which was to ensure the Palestinian's right to self-determination, the arab states stepped in to do just that. But they didn't have a very good military and the zionists did.
So the war was not un-provoked and started by arabs.
Score: your 0-1.

So you're wrong there.

Sorry, Israel launched a bombing raid and officially initiated hostilities.
You struck out on that one, too.
Score: your 0-3.
At first glance, you may have scored on this one, since it was a surprise attack against Israel.
However, the attack was a result of Israel not giving up their occupation of land they seized in the '67 war. Which was illegal. So, one can conclude, if Israel obeyed international law and ended their occupation of land that wasn't their's, there wouldn't have been a war.
So I'm gonna call this, victim precipitated violence.
Score: your 0-4.
An occupational force cannot claim self-defense.
Score: your 0-5.

If the Arabs (Moslems) put down their weapons today there would be no more violence. If the Israelis put down their weapons today there would be no more Israel.

Now let's review...
You got F'ed in the A!
Looks like you been working hard loincloth, hope you didn't spend to much time on it...
Israel became a nation about 1300 BCE, two thousand years before the rise of Islam. The people of modern day Israel share the same language and culture shaped by the Jewish heritage and religion passed through generations starting with the founding father Abraham. Since the Jewish conquest in 1272 BCE, the Jews have had dominion over the land for one thousand years with a continuous presence in the land for the past 3,300 years.
There goes your occupation theory, took me 6 sec...
So the Native American tribes should reclaim their land?
