In other words, their priority is to destroy Israel.

"For a nation as powerful as ours to be waging a war against a bunch of
unarmed nomads is such a horrendous, immoral, shameful spectacle that
I'm sure it will still draw the ire of the Almighty against us and our descendants."

Letter written by a US government agent and sent to President Lincoln (if I'm not mistaken) cited in the book "Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee".
I cited that extremely moving letter to make clear that in most ethnocratic conflicts the native population's desire to "destroy" the ethnocracy (which is real) is absolutely irrelevant, immaterial because the natives simply do not have the power to do so.
In all conflicts between natives and settlers, the ethnocracy created by the latter is infinitely more powerful than the natives otherwise it wouldn't have been able to create and defend a separate, exclusionary society in the homeland of the natives in the first place.
In America, Canada, Latin America, Australia, etc... the ethnocracies defeated the natives' armed struggle and were subsequently peacefully dismanted by a long-term process of self-criticism and social evolution on the part of the dominant ethnic groups.
In South Africa there was no such evolutionary process and the english-afrikaner racial dictatorship was peacefully dismantled due to intense international pressure, economic isolation, etc...
I'm not saying the opposition of the discriminated groups to the ethnocracy played no part in its dismantlement.
The US civil rights movement obviously hastened the process of self-criticism of the anglo elites that led to the disappearance of the last vestiges of the ethnocratic state created by the founders of the Republic 200 years ago.
There would be no incentive to isolate SA internationally if the Bantu peoples were perfectly satisfied with Apartheid.
But in none of the examples cited above the supremacist states were militarily defeated by the natives and it won't be any different in Palestine.
The palestinian arabs don't have the power to defeat Israel and never will.
In the absence of a major nuclear conflagration, the jewish racial dictatorship will be either peacefully dismantled (by self-criticism or international pressure (the latter being much more likely, IMO) or it will defeat the natives and consolidate itself (highly unlikely in my personal opinion).
