That would be like the USA saying, gee why are ISIS so hostile against us, must be their religious propaganda, because we've never shown anyone in the region harm. Maybe the religious propaganda works because folks are already angry and want a channel it.

Any rational person can see that both sides do lots of things wrong. There are elements on both sides that want to wipe the other side out. From an amoral perspective, both sides would likely be better off if the other didn't exist. With the history between the two peoples, it's going to create movements that don't have much sympathy for the other side.
