"How can you treat fairly and equally a population that has declared all your structures of law and civilisation are legitimate targets?"

But it isn't the Arab population of Israel that has declared anything like that, is it, Al? In fact, populations don't do that sort of thing in any case. Belligerent and idiotic leaders, well that's different. And I'd also say that treating people without discrimination is far more likely to make people see that your structures of law and civilisation are far more worthy of respect. Chicken and egg.
