quote [ In May of 1948, the British mandate ended, the British withdrew, Israel declared its independence and then was instantly attacked [by] Arab armies
During the war, there were massacres of civilians by Israeli forces. The most infamous was Deir Yassin, a village right on the outskirts of Jerusalem ...two Arab towns near Tel Aviv ? Lod and Ramle. ] In his memoirs of 1948, Rabin writes that some of the Israeli soldiers refused to do it and that psychological counseling had to be done for the Israeli soldiers afterwards because it was such a traumatic experience for them. It occurred to me, that Rabin may have made concessions out of remorse for events in the 48 war, his position was so different from many Israelis.

The 30s and 40s especially offer some views on this with reluctance to escalation on many sides battled by a decade of aggressive media campaigns in the late 30s. Somehow, texts on this are rather sparse and academic, here's a clickbaity Slate article and a translated feature on German radio.

An Israeli general said a military solution is not possible, a solution must give Palestinians hope. The existing Israeli paradigm of the forced occupation of Gaza, West Bank and East Jerusalem has a poor record of offering security to Israelis.
