Ends versus means. The goal is the destruction of Israel by whatever works.

It's instructive to follow the career of Arafat. He started as a conventional soldier against Israel. Then a guerilla, then a terrorist, then a diplomat (sort of), now a dictator-diplomat-terrorist. As each method failed to destroy Israel he moved on to something else. The goal remains the same. Plus getting rich.

Wars are started with the goal to win.

Arabs lost all conventional wars against Israel. Now they think they are winning the Intifada war. They need to be proved wrong, because they think they have a good chance. People who think that there is no military solution to the Mideast conflict don't understand how Arabs think and don't believe what Arabs say loud and clear.

There must be a complete military victory over PA, i.e. its removal or dismantling, with all leaders killed. Then there can be peace talks.
