Where did the whites go when the Apartheid government fell in South Africa? Most of them stayed, and despite truly believing they would all be murdered if non-whites were given equal right,s they shockingly weren't. I'm from the American South. The end of slavery was not the end of "Southern Culture," the end of segregation was not the end of Southern culture, and even the popular distaste for KKK violence didn't end anything that shouldn't have ended. Palestinians aren't monsters, and have more to fear in an equal state that current Israelis would.
