While I dispute a few points in your essay, overall I agree. My biggest takeaway is that there must ultimately be a free state for the Palestinians alongside Israel. However, the path from here to there is far from simple, clear, or easy.

As I wrote elsewhere (https://medium.com/p/8ab238f447f0), and as you say, there is a breathtaking amount of ignorant arrogant posturing going on that needs to stop. Hopefully this essay will help a bit in that.
