No, they don't, you dolt.
They infight and backstab one another to great effect, keeping them totally fractious and letting external forces like Russian and the USA manipulate their conflicts for half a century
The muslim world is deeply divided and has, to the complete opposite effect of what you said, not been able to unite together in a common cause and stand against Israel or any other force
Which is exactly what groups like Al Qaeda want to accomplish in the long run, uniting the Arab peninsula under one banner- and they've been failing miserably at it.
They do not play well together and they do not come together in the "same bank", you clearly have no clue what is going on just inches outside your bubble world.
That is because Israel isn't a threat to Islam. They are a pain in the ass and a thorn in the side of some people there but they do not (nor does anything else) provide an existential threat to Islam in any shape or form.
Islam has done nothing but grow and grow for a very long time...there is no reason to believe that this will stop. Most of the world's Muslims live outside of the Middle East.
Saying that this Israel issue is Jew vs. Muslim is totally sensationalist and blowing things out of proportion. It is Israel vs. a few local powers. I'd rather let them handle it provided there aren't gross human rights abuses large enough to warrant action.
