Conflicts between the Arabs and Israelis go back to biblical times. They have influenced the history of North Africa and the Middle East by having a constant state of conflict and unrest.
The conflict in general is called the Arab-Israeli Conflict. The particular war that erupted due to the Arab Rejection of Israel's Declaration of Independence was the Arab-Israeli War of 1948-9, alternately called the Nakba by Arabs and the Independence War by Israelis.
As counter-intuitive as it might be, the two groups involved in the Arab-Israeli Conflict are the Arabs and the Israelis.
Each side is unwilling to make serious concessions to permit the survival and thriving of the opposite culture and society.
The closest to conflict that Arabs and Israelis have in the Diaspora is competing political lobbies and occasional riots (more often Arabs against Jews or Israelis than the reverse, especially in Europe).

Since 20% of Israelis are Arabs, the two groups have some overlap, but if the question refers exclusively to non-Israeli Arabs and Israelis, there is a tense and violent political and economic relationship. On a personal level, there are some Arab-Israeli relationships.
