Does that preclude Palestine's right to exist though? Palestinian peoples' sovereignty?

Because currently Israel appears to be doing everything in its power to prevent that.

If they can determine another nation doesn't have the right to exist, using Might Is Right, why should the rest of the world accept their right to exist?

    it certainly doesn't and attempts to resolve this have been happening under the international framework where both things are recognized for many decades now... If we had a system that was able to enforce the ideas uniformly instead of the current deeply flawed one where great powers still hold veto over any issue they want it could be that Israel would be prevented from doing that.
