Why is Islam dedicated to destroying Israel? Because it is one of the dominate horns of the fourth beast as well as the Little Horn and has given its resources over to the Little Horn to trample God's Sanctuary and His earthly Hosts.

Simply by reading the scriptures and connecting the dots by understanding the conveyed context embedded within the scriptures.

And by your response, there is still an element of doubt in your mind that what I have hinted at is true.
Historically, Islam torn out of the country, where it was originally established, three other religions that were practiced within that region.

Behold, Interesting. I don't know much about Islam just the basics about how they deny Christ and of two sects. Q for you if you don't mind?
So this fanatical belief is all Shi’ite's or just a segment of the Shi’ites? Sunni's do not hold to this?
I ask because I keep half an eye on Muslim persecutions of Christians globally. I don't know if it's the same Muslim sect or not. A very recent one was in Syria where they bombed a church during services and killed 23 injuring over 60. It was the Greek Orthodox Mar Elias Church in Damascus. That was about a week ago.- a suicide bomber.
Same group or no?
It's also is happening in India ( muslims and hindus) and in Africa.

not doubt, I have seen from previous posts you are knowledgeable, I am not well versed in end time prophecy but am learning. many prophecies intertwine and I have not yet figured them out by lack of historical knowledge but certainly Islamic countries will be part of the end times such as turkey, Iran and others as well. It is difficult to figure out who "and the other horn which came up, before which three fell," are.
5 “I, Daniel, was grieved in my spirit [g]within my body, and the visions of my head troubled me. 16 I came near to one of those who stood by, and asked him the truth of all this. So he told me and made known to me the interpretation of these things: 17 ‘Those great beasts, which are four, are four [h]kings which arise out of the earth. 18 But the saints of the Most High shall receive the kingdom, and possess the kingdom forever, even forever and ever.’
19 “Then I wished to know the truth about the fourth beast, which was different from all the others, exceedingly dreadful, with its teeth of iron and its nails of bronze, which devoured, broke in pieces, and trampled the residue with its feet; 20 and the ten horns that were on its head, and the other horn which came up, before which three fell, namely, that horn which had eyes and a mouth which spoke [i]pompous words, whose appearance was greater than his fellows.
21 “I was watching; and the same horn was making war against the saints, and prevailing against them, 22 until the Ancient of Days came, and a judgment was made in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came for the saints to possess the kingdom.
23 “Thus he said:
‘The fourth beast shall be
A fourth kingdom on earth,
Which shall be different from all other kingdoms,
And shall devour the whole earth,
Trample it and break it in pieces.
24 The ten horns are ten kings
Who shall arise from this kingdom.
And another shall rise after them;
He shall be different from the first ones,
And shall subdue three kings.
25 He shall speak pompous words against the Most High,
Shall persecute[j] the saints of the Most High,
And shall intend to change times and law.
Then the saints shall be given into his hand
For a time and times and half a time.
26 ‘But the court shall be seated,
And they shall take away his dominion,
To consume and destroy it forever.
27 Then the kingdom and dominion,
And the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven,
Shall be given to the people, the saints of the Most High.
His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
And all dominions shall serve and obey Him.’
28 “This is the end of the [k]account. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts greatly troubled me, and my countenance changed; but I kept the matter in my heart.”
Cheers.

Daniel 7 can be broken down into two separate time phases for the events described in the chapter.
verses 1-12 spans many years from the time that the beasts started to stir up the sea of humanity up to the end of the sixth age, which will occur in around 20 years' time when the fallen heavenly hosts, the four winds of heaven, and the Little Horn will be judged and imprisoned for a season and then released for the Little While period. Between verse 18 and 19, there is a period of 1,000 years, which is the summer season of the great harvest of souls, after which an angel unlocks the prison and allows the Beasts/Winds of Heaven, the Little Horn/false Prophet and the judged king of the earth at Armageddon to be released from the Bottomless pit and during the Little while period they including Satan will attempt to overcome God and His purpose for Mankind before they are captured and dispatched into the Lake of Fire.
The Beast of Daniel 7:19ff is an amalgamation of the four beasts of Daniel 7:1-12 who all act in unison to undo what happened while they were in prison in the Bottomless pit.
The religion of Islam may survive without any spiritual influence during the summer season that the Beasts and Satan are imprisoned in the Bottomless pit for 1,000 years.
When Jesus is given dominion over all of the peoples of the earth in Daniel 7:13-14, it is recorded that the people of the earth should worship Christ if they chose too. In the Parable of the Talents and Minas Satan's Good and Faithful Servants will endeavour to impede the peoples of the earth from becoming an integral part of God's Everlasting Kingdom, however, because of the activity of Satan, the beast and the False Prophet during the Little While period, many people who are alive during this time, will fall away but those who hold strong and send their roots down into His Fertile Soil/field, they will inherit the whole earth and live with God on the earth to worship Him with all of their strength.
It may all sound complicated, but God's salvation plan is very simple. Simple embed ourselves in God's fertile field to draw all of our nourishment from God alone as described in the Parable of the Sower. It is the only place to be safely embarrassed in His love to receive His promises for eternity.
Shalom
Okay, but that is a different subject, and I was not sabre-rattling! My post was more in keeping with this discussion about "why Islam is dedicated to destroying Israel". God speaks of the perpetual hatred between Esau and Jacob (Israel) because Jacob took Esau's birthright and his blessing - Genesis 27:35-41 (WEB):
(35) He {Isaac} said, “Your brother came with deceit, and has taken away your blessing.”
(36) He said, “Isn’t he rightly named Jacob? {supplanter} For he has supplanted me these two times. He took away my birthright. See, now he has taken away my blessing.” He said, “Haven’t you reserved a blessing for me?”
(37) Isaac answered Esau, “Behold, I have made him your lord, and all his brothers I have given to him for servants. I have sustained him with grain and new wine. What then will I do for you, my son?”
(38) Esau said to his father, “Do you have you just one blessing, my father? Bless me, even me also, my father.” Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.
(39) Isaac his father answered him, “Behold, of the fatness of the earth will be your dwelling, and of the dew of the sky from above.
(40) By your sword will you live, and you will serve your brother. It will happen, when you will break loose, that you shall shake his yoke from off your neck.”
(41) Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father blessed him. Esau said in his heart, “The days of mourning for my father are at hand. Then I will kill my brother Jacob.”
That hatred has been perpetual to this day.
