    I'm with you on the Israeli state, but I don't think any state in the middle east knows how to play well with others.

    Look at the history of the area and you will see more wars and uprisings than other place on the planet. That has been a persistent problem for thousands upon thousands of years. The area is beset by familial, tribal, political and religious intolerance as evidenced by the multitude of political parties with every imaginable mix of liberal and conservative views that seem to contest every democratic election held in the region.

    It's unlikely that peace will prevail in this area any time soon. A long term (50-100 years) PR war both overt and covert needs to be held to change the popular mindset in favour of peace and harmony. You need to find the right political and religious leaders to preach for peace and somehow nullify or silence the warmongers – not likely!

    • Of course Europe used to be like that too right?ukit
    • Europe still is, but to nowhere near the same extent.Amicus
