Much airtime on news programs are devoted to reporting wars between shiites and muslims, israelis and palestines, you can see and hear about this type of conflict in almost any country. What can be done to end this division between human kind?

Stop classifying and categorising. Stop even calling someone a Jew or a Palestinian or for that matter a racist. Just as an example, if you are a non-something someone who is a something will try to stop you praying in their place of worship. The problem here is not that you have a problem with GOD or that GOD has a problem with you. After all you are there to pray and it must probably be to GOD. The problem is somebody classify you as a non-something and says that you cannot pray there and that classification starts the resentment because you are now excluded from a place of worship. We should stop this practice and learn to embrace all and that if someone who is willing to walk into our ground we should welcome him whatever his views are. This does not mean that you do not react when you are trampled on. Remember your right to swing your arm ends where my nose begins.

Pray. Lead by example. How you treat others does have an impact. Show people from less fortunate countries how much you care by supporting a child or two through Plan USA, Christian Children's Fund, etc. Go to a third world country and volunteer.

This challenge is only going to be solved 1 person at a time, by numerous people at a time. Example from real life:
I live in a very small former coal mining town in PA. There are TWO black families that do not live in state subsidized housing. Both of these families are hard working, personable, and law-abiding, and have no wish to cause any trouble. The families in the one state subsidized housing are (almost all) the exact opposite, so the two I am talking about have a hard way to go. To make matters worse, the area I live in is VERY anti-anyone not white, as it has been almost exclusively white forever.
Well, I met them both through friends, and introduced them to my kids, who happened to be walking by with their friends, and said hello, who said hello when they were with their other friends, and so on.
I was walking by the one's house with my girlfriend at the time, and remembered I had to talk to him about something, and introduced him to my girl, who saw him at the store while she was with her mother, and introduced them, etc.
While both of these families are still not totally accepted, more and more people are beginning to accept them because their friends and family are accepting them.
and THAT is how things are going to change. One person at a time.

Get rid of 99.9% of all the people, and seperate the rest into small groups around the world. repeat the process every few hundred years. That's about all you are going to be able to do, until the world smartens up and teaches everyone everything they can learn.

Well, you can either get rid of the humans, or have everyone's eyes plucked out when they are born. Humans have a bad habit of judging many things by what they see, without first getting more relevant information.

Well. . .if some of the races started acting like humans then maybe we could. Maybe if the blacks stopped killing everyone. . .selling drugs. . . raping women. . . .and etc maybe people wouldn't be racist towards them. Look at 50 cent. . . what an absolute piece of garbage for a human he is. . .yet. . . he is a hero to the black culture. . . I think that says it all.

if everybody stayed in their own countries then there would be no racism. this doesnt answer the question of isreal and palistine though, as they are nomads and dont have a home country, which started the problem.

the news tells you what they want you to know, and that helps to direct what people think of others. end the way news directs how people think, and you've got a good start.

IT STARTS WITH HOME AND SOCIETY. WHEN YOU ARE "PROGRAMMED" TO HATE OR DISLIKE OTHERS BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU "HEAR" FROM PEOPLE AROUND YOU THEN THAT BECOMES PART OF WHAT YOU BELEIVE. LET'S ALL NOT PREJUDGE OTHERS AND TAKE TIME TO LEARN ABOUT OTHER PEOPLES CULTURES AND CUSTOMS. "PREJUDICE IS SIMPLY PREJUDGING WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW. COMPASSION IS ALSO A BIG PART OF HEALING.
