Why there is war in the Middle East always?

Answer 1

Has anyone thought that this whole war may be a simple misunderstanding?

I’ve been thinking about some things that I have been seeing here. I read a comment earlier that stated that all Muslims are terrorists and I wanted to open this topic.
First thing I would like to bring up is that our system is based on the separation of church and state. Our language, the way we believe and the way we conduct ourselves is determined by our society. Our ability to understand is limited to our sociological experience. Islam is the combination of church and state. When you make that the baseline of society things are a little different. The Arabic language itself cannot be truly translated to English because of the basis for it’s creation. The language often references the inshalllah “if god wills it”. Let me site an example:
Think about freedom of religion. If our right to be whatever we want here was infringed upon, well we would go to court.
In the muslim world, when they say “You are infringing on Islam” basically means that you are causing a general oppression of the people. It does not mean we are trying to keep them from practicing their religion, which we take it to mean. Why would they say that?
Take for example Afghanistan. During the cold war we financed the rebellion against the soviet oppressors. Then, when the soviets pulled out we did too. Suddenly those farmers and nomads who had become dependant on our supplies to survive where left in the desert to eat rocks. Combine that with the incredible power of an illiterate society and a well educated madman and you bread some resentment. Generally society seems to point fingers instead of finding a solution. This is true on both sides of the fences. There is something else that is true on both sides of the fence. WE ARE ALL HUMANS. The truth is if I ever met one of these folks, I bet we could sit down and talk, and in the end no one would fight. I think that is what we should do. As Americans I think we should give them a chance to explain what they perceive that we are doing to them and address the issues one at a time. IF we have wronged people around the world I think we should man up and offer a hand. We can’t do anything to change what has happened, but we can go from this point forward and start healing these bridgeable gaps by opening our ears to their cries and our eyes to our actions. WE NEED TO KNOW what our government has been doing around the world. I think about my own social circle. If just about everybody was pissed at me I might look at myself and see what it is I am doing that is pissing people off. My general experience is that people don’t get pissed at me unless I do something for them to be pissed at.
Don’t judge a book by it’s cover. Tolerance and understanding can only lead to peace.

What can we do to help? What kind of business could we help them get into that would actually help? After all we know for these depressed nations to get out of it they need industry. It is time for us to stop talking about global responsibility and respond globally.

Answer 2

In truth is it the fault of the West and Russia.
In 1917 UK + France divided the Middle East into countries along lines designed to make each country weakest, so that UK and France could pillage their resources. After that, UK, France and US installed puppet dictators in all the ME countries, so that they can pocket some bribe money and allow US UK and France to take the big money.

This is the reason the Middle East did not join the rest of us in the 21 century.
Radical Islam is the response to the very real things that happened to them.
It is the only venue where they can feel respected and independent.
It is the only venue that feels truthful to them, as they have been lied to by their governments and by foreign government for decades.
The reason they are so prone to believing crackpot conspiracy theories is that so many real conspiracies occurred in the ME.

UK an France are too afraid to publicly admit this and apologize, even though there is no argument in the academic arena as to what happened, because they don't want to attract even more terrorist attacks directed at them.

And let's not forget the Russian involvement - the KGB and Andropov ran an operation in the 1950s where they've translated Mein Kampf and the Protocols of the Elders of Zion to Arabic, and distributed it among Arabic intellectuals as real historic documents. Cynically as these documents were deeply despised by the Russians, but they accurately assessed the Arabs will be too culturally weak to resist them. Then they taught them how to be terrorists - how to build and operate cells, secure communications, tradecraft, explosives and arms. The Russians intentionally molded them into terrorist organizations, with the intention of causing as much damage as possible to the US, and then secondary intention of creating a market for Russian arms. Both goals were realized magnificently.

The result is, that Middle Easterners:
- Have no trust in their states
- Have no trust in the world
- Have a tradition of dictatorships
- Have a tradition of terrorism
- Have a mind frame of conpiracy and racism

1st People are poor, uneducated and live in very stresfull situations. They you tell them that religion will solve all of their problems. Rest the "50 Year war" A pbs documentary that shows you whats been going on with isreal and palistine over the years. Jews ran from the Holocost into arab lands and basicly stole the land for their country. The arabs were pissed. The us supports the jews because of the hell they went through durring the holocust. The Palistinians want the jews out. The idea of making them all move now is crazy. Where would they go? They're also fighting over holy lands. As long as there are palistinians who fight to remove the jews from their land and the jews don't move their whole country there could be war.
Everyone else involved is arguing about who to support.
