Actually, diplomats do indeed sit down and talk. They make agreements. Then they break the agreements and fight. Talking and agreements solve nothing. It does not end death, destruction and doom.
Perhaps if the Messiah were to show up at the talks something might be accomplished.

Because the feud between the Jews and the Islamic-Arabic peoples has been going on since the days of Isaac and Ishmael, thousands of years, and the level of hatred is intense and acerbated by current US Middle East policies.
There will be no peace, no cessation of terrorism, unless the United States takes a more objective and unbiased approach and the United Nations brokers a Palestinian State.
Further, Iraq needs to be separated into three nations, for the Kurds, the Sunnis and the Shiites as brokered by the United Nations working with the Arab community.
Further, the United States needs to withdraw from Afghanistan. Osama has not been found in years and probably never will be found.
The United States needs to stop meddling in the business of other nations, trying to foist our ways of governance on them.

That will happen when pigs fly. There has been war in the Middle East for over a thousand years (remember from your history, The Crusades). It will probably go on an other thousand

That is the challenge - to make them come to the negotiating table. And a challenge indeed. But you simply can't blame them blindly, need to analyse the other side also. What I meant is what happened during the cold-war era. It'll be a long story, you can do a Master's thesis on this alone.

Because the only acceptable answer for the majority of the Middle East is for all Iraelis to die. I don't think Israel wants to go that far in negotiations.

Doesn't it seem silly? I wish they would watch the movie Munich. But, it does seem that they operate under "an eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth" mentality. If one does wrong to the other, the other has to retaliate. I mean the area has been unstable for thousands of years. To bad, they don't learn.

its a complex situation where both sides are convinced they are right, any talks would be pointless unless both sides were willing to listen to each others arguaments and come to a resolution. Somebody else needs to step in to assist negotiations who has no bias, sadly they don't exist... oh well. Send in team Amercia, that would be hilarious..

mainly because there is this odd little charactre called God in the equasion(allthough he is not directly involved) Both parties believe that they have divine right to inhabit the discussed territories. And they would be prepared to do anything to defend their rights.
They are indeed cousins devided by their belief in the same God

Because they're stupid stubborn idiots who would rather blow each other up than sit down and talk like civilized people.
Sad, I know

Because some people, or their ideaologies, cannot be reasoned with. That's why we have always kept them seperated in the past.
