Why does fighting never cease in the Middle East?

Answer 1

This is easy--the US never ceases sending arms and money to Israel, so there's no incentive to stop.

When the US cancels Israel's $43 billion per year in loan guarantees, financial aid and munitions, there will be breaks in the fighting.

Answer 2

I don't think it is a religious thing as much as it is a power and control thing. Those in charge use religion as an excuse to wage war on one another. Those in control have the money, their armies and the wherewithall to remain in power. They not only wage war on their neighbors but on people within their own society who do not kow-tow to them. Money, power,greed , envy, fear.......etc, etc, etc.. From what I understand about all the major religions; they all believe in peace, compassion, fellowship,and brotherhood. Man corrupts spiritualism for his own gain.Spiritualism does not corrupt man!!
Until man learns to live with and accept man, there will be no end to war, especially in the Middle East.
It will be Semite against Semite for a long while yet ! Yes , Semite against Semite. For you see anti-Semitic does not mean anti-Jewish. The Semites are all the peoples descended from Shem, one of the sons of Noah. All of the indigenous people in the Middle East are Semitic.
And they've been going at each other tooth-and-nail since recorded time.

Answer 3

Eventually it will, maybe even during our lifetimes. However, based on human nature and human history, there will always be fighting somewhere. That's just the way it has been and always will be. Atleast until human beings evolve into higher life forms, 1,000,000 years from now? Until then the bloodshed will continue. It may never happen because there is a good chance the human race will destroy themselves first along with planet earth. Too much reality for you? That's life.
That's why all you peace-loving pacifist types who put down President Bush and the war in Iraq are only deluding yourselves. In nature, as in life, only the strong survive. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but it's inescapable.

Answer 4

Because certain religious factions are willing to commit total genocide for their religious beliefs and it's domination above all other religions. I believe in freedom of choice, but when it comes to religion and politics, it should be managed more tightly without the many factional choices. This is one reason why so many people cannot get along because they become so over zealous to the point where fighting and wars breakout.

Answer 5

Why do Christians, Jews, and Muslims hate each other?
The people of the middle east have no freedom and no property rights. They blame each other for their problems. Wealth is in the hands of the rich.

Answer 6

There has never been 'peace' in the 'Middle East'. They've been at war with themselves or others since recorded history.
Read your Bible ( mostly the Old Testament ), if you have one, and you'll see how it's always been.
