Yes, I believe we will get along someday, if the past is any indication of the future. I know it's hard for anyone, Jew, Muslim, or Christian, to believe it today, but there was a time when Jews and Muslims (Arabs) got along tolerably well. The Spanish Caliphate wasn't exactly the "Golden Age" some historians have made it out to be, but at least Jews and Muslims co-existed peacefully during that time. It wasn't all peaches and cream to be sure, but at least we weren't killing each other for the pure and simple hell of it, as is so often the tragic case nowadays.

They are essentially the same people. The jews originated in Iraq and spread throughout the Middle East interbreeding with the other tribes.
For hundreds of years under the Ottoman Empire they existed in peace with the arabs because they had a common enemy in Christians.
It is only with the rise of Zionism in the 19th century that there has been any major animosity.
Unfortunately , with the help of Britain and the USA , Zionism was allowed to grab arab lands after WW2 and the Palestinian refugees having been trying to regain their country ever since

no they won't ..why? besides biblical reasons..which others have explained better than I could.
Isreal is basically an artifical state created at the end of WWII...the world powers decided to take lands away from the arabs and placed the jews in the middle of ground zero..
basically Isreal has no allies in the region..the main reason that they have survived is the help and military might of the US.
so no technically arabs and jews will never get along

i just learned about the jews and arabs this year and i really wish that they would understand that all this fighting doesnt need to be happening. war doesnt solve anything. i watched documentarys on jews boy and arabs boys who were friends but when they grew up they hated each other. i dont think that they will ever get along untill they both realize that its over nothing.

Yes. I personally believe the book of Revelations where it is says that there will be a one world government that signs a treaty with Isreal for 7 years. Then they will get along for at least half that.
As a whole I don't think they ever have, but there are pockets where specific groups of each side did.

God said of Ishmael,the father of the Arabs,"He will be a wild man,his sword will be in his hand and against every man".
Kind of sums it up.The Muslims have at least 11 wars going on right now from Iraq to the Phillipines.
As long as they hate the Jews more than they love their children ,there will be no peace.(That's a quote from Golda Meir)

As soon as the USA becomes independent of fossil fuels, who cares if they get along.

No it isn't possible. God said they wouldn't.
