No, peace in the Middle East doesn't seem even remotely possible as long as there is not peace between Israel and Palenstine. And JeffF, this is great insight:

"If Israel didn't exist, some of the Arab leaders would have had to invent her, as focusing the popluation of Saudi Arabia or Syria on anti-Israeli sentiment also helps distract them from poverty and the dictatorships they live under. Nothing like an external enemy to keep the terror directed rather than an internal one. If peace comes, terror will be directed internally."

That's so true, isn't it. I hadn't even really thought about it like that, but of course you are right. This just gets worse and worse.
