Until the Middle East is transformed into a truly secular, nonhierarchical section of the world, we'll probably see these conflicts continue. The solution does not lie in a Palestinian state or an Israeli one, but in ending the power struggles, ideologies and authoritarian alliances making them occur. Obviously, this might entail challenging all states in the region, and their "rights" to exist.
The "War on Terror" is a failure in this regard.
There can be no true harmony between nations, because nations exist.
