Thousands of years of hate, wether it be for land, power,anothers relegion, or whatever, was, and is ongoing in that region. When children are
taught to hate from their earliest days, generation to generation, there is not much hope of peace by negotiation no matter how you cut it.
Nobody wants to give in with negotiations as this hate clouds everything.
The region always was, and will be a tinder box. Now with the proliferation of weapons of annihilation, it's just a matter of time until they're used.
Being every skirmish was, and is, started with rock throwing, the only answer is to collect and destroy all the rocks in the region.
