why can't MFs just live next to other people's without wanting to kill and rape the "Other"???
Money doesn't want them to.
Sadly, this is the reason too many people overlook. It's not the only reason. A full listing of the reasons and their history would fill a book, but just focusing on the money aspect:
Hamas gets funding and weapons from Iran. Iran wants instability there and encourages the "wipe out Israel, kill all the Jews mentality."
On the other side, evangelical Christians in the US support people like the settlers in the West Bank. In the case of the evangelicals, it's because they need Israel to be controlled by Jews for Jesus to return, but they also need Israel to suffer a big attack. Peace in the Middle East would, in their twisted view, hurt Jesus' chances of returning. As an aside, they think that Jesus will toss all the Jews into hell once he comes back so them "supporting Israel" is definitely not "pro-Jews." It's merely delayed anti-semitism.
Remove these two elements and the fire would still rage there, but these groups see the fire and decide to toss some gasoline on top of it.
