Can peace be achieved in the Middle East or is the conflict between Israel and the Arabs impossible to resolve?

[Edit]

Answer

There are dozens of conflicts going on in the Middle East; 'peace in the Middle East' is a vague term. The Israeli-Arab conflict is definitely a major factor, but not the only one, hindering peace in the Middle East.

That said, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the more general Israeli-Arab conflict are protracted conflicts: conflicts that are drawn out and extremely complex. If agreements and compromise are to be reached, it would take drastic measures. At the present time, neither side is willing to give what the other side absolutely wants.
