I agree but that's exactly part of the problem. All three of the largest religions: Judiasim, Christianity and Muslims feel they own the land because of their ancestors and religions. People over there live their religion. To them it's not a pile of "crap" like some have stated here. They are willing to die for their beliefs and not as tolerant of other beliefs as we are here.
