Time to trot this out again.....
The Middle East is a very attractive land, with lots of natural resources that make it a target for its own people and foreigners alike.
Looks like somebody seeded its land with so much natural recourse. All the rest depends on the natives who get blinded by greed, they will invite foreigners if they were ready to share the loot after helping them get it.
It's not religion. I really wonder what Europeans would've done if they lived here; last I heard they fought a world war that killed 80 million people, that without even finding a goldmine like oil.
The Jews didn't "spawn" in the region neither are they natives. Somebody brought them from the outside, as if he was "fashioning a crisis out of thin air". Since when secular counteries -like Britain- buy the biblical narrative?
