You are correct in part. The actual tensions between muslim and jews is actually a product of the 20th century. Jews and muslims lived together in harmony throughout most of the past 2000 years. The current situation started after WW2 when palestine was partitioned and no other country in the world wanted the refugees of hitlers extermination camps.
Oil is the ONLY reason the US cares more about the middle east than it does about Rhowanda or Sudan. Our government would be hard pressed to explain the death of one soldier in Sudan and like Rhowanda before it there is a genocide in process. If there was oil we would already have been "educated" as to need to be there with force to protect the indiginous people.

Manifest Destiny? God's will that all Native American's be exterminated?
