They sound just like the entire Middle East (Israel/Palestinian) codnundrum...flip sides of the same coin, a conflict that will PROBABLY be solved when H - E - double hockey sticks freezes over.
There are no winners over there, ever, only losers and bigger losers. What a way to live. I can't blame any of them for chosing HERE to live.
Have you ever been to Israel? I'd suggest a visit before you judge us. Having lived in both countries (the U.S. and Israel) I'd have to say the similarities in culture and values are greater than the difference.
That, of course, is the point. Israel and the United States are both nations built on Judeo-Christian values. The Arab countries are anything but.
