They've literally been fighting each other since Egypt and Babylon were superpowers. Their genetics are very similar. Their languages are in the same family. Their roots are the same. Yet they've been beating the shit out of each other for millennia. And over what? It's not like the Levant is the US Midwest or the Northern European Plain. It's a freaking sandbox!!!!!!!!!! You're killing each other over who possesses a freaking sandbox!!!!!! AAARRRRrrrg!!!
