Unfortunately, despite the rationality of peace - The Palestinieans and the Jews will find excuse to attack each other (All people, regardless of decent contain hardliners). Heck, even if religion or history weren't plausible enough, someone will make up another.

As to Eygpt's change of government, it's hopeful there won't be another un-democratic state, but it's a plausible and real fear there won't. Granted, I think that the real wish of any western government will be that no one will remember who helped keep Mubarak there.

Granted, it's rather amusing the focus of the media is on Eygpt despite everything tacking place in the rest of the middle east. Large amounts of the region are facing an uprise, hopefully a successful one.

The reason why the focus on Egypt is so intense is because of how important Egypt is as a nation. It's traditionally the centre of the Arab world. The fall of Mubarak will have other Arab dictators shaking in their boots, it's a very ill omen for them.
