And this is where state sponsored stubornness comes into play. They won't peacefully coexist because they hate each other. They can't abandon their supposedly religious murders (neither religion really permits murder in the way that it's going on now any more than Buddhism permits murder) because they have this sense of religious entitlement. It's disgusting.
The best way to fix this situation is for pacifist leaders to come to power in both Judism and Islam, and for them both, collectively, to condem any murder (espically in the name of G*d/Allah). We need to shut the Pat Robertsons of the world up and let the Martin Luther King Jr.'s of the world speak on behalf of organized religion. Let more acurate representations of the Torah, Bible, and Qu'ran be the loudest voices. All three texts teach peace, after all.
