I realize the way politics of recent times has further added to the destabilization, but lets not kid ourselves, they have been warring in this region since around the dawn of time.

As much as I hate to say it, they need a dictator. Removing Saddam was one of the worst things we could do for that region. He did horrible things to people, even his own, but it prevented them from doing horrible things to each other on a larger scale. They need several decades of that kind of stability and understanding that Sunni and Shiite and Christian and Jew can all live in one place and get along.
