What can be done?

I offer no answers in this post, only dispair via the drudgereport today:

• Female bomber, 68, wounds 3 Israeli troops...
• Suicide bomber's family: We're very proud...
• RUSSIA DELIVERS ROCKETS TO IRAN
• *Sends air defense system...
• **Russian nuclear chief to visit Tehran...
• Bombs Kill 22 After Hell Day in Iraq...
• Shiites Burn Six Sunni Worshippers Alive...

Is the middle east beyond hope?
