The solution is for Israel to become a despotic failed state, then it would fit in to the neighborhood, and no longer threaten the Arab and Persian regimes.

"When in Rome..." is the perfect response to your initial suggestion that Israel say: "When they go low, we go lower!" Because when Jews faced off against Rome, and when Christians did too, they looked at what Caesar represented -- unbridled earthly power -- and they said, "Nahh, no thanks, we'll pass." For them, Rome wasn't an answer, it was one of the main problems. Hence, the push back from the scribes and prophets of Jerusalem. ... Eventually, even Rome knew something was wrong with all their conquering and killing. Or maybe they sensed that pure power was necessary but not sufficient. Which is why Constantine ultimately carried out his somewhat hostile takeover of the Church.
