Disagree, we or any outside force cannot serve as peacekeepers anywhere in the middle east. Once the honeymoon is over, the various factions will turn against one another and/or join forces and turn against the peacekeeping forces.
Best we can do is to stay the hell away and hope that sometine this century, they will get tired of killing each other.
Only semblance of peace in the ME is when ruled by monarchs and dictators.
