Answer:

The main reason why tensions are so high between the Jews and the Muslims is because when WW2 ended the Jews were sent back to their homeland or they moved to the U.S. The newly formed United Nations Created Israel and carved up the previous Palestinian land and divided it up between the two countries. The Muslims didn't like this because they had just lost land that they had been on for generations before the Jews even showed up. The other reason why they don't like each other is because both of their religions, Judaism and Islam had religious ties to the city of Jerusalem.
