It won't get sorted because then the issue will be taken beyond to Israel's border. While it's not an openly declared policy on behalf of Israel, but settlers will push beyond. Abraham is from Ur, Moses is from Egypt. They can find reasons why it's legitimate for them to move there. Then the state has to intervene on their behalf. It's a colonization tactic.
But Israel state has it's own ambitions in the region similar to Turkey, Saudis, and Iran. They'll go out and destabilize neighbours to gain influence. To remove regimes, and help others to gain power. And perhaps move in as peacekeeping forces, and then move settlers in.

Couple of local powers (Israel, Saudi, Turkey, Iran), some minor noones (Jordan), some meh (Egypt, Tunisia), and some really fucked countries (Libya, Syria, Iraq, Yemen). There are plenty of reasons to do some chaos. From various oil projects, through Kurds, to Sunni-Shiia divide.
> few decades ago the Egyptians, Jordanians and Syrians would have jumped at this
Not really. There were the intifadas. Noone did much.
