One thing to keep in mind is that a lot of the food supply in the Middle East and North Africa used to come from Russia and Ukraine (link). Actions targeted at increasing food security in the region won’t solve the political issues, but probably would turn down the temperature of the region. It would also help with the immigration crisis in Europe. It’s not an easy or quick solution (growing food takes time, and the scale of the problem is staggering), but it’s hard to see how peace would come without food.
