Very few foreigners ever get caught in that cross-fire anyway; they fight mostly amongst themselves. But UAE, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, Jordan are all fine, and Lebanon is just currently having a blip. They'll be fine again shortly. And Egypt outside Cairo is also perfectly fine, although technically not Middle East.

I really want to visit Jordan, Lebanon and Syria, since I have traveled some other places in the Middle East already, and I've heard wonderful things about those countries. I know most countries in the Middle East are very safe, never felt unsafe in any of the countries I visited there.
Qatar is also on the to-go-list, but at the moment, financially out of my reach.
