Subject: RE: Palestinians aim to destroy peace proces
Well Tom, you may be fed up, but you need to understand a few things.

The word "Jew" is not synonomous with Israel. To slur Jews for what *you* perceive as an Israeli wrong, is anti-Semitic.

Abraham was not "he father of the two that strated the Arab and Jewish relgions, Issac and Ishmeil." (sic) According to the biblical legend, Abraham himself was the first Jewish patriarch. Isaac continued that lineage.

"Arab," as you put it, is not a religion. The Arabs consider themselves to be the decendants of Ishmael. The religion of the vast majority of Arabs is Islam, some are also Christians. The Islamic religion was founded in the 7th century AD, in what is now Saudi Arabia, by Mohammed. Islam was founded approximately 3,000 years after the birth of Judaism and 600+ years after the founding of Christianity.
