10, years ago 15 years ago, the fuel that escalated the Israel/Palestinian conflict was Likud on one side, and Hamas on the other trading harsh words an atrocities in order to consolidate their own power as the only one who can protect its constituents against the other.

I see Pastor Jones and certain Islamic militants playing that same game and unfortunately I see a number of members of what I would call the Organized Church of Anti-God, some of whom evangelize on this forum egging them on.

The fact is the number of people who want war between Christianity and Islam is almost insignificant. The attention they get is very significant.

Though the GOP is quite happy to exploit that conflict in order to inspire the fear based voters in its base.
