    The father of Arabs and Jews (According to Monotheistic Faith) is Abraham. Abraham could not have a child with his wife so he had one with a servant girl named Hagar. This son was Ishmael, the first "Arab", but later Abraham had a son with his wife named
    Isaac, the first "Jew."

    Wow. So all Arabs can trace their roots back to one single b*stard. I didn't know that.

    I guess I should make a joke at my own expense while I'm at it. According to the Old Testament, we all descend from Adam and Eve, so I guess I can trace my lineage back to a bunch of inbreds.

    religion allowed it back then and it wasn't an illegit child. they were both wives of abraham. even according to the bible he is not a b*stard.

    unless you wanna condemn abraham for having b*stard children i suggest you keep your mouth out of your ass.

    I was thinking the same thing.

    Only if one assumes that an armed response is the only alternative, which you keep stating as a given, and I keep claiming that there are alternatives.

    Regardless, I do not assume that the creation of Israel was justified. Nor the creation of the United States over the ashes of the indigenous populations. Shall we test the justification of every country where immigrants or invaders took control? How many years shall we go back? How many years do immigrants have to be there before they can desire independence for their territory? This opens an interesting area, but I doubt that PhDs could even do it much justice.

    FD,

    Enlightened as always.

    FWIW, the 'swine' comment is from a troll, so I shouldn't have even responded.
