Hi Dave,

Re: do Arabs say Salaam aleikum to Jews?
Just asking. Salaam aleikum

No, in fact if they are linguistically sensitive, they say "Shalom". Which we all can see is a perfect reason why the Arabs are wrong and the Israelis correct. Salaam-Shalom. You do see the difference, don't you?

Speaking of linguistic, another blood feud between indistinguishable races is the Armenian-Azerbajani conflict. When a Westerner like you or me looks at the script that each use, they seem indistinguishable. But to an Armenian, the Azeri written language is "like linguini thrown at a wall".

This is how petty people create massive pains-in-the-asses of themselves. The Armenians, Azeris, Israelis and Palestinians are all guilty of being extraordinarily small minded peoples. Such is the human condition.

Shalom, Ray
