A big Amen to that Skipper.

The Arab Muslims also believe that they are "God's chosen people". Maybe that's why they are bitter enemies. The ironic part is that Jews and Arabs come from the same ancient tribes of the Middle East which makes them fairly close blood relatives. It amazes me how religion can destroy the human brain as easily as a bullet to the frontal lobes.
