One supposed difference christianity-islam is that islam does not literally contain
the words "turn the other cheek", while christianity kind of does.

Foregiveness, mercy and many other aspects are common.

But war is such a sin that only some are allowed, only those considered rightous remain,
considered holy.

Free trade and property tights also a reason theft is severely punished, but in the desert it is
the buyer of water who sets the price, not the seller. (should be interesting for a regular
investor)

Social security is also clearly stipulated, a duty, that thing about tax-cuts, even
capital gains taxes.

As well as education.

...from many Third World countries' perspectives, the US's foreign policy has directly and indirectly led to the deaths of many innocent civilians.

They couldn't get it right thousands of years ago. What makes anyone think we should bow to their thinking now? Israel is back at home....period...
