Abraham was also the father of those who would later become Muslims and Muslims are also "people of the Book."

BC, my only input is that "the [fill in the blank]" don't do anything. individuals do. i'd be offended if someone said "americans" are imperialists and applied that BS to me as an american. yes, the jews in general screwed up in the bible - but that's a human condition and you can substitute any group of people and they would have done similar. the oligarch puppets of the day, who happened to be jewish, took jesus out. some jews defended jesus. it is an individual thing. the government that claimed to represent jewish individuals was, no doubt, corrupt - but all governments are corrupt. the jewish government doesn't allow... i'm sure some jewish folks disagree with the control freaks who run the show over there the same way we disagree with the control freaks over here. i have to catch myself making distinctions that are easy to miss, but very important in communicating the nuances of what is actually going on and who is actually doing it. i'm not war mongering with libya as an american, Big Capital oligarchs who have hijacked my government are. that's not "america," that is a bunch of psychopathic criminals.
