The letter from Eric Bahrt concludes with, “I think it’s racist we believe only Muslims commit atrocities when Christians and Jews are clearly the world champions in that department”.
Being Muslim, Christian or Jewish has nothing whatsoever to do with race. Religions are not races. ‘Racist’ is the favourite adjective to which the left-wing liberals, with a limited politically correct vocabulary, resort to in a futile effort to discredit non-PC people who have a broad, positive view on life.
Quoting biased Noam Chomski’s isolated incident means very little. It is just an isolated incident related by a pseudo socialist whose academic notions are impracticable and who is banned from Israel.
To understand the difference between the religions, one has to refer to their fundamentals. Islam is based on the life and teachings of a warlord who lived by, and conquered with, the sword.
Christianity started with Jesus Christ who did little more than tour an area of the Middle East on foot preaching his ideas, completely unarmed except for his words of wisdom. Fundamental Muslims, true to their roots, do commit atrocities. Christians true to their fundamental roots do not.
Jews in Israel are in a permanently threatened situation. Surrounded by enemies intent on annihilating their country, it is little wonder they are pro-active in defence of their very right to exist.
Both currently and historically they are clearly shown to be victims of continual persecution mostly by Muslims.
