THE GENESIS OF THE CRISIS: From The Middle East to Iraq.
( Being an abstract on the general reports on the Middle East conflicts and the war in Iraq as reported in the New York Times.)
“Enlighten the people, generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like spirits at the dawn of day.”
Thomas Jefferson
The Genesis of the Middle East Crisis is known to the two opposing forces engaged in the unending war, Israel and Palestine and the rest of the Arabs who are disputing their respective claims to the inheritance of their Patriarch Abraham.
The Jews claim that Isaac was the legitimate first son of Abraham who inherited the land of Israel, whereas the Arabs claim that their ancestor Ishmael was the first son of Abraham and so was entitled to the inheritance of Abraham. This fundamental disagreement is enshrined in the Old Testament of the Holy Bible, which is the foundation of Judaism the religion of the Jews, and in the testament of the Koran the foundation of Islam, the religion of the majority of the Arabs. Therefore, these descendants of the same ancestor Abraham have never settled their differences for over 3,000 years.
The disobedience of Esau is the cause of the Middle East Crisis.
The impatience of Abraham is the genesis of Islam. Esau went to marry from the daughters of Ishmael (GENESIS 28:6-9.
)
If Abraham had not slept with Hagar, Ishmael would not have been born.
Do you now see the Genesis of the Crisis TEARING THE WORLD APART?
The Holocaust, the Israel and Arab wars, 9/11, Gulf Wars, etc?
God is blameless. The disobedience of Man brought the downfall of Man.
When America supports Israel, the Arabs see America as their enemy for taking sides with the Jews and if you support the Arabs, you are an enemy of Israel.
These two landlocked tribes with their different religions have divided the majority of the races on earth.
The Christians owe their faith to the origin of the Jews, Abraham and have sworn an oath of allegiance to Abraham and have become the enemies of the enemies of Israel, the Arabs.
The ignorance of these facts has made the United Nations (UN) to be frustrated in making peace between these two sworn enemies. And they have spread their hatred to the other populations on earth like a pandemic disease. The UN should address the catastrophic political disputes from the religious perspectives of the genesis of the crisis.
