Their shared homophobia!!!
As relations between Palestinian and Israeli politicians disintegrate, religious officials from the Muslim, Jewish and Christian communities united to oppose the event.
Over 50 prominent religious figures visited the Knesset's Interior Committee to campaign against the World Pride...
Gay-rights groups, including the Jerusalem Open House and the Coalition for Gay, Bisexual, Lesbian, and Transgender Rights described the faction as "dangerous" and "ugly."
Sol Lev, A gay rights activist promoting the event said: "We will have our event, and our rights as human beings will not be trampled,"
"Their speech, what these people are saying, is a hate crime."
During the fraught meeting, religious figures urged World Pride to consider moving the parade to another city or canceling it altogether.
"I promise there's going to be bloodshed - not just on that day, but for months afterward," declared New York Rabbi Yehuda

Levin, a representative of the Rabbinical Alliance of America.
"In America, we are outraged and disgusted over this event. There are millions of people who, with their bodies, souls and money, will stand against this... I will be here afterwards to remind you and to say, 'I warned you and you did nothing.'"
"If gays will dare approach the Temple Mount during the parade, they will do so over our dead bodies," said MK Ibrahim Sarsur (United Arab List- Ta'al).
Critics have been swift to point out the irony of religious leaders preaching hatred, murder and intolerance.

Yes, all people deserve to be respected and treated equally as human beings should. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Even with religion. A very sad state of affairs.

This brings "The Big Three" together in hatred. I was hoping, when I looked at the question, that perhaps this was a serious question about how we can bring these three groups together in peace.
My answer on the positive side would be, introducing these partiarchies to female divinity. Creating balance. But alas, this was not the question.

Those 3 religions are NOT the same, and the god of Islam is a false one. Check it out, dig deep, search the truth.

Don't you know? We are right, and we will kill you if you don't agree! God gave us free will, but we don't care, we KNOW we have the mind of GOD!
