Okay, you say that you worship the same God as the Jews and Christians. God is the God of Israel, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. why then do you say that the Israelis stole land from you and that God changed His mind about it and that the Israelis should be driven into the sea? Becuase the God of the Jews and Christians is the God of Israel, do you worship Him?
Just need that to be cleared up
thanks

Muslims now claim that this is a "political" problem. That is just another Muslim lie. This conflict is all about religion.
90% of the Koran, and thus their religion, is about defeating the "enemies of Islam". If Islam didn't have any enemies 90% of their beliefs would be obsolete. They NEED to hate, to justify their religion.
Dying fo their religion is much more "honorable" to them, than living in peace.

My question is: why? Why PUNISH all of Gaza's Palestinians? Is it to make us all so afraid we can't close our eyes? To beg for mercy? To make it want to stop at any expense? IT is cruel. It is inhumane. It is collective punishment. It is psychological terror and torture in its rawest most disturbing form. And so the war on Gaza continues.terror and torture.

Yes God is God, but Christianity, Judaism and Islam are not the same. The contents of their holy books are not completely the same so Muslims do not follow the teachings of the Bible or Torah.
I doubt the expulsion of people from their homes, and in such a cruel manner might I add, is what God would have wanted for anyone to do. If you knew just how cruel the Israeli govt is, you would not support their cause at all.
Read 'Zionism must be dissolved for peace' at http://umkahlil.blogspot.com/.
Imagine if Muslims did what the Zionists did, can you imagine how much uproar there would be?? Yet Israel can get away with it!

Well said FridayNighter (aka Raggae Lover).
Yes, whether you like it or not, we Muslims worship the same God as you.
Tell me something. You say that you worship God and yet you probably supported your country, South Africa, in displacing and oppressing a lot of black Africans during the time of Apartheid.
What your country did is no different from what the Jews did during the creation of the State of Israel. These two issues are more political than religious in nature.
Please do not point the "faults" of my brothers and sisters and our faith unless you are willing to let your country and your race's faults be exposed as well.
Peace and respect to you which I hope you will reciprocate.

Israelis stole the land from the Palestinians, not all of the Muslims. Although the Palestinians are Muslims, it mainly affects them. We as Muslims, support our Palestinians brothers and sisters. Anyhow, The Jews, through their disobedience to God and His laws, fell from grace as being the chosen people. Once God appoint Muhammad (peace be upon him) as the last prophet, the laws he brought in the Holy Qur'an superseded all previous laws. Indeed, we believe in the God of Israel and Abraham (peace be upon him). But the question is, do you believe in him? By not believing in Muhammad (peace be upon him) as the last prophet, you reject your own God and His will. By the way, I've never heard that the Israelis should be driven into the sea. Where did you hear that? I would say someone made that up.

ask them ''who is Jesus, to you?'' and a muslim or a jew would not say ''the only begotten Son of God, who died for our sins, my Lord and saviour'' a christian is the only one who would truthfully give an answer like that.
indeed, it is said that all three worship the same God, but they don't believe the same things about Him. presuming for the sake of debate, that the christian is right, then ''no one comes to the Father, but by me'' - Jesus. Jesus says He is the only way to get to heaven, the other two would not say this.
if a person has a false view of God, they indeed are not worshipping God, but rather an image of a god that they have created in their own mind. aside from this being idolatry, it is also clear that if one of these religions is right, then the other two are wrong. they can't all be right if each teaches a different way to get to heaven. therefore, not one of the three views of God is the same. indeed, they don't worship the same God.

Philistine and Israel issue is related to political and not religion. And yes all the three religions ISLAM JUDISM and Christianity have same fore father and that is Hazrat IBRAHIM. And they all worship ONE GOD.
But unfortunately christian and jews are not following their original scripture, but they are following books written by some bishops etc.

Apartheid here in SA was bad enough but what is happening in Palestine is 100 multiplied. How would you like what belongs to you taken away by the undeserving people mentioned in the Quran. By the way this issue has nothing to do with religion.

Because they did, they stole the land; they came from all over the world and claimed for the land.
Muslims didn’t do the same when Califa Omar freed these lands from the Romans, there was no (unmoral) Immigration movement from “Hijaz” to Palestine, there was no occupation and the people of that land stayed in their lands.
