Root cause of hatred

Submitted by A.A. (United States), Sep 9, 2003 at 13:24

Not only palestinians but deep down, all very religious muslims hate jews and want destruction of Israel. This hatred is promoted by muslim holy books. It is sunna to kill jews (ref: Bani Quraiza massacre, Khyber killings, assasinations of jewish critics etc.). Muslims believe through hadeeses that all jews will be eventually killed by muslims . They believe that in the end even if a jew hides behind a stone, the stone will anounce that a jew is hiding behind me , come and kill him. Palestinian/muslim leaders may come, shake hands and sign accords, but as long as muslim beliefs promote this hatred and muslim mindset, nothing can be done. Israeli or any authority trying to solve this problem must keep this in mind.
