Not too many people know that Islam, like Christianity, was originally derived from the Hebrew religion. And it is interesting how history repeated itself-----800 years after Mohammed, Martin Luther, like Mohammed, when spurned by the Hebrews turned vehemently against the Jews and set in motion a chain of events that has changed the course of history and continues to affect our current world situation.
