Hello Maria,

I respectfully disagree with your comments in regards to anyone been chosen peoples.In islam. we do not believe that any people are preferred over another.No one is chosen.There a verse in the quran that says Arab muslims are not better than anyone else unless they are more humble and more pious to Allah.Actions make you better not anything else.

Maria, Allah does not ask me to accept anyhthing that does not make sense.Why would the jewish people be chosen or better than everyone else.It is not even right in these days of equality!

Muslims want to live with everyone else in peace.History shows that.Our lands have been occupied, our people slaughtered for a lot of reasons: Religous crusades, Zionists choosing to create their country on our land, our western economies attacking arab countries to protect their interest in oil. What have muslims done?I wish we can be left alone!I trully do.But I don't think the west will allow so.They think if we are left alone that we will become more powerfull.They will not allow this.

take care,

Ahmad
