Who is War Mongering? Everyone should seek the truth from biblical history.

I remember back in the 70s and 80s seeing hijackings of American and European Airliners, and thinking why are these people doing this? What did anyone do to the arabs to deserve this treatment of Terrorism. Some people were killed or tortured on board the airplanes. We saw a steady escalation of violence and attacks, the USS Cole, The Spain trainbombings, the Marine Baracks in Beirut, the bombing of Pan Am over Lockerbee Scotland, and 2 bombings of the WTC.

I have never been prejudiced against any race, until I saw this open aggression toward America and Israel. I always believed everyone had a right to their own religion, and could co-exist with them in peace. It is the beliefs of Islam that bring the Jihad against other peoples. Simply if you do not adhere to their beliefs you are denied the right to exist and worship in freedom.

I am sorry but this kind of anti-semetism is not from a God of peace. Our bible tells us to have allegiance to one God, not a Pagan God, who kills innocent people because they have been taught this from birth. These people need to question the motives of Allah and Mohammed. They talk about peace and praying several times a day, but do they not question praying for the murders of innocent people.

The whole religion really makes people wonder, why don't the Arabs think that maybe there is another way for them, with the true God and creator of all things, for he is the true God of the Universe. I have allegiance for One God and Jesus not the God who promotes death and destruction.
