The Middle East Conflict And The Enemy

When a difinitive depiction of the Moslem ceases to exist, in the minds of it's on-lookers, a clear understanding of who and what the enemy is or is not , is not possible.

The primary distinction between the various moslem sects, does not exist in it's religious beliefs, but in it's law . As a result of these differences, conflicts exist between these different sects. As for their religious beliefs, if they claim allegiance to Allah and the Quran, the tenets of their religion are the same.

Their definition of who and what their enemy is, is reflective of the beliefs expressed by Mohammed, and written in the Quran, and therefore there is no difference in the Moslem, as a whole. Their enemy has been defined as an un-believer. and therefore anyone that rejects the tenets of their religious beliefs, is their enemy. For those that are deceived and are unable to comprehend who the enemy is, and who is their enemy, is in for a rude awakening.

Historically speaking, the Moslem existed long before Mohammed, and in fact is the direct decendant of Ismael, the illigitimate son of Abraham. The conflict that exists between the Moslem and the Jew is the result of a covenant promise from God, that the decendants of Abraham were to benefit from. These decendants were Isaac and Jacob, but not Ismael, and in their lies the conflect that has lasted, for nearly two thousand years. These two thousand years have resulted in wars, conflicts and conquests that have circled the globe. They even had a part in the demise of the ancient Roman Empire.

Their primary intent is to discredit the Scriptures, and claim that Ismael and his decendants were the rightful air's to the covenant promise defined in the Scriptures. Secondly, their intent is to destroy the Jew, which is the rightful air to this covenant promise. Any country or individual that supports the Jew ,in regaining the land defined in the covenant promise, becomes their enemy.

In conclusion, God had issued a warning in His word, that those that turn against His people the Jew, are his enemy.
