Letters to the Editor, December 27, 2003

Christians, Jews, and Muslims all agree that they are from the linage of Abraham. To me this means they are all of the same family by blood. History is confusing to me, it is so full of propaganda and tort, after all, literacy was a property of government and religion for most of the time it was documented. Until recently most folks just made their mark on documents that they couldn't read. Are we still behaving like uneducated serfs or do we really have a say in our own affairs? If so, I would say that policies of assimilation or extermination, written or not of the red race should stop right away. This activity has accelerated since the family squabble heated up in the Middle East. I think it is a bad policy to extinct a race of human beings openly or under cover.

Editor: Majority of people all over the world agree with you. They are against the war in the Middle East, that targets Arabs and Muslims for their resources. With regard to your idea that Christians, Jews, and Muslims are related, you're right. Actually, all humans are related by Adam (according to religion) or by going back to the same female ancestress (according to anthropology). Followers of the three religions are spiritually related to Abraham and the messengers of God. Some Muslims, Christians, and Jews are related by blood. All this allows for a more common ground for peace than the lust for oil and territory that are the prime movers behind the current wars.

I read your website all the time and I had to ask what exactly is a Zionist?
