Joshua Geller asks whether the differecens of a Muslim
with Israel will be political or religious.

I see following differences of a Muslim with Israel:

1. A Muslim should be able to go to the third most holy
Masjid in Islam, Al-Aqsa. Prophet peace be upon him said
travel is allowed for only three Masjids. 1) Masjidal-Haram
in Makkah. 2) Masjidal-Nabwi in Madinah 3) Masjidal-Aqsa
in Yaroshalam.

2. It is duty of all Muslims, according to Koran, to fight
all those who drive you (or your brothers) from your homes.
Muslims consider occupation of Falasteenies driving them
out of there homes.

3. Does anybody in the network or not disagree that the killings
of Falasteenies in occupied Falsteen should be stopped. If you
do then you are taking the side of killers.

Toleration of people of other faiths does not mean that they
can kill us and we "tolerate". It means that we live in
peace and harmony. If there is a Muslim government and
in the minority non-muslims there is a dispute, then that
dispute be resolved according to the minority's rules. This
is just an example of tolerance in Islam. I do not see this
kind of tolerance in today's western "civilized" nations.
May be the "barbarians" were better!

Regards.
