SIR: The enmity between the Jews and the Arabs dates back to the animosity between the two wives of Abraham, Sarah (the mother of Isaac) and Hagar (the mother of Ishmael). Based on that animosity, the Jews (Isaac's descendants) and the Arabs (Ishmael's descendants) have never really united. Ditto the religions of Judaism and Christianity which originated from the Jews, and Islam which originated from the Arabs.
How that animosity became Africa's infection is the question reasonable Africans must ask themselves. You need to see tension even at academic conferences in Africa by Africans if discussion touches on the crisis in the Middle East. What type of God were the Westerners and the Arabs talking about? Could it be a contentious God that is forever pregnant with animosity and desire to either dominate or kill?
