Most people, when asked about what drives the Middle East conflict, tend to cite the causes that we touched on in the previous chapter— such as the “contested religious sites” or the greatly misunderstood “Palestinian issue.” However, as we have seen, the contempt that many Muslims harbor toward the Jews has much deeper roots than most realize. The ancient rivalry that was already thousands of years old by the time of Muhammed’s first “revelation,” was further ignited by the advent of Islam; indeed, one might liken the effect to that of throwing gasoline on a fire. Today, owing to Islam, many Asian, Black or White Muslims, who, in fact, do not share the Arab ancestry and the correlating ancient hostility based on the loss of Esau’s birth rite, have their own justification for hating the Jews: Muhammed hated the Jews.
