The Missing Piece For Middle East Peace

The Complex Problem: Achieving peace in the Middle East. Not just for Israel and Palestine, but for all the entire area. This problem has vexed the rest of the world for at least 1600 years if we consider the eight major Crusades from 1099 AD until 1291 AD. No one has been able to solve the problem of who is entitled to live where, and how long? I do not wish to delve into the intricate complications brought about by religious ignorance, ethnic hatred and geopolitical implications. So here comes the solution.

The Simple Answer: This area has the three religions which dominate Western Culture…Christianity, Islam and Judaism. Notice I have placed them in alphabetical order so there is no hint of preference or favoritism. Christians worship God, Muslims, Allah, and Jews, Jehovah. Each basic faith has many sects, but all of them maintain their basic faith in their chosen god. 

However, here comes the paradox and of course within it lies the simple solution. Allah, God and Jehovah are the SAME GOD!!! I know there are tons of you out there that refuse to accept this…so Google it! The Old Testament of our Holy Bible is the history of the Jewish people’s struggle to come to terms with Jehovah’s wrath and love. The New Testament is Christians claiming the Jewish god was too severe so He came down to earth as Jesus and softened Judaism…oh yeah He also said we could get some rewards before the world came to an end, where the Jews have to wait in darkness until that day…or event? 

Mohammad was fasting in a cave during Ramadan…yeah that was a shock to me... when he claimed Allah spoke to him and told him he had to revise Christianity because it was corrupt. However, he did say the Holy Book was not and had good points!  He also promised some rewards which might be more attractive to some guys, but that isn’t important we can keep them.

So, if each group is worshiping the same God, the solution is so simple I shudder when I wonder why someone hasn’t come up with it before me! Look, all we have to do is have some important big wig go to each and proclaim we are all Jews! Or Muslims! Or Christians! It really doesn’t matter. All we have to do is pick the one which is the most difficult to convince and declare their way is the right one. Once everyone admits it’s the same Big Guy up there in the sky looking out for everyone of us, all we have to do is adopt or rewrite The Book…and remember it was us Christians who had to do a new one. So once we got a new BOOK… poof!!! Peace! Love! and Dove! 

Just tell Mr. John Kerry, our Sec. Of State that the Beatles had it right…All we need …etc!! Once again you got to admit…I got the answer…where’s the next problem?
