Going through AD articles, I stumbled across an article that listed Jewish inventors and scientist, peace-lovers (thank God Sharon wasn't listed) and Nobel peace laurettes, etc.

While I read through the list, two points clamored for attention:

- Jewish people are smart. Period.  

- Arabs are dumb...End of Story. Arabs'd never done anything in their life and they'll never amount to anything.

Unlike our AD Poetess I'm not jealous of anyone's contribution. I believe in the brotherhood of humankind and are happy for any contribution made to the betterment of our world, nor would I deceive you about world affairs. 

Fortunately, not all Jews are as narrow minded as our AD poetess. Could be that her views are colored by her political leanings? Or perhaps it's pure ignorance that's the cause of her errors? Whatever maybe the case, her writings are born out of her own personal views and there is very little we can do about her judgment, or the lack of it. 

Much like the rest of humanity, Arabs hail from that planet called earth with all its trials and tribulations, its ups and downs, so to expect Arabs to rule the world forever is kinda unrealistic, as it is unwise to assume the present situation to remain unchallenged forever; one needs only look at man’s history as a whole to learn the hard facts of life. 

Arabs did have their day; a rather long history of world domination, 800 years to be exact, 800 years of brilliance and scientific discovery, sharing and knowledge gathering: http://www.cyberistan.org/islamic/

Needless to say, Arabs are the pioneers of our modern world.

Spiritually, Arabs have an even more enviable  past, present and future; a history of piety and godliness, which to this day (and in the days to come) is a Source of hope for the rest of humanity, including Jews. http://www.jews-for-allah.com/

I continue to hope for a day when we are simply people living on earth and not caught up in who done what when or better. Gosh, I guess they are right, old hippies DO never die.

Lisa, your point is well-taken. But this wasn’t about putting down anyone's God. I believe God is One, the sole Creator and Lord of this world is One and the same God and it's up to each and everyone of us to find Him. I'm a Muslim woman and I believe in man’s freewill. It's Allah (in your language, God) that allows diversity, so who am I to insist on sameness? My duty as a Muslim who submits to the will of our Supreme Lord, is to inform those who have not yet heard of Him. There is a world of difference between "informing" and "forcing".

My writing objectives are very clear to anyone who takes the trouble to read my poetry, or articles such as this:

But why have we digressed from the topic at hand? Wasn't this about correcting a fellow author's erroneous views about the Arab race?
Best regards,
Safi
