Anyone else is welcome to drop in their two cents.

Yo Tech, my roomate (a Christian) and I like to have debates, Islam vs. Christianity, Palestine vs. Isreal.

He was telling me that it says in the Old Testament that the Jews were Gods chosen people and that He gave Jerusalam to the Jews.  And then thousands of years later, Muslims came and conquered some territories in Jerusalam, stole their land, and now that is the center of the Palestinian/Isreal conflict.  And since the Jews had it first, he takes Isreals side always.

How would you argue that point?

That wasn't what he was saying though dogg.... Jamal was comparing the Native Americans to the Jews and the Palestinians to the Americans.
