Brother Cornelius 
Thank you for letting me know the great relationships you have had with some palestinians friends of yours and even a potential wife . Like you I and many others on this forum have condemned all kinds of racism. check it out. whether it is Dafur or south africa or usa or saudi arabia or israel and yes even in palestine. racism like zionism is wrong and two wrongs do not make it right.
I respect your input but object to the one sided view. There are two sides to each coin. yes if the so called muslim leaders in the neighbouring countries had some balls or khutsba if I may use that term , then this problem would have been solved a long time ago. They have the oil power then they could have used it as leverage and cut it off as was done by the late king Fiesal ( may he rest in peace). then many would listen but who will when all our leaders  care for how long they will be in power and how much money they have in their swiss bank accounts or how many  women they can abuse.
You make some valid points about Gaza and I blame their lack of vision and unity to stop the pain of the helpless majority , unfortunately . it is only the poor and the oppressed who always pay the price
Let me re iterate The jewish religion is not the problem because after all most of us believe in the Torah , the old testament Ingil and the holy Quran - and all the prophets sent by God to deliver one message - peace .
people just pick portions that suit them to quote and omit the whole paragraph that shows the full context .
That is the main issue with all our politicians and even with religious so called scholars and sometimes even us including myself  . we tend to have a blind eye to others problems as long as it is not in our backyard.  But goodluck in your pursuit of selective thruthfullness 
I pray that that Allah guide us all to sanity and peace for mankind's sake 
best regards
Habib
