In fact Jews and Muslims share many common similarities.
Vinay : This is untrue. The fact is, on closer examinations it is Hindus who
appears to be compatible to a considerable degree to Jews.
Both Hindus and Jews are ancient civilizations, with a long and illustrious
history which dates back thousands of years. Both emerged into an era of
post-colonial sovereignty from British rule which left lasting imprints on the
two nascent independent societies.
Both religions maintained a strong commitment to values of tolerance,
pluralism and liberty in domestic political environments. Both had to undergo
brutal homicide, Jews in the hand of Nazi Hitler and Hindus by barbaric
Muslim invaders followed by Portuguese and British colonialists.
Both these religions maintained glorious Diaspora mostly in the United
States by maintaining strong bond with their respective countries of origin
simultaneously giving valuable contribution to the host countries.
Marshall wrote : Both wear skull caps. Both grow beards. Both wear distinctive
clothes. The birth of both religions took place in the same region. Both abhor
pork and pork products. Both only eat kosher / halal meat. Both take names from
the Old Testament eg: Jacob and Yacub, Abraham and Ibrahim, Joseph and Yusuf.
Vinay : These can be few similarities between Muslims and Jews but on the
contrast Pakistani and Palestenian Muslims have one thing in common, They
cannot put their own house in order. They cannot argue without violence. They
understand the only language of Jehadi terrorism , suicide bombings and AK47s.
Another commonality between India and Israel is that both countries have
hostile terror sponsoring neighbors.
