31. #26 - Cluster bombs aren't illegal yet
William ,   Israel   (09.12.10)
and neither is phosphorus munitions. Sadly, you'd attack Israel for using them according to conventions that dictate their proper usage in war, but ignore the law itself which might be imperfect. It just makes you look dumb and racist.
32. #28 - Star of David found in 3rd century synagogue
William ,   Israel   (09.12.10)
Just a teensy bit early then your claim...and certainly earlier than Islam itself. It was also used widely in Jewish texts and in jewelry as early as 10th century BCE. An interesting point that seems to have escaped you: "Suleiman" is an Arabicized version of "Solomon", the Jewish king who was son of King David, the supposed source of the Shield. It's simply another thing picked up by Islam to claim as its own.
33. BIBLE

35. surprise how many thing come out if..
Anna Maria Sedda ,   Italy   (09.12.10)
we try to burn a koran...Stars of Davids in Koran books,Jesus,Ghandi,Che Guevara,and muslims telling "they conquer them all". I guess they are confused ..But burning a koran will bring rubbish out of Islamic "minestrone",an Italian soup where you can put all you want inside...

37. 28
zionist forever   (09.12.10)
the Magen David is the symbol that was supposed to have been on the shield of King David. The name itself means Davids shield. ( that was long before islam ) In Europe couple of hundred yeas ago long before the zionism the Magen David was adopted as some kind of jewish symbol. Its because the symbol had become seen as some kind of holy symbol for jews of diaspora jews that the zionists adopted it as their own symbol because unlike the cross & crescent moon judaism has no symbol and the zionists needed a symbol so they adopted the Magen David, Alot of jewish things have been adopted by islam and judaism has been around alot longer than islam has.
38. Satanic book?

39. Mohammed's Jerwish scribes
Hal ,   Usa   (09.13.10)
Mohammed was widely believed to be illiterate and as a result needed scribes to write down his thoughts that formed the basis for the early Koran. In that time, the Jewish scribes were known for being the most meticulous. Since Mohammed could not read or write and did not know what the Bible's literature was, these scribes were thought to have intentionally wrote biblical inaccuracies into the Koran as secret message to the Jews of Arabia to not be influenced by the dictates of this new faith that at the time was forcing Jews to convert or die.
40. Edin
J Coghlan ,   Wuxi, China   (12.20.10)
OK. Lets go way back to how Edin should be spelt. Only if you take it through Hebrew shoudl it be spelt Eden. It was in former Mesopotamia, far end near India, only thousands of years before. So, knowing this, you accept that Judaism is pretty much in most Christian and some not so- Christian religions. This post in no way denounces any of them. Only recently did the letter I get added to the Jewish Alphabet. Ergo E instead of I in every Bible etc. taken from Torah and before.
