	I find myself standing in the first place to speak out against a
	Bigot who claims to be MG from Cardiff for his attacks on the
	Palestinian people and the Christian Arabs. 

	Now I find myself standing to speak out against another bigot by
	the name of Aziz Faris from Australia. The Bigotry of MG was
	aimed at any body who is an Arab and does not believe in the
	religion of Khomeinism being it Sunni Muslim Araba or Arab
	Christians.

	I find the remarks of Aziz Faris as bigoted as MG because he is
	attacking Islam and Arab History. They are both Bigots and
	deserve condemnation.

	I disagree with you that Christian Arabs are looking at the
	West. The people I know and worked with are more proud to be
	Arabs than any bpody else. I guess you are speaking about your
	own feelings and only yours.

	Islam created by the Jews??? What abigit you are. This reveals
	the bigotry and hatred you haver for Islam. If you ever study
	the texts of Islam you will see how much criticism and attacks
	on the Jewish theology in Islam.

	If you really intended this tpo M G you could have sent it
	direct to him.  You know his addres.

	There are many Arab Christians who have converted to Islam. For
	your knowledge this did not happen during the rule of Prophet
	Muhammad but rather after his death. 

	This revaels your ignorance about Islam and Arabic history.
	People like you open the door wide for Bigots like M G to attack
	other people.

	I find no difference between you and the Bigot M G. You believe 
	in Christian Glory and he believes in Khomeinist Glory, both of
	you are bigots. Neither Christianity nor any other religion can
	bring glory to us, we the people who make the difference. 

	If you want to see poverty and sufferings in non-Muslim
	countries have a trip to the Philippines or South America.
	
	Yes there was past glories for our old nations in the Mideat
	and one of them was under Islamic rule. This does not mean that
	Islam have the solution. It is the people who carry Islam or any
	other religion who make the difference.
