Understanding the Gaza war. Are Jews and Arabs related?
Both Jews and Arabs are descendants of Abraham. So, why do they hate each other?
As the story goes, Abraham's wife, Sarah, was barren. Abraham was already 86 years old
and he begged God to give him children. Sarah told Abraham: "Why don't you take our servant Hagar?"
Hagar, who was an Arab, gave birth to Ismail. Soon after, God gave Abraham a son through his wife Sarah.
The kid was named Isaac. The two boys did not get along. Hagar and Ismail were sent away to live apart from
the family. The descendants of Isaac and those of Ismail are at war till today.
