Treatment of Israel

"Religion of peace" is a phrase often used to describe Islam. Unfortunately, this appears to be nothing more than a politically correct way of maintaining tolerance in America amidst reports of worldwide Muslim terrorist attacks. The Koran, however, says that Jews and Christians are no friend of Allah and are to be killed wherever they are found.
This attitude is taken literally by radical Muslims whose hatred of Israel continues to make news as it has for 60 years. For example, on March 6th, Palestinian gunmen initiated an attack upon entering the library of a Jerusalem rabbinical seminary, opening fire on an evening study group. The attack took the life of 8 people including Rabbi Abba Leiter's nephew.
Rabbi Abba Leiter is a long-time friend of Crosstalk, and he joined Vic Eliason to discuss this latest attack, as well as other aspects of the ongoing Arab-Israeli conflict.
