Scott Adams tells you how the Middle East is a mental problem, not a real estate problem. With real coffee.https://www.pscp.tv/w/bcmT-zExODgwMjU5fDF5cEpkbWdMdk1SeFeIRxWoejiVxF4TZG7gnCJnMtIDuUB5Xfb6_AKvQHpspQ== …

Genesis 15:18 "On that day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, "To your descendants I have given this land, From the river of Egypt as far as the great river, the river Euphrates..." Problem is, both Jews and Arabs claim descent from Abram/Abraham. 1/2

OK, here's Quran 2:124 (http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A2002.02.0003%3Asura%3D2%3Averse%3D124 …): "And when his Lord tried Ibrahim with certain words, he fulfilled them. He said: Surely I will make you an Imam of men. Ibrahim said: And of my offspring? My covenant does not include the unjust, said He."

I also found this: "The Qur’ān, Chosen People and Holy Land" by Seth Ward (http://www.uwyo.edu/sward/articles/ward-quranonisrael-boullatavol.htm …). I won't try to summarize, recommend you read it yourself.
