<roll eyes> I'll add it to the list of things you can't be expected to
deliver.
In a discussion which began with the WTC attacks, Candice mentioned some
quotations from the Quran. She asked where there were similar passages in
the OT.
I cited similar passages, and cited the fact rabbis had cited them to
justify Sharon's killing of Palestinians in specific. *That's* the
connection between the Bronze Age and today, and made not by me, but some
people who I'm sure would love to hear from you about their lightly veiled
anti-Semeticism.
