No offense taken. I've been called worse... but I'm not familiar with the term "Abrahamic religion". Abraham was an individual who had a relationship with God, which to my knowledge (or in my ignorance) was never characterized as Judiasm or Christianity or Islamic... because none of those religions yet existed.

The connection between Arabs and Jews is genetic. Abraham was the literal father of both. There is no genetic connection between Abraham and Islam, other than the fact that it was conceived and embraced by a distant offspring of Ishmael. Islam is a religion conceived by a dessert pirate (not my opinion, historical fact) who started off wanting to be accepted by the Jews, was rejected, and as they say the rest is history.
