Is This the Future of Jewish-Muslim Relations?
From the UK, an incredible success story, as reported in the UK's Independent:
The Jewish school where half the pupils are MuslimRead the fascinating article in full here.
King David, in Birmingham, is a state primary where the children learn Hebrew, recite Jewish prayers, eat kosher food and wave Israeli flags. So how come the majority of pupils are followers of Islam?
... half the 247 pupils at the 40-year-old local authority-supported school are Muslim, and apparently the Muslim parents go through all sorts of hoops, including moving into the school's catchment area, to get their children into King David to learn Hebrew, wave Israeli flags on independence day and hang out with the people some would have us believe that they hate more than anyone in the world.
In some ways, this is no different from Israel, the Jewish State that has over one million Muslim Arabs among its six million population.
Two examples proving the point that - provided they are willing to do so - Muslims have no problems or impediments to living happily within a Jewish environment.

Hi.
I am Javier, the founder of Trendirama.com, a community of online amateur writers. We write about the future of everything, and I would like to invite you guys to write an article on the Trendirama.com website, perhaps "The future of search/google" or whatever you are passionate about? It is up to you, you choose the subject.
You would get a link back when you link to your own article, if you wish.
You can even re-use some of what you have here, in the last part of the article, "your view and comments". That would save you time and still be interesting for readers.
And yes, I know you don't have time. None of us do...;)
Failing that, if you like the project and you can help me to promote it and find writers/readers -even if you don't write- it would be great.
By making this valuable information available online for free, I truly believe we are helping to make the world a better place.
And you could do your bit for the world too.
Your help is appreciated, and if you let me know your contribution, you'll be rewarded appropriately in due time. If you link to us or mention us, we can link you back too.
You can even use our valuable articles on your websites, provided that you link back. Any better offer than that?! :)
Look forward to hearing from you or read your article in Trendirama! Join us!
Best regards
Javier Marti
