(IsraelNN.com) According to reports in the Asharq al-Awsat daily newspaper, an Egyptian scholar, Dr. Abd-al-Rahman Reihan, claims that archaeological evidence in Dahab in the Sinai Peninsula shows that the Star of David, traditionally thought to be a Jewish symbol, is actually Muslim. Reihan claims that several incidences of the Star of David occur as a decoration in Muslim archaeological sites across the Sinai during the Fatimid/early Crusader period (969-1187).

Reihan has previously claimed that the menorah (another traditional Jewish symbol) is in fact a Roman invention from the times of the Emperor Titus.

Jewish scholars have dated the earliest archaeogical evidence to a figure named Yeshayahu ben Asayahu in early 7th century from the city of Sidon, in modern-day Lebanon.

Another reason to render Islam extinct.

Actually the “Star of David” never had anything to do with David. Its origin is in Egypt, long before there were any muslims.

LOL...

Let’s bow down to Obambi, Our Blessed Messiah and all his Muslim followers.

" In 922 B.C. when Solomon married the daughter of Pharoah, he became involved in Egyptian idol worship and went into magic, and witchcraft. Solomon built an altar to Ashtoreth and Moloch, and the six-pointed star, the chief symbol of human sacrifices in magic and witchcraft circles, came to be called the Seal of Solomon."

Exactly!

For those of us with big hands, it really works well ;o)

Someday it will be extinct.

Where are all the Jewish friendly star of David’s that the Muzzies have used over the years..... like the ones that Hitler used. Ya right. They now lay claim to it.

‘Star of David Stolen from Muslims’

That must mean muslims are Jewish and Jews are muslim.

I believe the “full moon” was invented not BY muslime, but FOR them. I’ve got one I’d like to show them ...

[IronJack]

Doesn’t the menorah go back to the Children of Israel, and the yearly rememberance of Passover?

No, the monorah celebrates the "Festival of Lights," otherwise known as Hanukah.

[forkinsocket]

Actually, I’ve heard from several Jews that the star of David is not our ancient symbol & should be replaced by the menorah. I like the star & I want to keep it, though.

Sidon has a shrine to Zbulun that’s been recently renovated.

Muslim Scholar = oxymoron

LOL

[EagleandLiberty]

The next thing they will say is that they invented God.

No they would say they invented Allah

What fools.

TRUE!!

If there is no image of Mad Mo (for various reasons - all destroyed, never made, MO never existed, etc.), how in the world does anyone know that a cartoonist's drawing is an actual image of Mad Mo?

Daft it is.
