Abraham went against the Lords will by having a son with Agar. He did not believe the Lord that Sarai(Sara)would become with child (to old). They did not want to wait. The Lord said there would be enmity between the two (Arabs & Israel) for ever. So we can thank Abraham & Sara for what is going on now.

Yes, exactly right. Only by Abrahams repeated cries for mercy did God give Ismael the “worldly” nation.
I have often thought that the 1/3 that will be destroyed mention in the Apocolypse refers to the Arab descendents of Ismael.
