Israelites say Moses fulfills Abraham's prophesies.     Some Isrealites and Hebrews fight-- most don't and become Isrealites Remaining Hebrews cry foul.
Christians say Christ fulfills Jewish prophesies.    Some Christians and Jews fight-- most don't and become Christians    Remaining Jews cry foul.
Moslems say Islam fulfills Christian prophesies. Some Christians and Moslems fight -- most don't and become Moslem Remaining Christians cry foul.

Anybody else see a pattern here?

Abraham made no prophecies. God made promises to him, if that is what you are referring to, although they never saw fulfillment under Moses (you might be able to claim they were fulfilled under Joshua but these were not the Messianic prophecies, they were promises made regarding the land).

The prophets came after Moses and foretold of the Messiah. Christians see fulfillment of these prophecies in Jesus Christ. There are no prophecies for Islam to fulfill as the only prophecies made in the New Testament deal with the end times, not a future prophet.

And no, most Israelites did not become Christians, and most Christians did not become Muslims. Where on Earth did you get your info?

There's 2 Billion Christians and only 1.3 billion Muslims so your a little off. And the Koran changes a lot of the old testament and really screws up the life of Jesus. Christians don't change a thing of the old testament.
