The first thing that the likes of the ignorant Senator Ted Cruz should understand is that Iran is Persian not Arab, and represents an independent civilization going back to the times of ancient Greece. And that Islam is a religion not an ethnicity, as is Judaism. He also needs to go re-read his Bible, specifically Genesis 12:1-3 which says:
Then the LORD said to Abram, “Leave your country, your kindred, and your father’s household, and go to the land I will show you. I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you; and all the families of the earth will be blessed through you.”
This is Abram, the father of the three great Abrahamic religions; Islam, Christianity and Judaism. Israel is never mentioned, and it also very specifically states that “all the families of the earth will be blessed through you”. To misquote the Bible, explicitly misrepresenting the stated words of the Christian God, is to be a heretic. Ted Cruz should be reminded that he was elected to serve Americans, not to serve a foreign power.
