The German narrative revolves heavily around creating some idea of a shared “Judeo-Christian” cultural history in opposition to the “Islamization” by evil Arabs. It goes as far as trying to shif the blame for the holocaust and German antisemitism onto Arabs, ignoring the millenia of christian antisemitism in Europe and the prosperity and safety of Jews under muslim rule during the same time.
One of the core narratives of Israel is the claim they are coming back to land supposedly theirs and stolen from them by the Palestinians. But the reality is that the people never left. They became Christian and later Muslim, some stayed Jews.
Jesus is irrelevant to this discussion.
I disagree.
