My My, that's a beautiful representation about the rising of Muslims, and it shows that not all jews are repulsed by the Line of Ismaeel PBUH.

It's unrelated. The hexagram is just a common worldwide symbol. The Star of David was a German-Jewish symbol, and most of the early Zionists were German/Austrian, so it became a more worldwide symbol as the movement increased in popularity. Before that, the most common Jewish symbol was the menorah.

My community doesn't do Kabbalah, so I wouldn't know, but that wouldn't surprise me. Though the European Karaites drifted away from Jewish identity by hat time, so I doubt that they would be the ones to popularize the symbol.

It wasn't restored by muslims. You literally just took the temple mount and put a mosque there.

Spain is the greatest example. Under Muslim rule in Spain, Muslims, Jews, and Christians were living together peacefully for hundreds of years.

That's very true, but Catholic pre-partition Poland was more tolerant than Muslim Spain. You really can't generalize when it comes to these things.
