God said to Abraham: Kill me a son. Homeland and the Bible.

Spoiler again here but just a quick note on Season 1 of "Homeland": in previous post I speculated on some plot developments that I can foresee, one of which, I suspect, will be a revelation that the terrorists arranged the bombing that killed Abu Nazir's son, Isa - a death that was blamed on the U.S. and that supposedly leads Sgt Brody to "turn" away from the U.S. and toward Al Qaeda. I noted that this may be an enactment of the sacrifice of Isaac - which, if I'm not mistaken, Muslims unlike Jews believe actually was carried out. Let me point something out - have others noticed the very names of these characters? The father, Abu (Abraham?) Nazir, and his son, Isa (Isaac)?
