Christmas in Modern Bethlehem.

    Tonight and tomorrow, when you're celebrating the birth of Christ, take a minute to think about all the Christians in towns like Bethlehem and Jericho who are being denied basic human rights and are being ethnically cleansed from their lands by a foreign occupier. I hope everyone in Bethlehem, Ramallah, Hebron, Jericho and the rest of the West Bank and Gaza have a safe, peaceful Christmas free from harassment and brutality.

    The picture below:
    A Palestinian girl wearing traditional clothes smiles during Christmas celebrations at the Church of the Nativity in the West Bank biblical town of Bethlehem on Dec. 24, 2012.

    Hopefully she keeps smiling for the rest of the holidays.

    The Palestinians (who are both Muslims and Christians) and the orthodox Jews of the world are all directly descended from Abraham.

    Many Orthodox Jews support the Palestinians and do not support the current Israeli occupation which they classify as Zionism.

    Nothing is ever as simple as people think ... this is a real 'eye opener'!!!

    I didn't mention judaism. I just pointed out that tonight while christians all over the world celebrate the birth of Christ, Thousands of Christians are being denied basic human rights and being brutally oppressed by a fireign occupier, in the very town Christ was born in. And we Christians lucky enough to have those rights and our freedom should spare them a thought and pray they have a peaceful, happy christmas full of smiles like that on the girl above.

    Israel =/= Judaism
