(IsraelNN.com) About 1,000 Christian Arabs flee Arab-dominated areas because of Arab terrorism and harassment, according to Reuters News Agency. Examples were cited of Moslems beating up Christians, uprooting their olive trees and scrawling graffiti that show nuns being raped.
Hardest hit has been the Christian community of Bethlehem where tourism has declined since Arabs began the Oslo War attack against Israel. "If the situation continues, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and the Church of the Nativity will become cold, empty museums," said Samir Qumsieh, a Palestinian-Christian businessman.
What can I say? Bethlehem just isn’t what it use to be. What would be interesting to note; is how many claims have been received by Canadian immigration authorities from Christians claiming refugee status on the grounds of religious persecution, and whether or not these claims were allowed.
