1. Mr Abbas
Galut ,   Selah   (12.24.10)
The Lord Jesus always extends his hand for those willing to accept what he did on the cross for them... but he will not force anyone...

5. Christians in Bethlehem
Madeleine ,   Israel   (12.25.10)
"We are seekers of peace in the path of Jesus," says Abbas. That's a joke! The Moslems are directly resposnible for driving out most of the town's population over the years. Now he seeks peace in the path of Jesus. If only the West knew what these frauds say in Arabic to their own people.
6. Bethlehem and Jerusalem
Salma ,   Palestine   (12.25.10)
The capital of the Christian world and the capital of the Islamic world are in Palestine, how proud we are : ) from the little town of Bethlehem, Merry Christmas, and may it be a merrier new year.
7. Abbas is changed
Seppo ,   Finland   (12.25.10)
Finally he promised to change the texts in all school books and TV programs. Tens of years the spelling has been "hate Jews and kill them" He promised to change them "Love Jews and never kill them. He also promised to tell the Jerusalem history with Jesus words, Jerusalem belonging to the Jews. The last part is easy because also Koran confirms that Israel belongs to Jews to govern.
8. Excuse me, I meant Rome and Mecca.
Salma ,   Palestine   (12.25.10)
Sometimes I get carried away with my own propaganda : )
9.  Salma #7
Non-Jew ,   England   (12.25.10)
Not just sure how you worked that one out, Salma: I thought the 'capital' of the islamic world was Mecca - last time I looked, that was not in Israel, WB, Gaza or Jordan..... Please explain your statement.
10. #8 he he he !
Salma ,   Palestine   (12.25.10)
No FAKE salma I meant Bethlehem and Jerusalem ;P
11. What's Abbas doing in Bethlehem?
andy prigge ,   orangeville canada   (12.25.10)
Here's a passage out of Daniel 8:25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify [himself] in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.
12. Don't remember when Jesus wore a suicide vest
William ,   Israel   (12.25.10)
or shot up civilians in a public gathering. The "Palestinians" are seeking peace more like Muhammed - through deception, coercion, then destruction and cultural genocide. Right now, the "Palestinian" Christians really just want to hear the PA stop terrorism so visitors can return to Bethlehem, and Muslim member of PLO to stop forging deeds to steal Christian land.
13. #6 - actually, both are untrue
William ,   Israel   (12.25.10)
There is no political capital of Christianity, only a spiritual one, and Christians do not seek anything more than freedom to visit and worship. Islam has no capital in the area. Their capital is Mecca, both spiritual and political. Perhaps you need a visit to the Hajj to reaffirm what every other Muslim already knows and is taught.
14. Abbas/PA/Hamas Hate Jesus, the Jew
Linda Rivera ,   New York, USA   (12.25.10)
If Jesus had been born in our time period, from the time Jesus' mother carried Jesus in her womb, Jesus would have been targeted for murder by the Islamo Fascists for being a Jew living in his homeland of Israel. There is no mercy for Jewish mothers and Jewish children: The Palestinian Authority hailed as heroes the terrorists who brutally murdered defenseless 8 months pregnant Jewish mother, Tali Hatuel, and 4 little daughters in Gush Katif in May 2004.
15. Hypocrite! Islamo Fascists Tore Up Bibles for Toilet Paper
Linda Rivera ,   New York, USA   (12.25.10)
In a massive victory for Islam, against their will, Arab Christians were cruelly placed under brutal occupation of PLO/Palestinian Authority. In the filthy Islamic Invasion of Church of Nativity in Bethlehem, Judea, Muslims tore up Bibles for toilet paper. Christian majority towns, Bethlehem & Nazareth are now majority Muslim - terrified Christians were driven out by cruel Islamic persecution. Many Bethlehem Christians' homes and land were stolen by Muslims. The Christians who remain, live in constant fear. US/EU/UN are silent about the suffering and terrible persecution of Jews, Christians, Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists and other non-Muslims, by Islam. Muslim violence against Buddhists in Thailand's southern provinces has now claimed more than 3,500 lives. (Daily Star-Beirut-12/7/2009)
